'Small Change: The Newcastle Vintage Shop' Haul

Yesterday I went to Small Change vintage shop for the first time and it was lush! ^_^
My new favourite vintage shop! They have really low prices and so much stock to rummage through!
 Check them out on facebook: Small Change: The Newcastle Vintage Shop

What I bought:


Golfer print tapestry bag - £5
This is so cute, I love golf themed stuff, it reminds me of my Grandad.

Towel material jumper - £3
I'm wearing this today! So soft! There were loads of jumpers for £3 (long sleeved) and £2 (short sleeved) absolute bargain! 

Children's Christmas jumper - £1
This is the cutest thing! I had to get it, even though I'm not sure who's going to wear it. 

Children's knitted skirt - £1
Same with this little matching skirt! I thought this and the jumper would make such a cute little outfit together. 

Pink velvet top - £2
I can't wait to wear this with some high waisted denim shorts or mom jeans. I love the little tie at the bottom. 


Harley Davidson vest - £1
I love the studded detail on this! Small Change had a big selection of Harley Davidson tops, all £1 each!

Vintage shirt - £2
Thin summer vest. I'm going to wear this with high waisted denim shorts or black tube pants.




Bird patterned collar sweatshirt - £5
Small Change had a huge range of animal print sweatshirts all £5 each! I love this one because of the attached collar.

Total Spend: £20

Can't believe how much I got for my money when normally you would be paying £20 for just one vintage item! There's so much to look at too, me and my Mum spent 50 minutes there checking out all the stock!
Definitely worth a visit
Make sure you check out their vintage Barbies too, they'll bring back some memories!

Spain - Outfits

I'm honestly going to try and do more blog posts over the summer because I've been useless at doing them! 
I've just got back from a week in Spain with my boyfriend so I'm going to do an outfit post about some of the things I wore while I was there. 
The place we stayed was called Cap Salou, it is a small area near the town of Salou in the Costa Dorada area and we had a really nice time! The weather was amazing and I've got major holiday blues now that I'm back in England.

Collective outfit post

Hi, I haven't made a blog post in ages because I've been really busy over Christmas with family things, then I had school placement when I started uni again in January. But I want to get back into it so I'm just going to start off with a collection of outfits and accessories that I've worn recently and liked. I might also include a few other bits and pieces so sorry if this comes out a bit jumbled.

 This is what I wore on New Year's Eve which seems so long ago now! I had a house party with my flatmates at uni because we didn't want to pay ridiculous amounts in town plus it would have been really packed. It was a really good night and I got my New Year's kiss!

Wearing:
Velvet leotard - River Island
White tights - ebay
Frilly socks - Primark
Creepers - ebay
Star necklace - belongs to my Mum


This vintage denim shirt with embroidered Santas is available to buy from my etsy 


Bows Bows Bows
I was really excited because I only recently learnt how to tie a hair bow properly! I love it now and I can finally use this cute vintage scarf with apples on it. It still takes me a few goes to get it right sometimes and it can be really frustrating -.-

Wearing:
Bow - vintage scarf
Pinafore - Primark
Jumper - charity shop

Bow - vintage scarf

Polo shirt - Fred Perry
Doc marten styles shoes - Garage shoes

~ Hair ~
Also I dyed my hair back to brown about a month ago and I absolutely love it! I'm so happy that it doesn't get faded and need maintenance all the time like my red hair did. The colour I am now is very close to my natural colour but slightly darker. I used the £2 hair dyes that come in a red box, I can't remember the brand but you can get them at savers and wilkinsons.
Owl cardigan - New Look
I have also mastered the art of the messy bun! This hairband is supposed to be one of those wooly ear-warmers but since the weather is finally starting to get warmer I thought I could re-use it as a general stretch hairband; complete with pompoms.
Mini messy bun with spring themed accessories
Pinafores Galore
Since finishing my placement I have been trying really hard not to spend money on clothes because I already have so much stuff that I've hardly worn. However, I popped into Primark a few weeks ago and found these amazing corduroy pinafores in the sale for £5 each! I wasn't sure which colour so I thought it was safest to get both!


Doc Marten shoes
I really like the new Doc Marten shoes that everyone's been wearing recently, but they're so expensive. So I was so happy when I found a version of them in Garage shoes for only £30! I've worn them so much already since I got them; it's definitely been worth it.
Satchel by  'Paper Plane'
Frilly socks - Topshop

How I style them:
Cardigan - charity shop / t-shirt - gig / jeggings - River Island
Swallow blouse - Primark / jeggings - ebay / cardigan - Primark

Spring has sprung!
Finally the weather is starting to improve and it's not pitch black all of the time! It puts me in a much better mood when it gets to this time of year and I can start to wear my summer clothes again! Last weekend I went out for a meal with my Mum and her boyfriend and it was so nice that I even cracked out my sandals!
Wearing:
T-shirt - River Island
Trousers - Tophshop
Sandals - Primark
Flower hairclip- H&M

Thanks for reading! I will try to get back into the swing of posting more often, hope everyone is enjoying the lovely weather
