Hello, Possums!

Dear Bum : What have you done for me lately?

On balance, my bum has been pretty good to me.  Sure, we've had our moments... like, anytime I have attempted to:
  • Purchase jeans;
  • Squeeze into the corner table of a busy restaurant;
  • Perch effortlessly on the middle seat of a  plane; or
  • Wear swimwear of any variety (scratch that, I'm looking at you: thighs)  
But honestly, I'd say overall our relationship is a productive one. This week, having been approached by the shoe savants at Hotter and gifted a curve-friendly Silly Old Sea Dog dress by a lovely new pal... I thought I'd take a moment to reflect on what my bum has been bringing  to the table these previous few years.

Food Review: Once Upon A Tart, 45 King St, Glasgow G1 5RA

From one old tart to another, this is - without doubt - my food-of-any-and-all-types eating fantasy. Since first I cast my eyes over those four magical words: Once. Upon. A. Tart.

Regardless, when the team at The Vintage Kilo Sale asked to pick my kilo-loving brain over a cuppa this week, I used the opportunity to shamelessly re-say a lot of things I have previously said. And here they are! You can see the original article here. As an aside, Oxfam posted a significantly more helpful guide back in 2013, so not only am I wildly repeating myself - I am doing so with old news. Enjoy poppets!

The 7 dresses hauled from my first ever Vintage Kilo Sale for £30. We won't mention the dress 8 fail...
Those of you who know me, have ever read this blog or who have been driven to near-insanity by my relentless twice-daily Instagram posting this week will know: I bloody love vintage kilo sales. The cryptically named Vintage Kilo Sale is an event where vintage goodies are piled up high and sold… ahem… by the kilo (thank God for the sanity of the metric system: a Vintage Pound Sale would be excruciatingly confusing “A POUND OR A POUND?!” – a neo Four Candles skit in the making).
