I get in an age where some of my friends get married. What I have not realised being invited to those individual romantic weddings, I always need to get an new dress, shoes, bag etc. This can be stressful in London, especially if you do not really have the budget to go mad with it.
There is one place where my friend and I rock up, this is the Fara Charity Shop on New Kingsland Road. This place has stock over tow floors where you can find good bargains for their designer selection.I spend ages trying on different dresses. They had a beautiful long Ralph Lauren vintage dress and proper cashmere scarves as well as well cut jackets. Taming myself I opted for the Karen Millen dress finally, a designer where I always find squeezing myself into there very tight fitted frocks. But i managed somehow - (except forgetting to hold on my breath in the wedding photoshoot).
Did I ever left the shop that day? After the shopkeeper told me several times over in a polite manner they are closing now. What I have is the shopping mania - I can't help myself. read more
