autumn outerwear

Labrador Jumper - Ebay

Overboard Chambray Jacket - Nastygal

Safari Style Jacket (?) - stylescout.blogspot.com

Oversized Bomber - Acne

Jean Net Jacket - Cheap Monday

Sheepskin Flying Jacket - Topshop

Fishtail Parka - ASOS Reclaimed

Utility Mix Pocket Shirt - Topshop

TFNC Vintage Military Style Parka - Asos
Also on my list are pale pink/grey oversized cable knit jumpers, hideous brown grandad jumpers, and lots of cheap jumpers bought and DIY'd to have a laddered effect. Pretty much all of the above items are about a million pounds out of my price range so I will be improvising and stealing my boyfriend's army jackets and wearing them with skinny waist belts instead of buying a new one that fits exactly the same but just costs £9649745745... I am also tempted to try and DIY a version of the net jean jacket by Cheap Monday. Seems simple enough really!

sheer brilliance


vintage 50s sheer polka dot blouse - ebay

As I just said, watching Cry Baby has inspired me and thrust me into a world of wanting to buy every 50s vintage item I can find. This shirt is brilliant. I don't own anything like this and I feel like it is time I branched out from denim shorts, oversized t-shirts and plaid shirts. This sheer little beauty would be good with high waisted shorts, or skirts and is pretty perfect for Summer, by my reckoning. And at £9 with free p&p this sounds like a pretty bleddy good bargain.

Expect loads more of this kind of post shortly...

animal rings


turtle ring - CsCharms.etsy.com


croc two finger ring - haoshi.com


bunny ring - hipsterchic.com


seahorse ring - ebay



panther ring - ebay


owl ring - ebay


flamingo cameo ring - asos

After seeing the big ass deer ring that I posted a few days ago on hoyfashion, I keep noticing animal rings everywhere, so these are a few of my favourites. I did see a better owl ring in new look earlier today but its not up on the website, boo.

I think my favourite favourite is possibly the two finger crocodile one. Created by the Chinese design studio, Haoshi (means 'good things' in Chinese), this ring and the others in the series are all handmade and are meant to evoke a feeling of joy at everyday objects, so that all the 'good things' in the world are appreciated. Although handmade, therefore obviously not simple to make, the white plastic against the silver ring gives off such a clean aesthetic I just can't resist. The rest of the rings above are all pretty busy, and tacky ofc, and this is so different and so much more precise. It also carries a $95 price, so I suppose that sets it apart.
