Afternoon of Shopping with Sherry – Volume IV

My third mini instalment of shopping with me as a thrifting expedition…

I started off in a shop, and it just made me hungry to look at all of these chocolates in their fancy colours:

I start off in dresses because it’s my favourite:

I know this brand actually, I think I owned an item from them once, or wanted to buy one, but found it very expensive..

I always thought Catherine Malandrino was an expensive brand but it is not, really….. I thought it was a designer brand but it turns out she does mass-market stuff, along the lines of Leith, Halogen, or other brands like that.. A little above Banana-Republic level.

And for dinner, it started as this:
