No.314

Call me a pessimist, (the principles of "The Secret" are a tad too sickeningly positive for my cynical, doom and gloom ways) but I had come to the bitter conclusion that I was to never adopt a used but not abused second hand goody, of designer lineage and at an all important bargain price. No! Cheap will not suffice,  Im talking blow your own horn cheap followed by little jig that even a dyspraxic child would envy. Indeed, the G-D's have praised my patience (of what little I have... and whoever said patience is a virtue is a tease). Amongst all the shameful and naaaasty bric-a-brac displayed within an Oxfam store, a beauty glistened in all its chestnut leathery glory and at £4 - $5.64 (I tell no lie), this Yves Saint Laurent wallet is mine, all mine! Ok... Its a tad feminine but I couldn't resist its goodness... Please do share, any charity shop goodies you beauties have claimed.

ahah wow, £4! I don't think I've had a vintage find that good...ever. Well, I found a Victorian watch key on Portobello Road for a tenth of its typical value but that's hardly as covetable an item.
