I'm not Irish but always go and celebrate St. Patrick's Day anyway- if you can't beat 'em then join 'em, etc. etc!
These are the shoes and this is the top that I'll be wearing later...
The shoes came from Ebay and I can't remember what they cost but it wasn't a lot- somewhere between £9 and £13 would be a good guess.
I designed the top when at the factory in India, on business for one of my jobs.
We showed it to Bay Trading (now, sadly, non-existent) and Jane Norman ( now, sadly, much reduced) but they didn't want it, so it hung in our showroom for AEONS until I saw it being bundled into the charity bag and quickly rescued it. Although it's a sample size 12, it has a shirred back so I can fit into it...just!!!!
My partner (who is of Irish descent and who will be partying with me tonight) calls it my Biarritz top. I believe that's what they used to call this triangular praline chocolate in the Quality Street tin, before renaming it simply, "The Green One."
