IDOLS CRAVING BALLERINAS

Charity shop shopping is the best no? I went a week or so ago now but this is the first opportunity I've had to post the gems I found! I set out looking for books, but this old man Americana shirt screamed or whispered "Prada" at me over the rails of polyester skirts & fleece jumpers & hypnotised me into buying it without checking it was long enough to wear without bottoms. Luckily it is. Well, denim shorts, but let us not get picky. & now I have an awesome shirt dress with cars all over it.

Because I like to think I am not influenced by the catwalk TRENDS they pump out every season I would like to say I would've bought this anyway because I have a weakness for odd prints. But I probably wouldn't have. Rocking it a whole season early does make me feel very fashion-editor smug though! Weird observations: my camera must be on a tilt & wearing thick woollen tights in photos makes me look like I have posterised legs.
