Modern stripes and vintage leather, 80s Style

This weekends outfit post was a find from last weeks boot sale and a find from the charity shop. The striped tee is by TU at Sainsburys and was only £2.99 from the Cancer Research charity shop. I liked the colourways, very Autumnal and also the 3/4 length sleeves.


I was especially pleased to find this vintage leather skirt last weekend-I actually found two, the other one is a full 50s style, with panels and splits at the hem. Both are so soft and were a fabulous bargain of £6 each.


I'm feeling very 80s in this outfit, what with the leather skirt and the electric blue tights, its my decade of choice at the moment!!

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend so far!!

Oh what a fabulous skirt!

I've been looking for a nice leather skirt in the thrift stores for a loooong time now, with no luck. Every one I find is kind of "bleh" or just too shabby looking. Sigh. I'm hoping I'll get lucky in this search soon.

I love this electric blue color -- glad it's back in style these days. :o)
