. . . I'm lazy and am only just posting what I should of had posted two days ago. And as the icing on the cake I have no excuse for my leave of absence for over a month (I can't remember when I haven't said at the start of a post, whoops) Well this is what is taking over my brain compassity at the moment . . .
I wore this on Sunday, I thought it was comfy but posted it because of the funny looks I got he he (I did have shorts+ tights as well) jumper- gap| rain coat- somewhere in Scotland| scarf- gap| boots- Jones boot makers
Auntie Madge's vintage stuff- real snake skin clutch real fur collar and real leather gloves And now on to my shoe obsession:
my sister's Dr Martains
I know some of them are weird but I'm a bit weird too so deal with it x
As you might have noticed I am also obsessed with flatforms
Okay I am such a crappy blogger it's really untrue and also I have no excuse this time (except for dawdling and procrastinating) for MORE than a MONTHS absence! Terrible I hear you say, well err yeah, pretty much. Well nothing to do now but on with the post . . .
Yesterday I took these pictures some of my favorite outfits that I have worn over the spring half term and all the books I have been reading lately annnnnnd the music that has sort of made my holidays . . .
from top to bottom; walls notebook (okay not actually a book but), sock and glove by Miyako Kanamori, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, Italian Vogue may 2011 (for good measure), 50 Designers You Should Know by Simone Werle, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling and A History of Couture (dunno who it's by.)
I'm sitting on a big stack of vogue's from the early 80's and late 70's
Yeah you can just ignore my weird posture
I actually didn't realise how grumpy I look in all of these hehe
ooh close up
I didn't know that her face looked like it was mine
The pictures next to me are of my mum in a mock-up of Tatler but I don't know who the other one is of (this is when I get a load of comments like, "omg, how could you not know who so and so, she is the most influential women of the 2oth century !?)
I just wanted to add this in (vintage tatler)
yep, I'm the crazy dog lady that lives
in the old secluded mansion at the end
of your street
the big stack of vintage vogues
you couldn't actually see this but it was there it's
from the gift shop at the passport place in russia
how many pictures of these shoes do I need
(apparently a lot)
I doodled in the walls note book
(the G-star raw adverts look much better now)
I was too proud of the hand I drew
Sorry I just really wanted to do this with the woody allen autobiography
The costumes in this video are absolutely amazing
you can actually buy this song on itunes and there is tons of him doing this live but this was the only one with sound quality
it was made in the 1960's and I'm not even sure if they had color T.V then
so these are all pretty happy songs, but now it gets a bit rocky/gothy/puncky (don't know what the correct 'term' is really)
this was the best quality I could get . . . sorry
yep so that was exhausting and if you've read this far then thanks oh yeah and also does anyone know how to get up music without having to get a video from youtube because this took forever, hope you all enjoy the rest of your week oh and I almost forgot . . .
what type of Englander would I be if I didn't mention THE ROYAL WEDDING? Kate's dress (as you all know) was designed by Sarah Burton
kates dress is truly stunning and looks a lot like grace kellys
did anyone see will whisper to kate that she looked beautiful?
they are so sweet together and are properly in love and
Hello all, sorry about another filler that I am doing and promise that I'll get straight back to outfit posts after this, since I like them the most. Well I have been hearing about this blog flashes of style for ages now and finally decided to check it and decided that it is one of my new favorite blogs along side the likes of style rookie and style bubble (note: should of called my blog something with 'style' in the title since it's worked out so well for them.) Bonnie Barton is the author/ founder/ whatever you want to call it and she has the most gorgeous style ever I think. It is very preppy and stylish and vintage all at the same time and like me we also share a love for big chunky wedges. Her blog is a really easy read as well. The only downside is that she doesn't have a blog archive, and if she doesn't I haven't found it yet, and I always love looking right at their very first posts and reading upwards ( I know weird right?)
