I would love to show you my new dress but I can't load photos since the photo loading has changed. Does anyone know why I can't load?
Does this work?

As Miss Tuppence said, click on the image button, select URL & uncheck the box that's ticked.

Very cute was it on Ebay I was watching one like it if not. I won two from same seller on ebay and was hoping they would be here by the midwest meet up but so far I they have not arrived perhaps they will hit my mailbox right before I drive off.

That's bizarre! I saw the very same brooch at War and Peace in Kent last week and nearly bought it for my friend. So cute!


great find Kate! I wish I had the patience to learn how to follow a knitting pattern properly! (I've only ever made scarves..)

I won this scotty dog brooch on ebay today, I collect things with scotty dogs on them and I thought this one was a bit quirky with the gun!

Kitty Sheridan, how funny! Perhaps it was the same and the seller listed it on ebay... but I suppose there probably are a few kicking about out there! But I like it in a quirky sort of way (I usually don't go for guns and sculls and that sort of thing).

KittyAnneMalloo, ah I am jealous! What a lovely swirl!!

I know - I'm just the worst for taking photos! I'm heading out with my husband tonight so will try to get a decent photo to put up! ;)

I just got promoted at work, so I treated myself to this dress:

I already have the blue version with red flowers, and absolutuely love it... I also recently got this compact on ebay. It's teeny, only 1.5" x 2.5" and matches the dress beautifully. :)

I have a couple pairs of British made shoes--one seems to say "Lillywhites," with a Royal Warrant, and the other are called "Britt Bouncers." Both are rubber soled, and the Lillywhites have a raised emblem on the sole that says "Made in France." They came from a store called "Fenestras." Anyone in the UK familiar with these?

Lillywhites still have stores in the UK. They sell sporting shoes mainly. Fenestrier was a French company and they made a lot of sport shoes too, like golf shoes. Here is a poster that looks like it has the brown shoes on it :) The brown shoes are most likely walking shoes.

Swinggal - great shoes - I love when you buy something vintage and then see it or something very similar in a vintage ad.

I got this lovely satin dress off Etsy - I don't normally go for strapless dresses but I fell in love with this one:
