Hey guys! This weeks OOTD is coming on a Tuesday, Apologies! Ricardo took me to London yesterday and it was a lovely surprise day out!
Today It was really sunny outside so I decided to style a few Charity shop bargains I've purchased recently In a 1969/1970 Style OOTD.
I've really been getting into my Charity shopping recently with it being a new Season for Fashion Trends and all. Even my dad comes along with me now when he sees all of the bargains I'm bringing home!
I picked up this gorgeous lace shirt from St.Francis' Hospice for only £2.50 and it's so lovely! I'm wearing it unbuttoned here but buttoned up it makes a fabulous tunic style shirt, the lace is daisy shaped and very 1960s!
My Straw bag was only £1 from Sue Ryder, I found it in a big pile of bags and I have the biggest weakness for Straw bags I couldn't leave it behind.
Ok. Let's talk about my Suede Skirt.
I actually made it! As you may or may not know I LOVE to sew and I've been testing a few patterns out for this seasons styles. I tried out a mini skirt in this Faux Suede material and ITS AWESOME.
I teamed it with this thick Black Belt from Primark, a Hand me down from my sister! I love the thick cut look it gives and It's a very 70's thing. If you're ever in doubt about the new 1970's fashion trends, Remember - Flares. Suede. Belts. Tassels.
I'll be making some Suede Skirts as well as other Fabulous Vintage Style bits to sell for release in May so watch this space & Follow me on instagram for updates!
My sunglasses are from Forever 21, I purchased them when I used to work there and they cost me about £6 which is the most I've ever paid for sunglasses! THE HORROR. But I love them they're very Nicole Richie - esque.
I threw on a Black crop top from H&M (£1.99) and Black Tights and Pumps from Primark (£2.99 & £4.00).
I thought I'd include my eye make-up as it matched my Outfit haha! I had Collection's Felt Tip Black Eyeliner and a Collection Copper Glitter Eyeliner in the inner corners, TRES CHIC.
I plaited the sides of my hair and brought them together at the back, Curling the ends of my hair and pinning it.
You get a nice close up of the Lace Shirt here and it's JUST LOVELY.
That's all for today, I'd like to thank you for coping with my poor quality photos and I'm so excited to say I'll be buying a Brand new proper camera come payday! All of my Blog Posts will be HD-ified. YAY.
Whats the best charity shop purchase you've made recently! I'd really love to know so don't be shy in tweeting/commenting to tell me!
