I stripped and got changed in a forest for these photos

Experimentation in fashion is vital to find your style and this week I have been experimenting with some Modern Victorian/Boho styles. Collections of wristbands, embroidered delicate tops and rustic leather boots are must-haves. 

  Charity Shop £3- originally from Next, kids department
Teamed with my Topshop black Joni jeans- favourite jeans 
Comfiest fit but always look great and can easily be dressed up



This was Sarah's top and from Miss Selfridge quite a few months ago now unfortunately. I found out, she has never worn this beauty!!! Love the embroidery and the arms on this top are an amazing bat-wing style; not usually a style I am drawn to but this one won me over with lace and well its overwhelming beauty.

Finally, these are my Kurt Geiger black leather ankle boots I managed to track down on eBay. I love them to pieces and can't wait until it gets that little bit colder to get my wear out of them. They go with everything and can complete any and every outfit but most of all they're KURT GEIGER and make me feel fabulous. 
So try mixing it up a little. 
Change can be difficult but it's style and it's meant to be messed with. You might think you've found yours but there's always more clothes to fall in love with.

Rock it from Rokit

This is an incredibly belated post but I finally went to Camden and I'm in love with my future home! Vintage shops have always been a passion of mine, and charity shops are my first love, but Rokit is a new level. A vintage clothing and accessories shop, Rokit first opened in 1986 in Camden  Town and has since grown in stores and the treasures they sell. 
Already wearing my "Mom" jeans from Topshop, and a Ted Baker black embellished vest from a local Charity Shop, I purchased at Rokit the cardigan shown above for just £13!!!!!!! 

I adore the combination of patterns and materials it is made from and couldn't be happier with my first winter purchase. There are so many beautiful colours within it meaning it will go with so much and can immediately add that vintage touch to any modern outfit, mixing the eras!  


Once again this is all Sarah's fabulous photography and I had the cutest day with her putting up with me stopping at every market stool.
Can't you just tell how excited I am in the pictures above?!
So go and check out Camden if you haven't already, and if you have, then.. well, go again! I know I can't wait to!!!
I hope you find some equally tremendous treasures
