What I’m wearing…
A few lovely folk have offered alternate Wednesday games to play.
Amy’s playing on my fridge & Fi’s offered “What I’m wearing”. I’m going with what I’m wearing because I LOVE what I’m wearing today. I opped (thrifted) this shirt from St Vinnies in Kew! It’s gorgeous (although the buttons do tend to pop open at their whim). Ah well it’s all foam these days anyway.
The best thing about this shirt is the dialogue that goes along with it…
Friend/Acquaintance/Stranger in the street: “Oooh I love your shirt.”
Me: “Isn’t it fabulous. It was $2 at Vinnies.”
Totally classless I know but I do wear my Op Shopping heart on my sleeve & bargains are like badges of honour.
Finally, how good does my freshly rendered wall look?

Oh heck $2 for that top is awesome! I’d be telling the world! I love shocking people – oh yes, that’s from Vinnies. Oh I found that in a bin. I love the expressions.
But that top – that is fantastic. Super fantastic.
And the newly rendered wall – wow!

also how good is the photo of your shirt? (pretty good)
well, thank you for the peg apron recipe. Im really excited. My family is a doing a handmade chrissy too. I think this will be a present for me. I’ve been particularly good this year.
By the way, I am wearing an op shop find too. But it was $9. do you know that some op shops offer valued customer cards. Then you can get things even for free!

Don’t get render on your lovely shirt, Kirst! You look so cute! And your wall is looking extremely wall-y. In a good way.

That is definitely a lovely shirt…and a true bargain for $2.
I can’t help myself when I get comments on my op shop clothing either… it’s a badge of honour to find a true wearable bargain.

Ah, you already know how much I love that shirt! Smocking, embroidery, what’s not to love.
