Vintage at Goodward

 This article really sums up how in just such a short space of time, fashion has turned on its head.
There is no escaping vintage, and for the most of it there really is some great pieces about.
It's also really great that if vintage is brought from a charity shop, awareness and money is coming into there too, win win situation for all!

Clogs - The Big Debate!

For a while now clogs have been in the fashion spotlight so there’s no denying they are here to stay for the autumn, but how do you feel about them? Until recently I’ve always been against them, thinking they look old fashioned and should be left to the dutch museums. However, the more I see them the more I like them! With that said, they have to be worn with the right clothes. I especially like them being worn with military style tailored trousers. Anyway, I tried some on in Topshop the other day and they were surprisingly comfortble! They are as heavy as I thought they would be, but the ones with straps on the back make them less heavy and after a while they don’t feel so heavy at all! So, what are everyone’s opinions on them? Would you buy a pair? Think they are a fashion disaster, or are they here to stay?

Here are the ones i’m lusting over at the moment:

Topshop Clogs £80

Woooaaah Fashion!

Hello and welcome… my first ever blog post!
After months of browsing fashion blogs, and encouragement from a fellow friend blogger, I have decided to start blogging regularly.
Yesterday I met with an old school friend and we shopped til we dropped in London. I went to Brick Lane for the first time, and thought the vintage shops were brilliant. So have decided to upload my purchases!

Jumper - Beyond Retro £6

Vintage brown pattern scarf - £3

Watch pendant - Brick Lane Market - £8

Green Maxi Dress - Brick Lane Thrift Store - £4

Vintage Green Rope Belt - £5

Brown and Lace Tee - H&M - £7.99

Grey Vest - H&M - £7.99

Tie dye skirt - Topshop - £5

Green asymetrical vest - Topshop - £10

Very happy with those purchases! Especially the watch pendant, am going to put it on a long chain and change ribbons on it to match what i’m wearing. What have you found that’s been a bargain lately? Have you got any bargain purchases that are now treasured items?
Anyway, I’m off out to town now… hope the rain stops!
