College Clothes & Charity Shops

04 February 2011
Hi! First of all let me say sorry for the messy wind swept hair, it's gale force winds outside and it's actually scary how strong they are. And also sorry for my cat in the photos he gets lonely if I kick him out. Next I want to say a BIG thank you to everyone who has read, commented or followed by blog. It really makes my day, although that's probably sad ha!

Only worn this hat once, can't decide if I look too silly in it?

I thought I'd show you what I wore to college today, it's very casual. I got the blue velvet hot pants yesterday in Penneys (Primark) on sale for €1 - had to have them!

My Mama kindly picked me up some more vintage knits in the charity shop today. She also got me a lovely bracelet it reminds me of the Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume bottle I love it.

Not too sure about the longer cardi, feel I'm a tad too short for it. It's Paul Costello though so expect to find it on my ebay if not. Speaking of which I will definitely post a link to my ebay when I've finally finished my clothes clear out.

  4. The winds are bad here too, I'm dreading walking to work in it tomorrow morning! Also love the shorts! I remember seeing them in there but they didn't have my size, they had a skirt in the same material also which I adored! You were it very well :)

    I like the long cardi with it, it makes the outfit very casual but yet stylish, you could easily wear those shorts on a night out too with a dressy blouse/top and some heels!

    Thanks for your comments, they're always very lovely!

  9. The hat doesn't look silly at all, I really like it on you. I know the feeling though, I have items that I love but feel like I look stupid in them so they're hardly worn.
    The shorts were a bargain! I love the colour.

  15. wow can't believe they were so cheap!
    i'm kind of iffy on unusual shorts (velvet/suede/leather/not denim basically) but you suit them really well and make them look normal ha.
