This is Me!

This is Me! My first official piccy of me on my blog!

I am wearing my boot sale bargain of the month-my Topshop pussy bow 'Ossie style' floral tunic blouse which I bought for 50p and my Miss Selfridge skinny jeans bought for £4.49 in the Cancer Research.

Thriftyfashionista

I found this young lady's blogsite this morning-check it out! Meghann, you have an amazing website! Another person like me, who loves thrifting (we call it charity shopping or boot sales in the UK). Keep up the amazing blogs Meghann and thank you for your comment!

Sex and the City

In preparation of the new Sex and the City movie-I can't wait!!- a must read is Sex And The City Kiss And Tell (published by Boxtree/HBO).

Not only does it gives a mini synopsis of all episodes from start to finish (all six seasons), there are mini biography's of all concerned, fantastic pictures of all the girls wardrobes (swoon!), a low down season by season-this book certainly beats watching your box sets back to back if you are pushed for time!

Favourite Jumpers

Here are my two favourite jumpers :)

Jaeger Vintage Merino Wool Jumper-Red Cross Shop £2.99

Sonia Rykiel Wool Jumper-Help The Aged £2.49

Brrr.........WinterWear

Faux Fur Vintage Leopard Coat

This is my current winter coat, which I love, but as far as winter is concerned, I am now officially fed up with it. Roll on summer-or even spring will do! It officially started today, but its not much kop outside-thats why I'm blogging so much!!

Summer Jackets

River Island Bleached Denim Cropped Jacket

Pepe Jeans Military Style Cropped Jacket

These are two summer jackets purchased this year, but so far unworn.

I can't wait for summer!!.........................:)

Recommended Reads

I love boot sales, buying and selling on EBay (evey now and then), so I can recommend Lorne Spicer (of Car Booty fame) for all boot sale buyers and sellers. For anyone interested in collecting in general, then are you rich? is ideal for all vintage lovers (not just clothes!)

Boot Sale Sunday

Boo Hoo!! No Boot sales today, as it has been raining all night!

Never mind, it gives me the opportunity to update my photos and blog. I thought I would post my boot sale bargains so far this year:

An Adidas Vintage 70s Tracksuit Top for £3.

An authentic Mulberry weekender clipper bag in an aqua white colour-this was £1.

A Barbour Bedale jacket for a knockdown £8! As seen in February's issue of Grazia.

A River Island cute pearly pink quilted leather clutch purse for £1.

A Topshop Ossie style pussy bow floral tunic blouse for 50p.

I can't wait for a spell of dry weather, as hopefully there will be a few boot sales opening in Essex now, Willow Farm, Dunton, Stephensons Farm, plus others.
