Summery things and lovely bargains

So I felt a bit summery, and ransacked my draws for floral, summery, festive (as in festivaly), and erm vintagey stuff! I think I need to say vintage less though... maybe i will start heading for retro, its kinda more fun and bright I suspose. What do you think of these clothes? Oooh, purple font, get me!



So i pulled out some of my floral favourites and festival summery things...



skirt: £2 primark, Top: £3 Topshop sale, Bag: £5 Portobello Stall


Floral blouse: £3 charity shop (origanally Topshop), Skirt: £2 Primark

Festival outfit



Shorts: £5 H and M, Floral top: £5 Topshop sale




Granny chic knit cardi (hand-me-down)











Bag: £5 vintage stall
Belt: £1 primark
Desert boots: Clarkes



Leather






Vintage dress + cardi combo





Skirt: H and M sale £5





Shorts: £1.50, vintage charity shop


Origanally from Next kids, they look topshop I think









Festival dress from Glastonbury


Flower garland from another festival






My festival outfit

Close up festival outfit


(old hair)






Green dress: dance shop?


Belt: Primark £1








Me and my friend cut this dress to make it shorter and change the shape.












Eye and hook topshop 'vintage tunic'


sale: £16 i think





Thank you for reading!

Look out for the next post on, erm, hair styles!


Oh, and one more thing. Just a little thought.
What do you think of Primark?
If you live somewhere else, it is a very cheap but good clothes (etc) store
where you can buy cheap things like my spotty skirt
and it is similar to Walmart
I think

    Yeah, Primark's Awesome, more similar too Forever 21 though I think.
    I adored all your outifts and pieces and that satchel was only £5??
    I REALLY gotta get down to Portobello Market!!
    Although, I live quite a long way from London! Arghh!

    Thank you! rebecca- i think I might have to get that necklace it is gorgeously bohemian! And Freta, i really recommend you come down for a weekend and visit camden, brick lane and Portobello market in summer, becuase it isn't very nice when its cold! Thank you for the lovely comments, much appreciated!

    I completely love all of the florals! Especially the shorts. I've been saying retro instead of vintage lately. Hmm only been into Primark once and didn't buy anything, so can't have a valid opinion on it lol.

  9. Flossie, Monster Munch Blog25 January 2011 at 09:38

    Thank you everyone! Yes, I do love the shorts and only £1.50! I got a fake fur coat there too for £4!!! or something like that. Yeah, I have been to Glastonbury about 5 times or maybe 6, and im going to edinburgh and maybe some others this year as well as Glasto. My mum works there thats why!

    Thank you all!!

    Such nice floral and girly clothes you got there, wish it was summer already and i could wear similar things! And though i've never been in any of Primark shops, i've seen some good stuff they sell and the prices were dirt-cheap, so i'd like to go and see what they offer :)

    It's so cheap! But quality wasn't always good..
    Anyway I wish there was one where I live, too, or at least an online shop don't you think?

    Lisa: yes, i agree. The fast moving but long tedious queue and primark being a busy, big and hot shop is detracting, but I do find many bargains there. Unfortuanatly, many others happen to have the same clothes!
    Christine, Lottie, Jennifer, Ginger snap, sienna and anyone else i have missed out!
    And ohhh award sounds great but i cant acess your blog and the heated blanket confuses me! Please erm message me or something? Thanks
