Shirt: vintage
Skirt: Topshop
Cardigan: Topshop
Boots: New Look

I wore this outfit yesterday but didnt get a chance to post it. I fell in love with this shirt last time i went into the vintage store in town. Its a mens XL shirt and only cost me £9 with student discount! The colours are just perfect and i have been looking for a shirt like this for a while to wear with my black skirt. The quality of the photos arent great but i dont know how to make them any better..
My first exam is on wednesday so i have been cramming in revision whenever possible. Good luck to everyone else who has exams and deadlines around this time too!

I guess i have started doing these instead of pick of the week. Do you guys actually like them? I hope so.
I am looking for a chiffon skirt and what better than a vintage one. But i am wondering about maube buying a coloured one instead, i wear too many dark clothes sometimes. I have seen a pretty powder pink one somewhere.. These shoes are gorgeous, but they just so happen to be Gucci and £90. As much as i love them they are a bit too far out of my budget so they will just have to go on the lusting pile. Finally the dress is from Yayer. I wish spring/summer would come faster so i can wear amazing dresses like this easier. Think i will buy it a store it away for warmer weather.

A bit of vintage

Sunday, 21 November 2010


Today i took a morning trip to a vintage fair. Never really been to anything like this before so i was really looking forward to it. There were several stalls in a hotel in town. It was quite dark inside hence the quality of the photos + the fact i had to ask to take photos cause no one else was, so whenever i took one everyone looked! They were some fabulous pieces and i could have bought so much. But right now i am a tiny budget what with xmas coming up and all. The fur coats were gorgeous, i nearly bought a flannel shirt, definitely inspired by all the jewelry and the cupcakes were delicious! The woman on the stall let me take some snaps which i am going to put up on their facebook page - here is their website though http://www.sweetsugarsixpence.co.uk. Take a look if you get chance because seriously i could have eaten 10 of them! The second two pictures are from Trilbies and Tassels who had some lovely things. I really wish i had more money and would definately have bought one of the necklaces.

Blouse - vintage - £10, Black topshop jeans - £40, Moss satchel - ebay - £18, Topshop coat - £75

I only bought one thing whilst i was there. A 1960s original AA bag. It is in a lovedly faded yellow/camel and has a strap to go over the shoulder. It was priced at £10 but i got it for £7 with a bit of bargaining. Cant wait to use it at college, it even fits my folder in! Hope everyone else had a good weekend.
