Sadly, I have a soft spot for a copious flared trouser ... I present my 30 inch Oxford Bags with triple crown pockets. Never worn on days with more than a gentle breeze 🤣

The weather is awful , grey , cold and raining ...but there is always a little ray of sunshine in the gloom, from the small things that bring joy. So here's to looking forward to the sunshine returning , and long cool drinks on a hot afternoon from these charming 1950s Atomic highball glasses .
