Lust-Worthy Item Of The Week...

Hello again vintage lovers!

It's certainly been a while! I am very much aware of my lack of posts recently - it's been a long few months, let me tell you. I am currently without a PC/laptop still (this is an ongoing saga as many of you may know!) and therefore am unable to blog as frequently as I'd like. I occasionally use the Blogger iPhone app but to be honest, it just doesn't cut the mustard!

I am however, able to bring you this small (non-vintage, albeit) tit bit from a borrowed laptop. My lust-worthy item of the week and latest purchase. Classic, ladylike, vintage inspired and utterly gorgeous...


Weave Roll-Top Shoulder Bag. £37, River Island.

Driving The Wedge...

As you may have noticed, wedges are having a moment. They are all over the catwalks and they are the shoe to be seen in this spring/summer. Team with a bright oversized shirt tucked into peg leg trousers and you've got it made. Add a statement with this seasons palazzo trouser and you've just made fashion history. See what I mean? It's fashion, not rocket science...

The long wait 'til pay day...

I found myself in Norwich last week with a little time to kill. So off I went to indulge in some serious East-of-England window shopping when out of the blue I came across the most perfect item of clothing known to woman. I tried it on, not really expecting it to make me look anything less than a sack of potatoes. Little did I know it would turn out to be the most flattering item not yet in my wardrobe and I am now faced with a very long wait until pay day. Oh why are these things sent to tempt me?
