WELL well well. Another pair of designer shoes which fit! WOOO. But again, I cannot walk in them. So they are for sale for all our lovely big footed lady customers!
(Come on shoe gods....some designer flat shoes would be lovely thank you....)
These are a very classic style from Gucci, with velvet uppers with a leather and metal linked G details.
Size 7 1/2 (eur 40 1/2) the heel is 3 inches high.
£60
In very good condition, obviously, but they do need re heeling on the left shoe.
Gucci is the biggest selling Italian brand, founded by Guccio Gucci in Florence in 1921. The luxury goods are never really out of fashion, so grab these while you can, as we don't think they will stick about for long!!

Begging, begging yoooou - for some Handbags...
Good morning to you all. Hope you are well. Us? Oh we are OK thank you very much. You look lovely today.
Yes we are schmoozing you all as we are on the beg again. Last week we had some great sales of Handbags and now we have half empty shelves!
If, like me, you have a bag for every day of the week and then some and there are some buried in those deep dark wardrobe recesses, and while the weather is rainy and yuck if you have a sort out and decide to part with some, please please please bring them in to us here at Brook Green.
Clutch bags, Beaded evening bags, Shopper style bags, Shoulder bags and Tote bags.
Anything and everything bag related - but not suitcases for the moment as we have many!
(Oh and all you UK taxpayers - if you wouldn't mind signing up to Gift Aid that would be lovely too.)
Bye for now

Mirror, Mirror...
...blah blah is my face the best of all?!
Well this one may not talk back and be slightly evil, but it is a mirror all the same.
A vanity mirror (or in 'normal' terms, a hand mirror), which is old and fab and silver.
S.B and S is the hallmark here, and from our research it is S. Blanckensee & Son.
Founded in Brisol in 1826 by Solomon Blanckensee. They moved to Birmingham soon after. Solomon's son Aaron joined the firm in 1865, and took over when his father retired in 1874.
The hallmark also tells us that this mirror was made up Birmingham way in 1923.
The hand mirror has been dropped (or thrown..?!) as there is a dent in it. But I think it makes it more interesting.
So this 90 year old mirror could be yours for £35.
And as much as the Disney Wicked Queen was evil, she did look blooming amazing in her purple robes...

Cool Coral
It is still winter but of course the colours for the Spring/Summer clothing collections are trickling out. Although we are never really surprised - Pastel in Spring and Neon in Summer..
Getting in there just as early as the big fashion houses, we have these 2 outfits showing the pastel and neutral Spring palette.
Model one - Ladylike Cream Lace
This lovely lace dress is by Zara.
Size 10 (eur 38) £10
and it is new with tags still attached.
We have added a thick coral coloured belt (trimmed in black patent leather) from Reiss £10
along with a faux leather Jacket from Topshop Tall range.
Size 14 (eur 42) £30
Model two - Navy and Coral
We have come over all designery (is that even a word?! It is now) on this one.
Plus as per our way of working they have been reduced now! Bargain!
The top is be Philosophy by Alberta Ferretti and it is a silk and wool and cashmere mix.
Size 8 (eur 36)
£40 £24
The skirt is a beautiful Miss Valentino by Valentino sequined up piece.
Size 16 (eur 44)
Small splits up the sides along with these sprays of squin and beads, just adds a little something to a rather simply cut skirt.
£40 £19
The necklace is a Dior costume piece £10 and the belt (not designer...) is £4 but we think it just ties in the whole outfit nicely, and shows off the flared peplum effect of the top.
Coral seems to go with everything!
