Today I wore: Vintage and New!

Today I wore, for a busy day at work on the shop floor... 

Topshop Joni Jeans (Perfect partner to anything cropped), a 'Vintage' Marks and Spencer (St Michael) Sunflower crop top, and my faithful Converse (A must for running up and down stairs and climbing ladders - VM style). 

I picked up this top from a charity shop a couple of years ago. It's kinda been sat in my wardrobe for a while; made redundant with this mass of wintery weather we've had, and my lack of high waist bottom options to wear with it. Thankfully the sun is out! And the current High waist nature of disco pants and array of jeans such as the Topshop Joni, means all those crop tops are much easier to wear. This sunflower print is similar to that seen across American Apparel product this season, which has inspired me to re-embrace this retro Crop top :-)

What ya think? I love mixing old and new, for a unique look.

A little trip to Topshop Oxford Circus!

A couple of weeks ago I was in London for an interview, so whilst I was there, I took the essential, or shall we say obligatory trip to Topshop Oxford Circus.

Being from a small town, and small store, it's great to get the chance to see what Topshop exhibits on it's grandest scale, and of course it's newest of new offerings; and (As always) it has a lot to offer for Spring/Summer '13!

WINDOWS!

I love shop windows, especially those along Oxford street. They are the most creative and inspiring!

Topshop Oxford Circus windows currently showcase it's 21st Century Debutante trend - Ladylike fabrics, prints and tailored pieces, with contemporary dashes of fluro, and the odd masculine garment, all layered together with those signature quirky styling touches!

Here's some of the pieces I took into the fitting rooms, for a trying on session...

Decisions...
(My own: Brogues - Topshop, T-shirt - Topshop, Disco Pants - American Apparel)

Subconsciously my selection has a clear PINK theme, which seems to be coming through as a key colour for Spring/Summer '13. As is the continuation of dungarees, crop tops and grunge jumpers....

What I bought....

Grey baby cord dungarees

Bright pink grunge jumper

Multi breton stripe t-shirt dress

Today I wore...

My new 'vintage' skirt...

I found this skirt in one of my local charity shops for £2.99! I've been looking for a mid length floral skirt like this for a while now. This one is the perfect length for me, and I love the colours in the floral print :-)

Crop top -Topshop, Necklace H&M, Belt H&M, Bag H&M, Skirt - Salvation Army, Ankle Boots - New Look.

For a night out in London for my friends' Birthday, I teamed the skirt with a white Topshop crop top for an edgy, youthful look. As the skirt is very feminine, I also chose black heeled ankle boots, a black leather jacket and my black fringed shoulder bag, for a rocky element.

When the weather finally warms up, I'll probably style this midi with a tucked in breton t-shirt, tan leather cutaway pumps or converse and a leather jacket, for a Spring/Summer daytime look...

Today I Bought... New Vest - 'The Boys'

Yesterday I picked up this awesome new Swedish House Mafia vest in H&M for £9.99! I've seen Swedish House Mafia a couple of times, and just had to get this vest in homage to 'The Boys'. 

As with all new things, i wore it out straight away for a night out in town with best friend, partner in crime and wingman. I teamed it with a strapless monochrome polka dot bra (as the vest drapes low), a statement necklace, black leather trousers, snakeskin clutch, black ankle boots, bright pink nails and 

pinky/red lip :-) 

Hope you all had a good weekend.

LE-AH! X
