london-1a

I had a work type trip to London recently - which happily coincided with the Lovebox festival. And a long overdue visit to my lovely friends Pa and Nico. And a return to the ‘having a good time’ thing that has been wrapped in a ball of sleep and effort for the last month or so….and what a lovely way to come back…

Here’s a little round up of the clothes from the trip, working from the top down: 

Sleeveless denim jacket : Charity shop €5.00

Sequinned dress : Charity shop €5.00

50’s style clear glasses : Penneys.

Studded belt : Bay Trading €12.00

Silver bangles : Charity shop €2.00

Boots : Zara €80.00

Black hat : H&M menswear £1.oo

Stripy sequinned waistcoat : H&M £10.00

Black t-shirt : H&M €6.00

Black mini skirt : Penneys €4.00

Tights cut in to knee socks : Penneys €2.50

Little black fringed bag (belonging to Laura) : Penneys

Green hat : Charity shop €5.00 (..ish…?)

Black jeans cut in to shorts : H&M €19.99 (apx)

Gold cuffs : Charity shop €5.00 each. 

Coral ring on little finger : K Kajoux €20.00

Green ring : YSL (birthday present)

Fringed leggings : £13.00 Public Beware, Brick Lane, London (incredible shop!)

Paisley be-shoulder-padded jacket : £31.00 Public Beware. 

Also I would particularly recommend falling in love with Chromeo, who played at Lovebox. Dave told me about them a few times, but you really do have to go and see them live to fully fall into that said same love. They’re playing Tripod in November - maybe see you there!

Thanks to Pa & Nico & Juanita for having me to stay! The backs of your heads are ridickulas! Ok-er-er-er-er?
