Remember Part 2 - We haven't forgotten...Yet!

So yes I know, we still have some items mentioned to show off to you. You know the ones mentioned in this blog.

Hopefully next week a new post about them will be up!

I know we said that before, but as you know, good things come to those who wait! (Plus doing this job, you do get easily distracted!)

Mens Dior Jacket

A lovely pile of men's jackets came in today, mainly from Zara man and Gant, but there were two which interested us most....

The first one was this navy, double breasted, Christian Dior blazer.

A beautiful feeling fabric of 100% Pure New Wool, lined in silk emblazoned with the CD logo.
We have measured it as a 48 UK size - XL
Embellished with amazing gold Dior buttons on the sleeves, it is missing one from the front of the jacket though.

Other than the missing button, all is well.
£95
Dry Clean only!

Over a pair of cream chinos, we think this would look great.

Tiny Dior Shoes Donated

I do love it when Dior gets donated. I mean who wouldn't?!

Christian Doir brogue-esque shoes for a lady with tiny feet. (Totally not me then with my size 8 sasqush feet....pah!)
Size 4 (eur 37) these brown shoes have been re soled and are simple and beautifully made.

No damage to them at all. Although I would change up the laces for some neon. But that's because I do love a pop of colour.

Phwoooar for Dior! £70 shoes

Wikipedia tells me that it was "Founded in 1946 by the eponymous designer Christian Dior, today the company designs and retails ready-to-wear, leather goods, fashion accessories, footwear, jewelry, timepieces, fragrance, make-up, and skincare products while also maintaining its tradition as a creator of recognized haute-couture (under the Christian Dior Couture division). " So now you know.

And now you just know that if you tiny feet you can come and spend £70 on them and make everyone jealous of your great taste in shoes.

It's a Boy!

So the Royals have a new king on their hands. Hurrah!

You can't not read about it today, as Kate Middleton gave birth to William's first child yesterday at 4.24pm yesterday.

AND he was a hefty one. 8lbs something or other.
We love a bit of Monarchy madness and this is definitely up there!
People clambouring all over Buckingham Palace gates. What do they expect to see? Still it was a 'party atmostsphere' according to all the papers.

Anyway, we are happy for them, here at Brook Green, but a bit miffed as we have a couple of new designer babygrows in PINK. *rolls eyes*

Baby Dior and Ralph Lauren. £10 each
0-3 months

Although we do have some Vilebrequin swimming trunks £8, which are boys, so Kate and Wills can still pop in for some goodies!

Vintage designer items now in stock!

Sometimes, when I open a bag and pull out amazing things I think to myself "Why would you give this away?!". Definitely had that feeling today!

It is fantastic when we get these donations. What a great thing to do for Trinity Hospice. So this is how today went....
Few bags of stuff donated, nothing out of the ordinary in them, just lovely tops and skirts and dresses and books etc.
Then about 4pm an elderly couple came in.
They explained that Trinity Hospice had looked after a friend of theirs and so when they had a clear out that couldn't think of anything better then to donated the garments to us. 4 bin bags later and I am gasping at everything I pull out of the bags.

It is a who's who of fashion designers.

Chanel, Dior, Givenchy and Bill Gibb.

AMAZING, FANTASTIC and BRILLIANT!
*Squeeee* (Yes we are rather excited about these, in case you hadn't noticed!)

Obviously we shall share the items with you when we can - As soon as possible. Promise.
Time to get our friends in the know on the valuing job....
