The Mod Generation

The Society of Cool

Just thought that I'd start this topic as nobody has [bothered?] to start it yet!

I was in one of my local charity shops today and bought these women's basket-weave, tassel loafers for only $8.50 AUD! Absolutely brill, to say the least! ;-) Now I can wear them with my new trousers from Sportscraft (see link below) and my Ben Sherman boating blazers! They were made by Australian shoe manufacturer Sandler, as part of their "Easy Steps" collection which still exists today. I think these shoes were an absolute find and would make excellent work and leisure (by that I mean dancing) shoes!

I also picked up two of my lay-aways. The first being two pairs of capris trousers - one pair in black and another in navy. Don't let the "capri" style fool you. They actually look like full-length trouser on me. I paid $105 AUD for each pair, instead of $150.

The second lay-away I picked up today was this lovely dress from Target that I purchased on sale a couple of months ago!

Happy shopping my Mod brothers and sisters! Look forward to reading and seeing what you've bought!

Hi Max, born with a plastic spoon in your mouth then?

The additional button holes do look identical to the usual ones, or maybe they were done by a good machinist.Barbara my Wife has added button holes to a couple of shirts (not BS) so I can wear cuff links to add that extra touch.If there were local evening classes in basic needlecraft I'd sign up so I could buttonhole, shorten trousers etc. Sewing buttons back on is the extent of my current abilities.

I am sooooooo pleased with this item!!!

1960s Mary Quant Perfume Ring!!!

Any chance of a picture of it? My missus would love one if it's what I'm thinking of.

Max, this is something that is VERY hard to find, as it is vintage Mary Quant and I was rather surprised at how 'complete' it was WITH the box and with SOME perfume still in it! ;-)

Marc Jacobs do perfume rings too!

Just ordered two knitted long sleeved Gabicci polos, one grey one burgundy for £45 delivered, think that's a great price.

Just won this suit on Ebay. Hope it's as good as it looks when it arfrives

That is a nice find.

Had a Smedley, polo shirt from their outlet turn up today. Excellent !!
