Ooh look, I've got lines on my legs like people in the olden days!
Just an outfit-rundown that will be of minimal interest to, well, anybody. Note to self, write some toast posts that aren't boring!
On Wednesday I evidently wanted to skip around pretending to be a sweater girl or bobby-soxer.
I wanted a vintage look but actually it's all fake fake fake (or no, we call it 'repro', don't we?) My pencil skirt is from Primark, my stretchy black t-shirt came from Topshop so long ago that it's actually gone sort of crunchy, I got my spectators in Dorothy Perkins, and my seamed stockings are actually tights (notice how they went from kinky to grannified as soon as I admitted that? That's the effect of gussets! Hee hee!) that I got in Fenwicks. Adorable little birdie brooch that you can't actually see because I'm a crap photographer is by http://www.sundaygirlaccessories.co.uk/ . Pallid, unenthusiastic, desperately-in-need-of-lipstick visage is courtesy of it being not yet 7 a.m. and my being in desperate need of breakfast.
Thursday - 1950s housewife who wants to run away with the circus? I dunno. It's a frankly brilliant dress that my leetle seester the ebay queen gave me for Christmas a couple of years ago, paired with red ballet shoes (That sounds misleadingly Moira Shearer, doesn't it? I don't know why I call all 'flats' ballet shoes. They're not, anyway.) and a belt that I thought was white until I saw it next to the white polkadots!
Casual today because it's Saturday and I couldn't be bovvered. Skirt from Oasis, white t-shirt was a cast-off from me mam, belt was necessary because t-shirt was shapeless and made me look thick around the waist. (Simon, if you say one word about M&Ms I'll kick you.) Also pictured, my brilliant new pin-up girl brooch from http://www.dollsandmolls.co.uk/, which comes under the category of 'Not suitable to wear at school, even on non-uniform day'. I'm bisected by a shadow because I'm a crap photographer.
Still love the look
