Lucky Girl

Mr B came thru' on a flying pit stop yesterday. Left me a weeks worth of dirty washing(!) and repacked his bag with a weeks worth of clean clothing, then scooted off down to London.

In amongst his stuff were some little beauties that he found for me!
A Minnie Mouse-style dress/top.

A rather gorgeous peach Melba print top, which I keep thinking 'oo, that'll be great with...'yellow espadrilles/orange ballerinas/white jeans/white linen trousers/ white Capri pants/white flared skirt/peach linen trousers. All of which already languish in my overflowing collection of clothes!

An extremely pretty necklace. A jigsaw, 1500pieces(!), of the Eiffel Tower.

And, cue big squeals of delight, these amazing boots!

If they are lucky the lads tend to get the daytime of the Friday off, when they are on tour. So Mr B invariably does a trip to Newcastle, which is home to Scorpio Shoes. He told me to have a look at the website to see if there was anything that caught my eye. TUK is a brand that I have a few pairs from, including a pair that I liked and Mr B tracked down in the States, so we know we are OK on the sizing.


The clothing comes from a shop, Big 'n' Beautiful, where Mr B is welcomed like an old friend. He has shopped there for me for years. They are brilliant with helping him with sizes etc and on the one time the size was right, sorted it out via the postal service.

I am very lucky that my man is so happy to shop for me. Either that, or I have got him very well trained!!

  7. Wowza! You are a lucky lady indeed. I'm pretty sure my man will never go shopping for clothing for me. Although I doubt he has your man's fine taste either, so maybe that's okay on my end. Well done Mr B!!
