Peter Pan Committee fabulous clothing SALE

Ladies, here is my fully sequinned, lycra tartan split skirt that I bought some years ago from the Peter Pan Ladies Committee clothing sale. It's from the UK fashion brand Joseph, and probably dates from the 1990s.

"Recent vintage", you might call it!

The famous twice yearly clothing sale is on next week from Wednesday 23 to Friday 25 May 2012 at the Paddington Town Hall, Oxford Street, Paddington, New South Wales.

The Peter Pan Committee, also known as the Black and White Committee, raises money for children's charity Barnardos.

It goes for three days, and on the last day ( which ends at midday on Friday) everything left is half price.

I have found some of my most treasured and amazing garments at the Peter Pan sale.

I thoroughly recommend it, but be aware that sometimes you may walk out with nothing. Other times, you can be incredibly lucky. This can depend a lot on your mood on the day, because poring through racks of clothes can be tiring. Trying on clothes can be a drag too.

If you are not up to it, your chances of zooming in on an amazing find can be minimised.

They also have teenage girls' and children's clothes, sometimes still with tags.

I've been telling my friends about this sale for years, and those who have tried it have not regretted attending.

Invest in your new winter wardrobe and support Barnardos!
