Western


I wore this yesterday to a the Cardiff Blogger meet up. It was such an amazing day, was amazing to meet everyone, although it's sooo weird seeing people you've only ever seen on a computer screen in real life! 

Firstly a few of us met at BB coffee and Muffins and had free drink and muffins :D! It was AMAZING! All the muffins are made freshly every day so they were super delicious! We then went for a some light shopping (blogger style) Was gutted that some of the vintage shops were just shutting though :( Also, I'm not happy that none of the other bloggers stopped me from spending £50 in Urban Outfitters haha: Skint for the rest of the month now! 

The final event was the bit I was the most exited about... We went to the management suite in the new St Davids Shopping Centre and the lovely people there picked gorgeous clothing/shoes and accessories from some of the top stores and talked to us about all the ranges... There was also FREE Krispy Kreme dohnuts! We all had MASSIVE goody bags full of samples and discount codes GALORE! There was also a raffle where every blogger won something..

Just want to say a massive thank you to the lovely girlies who organised everything :) 

Wow... very grainy picture! Soz

Shirt: Motel
Shorts: Vintage Levi
Neck-tie: Bootsale
I actually changed tights after these pictures were taken, as there was a massive hole in these ones! How awesome is my little neck tie? Think next time I go to the boot sale I'm gonna pick up more of them! (there was a store there that's there every week) 

Btw... I GOT THE SUPERVISOR JOB I APPLIED FOR!!! But I don't know how I'm gonna fit in time to blog lol! I will fit it in, but just don't know how I will haha! So I'm in uni and have a 30 hour job and I blog.. my time management skills are gonna be put to the test this next year! I'm sure I'll be ok though!

That's all from me anyways :)

Boot Sale...

On Sunday I went to Cheddar Bootsale...

It wasn't as awesome as it normally is.. The weather was a bit hit or miss so not as many sellers turned up as usual! I was hoping to find some individual chunky knit jumpers and some one off clothing! I wasn't successful in that BUT...

I FOUND THE MOST AMAZING HUT/STALL TYPE THING!! 

Everything in the little hut was cowboy/Indian inspired. Think copious amount of dream catchers, Deer/Stag/Ram/Buffalo heads galore, Fur coats and fringed waistcoats, aztec bags etc etc. Honest to God I was in my element. My dad was angry at me coz I'm supposed to look 'uninterested' as the prices won't be so high or something lol.. but seriously I couldn't contain my excitement. I kept saying to the owner 'I want to live here' 'I want everything.' I wish I had my own money to spend as I would have bought pretty much all the clothes in there but I was spending Dad's money so I held back on a lot of things. Here's what I did buy...


I'm not sure what type of skull this is.. maybe a ram? I absolutely love it.. although it needs a fair bit of work, I need to re-mount it (Dads job) and paint the base before it takes center stage in my bedroom.. but I think it will look awesome! 


This dream catcher is one of the most unusual I've ever seen.. It has like a big patch of fur in the middle which is awesome! I think this is gonna look amazing in my room! 



Not really sure if I'll actually wear this.. it's one of them tie things that cowboys wear; I have no idea what they're called. I think it will look pretty cool with a shirt with the top button done up! 

So my obsession with animal heads/skulls continues... lol! But I really cannot wait to go back to this hut thing.. I'm gonna have a proper look at the clothes in there and hopefully buy myself a fur coat or a fur waistcoat. Oh and I'm so angry at myself I found a gorgeous aztec print bag but forgot all about it when I seen everything else! 
lots of love
P.s I've gone a bit mad on picnik and decided to cross process EVERYTHING haha
