The Usual Shop

…is anywhere but the High Street

Twice tweedy

It always seems rather churlish, when at the Art Junky fair, to pass over the crafts, prints, sculpture, hand-made jewellery and other artistic endeavours in favour of the secondhand/vintage clothes stalls, but never mind… Two excellent tweed coats, pictured here hanging to fumigate in the conservatory as they smelled somewhat musty; £15 each. The green one’s a proper country gent special, the grey herringbone a Harris tweed for Burberry (lovely tartan wool lining). Sadly, D decreed that they were both too wide over the shoulders for him, and they look ridiculous on me (I was planning on keeping the Burberry to wear over several thick jumpers), so they’ve gone for rehoming.
