Oasis Dresses

A couple of lovely Oasis dresses.

I think this summer is going to be very floral for me. 

Wear dresses with:

Sunglasses by Janz and Cooper

70s Platform sandals by Casadei

Straw panama on top.

Family is Important

Marie wears embroidered ribbon as a bracelet. Seeing this made me think of being at school so feeling a a little bit nostalgic, I had a little look online and ordered a role of 'Makeda Matheson' tape. It was really cheap but i'm not quite sure what i'm going to do with it.... A very narcissistic belt?

Janz and Cooper

These frames by Janz and Cooper are perfection. Hand crafted in England they are interesting yet understated, i'll definately make the trip to their Harvey Nichols pop up shop to have a try on.

Oh Nico: Love the black tortoise shell and the shape of these frames.

I can't get enough of this style. I think this would be my colour of choice.

.... One last pair in this style.

Rose coloured glassses

These would be great reading glasses- All their frames can be fitted with prescription lenses.

Multi Buying

I know people like to say multi buying is a fashion 'faux pas' but I do it all the time. If I like something alot I want it in a couple of colours because i'm not someone who likes alot of things. I really noticed I had a multi buying habit yesterday when I bought the same pair of platforms from Topshop in black and tan (I needed them). When I got home and took them out of the box I realised that not only was I multi buyer but i'm a multi buyer of Topshop shoes. My love of Topshop shoes is very seasonal ie sometimes I really don't like their collections but when they do a shoe I like, I buy.

The Evidence...

Brogues in pink and gold, Topshop

Platforms in black and Tan, Topshop (yesterday)

Wedges in black and mint green, Topshop

The first multi buy moment- Platforms in cream and navy (not photographed here but I have them), Topshop

Another multi buying moment...

I buy a new pair of navy Toms every summer so i'm building a bit of a collection.

Collecting Croc

When does something become a collection? I'm not too sure if it's when you search for similar items or when you like something and by chance end up with alot of it. Either way it seems I am accumulating mustard crocodile handbags very quickly. These bags aren't that common but I already have four to my name and if I was to see a large tote, a clutch or pretty much anything in between I would probably purchase it if it was the right price.

The 'collection' so far...

The first bag purchased from Huddersfield Vintage Market 

Number 2 was also a Huddersfield VM purchase but unlike the others this is from the crocs belly instead of the hide.

Number 3: A gift from my sister

Number 4: Camden Passage, Angel
