Another Frau found this bag a while ago-it’s not a Moschino it’s an independent designer can’t remember the name. Still v speedy as I googled at the time.

Del Monte sold 3 extra tins of pineapples.

Those two pairs of trousers are Vivienne Westwood and SO ARE THESE. That's three pairs. There's a pair of these selling for £180 second hand here https://www.depop.com/products/lilacliar-extremely-rare-vivienne-westwood-plaid/ so they must have been really spenny new. Also this shirt looks like a bin bag but is likely pricey AF. Ditto shoes.

I do have a question about wallpaper, having never used it. Is £40 expensive for wallpaper, or is the shock placed on the fact that she's spent £40+ on various rolls of wallpaper that she's never used?
£40 is sort of mid-range, but more than about 90% of the population would spend. Jack's quite a Farrow & Ball fan, isn't she, so she could have gone for their Enigma print at £120 a roll: https://www.farrow-ball.com/en-gb/wallpaper/enigma?sku=5051836612115

I guess we should just thank our lucky stars she hasn't discovered Timorous Beasties yet, where their wallpaper starts at about £80 per roll and goes up to around £160 a metre! (But they do have some lovely things: https://www.timorousbeasties.com/category/wallcoverings )

The amount of ridiculous pink accessories there. Pink BIN BAGS FFS.
Truly the mark of poverty is when you can colour co-ordinate the many items in your kitchen.


P. S I hate that bin. It should have a swing or pedal lid. What Jack has as an old precursor to the wheelie bin.

She claimed during the Great Thread 31 Chaos that she prints off all the threads. If that is true then we must occupy a whole wing of the Shitty Bungalow by now.
Jack now that you're decluttering, I know many of the canal would absolutely be willing to take a hardback paper copy of these threads off your hands for some bedtime reading (I call dibs on the "Jack as bowls" thread and georgia church suppers)

Anyone else spent way too much of their day playing detective like

Oh, well done, dear heart! I found that pic in the wee smol hours; couldn't find the traazers, but knew them to be VW (as is the shirt).
Regrettably, in a crowded field, it was the shoes that prevented me from getting back to sleep.

Is there a slight "sample-sale" honk to some of the Westwood? Particularly the 2014 mismatched "I'm a tweenie" trews.

Found a Viv (RIP) traazer pic from August 2019, from Instagram by the photographer of an Observer Food Monthly shoot.



Also found 2 photos that are PROOF that she HAS been to Asda HQ (or a studio or a big store kitchen) and she HAS volunteered at a food bank (is that a Burberry scarf?)
