So last Sunday I got up at exactly 5.50am to do a car boot with one of my best buddies, Lisa. I love the atmosphere of them now...and the gems you find too. We sold the general stuff  - books and videos and junk..but my great idea was..to sell fairy cakes!!

And..they all sold! I wish I'd taken some pics but forgot the camera. I made plain ones with icing and dolly mixture on the top, choc chip ones, and raisin ones. The dolly mixture went first so I think I'll be just making those  this Saturday. I might make some cookies and kind of medium size sponges to sell at about £1.50. I sold the fairy cakes at 25p each. I think I made about £7 profit in the end on the cakes but still have some ingredients left over...so I'm aiming for more cakes this week at a bigger profit! Overall, made about £45!!

Anyway, enough about my business ventures for now..will take some photos this week of our cute stall.


I've been buying again....



Black Primark skirt £4.50 - it should have been £10..but i asked and lady said it was in sale at £5 and there should have been a white edged belt with it but it was missing so I got 10% off..didn't want the belt anyway!

An outfit I wore to my Dad's birthday bbq the other week..
old H&M black cardigan (which is now brown) £9.99,
Warehouse top (via Oxfam) £1.99
Topshop black skinny jeans (also now brown) £40
Primark gladiator sandals £10
Vintage bag 50p from car boot (see below)

And this leoapard jacket is the bargain of the week!! Its by Oasis and was only £3.99!! I saw it lying on Oxfams till counter in my size  and asked if it was sold. The guy said no, he was just pricing it up and so I snatched it (literally) and said I'll take it. It's similar to this current Oasis jacket so I am soo happy. I've been wanting one like this Kate Moss one..for about a year now:



This is a cute brown suede effect belt brought from Primrose Hospice for £1 - its hard to see but it has little plaited bits slong the front.
And finally, the black small bag from a car boot for 50p!


I've aslo gone DVD and book crazy again and have recently bought:

- The old Pride and Prejudice DVD £1.50 - Charity Shop
- Love Actually DVD - £1 - Primrose Hospice
- The Libertine DVD - £2 - Car boot
- Charlie and the Chocolate Factory DVD - £2 - Car boot
- And many many random books which I shall try and post a pic of soon.

There's a few more clothes I've bougth which are in the wash as I type so will post another time too.

So all in all, its been a very hectic week this week. We also went for a walk down the canal on Monday - which I sooo should have taken pics of because it was so so so pretty. Next time..next time.. i could even have used the bf's Nikon SLR :( ah well.

I'm going to shut up now and change the background of my blog to another Cath Kidston fabric :)

Love Looby xx
