Vintage jewellery haul

 

 

 

I may have done a little damage when I had a wander around my local vintage shop, 'It's Vintage Darling'.  I picked up these two short necklaces for £6.00 each and each pair of earrings was £4.00. I understand the above earrings are not to everyone's taste and may be appear to be slightly Pat Butcher but I don't care because I can't quite get enough of them, especially paired with a plain black t.

 

As many of you may not know I don't have my ears pierced in fact I don't have any piercings what so ever or tattoos, hence why the earrings are clip on. But they do also double up as 'collar accessories' and add a little something extra when clipped onto a denim shirt.

 

I don't have much to say about these pieces as I think the pictures speak for themselves, however I am thinking of doing a post about the vintage shop as it is this hidden gem and especially since it is an independent shop run by the most helpful and loveliest girl I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Might even see if she's free to answer a couple of question about opening her vintage shop. Anyway that's enough pondering, unfortunately I have essays calling my name. Oh the joy...

 

Seven things sunday: HAPPY SONGS

We all have those songs that as soon as you here the first beat you are already on your feet giving it everything you got and dancing like a crazy person, in short the songs that make you instantly happy. I have a few selected songs that if I'm not having the best of days or I'm feeling a little down I like to listen too, to lift my spirits. And after having a good dance around my room I always feel a whole lot better and realise what I was worrying about was nothing to worry about at all. These songs always but me in a better mood so I thought I would share these old school cheesy classics with you.

1. Hanson - MMMBop
2. Sister Hazel - Change Your Mind
3. Fleetwood Mac - Go Your Own Way
4. Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell - Ain't no mountain high enough
5. Harry Belafonte - Shake, Shake, Senora
6. Fleetwood Mac - Don't Stop
7. Al Green and Annie Lennox - Put a Little Love in your Heart
 

Spring Nail Polish

 

Barry M - Full Throttle, Miss Sporty - 480, Barry M - Eat My Dust, Barry M - Sugar Apple,

Rimmel - Fancy a Dip

 

It use to take seriously strong will power for me to walk into Boots or Superdrug and not pick up a couple of new nail polishes, but these days I hardly ever wear nail polish let alone buy it. The reason being, when I am constantly making things and drawing my nail polish doesn't look good for long. However with having a couple of weeks off Uni I have fallen back in love with nail polish, so much so I actually bought two new nail polishes from Superdrug...SHOCK. Those two being from the Barry M Quick Dry Range. A really pretty pastel Orange and Dusty Blue Colour. You would think being an artist I would be better at describing colours but evidently not.  I'm not really a colourful kind of Gal when it comes to my style so a pop of colour on the nails is the perfect colourful accessory.

 

Now I just need to pick one colour for today? HMmmm

 

Hope you all have a lovely day.
