I found this on sale at Bodgers of Ilford (a gem of a store, despite its unappealing name.) They do some really individual items here, interesting things I've never found in more conventional department stores.
This little bolero, from the Mylene Klass range, was only a tenner.
I love the ruched detailing on the shoulder and, unlike the model, I like to pull my shrugs skin tight. Well, I would- slutbox supreme is the way to go!
I'm also adoring this weird and wonderful Queen of Hearts flat teapot, reduced from £25 to £12.50. This definitely looks like something the Mad Hatter would utilize at one of his parties! I'm not one to generally bother making tea in a pot but am tempted to buy this as it will go perfectly with my kitchen decor and will serve as an ornament at worst.
Or, maybe I'll start behaving like a lady and this will inspire me to make tea properly...
(An update on the above- my SuperDean treated me and it was reduced even further, to £6.25...result!)
When I visited the Stranger's Hall, a museum in Norwich, the Mad Hatter was hosting his tea party in the garden...
And when I visited Margate, we had to pop into The Mad Hatter's Tea Rooms for a cup of coffee...
It appears that there are people in this world who are odder than I am!!!!
I really liked this purple bolero. It is looking cool. Good to know about this tea party. Loved that hearts flat teapot. Want to have something really amazing for my tea party that will soon host at one of San Francisco event venues. Want to make it memorable for all.
