Camden Town

     Went to visit Camden Market today and took some pictures of what I found; some interesting and cool pieces. Some of them passed over my budget but I still thought it was good to have an alternative selection.
£ 35

     The bow in the front and the details on the shoulders makes the outfit look sophisticated. The ballerina skirt adds a touch of softness.

£ 25

     Ohh this vintage looking outfit is one of my favourites. The butterfly arm bits are really nice and pretty. Its a very classic look. Wear it with black tights and high heels you can't go wrong.

£55

     My favourite found of the day!!! This dress really got my attention. The material and the sleeves make it original. I'm sure once you are wearing it you probably feel like a greek goddess. The detail of the scarf shows that you can wear it during the day for an afternoon tea or something similar, the only thing is that it went a bit above my budget.

£25

     When I looked at this dress, I thought of a bright sunny day in Spain. Wearing red lipstick and white Ray Ban glasses you will have a fatale look.

Second option

I just found this other look, which is similar to the Alexander Wang collection in my opinion.
This vintage knit vest top with roses can go with black leggings, light or dark skinny jeans with a ankle boots.

£35

Beautiful! Romantic! It's a really sweet knit vest. The falling roses gives the idea of the start of chemical romance. Flirty.

£15

Leggings are a good and practical accessory. Black leggings are one piece you need to make sure you have in your wardrobe!

This outfit will cost me total of £49,75.
The vest is from Rockit and the leggings from Asos .

Vintage

Vintage is what I usually like to wear if I'm out and about around East London. Different place, different outfit. 70's dresses and retro blouses are on my wishlist. You really have to make an effort to look flawless. Make up must include RED lipstick.

My obsession a few months ago was a Fur Coat. I really wanted a vintage one. I know most of you out there are against it, but anyway I ended up buying a vintage one. So, I don't feel so guilty! For my despair the fur on my left sleeve, completly ripped off. Ahhhh! I was shocked. I only wore it twice. So, I brought back to the shop and I got a £90 credit on any Rockit store in London. Good one!

For today's post I will focus on my task of getting a vintage outfit. Don't know if in the end of my challenge I will choose them, but it will definitely be one of my options.

Option one: Love necklaces, I think they are one of the things you MUST wear. It gives that femine look. Only £12


Okay, some of you might think that I've choosen the wrong dress. For me it is ideal to go for a play in WestEnd theatres. Look closely to the detail of the flower and the gold around the wrist and waist really adds to the outfit. Wear with a pair of black tights and vintage shoes. Only £35.
This outfit will cost me total of £47. The dress is from Absolute Vintage Absolute Vintage and the neckless from Rockit.

.... and the Best of the Best

Alexander Wang - is one of the youngest designers at the moment. He is making his way to the top very very quickly. I love Alexander Wang's Fall '09 collection. He always keep the rock'n roll style, yet chic and sophisticated. It is attracting loads of women around the globe.

This beautiful sweater cost only: £450
It is completly out of my budget.

My taste of clothes

As most of us know London Fashion Week just finished and for me to get inspired for a up-to-date outfit I went and checked on a few of my favourites designers collections spring / summer 2009. My favourites are:

Margaret Howel

The first look feels like you are a schoolgirl again. The shorts and sandals make it feel like summer is just around the corner.
The second one is more casual yet very sexy. In this babydoll looking dress and the tights, people wonder what else does she have to give. Great!!!


Jaeger

The first dress looks like it is made from the finest material. It will fit it perfectly on a private boat somewhere in Cannes. Yes!!
The other one is more for a walk on the beach, when you have already soaked up all the sun. Beautiful color!! Purple is the color of the moment in my opnion.


Paul Smith

Both these dresses are the best ones for a night out in London town. They make you look sexy, provocative and mysterious. Love it!!
