tapered jeans


90s aerostaple blue tapered jeans - ebay

I want these. I don't know if I would ever wear them/pull them off effectively. But in the name of 'branching out' in the wardrobe department, I am entertaining the idea...

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...

This man is a hero. I just finished watching Cry Baby for the 4353987523897029453468343483475389745th time. Now I am feeling inspired and hunting for a 50s polka dot blouse and other such goodies on ebay.

old lady river



vintage knit - somewhere in exeter, chinos - asos, necklace - new look, bracelets - various, bandana - paddy's

Outfit inspired mostly by old ladies. Beige trousers and a cream 80s knit, call me Vera. I thought the necklace/bracelets/bandana gave it a bit of a chola twist and made me look less elderly. Also my front room is awesome.

Today has mostly consisted of nearly crying at the end of come dine with me because the nice man won, being tired, housework, and listening to Bangers and AFI on repeat. Now I am going to eat cheese & onion mini bites from sainsburys, and look for some rad interior design ideas for my bedroom.
