Autumn skirts and Victorian ruffles

Afraid I don't have alot to say today other than that my essay is almost finished hooray!
Today was nice and cool, so the time was ripe to whip out my Victorian boots. I was trying to do 70s but when I tried on this blouse the puff sleaves turned out to be larger than expected, but I can't say I minded I also really like Victorian styling. 
Hope your Sunday was delightful.



Outfit: ruffled blouse gift, 70s skirt vintage, boots vintage

26 degrees and sunshine

 Today I felt happy, which is odd because I spent the day at the library studying. I think it was a combination of the nice weather and the outfit. I think I've been doing too many particular looks lately and I needed a break. Sometimes it just feels good to wear something a bit strange or quirky and set yourself apart. You can't really see but I'm wearing this sweet pair of earrings made of little forks.


 Outfit: top vintage, shorts thrifted, shoes Sportsgirl, earrings from Hunter Gatherer.

And even though today was so sunny I ended up being surprisingly productive, which is an exception for me lately! I got everything done in record time which meant I had time to go out and enjoy the sun for a bit. I also bought a new cd - Best Coast and I love it. The cat on the cd looks like my kitty. 

As far as I can tell this song is about my cat....

Shiny shoes

Today I did a spot of op shopping and came across this lovely pair of 70s silver pumps on sale for $3.50.

Characteristically 70s: chunky heels and thick soles!

The down side was they don't fit my big feet, but they were so ridiculously cheap that I brought them home anyway. I think I will try and put them on display somewhere in my room. It is very rare to come across 60s and 70s pumps in op shops, usually they sit in the windows of expensive vintage shops shining out at you as if to say "you can't afford us, and we probably won't fit you anyway."

I hope the rest of the week turns out to be as shiny as these shoes!
Have a nice Thursday.

Shadow of morning

It's 5am and I have to go to work boo, so I tought I would cheer myself up before I left with some sweet etsy browsing and I found an outfit perfect for sailing through the streets in the early hours of the morning...

Happy Monday (errgh)
