Shopping!

It's been a while since I last went shopping, this may be a good thing for my bank account but not for my fashion needs! 

In Watford town, you can always depend on charity shops to give what you want and with my findings definitely proved this..

In Oxfam I managed to get a leopard print  shift dress/shirt for 2.99! 

Also, well you probably don't know that I'm a sucker for christmas/cheesy jumpers.. so I also found a black and white damask jumper with red and green roses at the bottom for only £2

Okay, so even though summer is nearly ending, I've been trying to find  dream catcher to put in my room at night and wear in the day and today is that day! Have a look Dorothy Perkins and they should have them there.

Right, my next find was not in a charity shop but in Primark..and they've definitely got a lot better since I last went in there, they have the most amazing festival clothes and chiffon dresses! 

I found this gorgeous poncho/jumper in there for £12 which I will be wearing tomorrow for my new look on lookbook! 

If any of you have looked on my eBay lately, you might be interested to know that I'm selling a pair of Topshop inspired heels which were used in my 60's Monochrome post! so have a watch if your interested.

Hope your having a good summer my lovely's xx

P.S.

If your wanting to know how to find some good vintage clothes in thrift shops then have a look at this post..

Staying Classy

G'day vintage lovers. 

It's not the best of times in London at the moment, but that doesn't mean we can't carry on with what most of us Brits do best (well some of us), being classy!

I get asked a lot of the time, how you can dress classy when you don't have the money to find fancy things? 

CHARITY SHOPS of course!

I've found lots of classy clothing in charity shops whilst only spending up to £4, so there's a way for it to be done!

But anyway, over the years of admiring ladies such as Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly, I have 4 key ways which lead towards a classy woman..

1.  Decide which assets to show off! The legs or the upper body.. shift dresses are perfect!

2. Wearing black! subtle and it goes with everything!

3. The perfect bag, I've had my eye on this bag for months and I still can't find it anywhere without it being over £75. It's a Fiorelli Hepburn inspired holdall leather bag which I feel is perfect to complete a classy look.

4. And the last little tip is making sure the clothes fit! If your wearing a tight fitting top with just jeans then throw a detailed cardigan over the top or a kimono! yes! 

Anyway, I thought this post might be quite helpful :)

New look up soon.promise!

L'espagnol

I haven't gone to Spain or anything, I just thought this look had a kind of Spanish feel to it, but you can decide that for yourself :) 

Having a good summer?

Alrighty then, well I haven't posted a look for a couple of days so I really need to put some more up!

This is one of my favorite tops which I bought from a charity shop, as you can see it's sort of a dark orangey color with large open sleeves and a flowery pattern through the middle. 

I'm wearing it with another pair of high-waisted light denim shorts which I bought from a car boot sale, however they were not frayed in the first place; I cut them and then pulled at the ends. 

Glasses from Camden and the shoes are from ASOS!

P.S. I'm selling some more things on eBay so if you go down the page there's a link to the site!

As always, thankyou for following :)

Sunny Sunny Sunny

Finally starting to feel like summer! 

Today, I'm wearing a familiar skirt which you've probably seen before, a striped top (Charity), navy clog heels (Primark), brown satchel (Vintage) and a brown belt which I think is from a (Car boot sale)...must have been a while since I'd bought it! 

My brother kindly took these photographs, but we kind of got carried away with taking ridiculous photos of ourselves. So I had to really search for a decent photograph to show off the outfit and this is what came out haha... tell me what you think xx

A Maxi Dress and Round Sun Glasses

Hello'ha!

So, I went to London yesterday to have a look in the new Forever 21..why didn't we think of having one here earlier?!

I managed to get an aztec maxi dress for only £19.75 and an Emerald ring for £3.45

I then went to Camden and got some round sun glasses (I'm selling another a larger size on my eBay so have a look!).. I'll definitely be wearing these to Reading festival this year!

Even though I haven't been blogging for long, your comments have been lovely so I hope your liking the looks! :)

The Black Fringe Dress

My camera hasn't been perfect lately, but I've tried my best to bring you the best pictures of one my favourite dresses from LoveLabel!

This black LL chiffon fringe sleeved dress was in the sale from £40 to £22 :) 

I've also grabbed a vintage gold chain with a pair of black high heels to complete the outfit!

(I sort of look like a ghost in the pictures due to quality, so sorry about that!)
