Floral Camouflage

Can ya see it yet?
I bought this tote bag today, apparently it's made out of curtains. But haven't I seen this print before?! Why yes, a vintage Miss Selfridge top I found in another chazzer last summer. What are the chances?

Oh the fatigue.

Ma's Baking Frenzy.

Apple scones and apple & blackberry pie. Oh Ma, you do spoil us.

Favourites with a story...

Both from Motel, a vintage top... originally thought to be a scarf until I found the head and arm holes. And a tiny vintage red satchel, found whilst sorting through the sale bags. Absolute treats.

Boardwalk Empire Intro...

As far as I got... until the Trojans got me! That'll learn me.


What struck me was the uncanny likeness to Magritte's The Son of Man work. The now iconic motif of the dark sillouette of a bowler hat-wearing, suited and booted middle class gent is clearly an aesthetic influence even though it wouldn't have been executed until a good 30 years after the series is set. So why Magritte? I'll tell you once I actually get a chance to watch an episode. But it already intrigues me.

Country Pub

Blissful

One of the oldest pubs in the country, dating back to the 14th Century. It was even visited by Samuel Pepys!
