Criminal Damage hoodie, £30

So as you may have seen in my last post I had gone to Camden for some well needed shopping! I promised to show you the items I bought so here they are. Apart from my hoodie, everything else is vintage. The shirt and jumper I bought in a popular shop in Camden called Rokit. The shorts I don't remember the name of the store, but it was amazing inside! They had great costumes, satchel bags, other bags, shoes... everything. And there was this rale of shorts all for £10! So I bought 2 :) They are lovely and I find myself wearing them so often!

I also bought these sort of tights but I couldn't find them to take a photo with, oops.
So here's some I found the same online:

9th April 2011

Shirt from H&M, skirt from Primark, tights from Primark, bag off eBay,

necklace from Topshop, ring from Claire's (I think!), bracelets from Primark
[I also wore my Urban Outfitters silver shoes & some glittery black socks but you can't see them here]

Me with my mums Canon AE-1 she's letting me use! <3 (((Photos to come!)))

I WENT TO CAMDEN YESTERDAY!
Bought some lovely lovely lovely stuff which I shall post in my next post when I've taken some photos of it all... But yeah, as you can see, I got some items in ROKIT! It's a popular vintage store in Camden. I bought a jumper which is burgundy red with a cool design on it (don't know how to explain) and I also got a lilac shirt which was in the sale for £5 :)
We went around loads of the cool shops and the markets and looked in the awesome Cyberdog, it's so crazy in there, aha.
We went into more vintage stores and there was this one were they had many vintage shorts all £10 each, a lot of them were small sizes so I was pleased because the ones I wanted fitted me greatly. They are both sort of high-waisted, one is a light blue denim and the other is a slightly faded black denim.
I also got a American Apparel look-alike hoodie, burgundy red also, for £30. It was cheaper than buying one in AA as the ones in there are £40+ so at least I saved a tenner. I bought it in size large as when I went back for it someone had bought the medium I was going to buy and they only had XS and L & XXL... but I'm sort of glad it's a large as I can pull the sleeves over my hands when it's cold and it's really snug.
Oh and I also got some tights like these ones, (middle girl). I fell in love with them when I first saw them shown in an Olsenboye ad and then seeing them in Topshop after but I always waited to see them cheaper so the ones I finally got were £8... not too bad.
Also! You many have noticed I have 'dip-dyed' my hair, it's only done with a spray on so it's not permanent but I felt like trying it out because I just love this style! I bought mine from Superdrug for £3.

Thanks for reading, it's now my Easter Holidays so hopefully there will be more frequent outfit posts for you all!
Much love, Isabella XOXO

CAPE

do not use these photos anywhere else (c)

My friend made a cape in her for her Textiles GCSE. Here's me wearing it! 25th March 2011

We're just physical creatures of the underworld

Dress made by a friend of mine, glasses from Primark, Doctor Martens boots

Hey guys, the weather has been so much nicer these past few days so I got to get out my Summer dress! It's one my friend made out of an old top from a charity shop and she was kind enough to give it to me :)

The Doc Martens used to be my mums, she's had them for over 20 years! So you could say they are retro! So glad she found them as I was almost resorting in buying a new pair which could have cost me somewhere around £80, glad I didn't have to! With me and my mum it's always the case of 'what's mine is yours' so she lets me borrow things from her and she can borrow my jewellery etc. Very handy having a mother who has some great stuff to hand down to you!

Love & Peace,

Isabella ....xoxo

Hey everyone :) Thank you so much for 60 followers <3

I hope you are all well and I would like to apologise for my posts being a bit late, these photos here were actually taken on 12th March, so that's five days ago. The weather was lovely to do outfit photos so they turned out quite nice and I didn't have to edit them apart from 2. Things are pretty busy for me now with school and such so I am sorry if I don't post as much as I would like to.

In this outfit I liked to team up my jacket and the cardigan together to add a touch of bright colour, I think it works well, the contrast - but I ended up taking them off as it go warmer, which was lovely as it hasn't been like that for quite a while! This skirt I've had since I was about 10 but it still fits! The top I'm wearing, I remember was £12 from a store in Brighton but I can't quite recall the name... it was something like Lavender, Lily, Lola's..... but I really can't remember. They do many T-shirt designs with a great variety of things on them and I just love this one! It's the Starbucks & Rolling Stones logo put together - clever!

Kinda annoyed I forgot to put on any jewellery what-so-ever in these photos but never mind.

Love, Peace, XoXo.

P.S. I made a Flickr account, check it out here.
It includes some of my photography. Images such as; nature, objects, outfits (me), places.

LONDON CALLING

Jumper from charity shop, skirt from Primark, tights from Topshop, Doctor Martens boots

On the 24th February, my mother, my friend and my friends mother (shown in first photo) all went up to my hometown London, we went to the London Design Museum. It was really cool as they had art work from Erte, Antonio Lopez, all these fashion sketches from Karl Lagerfeld and other designers. There was also a big screen where catwalk shows were being shown <3 Also, there was dresses displayed, one being from Lanvin Spring/Summer '11. After the museum we went along the river thames which was really lovely. I had a great day :)

Here are some photographs I took;

Would like to apoligise for this post being a bit dated and late.
I've done an outfit post today in my garden and I'll be posting them up shortly too, just going to wait a bit for people to get the chance to see this one first.
Much love,
Isabella
