Bootylicious

My my my what a weekend, I've been to three carboots and this post is dedicated to my most of my weekend carboot buys and initial thoughts on how to model them. There are a couple of bits I've missed off which were a pure mistake, I mis-judged the size of a pair of grey leopard print leggings, they are a bit big but I'm toying with whether to keep them or get rid, also I had a little grey shrug but it had a hole in it :( only 50p each but even so.

Left to Right

New Look T-shirt - 50p

Oasis Sleeveless top - £1

Black sequin top - 50p

Cameo Ring  - £3

(quite pricey but I fell in love)

Miss Selfridge Shoes £2 - brand new

Brown leather boots - £1 - might have to sell these tho because they are very wide round the leg, I think they might be Evans ones because although they are a 6 they are very big both round the leg and the foot.

New Look Cropped Jacket £1

I am loving the print of this jacket, I seem to developing a real thing for cropped jackets (and waistcoats) at the moment, I'm attracted to them where ever I go. I think this jacket will look fab with white linen trousers and tan sandals - as well as what I've throw together below of course.

(Jacket worn with Gap cropped jeans from charity shop, M&S shoes £1 from previous carboot)

Couple of Soap and Glory Bits - 50p each

As a massive Soap and Glory fan I couldn't pass these up

Floral shoulder bag - 50p

Tea Cup & Saucer - 50p

River Island Purse - 50p

Book 50p

Necklace and 2 bangles - £1

Gosh where do I start with this lot, I adore it all.

Nautical style dress/top £1

(worn with Gap jeans from charity shop, TopShop jacket £3 from previous carboot and New Look nautical deck shoes 50p from previous carboot)

I can't see myself wearing this as a dress, although that's what I think it's meant to be, it's very light so perfect for summer. It caught my eye straight away and I thought it was a steal at £1. No idea what size or make it is as there are no labels. I don't know if you can see from the picture but it ties up at the front creating a little bib thing, very cute.

Skirt 50p

(Worn with topshop black vest 99p charity shop, vintage peep toe shoes charity shop)

A girl can never have enough summer skirts - says the girl who's wardrobe is bulging at it's hinges

Black Waist Coat 50p

Red Tulip Skirt 50p

Black Miss Selfridge Shoes (BN) £2

(worn with black TopShop vest 99p from charity shop)

I just knew as soon as I saw this skirt what a versatile piece it's going to be, and at 50p bargain. It's something that will carry me right through the winter, what a good investment.

Polka Dot Play Suit £2

(Worn with red tights £1, Miss Selfridge leopard print shoes £7.50 in the sale years ago, string of pearls some carboot sometime!)

I tried to haggle the stall holder down to £1 but she was having none of it, so I parted with £2 for this play suit which I'm really not sure about. I have real issues with my muscular thighs, they don't actually look too bad in the picture above but I'm still not totally convinced. I do know I would never go bare legged in one. What's the best way to wear it, I'm struggling for ideas. I tried to go a bit rockabilly with the red tights and leopard print shoes...

So that's my weekend carboot haul :)

P.S if you're wondering about the sunglasses, I'd not long woken up from a big sleep in the sofa and had puffy eyes

Lots of Love
