Team up with some crisp white plimsolls and you’d be good to go!" ![]() "I absolutely loved this mother of pearl necklace, the Art Deco shaped pieces sewn onto the delicate lace. A very charming piece!" ![]() "How totally fabulous are these tan leather flares and so this season with the 70s vibe!

This is super fun and would brighten any dull days at the office! I’d like to see this clashed with tweed or a bit of corduroy for the ultimate eclectic English gentry look!" Cushion cover, £4 from Vintage Surprises. "Floral embroidery and beading combined on this super sized cushion cover!" ![]() "Oh my – these shoes are simply perfect!

What a great way to store left over coins in style - gone are the days of using an old Bells whisky bottle!" ![]() "They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover – it was hard not to with these Russian books.
