So I really wanted this cheetah print jacket I found at an outdoor flea market the other day. Yea yea yea, I know I already have this and this but I would’ve sold one of them for it. Guess how much the seller wanted for it? $2500. Sod THAT for a laugh….

Didn’t see anything else that caught my eye but we took these Abbey Road/Beatle pics before we left. Didn’t fancy wearing a coat so I bundled up in layers so I could go with a jacket.

    Highly highly jealous of the bag.

    Love the jeans too! I did a blog post on CUSTOM bell bottom jeans the other day. I’m a big fan.

    Glad you didn’t go for the $2500 coat. Geez!

    “Sod THAT for a laugh….” haha I love your English colloquialisms (I’m from Australia), it makes me always read your posts, not just look at the pictures. Love the outfit, I thought you would have worn a maxi skirt with this this outfit, but I’m stoked you chose jeans!

    Hi just happened to stumble on your blog….great style. I couldn’t help but notice the black fringe bag listed as Gypsy Nation which is Martha’s vintage. Jackie from Queen of Hearts, made that bag and I know she put at least 20 hours into it, they are both AMAZING women and my vintage guru-heroines. They share the same booth… Just wanted to give her the credit that’s due 🙂

    Really love your style!…However please stop endorsing Forever21…I used to work there and the clothes are made in sweatshops…There is a documentary called Made in LA…check it out…and again please don’t support this company….
