October eBay Love

With a long running eBay addiction, my Wishlist is always over flowing. Here are some of my favourites this week. Some I've bought, some I'm just enjoying looking at for now.

1. Ripped Skinny Jeans - £3.99

2. Totoro Onesie - £18.99

3. Cut Out Floral Blouse - £13.99

4. Dogtooth Jumper - £13.90

5. Neon Jumper - £12.99

6. Sleeveless Fur Vest - £16.49

7. Fur Trim Ankle Boots - £20

It's a bit mean of me to have added the boots as they were a one off find but I LOVE them so couldn't leave them out. I've been looking for cute ankle boots that don't make me feel frumpy so hopefully these will do the job. 

The Totoro onesie arrives this week and is the softest, cosiest thing I've ever worn. It also has a zip so you don't have to take it off and freeze every time you go to the bathroom. Genuis!

With the rest being shipped from China, I always put together outfits in my head that I've forgotten by the time it all arrives. Maybe this time I'll make a note so I can update with outfit posts once they're here.

Winter Is Coming

This week, my summer dresses and winter coats have swapped places. Dresses shoved to the back of the wardrobe, my rail is now weighed down with about 20 coats, because despite hating winter, I seem to subconsciously collect outerwear.

This weekend I went back home to the country, where I topped up my winter wardrobe some more. East London might be great for vintage finds, but there's nothing like small town charity shops for real one-off bargains. Outfit posts to come!

My obsession with ugly yet beautiful knitwear lives another year, starting with this guy.

For more sensible days, I topped up my endless collection of striped tops.

I won't lie, I bought this mainly because it looks like loads of Tooty Frooties. It also matches (read: clashes) perfectly with my new Vans.

My mum tried this on and looked like a complete 80s throwback, so I bagged it for myself! It didn't come with the fur collar, but I probably won't ever wear it without.

When these jeans were in H&M it was literally impossible to find them in anything under a size 12, so THANK YOU to whoever gave them in to Oxfam so that I could finally pick them up for £3.99!

Wishlist vs. Wardorbe: Winter Shoe Edition

Shamefully, I fit almost every female stereotype when it comes to shoes. Here's what I want for winter vs. what I'm working with.

1. Jeffrey Campbell - O-Quinn

2. H&M - Platform Boots

3. Deena & Ozzy - Lottie Suede Lace Ups

4. Dr Martens - 4161

5. Kenzo X Vans

6. Ellie Clay - Trigger

7. Topshop - Argo

I have an endless amount of black boots so picking my favourites for winter was hard, but here are my winter shoe staples - just until I get around to buying all of the above.

1. Clothesminded - Two Tone Canvas Lace Ups

2. River Island - Patent Cut Out Boots

3. Primark - Cut Out Flat Boots

4. Office - 3 Eyelet Shoe

5. Shop in Shoreditch - Converse 113326

6. AliExpress.com - Silver Cut Out Shoes

7. Dr Martens - Original 8 Eyelet Boots

8. Schuh - Vans Era III Two Tone Trainers

As you can see there's a bit of a running theme. When it comes to shoes, I know what I like and I don't stray far from it: bold, black, and chunky enough to turn walking into a chore. At least they'll keep me firmly on the floor in the winter winds.

I threw in a couple of 'sensible' options for good measure.
