Fly My Pretties

Half price window day at the expensive charity shop today!  Being a huge fan and collector of the vintage powder compact I've had my eye on 2 compacts in this window but they were bit above my usual budget so I've left them on several occasions but today was the day to swoop in and bag those pretties and bonus being there was another one added :o)

So let me introduce you to the new additions:

Mother of Pearl Melissa compact (look how clean and tidy it is inside with original paper liner! eeee!) This one has been in the window for a few weeks now and was marked at £10 - too rich for me but hey £5 on half price day will do me fine thanks!


This was the new one in the window - again its never been used and has original powder sponge and it was only £1.25! More inner squealing.

And the final pretty, the elderly lady of the group:



Has the previous powder in it (got to love that powder smell) and has been well loved but its still a beautiful compact - especially for £2.50 :o)

These make me happy:


Just a quick post for me today :o)
