hoody - primark, top - h&m, leather shorts - jumble sale/ diy, shoes - asos, belt - charity shop

This is an outfit I wore last weekend to cheer my roller derby team on (we won by over 100 points YES!) I picked up a pair of real leather trousers at a jumble sale recently for 25p (!!). They were too big for me on the legs so I just cut them into shorts - still a bit big round the waist but nothing a belt doesn't fix! If you enjoy hunting through piles of clothes, jumble sales are the place to go! Most of the ones I visit are something like 25p an item. I even went to one yesterday where items were 20p for a large item and 10p for a small one. £1.20 well spent on eight items of clothing. Crazy cheap!

I don't think this is written very well because I have a massive headache from slamming into a wall and then into a door when I was rollerskating today. One day I will learn to write a blog post before three hours of contact sport. Sleep time now.

hat, earrings - primark, cropped turtleneck - ebay, skirt, backpack - charity shop, shoes - vagabond via urban outfitters, oscar the kitten - he was found under an oven (true story) (don't ask i don't know)

Hello! I've been a bit MIA on the blog front recently (I just checked and it's been nearly a month since I last posted!) What with new job, finding out I may have to move house, blah blah etc etc but at least now it's light when I get home from work I should be able to take more photos!

I wore this outfit yesterday to do some shopping in Milton Keynes, go for some drinks and watch the Alice in Wonderland ballet. I have never seen a ballet before and I don't think I will watch one again. Not that it was terrible or anything, just not my kind of thing. I don't think I would have understood the story if I didn't already know it. Trippy.

Oscar is well on trend at the moment with his monochrome fur. He was trying to stick his head in all my photos so I got him involved.
