dress - Beyond Retro / bag - vintage Russell and Bromley

Hello all, long time no see! Hope everyone enjoyed their delightfully rainy bank holiday as per?

These photos are from last Saturday when I went to see the Audrey Hepburn exhibition and a look round Brick Lane. If you get a chance to go and see the exhibit I would definitely recommend it, although what I would say try and not look at your reflection in any of the portraits because you will feel very, very ugly. It isn't a large exhibition but it feels really immersive, which sounds ridiculous but is true. It really reinforces why Audrey is such an inspiration for many, including myself.

Following the exhibition I went and looked Brick Lane, which I totally miss whilst I'm up at uni in Birmingham. I have to try and get my vintage shopping fill before I head back up! My dress was purchase at the start of the summer from Beyond Retro's Brighton store and hadn't really gotten round to wear it, so whilst it's stiller relatively warm I was determined I was going to wear it. In theory, it's kind of everything I don't like in  a dress? Pink, drop waist, all things I don't usually like/wear, but I think this dress is just perfect! Maybe proof I should stop being so close minded!

Dungarees and dots



    




Welcome
Hello all and welcome to my first ever blog post! I hope you are all ready for the wild ride that will be 'Ms. Bizarre vintage', here I will be documenting my day-to-day style, shopping habits and any exciting things I may do with my life, although that is unlikely due to the mundane nature of said life, but we can hope.


For my outfit the other day I was channelling some land girls vibes in my latest outfit, having rediscovered these dungarees in my wardrobe (if I had money they'd be Freddie's of Pinewood ones, but we'll have to wait for payday for those!). I am now a total dunga convert, they are the comfiest things ever and OH THE POCKETS. I would recommend to anyone, but do be prepared to match with various toddles you may see out and about!  They're also good on summer days which a bit on the gusty side, removing the stress of wearing a dress in a breeze.








































I'm also sporting my Pip Jolley necklace, (see above!) which I won in the British Belles raffle, considering I've been staring longingly and at Pip's website for months now that win was pretty awesome! It's the cutest thing ever and I've been wearing it with preeetttty much everything.
