Bag charm for zero dollars

I do enjoy finding secondary usages for my H items, so I was happy to discover what a fabulous bag charm my key ring makes, also perfectly picking up on the colors of my Belles de Mexique Gavroche. In keeping with the 'thrift theme' of today's post, wearing a tank top from Zara, a cardie from Mexx and corduroy jeans from Somewhere.

usually I have my car key attached to this fabulous little bit of 'rose shocking' chèvre..

.. but today, voilà! The bag charm for zero dollars.

  6. So lovely as always, wearing one of my and now my DD's favorite gavroches. I'm going to find one for her in the black. Mai Tai - I used to be able to search on your site - I'm trying to find the post where you are wearing a long satin? skirt w black shirt for a gala idea I am to attend. Can you help direct me to the post?

    So many thanks for so many things!

  7. Dear Maisie, many thanks for your sweet comment. I have changed the layout of the blog slightly, the search box is now in the top left corner, next to the Blogger logo. Please let me know if it does not work as well as before. Here is the link for the picture you are looking for. If the link does not work, go to the 'Ode' section, and click Vif Argent Gavroche. Have fun at the Gala! x

  10. Finally "hunted down" my SA (who had been busy at Paris) and told him to try his best to get me one in either orange or fuchsia (whichever he gets first). hugs to you, HM.
