THRIFT SHOPPING AND A PARTY

 

Came  across a charity shop having a 99cent sale. 5 items for $5.

 Sweet 1970's dress with a faked  sweater vest.


                               Yellow rain coat.


 This one fits me. I'll have to steam out the wrinkles and put some sort of buttons on it.


 Can't find any information on this company. There's no other label. I like the pattern. The 5th item is a tux shirt with French cuffs. When I see tux shirts at charity shops I always buy them. We go through them like crazy for shows.


The party was a Seasonal party (early Christmas) that the university President and his wife hosted

 Lots of yummy desserts and hot chocolate and coffee.


 And a photo booth! We love the third one, we are so grown up!







 I found these at World Market. Dr. Who's favorite cookie, so I couldn't pass them up.


And I got an early birthday  gift. Which I'm going to start playing right now!

    1. My very first baby photo was my Mom holding me up to the camera in a photo booth. You see me and her hands.

  2. That 70s frock is really sweet! I had no idea Dr Who ate Jammy Dodgers - I haven't watched it since Christopher Eccleston left - I lost interest after that. Jammy Dodgers are everywhere here, even in Poundland. x
