Other People's Junk Makes Up My Wardrobe


 Hello petals, thought I would share with you two recent purchases, I got this blouse at the weekend from a local charity shop for £3.99. (Note, this is my first ever outfit I have posted that I've actually worn in work, I know I look proper professional!?) And the handbag is 1920s Egyptian style from eBay which was around £18.00, as you may gather my obsession with Egypt has not yet waned! 







Eric decided to join me again he thought I was going out so decided to bark at me until I picked him up, he is not very well behaved. 



























I love redoing my lipstick with this mirror, I am a geek, I believe the zip has been replaced but it smells like an old tomb trust me. What treasures have you bought recently?

  8. "smells like an old tomb" mwahhahaha Love it! Love your blouse, too, by the way, such a fabulous print. My wardrobe is mostly new, but other peoples' junk is literally my junk as almost everything else I buy is from estate sales and antique stores. I'm always a bit apprehensive about clothes because I'm so messy! I have a few vintage pieces (and lots of vintage shoes), but mostly 70s stuff that was cheap!

  10. Lauren: I am so messy it is a standing joke in my house if I wear white it will have tomato on it by the end of the day even if I haven't eaten any. I love 'junk' and most of my wardrobe smells musty/of old people.

    JoJO: Thanks, Eric looks cute but he is a menace hah
