Burtons....lots of Burtons.

Ties are really the only thing I ever buy in charity shops. There's a nice one in British Heart Foundations store at the moment which i think i might buy. Polyester, but it's a nice stripe and made in the UK so i might as well.

Ah yes, the ubiquitous fake RL.  Sadly, RL is overexposed in the market, their button downs, once a status symbol and a sign of being from an immaculate seemingly disinterested elite of extreme wealth has long gone.  Remember when RL brought out the cheap and cheery Chaps label that was being sold at the equivalent level of George at ASDA? Scary, frightening, I lost my faith, there and then.

Sadly, here in Holland, the second hand shops seem to be stocked by flowery dresses and hats that my nan would have worn to go and watch Brief Encounter.  I've never seen anything worthwhile.

2 pairs of deadstock, plain bottle green socks. By the looks of the label they're from the 1970s. 1 euro 50.

Oddly, lots of dinner suits. Like a bloody symphony orchestra decide to pack it in. Otherwise nothing inspiring. The days when clothing had a real value and was passed on are largely gone. Most of what I see is tired cotton tat.
