pick a flower, make a wish its the 1970's.


Who said vintage has to come with an expensive price tag? I bought an old nightgown at a charity shop and cut the sleeves to make a long bow on the front. I didn't know what I would end up with but the outcome was a success!

In terms of last minute shopping, Primark never ceases to disappoint me! This snake-skin bag caught my eye as I was in the queue, the gold locket created a vintage and timeless feel which is needed in my wardrobe. It is versatile due to its size, I could use it on a day out with the girls or date with the boy. But the surprise did not stop there.. the bag only cost £3! BARGAIN! there was no way that I was going to let that bag go! 

































It's MUST-HAVE time fellow fashion lovers! For any occasion,or whatever the reason, it is without doubt that  you need a watch! Imagine running late for a class or work and your phone's out of juice and you need the time. A watch is a timeless accessory which any human being needs, but what a fashionista needs is a gold, vintage watch.  






I like to have a variety of handbags, whether it's a colour or a different shape am always keeping an eye out for the unconventional. I visited my brother in Birmingham and a friend took me to an outlet store. We saw this flower print vintage bag for only £3! Another successful bargain on my part, but in order to test your true skills go out with only £15 pounds in your pocket and see what you come up with, I will be posting the £15 challenge soon on LaRoseDesVent so stay tuned to see what I came up with ...


 

Necklaces are traditionally worn on the neck, but if you think outside the box you may also get away with a head piece as well. I had an old necklace which I stopped wearing a while ago, but I didn't wanna throw it away so I began to play with it and I ended up ripping some of the gems out leaving a gold round piece. To polish it I then added clear nail polish and tightened it with a safety pin which I hide behind my hair.
