I live in Cape Town, South Africa and in winter the combination of rain and that dratted south easterly wind means that no brolly can protect you from landing up with an undesired Tina Turner hairdo...those rainhoods would be my total salvation!

Vintagesuburbia said...

Oh my gosh, bullet bra pads. I didn't even know they existed! Although that would explain why the busts of all those 50s women look like that . . .(I am a bit slow on the uptake). I would love to win these lovely prizes, thanks Solanah.
