8.8.10

Under the influence

charity shop shorts (£2), river island DIY-ed collared top (£3), vintage bag (from mother) &  belt, flea market earrings (£1), car boot sale cowboy boots (£1), primark sunglasses (£1)
Underage festival on Sunday - Courteeners, Darwin Deez, MIA, Lightspeed Champion, Tinie Tempah, Tinchy Stryder, Chiddy Bang, Ellie Goulding, Stornaway... And so much more. Special thanks to Meg, who got the tickets :) 
It was my second time to the festival, and ended up being a very dusty experience.
And yes, I'm wearing a bumbag/ fannypack. It was my mums from the 80's, true vintage. This isn't my first time at a festival, and I've always hated carrying a bag when jumping around in crowds and being sucked into moshpits. This is the answer. When I'm not bouncing about, I wear as a shoulder bag. Hey, if Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana and Marc Jacobs can do them, so can I.


1. Looking back, I'll chop slash fray these shorts shorter. I think I'm accidentally channelling "lesbian clown". 
2. Isn't it a weird moment when you realise you're wearing nothing over £3? Oh sorry, you wouldn't know, you're not a tramp :)
3. See y'all

There are no words for me in your dictionary


Believe it or not, I took this photo in London. In a secret place.
I would like to introduce you to my 99p carboot sale boots! I had to have them resoled, but, as genuine Harley Davison boots they are worth around £80.
But I am never ever going to sell them. They are too beautiful and are currently my welly alternative (after over usage my old pair of wellingtons are now not waterproof- not a good trait to have in a boot).

This jumper has a story too. When I bought it, (from Beyond Retro) it was at the same time that Alexa Chung was in the store! Imagine just browsing through rails of vintage and then BAM its your idol. It was an awesome moment. You should have been there.

P.S. Unfortunately, my friends call me "dictionary" when I wear this. Apparently thats what it reminds them of. I have great friends :)
P.P.S. I'm hiding my face because so far I'd spent 2nights under canvas - not a pretty sight..
P.P.P.S. Have a picture of Alexa in her cowbooy boots.
