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!

shirt - H&M via charity shop / skirt - forever21 / belt - ebay 

Hello all, I hope you are enjoying the rain of the british summer, but we had a good run didn't we? This outfit was sported by me to my friend's birthday barbecue. I was channeling a 1940s cabaret singer in a show by the beach. This could really be finished off with a cocktail in a coconut, if i'm being honest. 

Although I do spend a ridiculous amount of time browsing high street stores, I very rarely find things which fit my vintage style, but that's half the fun. I LOVE ME A CHALLENGE. I picked up this skirt in the sale section of forever 21, which i don't actually usually go into, not out of any snobbery, but just because it's so FRICKEN BRIGHT it gives me a headache ha. It only cost me £6 and the print is awesome and bright, I couldn't resist it. 

I'm also sporting my what katie did bra underneath this shirt, which never fails to elicit some odd looks, but I always think it create a more authentic look. I think I might start a #pointyboobsclub, message me if you want to be part of this exclusive club. We can get badges.
