Ma's Garments

We are doing major home improvements at the moment, meaning that we had to empty our loft a couple of days ago. Imagine my surprise when I found all these old clothes! They belong to my mother and she used to wear them all the time.. except for the boots. She only wore them while motorbiking. But hey, I'd wear them now. Gotta be edgy. Labels include Topshop and Chelsea Girl. Sorry about the placing of the pics below btw, blogger sometimes doesn't  understand the importance of aligning photos, when both are small enough to go side by side.

HA! We all know that my photography is bad, but woah. You can't even really see it. I would wack up Picasa if i was using my lappy at home, but I'm up in London at my G-rents atm- so no editing here! I love this Aran cardigan, these days they are sooo expensive and in my opinion, not even that nice. But this is gold- I like the neckline- sort of squarish. Has a Desperate Housewives look about it I think.

All the garments above were in my loft. I just like the outfit. It's the sort of thing I've seen in the Sunday Times' what are yoooou wearing? page. Maybe I should send it in.. and stand in front of a brick wall like they always do. I like the high-waistedness of the jeans. It'd be nice to wear a crop top with them instead of a top tucked in with a belt, which is regrettably what I always do with high-waisted leg garments. Showing midriff is in. Tribal Prints are in too, double win!

At first I wasn't sure about the pinkness of the jacket with the redness in the tribal top. However, I feel it would work. Just because there's only a bit of red. And hey, I've never really thought red and pink clash much anyway. It's not as bad as yellow and green.

It looks like I have titchy feet. Don't worry I don't really, I just need to work on camera angles. Maybe Elena could help. Anyway I like wearing these. Especially in the snow, it's nice to not fall for once. Hell, I could go jogging on ice with these!!!!!!but I wouldn't.

PASTEL POWER!!!

 It annoys me to think that this outfit has been locked up in my loft for ten years. Ten summers have passed- all of which I could have worn this. (I haven't really grown widely since I was 8) Pink shorts. PINK. I actually tried them with the bomber jacket above but i thoght it would be a bit risky. I also thought.. 'hmm pastel pink shorts+ tribal top+midriff' but then I thought that would = Fearne Cotton. Too many trends at once- don't wanna look keen or anything. But anyway I'd wear this outfit with white sandals in the summer. Or white wedges.
