I was sooo happy to find these today! I've been looking for a pair like this for about 2 years! I was in Whistles, browsing the sale rail while my mum tried on a dress. Lo and behold I come across these jeans reduced from £160 to £50. What a bargain. And in my size too. And to top it all off, my Mum offers to pay for them. Woo hoo!

I also really like the pocket detail on the back

Haha .. I know! He is the cutest little pug ever and I love him to bits! He always find his way into the shot when I am taking pics of an outfit..

Lady Day - I didn't know that.. maybe that was the reason for the hiiigh pricetag - when a reseller has them in their shop in Denmark the price is roughly 2.5 times higher than the one on SS own site.

*sneaks in*

Not an outfit, not necessarily vintage but;

£12 from the bay & was delivered for £15 (we're looking at the bike here, not the CDs or the Resident Evil Umberella in the background). Bit rusty in places but tomorrow I'm off to Tesco to buy some cheap coke & a scouring pad.

I love love loooooove it.

Edit; Circa 1968.

I went thrifting for the 2nd time in my life and got:

"Pictoral Encyclopedia of Fashion" A fashion history book from the late 60s I think... FULL of photos and paintings.. and deals with fashion, accesories and hair-do's. A total gem.

5 LIFE Magazines from the 40s/50s

3 Swedish magazines from 1931 and 1930.
with gorgeous covers.
Also, a small carafe and glasses for schnaps in a light blue glass. Possibly 60s.

All of this for 35 bucks!!

Amazing pics soon to follow!

Everyone has been buying such lovely clothes!

I did not get clothes but I did get a 1942 issue of Glamour magazine, and some neat jewelry.

Wow I love the cover!

Well gals, you know I have a hard time saying no to a good hawaiian and today I couldn't say no to two! Pardon the poor pictures. The red one is strapless and has a matching bolero and the yellow one fits like a million bucks! At $35.00 a pop I don't even feel guilty! Now I just need someplace to wear 'em!

It must have been one of those weekends, as I snagged some great stuff cheap as well!

I really needed these earings to lighten up a thin black summer dress I bought for $5 at H&M!

These buttons were $1 for the whole bag. They're going to really spruce up a black sweater I have!

Great score! Love it! Now I'm going to obsess on finding "V" pins as my daughter's name is Violet

Caroline ~ I love those rose earrings WOW!

Well here is my latest purchase, I just received it in the post this morning and to my dismay does not fit :rage: I bought it off eBay and the measurements that were listed would have fit to a 'T' but obviously the measurements were way off....too small

And I was so looking forward to wearing it for my 30th Birthday in 3 weeks.........[huh]

I just popper into my local Superdrug and found, of all things, silver kirby grips for my blonde hair and Amami setting lotion.

happy happy happy

Just won this--I love half hats and headbands, so I'm thrilled to get such a good start on my collection:
