This is one of the first high street things I spotted online & then seeked out in real life to try on, size up & purchase. This probably puts me about a decade behind everyone else but for some reason I've always found online browsing & shopping browsing seperate. Mainly because I spent last year online browsing without being able to real life shop, and because I think John Lewis has this whole internet shop not killing real shop thing down.
Plus, River Island, who knew? I also got an amazing houndstooth pencil skirt that I've been looking for in vintage shops for the past year or so. It was also made in Britain which is pretty rad, no? They're probably the second brand to change my mind about this year, along with Ted Baker. Maybe my hipster/snobbiness is wearing off. I still can't touch a lot of things without screwing up my face or reeling back in horror. But we're working on it. I can seek out the denim, silk, cotton etc between all the polyester and viscose. & I will dammit!
I love your trousers, they seem a lot more wearable than the black and white striped ones i've seen!
ReplyDeleteThese were the only thing I liked in the whole shop when I went, they look so cute on you xxx
ReplyDeleteI got the exact same ones haha but im afraid they look better on you. I was hoping they would stretch me and make me look taller :D xx
ReplyDeleteThank-you for the comment my lovely,
ReplyDeleteI love your header it's perfect. River Island is good at surprising!
Lots of Love,

are we starting a small revolution here? this made in thing is kinda catching on don't you think, seen a few people blogging about it now. good on you finding out this info, made in britain roll on the good times. stripy pants reminds me of the horrors but these are softer and have a 90s vibe about them. i don't have a reference and might be wrong but that's what comes in me head.
ReplyDeletecool bottoms :)

I love those trousers. I have a pair the same pattern as them which were from a charity shop. I cut them into shorts though as they were a weird shape on me lol.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely comment btw. We are hoping to do more vintage fairs over the summer. I will post any details up on my blog. : ) xx
