THE VINTAGE KILO SALE

20.11.2013

                                                                                               

                                                                                                                                                                                                                

Well last Saturday i went to a vintage kilo sale in Leeds and picked up these three really beautiful retro items which came to a total of £15, there were so many nice items i really could have bought everything. 

Anyway i came across the dark green jacket and wondered it if it would suite my style, i tried it on and found that it suite perfectly and then added it too my basket. I then came across the velvet navy blue shirt which i automatically added to my basket without question due to how nice it looked. My final item i added to my basket was a vintage blazer which i thought would look smart with a plain shirt and jeans so i added it too my basket hoping i would wear it on some formal occasion. 

I am getting really excited for Christmas and mainly the shopping i will take part in after Christmas, i plan to full my wardrobe up even more and purchase plenty more pairs of shoes. What is everyone else getting for Christmas?

IT'S A GREY DAY

9.11.2013

today i found this jumper in my wardrobe and wanted to put together a soft, grey, pale outfit and matched it with my grey Jeans which i bought from Primark for £15.00. My nature jumper was also from Primark (£7.00). However my cream Harrington is a very eccentric piece of my collection and was give to me from my step-dad after he had wore it in the 80's. The Harrington is from Burberry and is worth £900.00. 

OUT OF THE BLUE

6.11.2013

Well today i put together an outfit based on the colours blue and orange, this outfit included a Ben Sherman shirt in which i picked up off a car boot for £2.00. My blue jeans which were rather expensive at £30.00 from River Island but i thought they would compliment well with every item of clothing i had. I also mixed my blue clothing with my orange and selected a top which i bleached myself (£0.95). Should i do a blog entry tutorial on how to bleach clothing?

RAINY DAY

2.11.2013

I woke up this morning to the sound of rain charging at my window and was incredibly happy as i knew i could wear my 'rainy day' outfit, which consists of my burgundy jumper (£4.00) which i bleached myself and my Nike jacket which i picked up reasonably cheap (£15.00) at a vintage store in Leeds.

How did i bleach my jumper?
I just simply filled up an old squirty bottle with bleach and squirted it all over the jumper. I literally covered the entire jumper and thought i would have ruined it, but in the end it came out really nice almost like it had been acid washed.

No.3 -  my 3rd favorite pair are my pizza socks, also from Topman for £4.00

SHOPPING IN SHEFFIELD

30.10.2013

 










well today i went shopping at Medowhall in Sheffield and picked up this beautiful specimen, i hardly ever see anything nice that i want when i am given some money to spend however i was wondering around Primark and spotted this beautiful Christmas jumper for £15.00 and knew i had to buy it straight away. I also picked up some Halloween socks for £0.50 on the sale which will be posted in a new blog entry i'm working on of my top 7 pairs of socks. Also after many hours of scouring the shopping center i fell in love with the shop Lush and spent £30.00 on bath and skin products which i'm sure will feature in my blog someday. So basically a very productive shopping day and i will hopefully be going shopping to Medowhall again soon.

FLORAL FANTATIC

28.10.2013

ok so recently i have had a crazy obsession with floral patterns on clothing have purchased a lot of new garments following the floral pattern. This Joe Brown's shirt is one of my favorite floral items, i bought it at a car boot in Cleethorpes a few weeks ago for £1.50 and am very happy I invested. I wear it either over the top of a t-shirt as it is rather large on me or just as a baggy shirt. Pretty sure this is not the end of my floral obsession and hope to be purchasing more floral products soon.
