Very vintage

-

 


Who doesn’t love a vintage knit? 🤷🏼‍♀️

I get so excited when I find good deals on vintage clothes. Depop and Vinted are great websites to browse for vintage looks, but I must admit, I do love going to an actually vintage store every once in a while. 

I have photographed a couple of my favourite vintage knits, which are of course full of colour!

It is difficult to know what to wear with crazy prints and/or colourful clothes sometimes. Some days I spend ages looking in my wardrobe, trying to figure out what goes with what. I usually only wear 

one busy garment at a time, which I guess you could call “the statement piece”, and then the rest of my outfit is pretty plain. I worry about entering a point beyond return of crazy print overload, with clashes here, there and everywhere. However, some people make it work! - if one of those people is reading this, please give me some tips. I have not quite mastered wearing a print on print, or rainbow on rainbow just yet! 

Stay safe!

Flower Power Fri-yay!

 It’s Friday!  Bank holiday Mondays are such a treat, but I always feel that the rest of the week feels much longer somehow?  I haven’t posted on here for a while. But I had a colour-full week last week, full of exciting garments. So, thought I would share.  I have decided to swear off fast, unsustainable fashion. The climate crisis is worsening rapidly so I am trying my hardest to do my bit for the planet. Including changing my lifestyle, clothing brands and household decor/ toiletries. If you want to start reducing your carbon footprint but aren’t sure where to start, there are two apps that I highly recommend! The first is ‘Good On You’, which gives you the sustainable ratings of clothing brands. You will be shocked at how unsustainable some of your favourite brands are! I certainly was! The second is ‘MLPF’, which is all about reducing the amount of plastic you use by replacing it with eco-friendly alternatives. You can create your own plastic diet, and make a ch...

Colour-full bucket twat

  Happy Sunday!  We have all been waiting patiently for a bit of sunshine. So, when I looked at the weather forecast on Thursday and read that the long bank holiday weekend was going to be a warm one, I was ecstatic! And as the government has relaxed the ‘rule-of-six’; permitting groups of six to meet indoors, I was able to actually see real-life people! In person! I expect a lot of people are relieved that they can now see their loved ones face-to-face, and give them a ‘cautious’ hug!  So onto the fashion side of things; I am not usually a bucket hat fan. My partner loves them, and wears them everywhere. Even around the house! However, this funky little number caught my eye on Depop a couple of weeks ago, and one impulsive buy later, here it is on my head!  The multi-coloured pattern is very much a bit of me. I looked at it and thought “I need this in my life”.  So, apologises to all the bucket hat fans out there! To my surprise, bucket hats can be awesome and...

Full of Autumnal Colour

  I’m going to be honest with you, I haven’t written on this blog in a very long time, and it is all because I forgot my log in details 🤦🏼‍♀️😂!  But! I am back now! Ready to share some more colour-full clothing with all you lovely readers (if I have any 😂).  I even have a life update to share! My partner and I are in the process of buying our first home! And jeez has it been a stressful process! No one warned us that it was going to be as hard as it has been. We are 3 months into our house buying journey, and still could loose the property we are purchasing at any given moment. Such a nightmare! There has been what feels like a million ups and downs, and I am sure there are more to come. However, I am hoping next time I write on my blog, we will be settling into our new home.  Anyways! Fashion! I know it is no longer autumn, but I bought this amazing, corduroy dungaree dress in the Lucy and Yak sale. Their dungarees are THE BEST, as you can adjust them to be as l...
