Radio Days

Hello!

Sorry I've been a bit quiet. I had an incident Thursday after work involving a man with a flick blade. I am A-OK but it has shaken me up a wee bit.

Anyway, on a lighter note, I was recently introduced to a wonderful vintage shop just around the corner from Waterloo station. What I loved most about this place was the amazing service. Each time I've been, one of the owners Lee has been there and he is an absolute pleasure! On my first visit I bought a super cute 60's style tartan skirt and a mint green jumper with a sweet collar detailing. Here I am wearing the skirt.

I was instantly drawn to this skirt, not just for the tartan pattern, but because of the unique fastening. The laced up front does give it a slight 70's feel to it. I paired it with a plain H&M t-shirt, a burgundy boyfriend cardigan originally from Topman but bought from a charity shop, a bronze bejewelled heart necklace from New Look, knee high cream socks, brown boots and a brown ribbon in my hair.

I really do love the fit of this skirt!

On my second visit to Radio Days, I popped in with my camera and asked Lee if I could take a few snaps for the blog. He very kindly said yes. Here's a little bit of what you can expect to see.

This shop has a little bit of everything; magazines, homeware, woman's clothing, men's clothing, even vintage kids clothing (check out the mini leather jacket!). Whilst I was walking around snapping these shots, I noticed a beautiful yellow embellished shift dress. It was a couple of days before pay day, so I told myself, if I was meant to have the dress, then it will still be there in a few days time...and it was! I'll be showing it off very soon :)

That's all for today. Thanks for reading and stay safe!!

Mojo

'Ello 'ello!

Last week I went to see Mojo at the theatre featuring an amazing cast of (wait for it...) Rupert Grint, Ben Whishaw, Colin Morgan, Daniel Mays and Brendan Coyle. It was such a good play and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Here's what I wore.

The retro braided sweater and pleated high waist pleuche velvet skirt are both from Oasap. I layered the jumper over a plain pink shirt and added a red ribbon tied as a bow as a little extra something. My midnight blue clutch is from Accessorize and the navy chelsea boots are from Topshop.

I'm really starting to feel a bit Christmassy (too early?). The cute Santa ring is actually from the top of a little Christmas bun from Greggs. I just had to have him!! He'll feature some more on the blog in the lead up to Crimbo.

If you are looking for something to see in London, I highly recommend Mojo. There are lots of strong performances from a fantastic cast line up, and who knew Ben Whishaw could sing?! I cannot wait to go and see it again!

Thanks for reading. I'll be back soon!
