80's Vibes.



(Top - Sweet Sorrow Vintage, skirt - Topshop, shoes - La Moda, watch - Marc Jacobs, necklace - Missguided, bag - Primark)

What's this? Two posts in a week? It's almost unheard of for me! I'm feeling a bit more organised and I'm slowly starting to find a routine to get me back into regular blogging so hopefully I'll keep this up. For those of you who don't know, I'm quite the busy little bee and I also run a blog for a vintage boutique which you can read here, and I'm a contributing writer for the award-winning Bonafide Supernova

I went out last night, and this is what I wore. I'm currently in the middle of that gruelling January dryathlon so it was sadly a night spent sober amongst a sea of drunk people; it was insightful if nothing else. I'm still in the process of losing some Christmas weight, so I wasn't feeling quite brave enough to break out the bodycon skirt until I decided to team it with a slightly more loose-fitting top. I bought this original 1980's top from Sweet Sorrow Vintage on a bit of a whim, I was buying some 1970's stuff and this top caught my eye. I'm not much of an 80's girl, but I was inexplicably drawn to this, and I tend to go with my instincts when it comes to vintage. I'm quite happy with it, I think it adds a bit of edge to my personal "all black everything" palette. Admittedly, I felt a little bit like Peg Bundy at first but it was nice to mix up my style a little bit. Now, I just need to shift these christmas pounds and break out the 70's bodycon mini-dress I bought. It's a beauty.
