Golden Oldies

 

I am a hoarder. Feel like I should be sat in a circle in a group counselling session with a name badge on and 'Hoarding addict' underneath. I just can't bring myself to get rid of clothes or shoes, I'm haunted by this time I chucked a beautiful pair of boots out that were 'out of season' and then they came back in a few months later...devo! so from then on I promised to never chuck anything out, unless unwearable of course.

 

The oldest of the bunch is this little red number from River Island which is actually about 15 years old, my Dad's lovely girlfriend passed it on to me after one of her wardrobe clear outs along with a load of vintage Topshop...Heaven! I really love the back of it which is why I had to wear my hair up to really show it off.

 

Ripped jeans are obviously a must have in anyone's wardrobe, they literally go with everything and I felt they really update this outfit.

 

My fave is this cute little flowery bomber from H&M and it's been a wardrobe resident for a good 6 years I recon, I love how you can dress it up or down.

Pretty in pink

Pink on pink....my kind of heavennn, not to mention the different fabrics going on, faux fur and Faux leather. The cropped sleeve jumper from Primark is about 2 years old now but still going strong, although I have probably only worn this a handful of times as I don't think the colour suits me as well as I'd like it too. Now I'm not really one for skater skirts due to my long skinny legs, as I feel it can sometimes look like two bits of string dangling which can look rather un-flattering, but I could not leave Primark with out this little gem. The beauty of it completely distracted me from the image of 'two bits of string' and I do not regret it. Thank you Primark probably the only skater skirt I will ever own... unless anyone knows where I can get any other colours?! lol.

 

River Island take a bow... I am head over heels in LOVE with these knee high boots, I loved them last year but having moved out of my parents home and entering the big wide world of bills and budgeting £75 was rather a lot of money to be spending on a pair of boots. That's all changed now though! I'm back home with Daddy and in possession of these beauty's. They're not as tight as I'd like them to be (can you notice the skinny leg situation is a re- occurring problem?!) but they are the tightest I've found yet and I would sleep in these if I could. There is something about them that any outfit you put them with instantly makes you feel 'grown up' and sophisticated. Best £75 I've spent in a long time.

 

It would be rude to leave the quilted chain strap bag out because it basically lives on my shoulder outside of work. This was a charity shop find for £3 but originally from Knight and Lee.
