AFTERNOON!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe its Friday again!!
Where do the weeks go??
I had such a bad Friday last week but today has been quite good so far.
Well apart from the wind, rain and freezing to (almost) death.
Anyway...
This was me earlier today after popping to West Wickham with Mum.
Like I said yesterday Lilly was getting her hair done which meant charity shop shopping with Mum. Even after having a moan about a complete s***head of a cab driver, I suddenly got excited when I saw the giant rabbits! I fell in love with one of them when he (I think); went on his hind legs to me and I gave him a stroke. I didn't come back with a rabbit (unfortunately) but I did come back with something better. So the day started off with a Starbucks that I treated my Mum to and then it was time to brave the rain again. After a few charity shops I honestly thought it would have been a waste of a trip; but soon my luck was to change. I picked up a vintage zodiac silk scarf from Mind which was only £1.75, a complete and utter bargain and Mind is always a good place for silk scarves. And then the best find of the day and probably the month if not the year. In Breast Cancer Research I found a vintage hand made cape from the 1960's for £35!! Now I know that £35 is a lot for a charity shop; but considering it was hand made in the 1960's I think that's pretty damn good. I know that if I went to Camden I would have paid twice that, so watch this space as it could pop up at any moment.
To the outfit...
I feel very rock and roll today with the metallic, camouflage, skulls and a Metallica top. I have been feeling very edgy in my fashion cravings lately. Plus it seems everything is short at the moment (well apart from the maxi skirt); this skirt isn't as short as my dress yesterday (thank god) but that doesn't make it wind friendly. I went for a similar colour palette today as of course the skirt is a difficult colour to dress. I chucked on my new Metallica Topshop vest, it's from one of the concessions And Finally. I have been eyeing up this vest for a few months but I kept putting off while I bought other frivolous things; but when I saw Beautycrush had bought this in the sale I knew I had to have it. The only one I could find was a size 12 but it looked really baggy so I decided to try it on. When I tried it on the fashion gods were on my side as it fit perfectly. It has the right balance of bagginess and length to compliment me well. The fact that it was a tenner sweetened the deal completely.
I forgot to mention that I did another OOTD video today with the help of my Mum - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQ-ihNi90aM&feature=youtu.be. It's still a bit dodgy but I'm working on what I can do to make it better etc. I definitely think I need to get some software to help me; unfortunately I'm a techno phobe so that doesn't help.
I'm currently relaxing on the sofa slowly freezing to death while watching The Hills.
Why does autumn/winter have to be so cold??
Well I guess that's the point…
