Swimwear

I don't think, in a million years, I could have seen myself buying a swimsuit after I was 11 years old, BUT THEY'RE JUST SO BEAUTIFUL. I'm having a tan plan holiday this year so a bikini will be needed for maximum tannage, but next year it is in the family grapevines that we're going back to Florida before we all get old and our parents look ridiculous chasing a bunch of 20 and 30 year olds around Islands Of Adventure.
However Florida means WATER RIDES, and with American food I don't think I can face running around with my belly out all day so a swimsuit is on the cards. I've done a bit of searching already, keeno, and these are the beauts I have decided I need in my life.

OBSESSIONS.

I go through stages with clothes. I'll be obsessed with a few things at a time, right now it's the 90s + shirts and trying to resist the temptation of getting  my nose pierced. Seeing as LFW starts tomorrow i've already started making a mental list of all the clothes I plan on looking out for in the vintage shops + all the little boutiques.

My first obsession is Bolo Neck ties, originally seen on Cowboys + Line Dancers. I need one, my shirts feel naked and cowboyless without it. This kid was too cool for his decade.

Everytime I go to London I go on the vintage leather jacket hunt. I'm not going to fail this time because if i can't get a cheap vintage one, i'm going to get this UO Renewal babe. I bought tons of spike studs intending to do up my Topshop jacketm, but the leather's so fake & shitty I don't want to waste them.

TIE DYE. It might be my seriously summer lusting/nostalgia i've got going on right now, but I need it in my life, I can sense a serious comeback over summer if all this 90s revival contines.

I never bought into the creeper thing at the end of last year and it's the biggest regret of my life. Instead I'm going to go one up and start hunting for some platformed shoes. These Underground ones are actually ideal, UO also have similar ones. NEW LIFE AIM = BE 6FT.

romping about.

The sun is shiiiining la la la laa! I don't really know the rest of that song but it seemed appropraite seeing as it's practically the first day it's been sunny and i'm not working yaaay! Thought i'd show off my new romper, from the urban outfitters sale, I feel like Betty Boop in it, but it is literally the hardest thing to do up EVER. I will never get steaming in this, playsuits are hard enough to get out of without adding this weird rope obstacle.  I also went to the sunday car boot sale this weekend and got theee most brilliant things ever,  a retro kodak camera which is probably shit but we'll see, a pig butter dish and a 7up phone, a vintage bag (which is reeking of fags, the smokey joe), all for under a fiver! And who doesn't need a 7up phone? 

 

Here's some stereotypical garden photos of my romper, ENJOY THE SUNSHINE LOVEYS!
