Vintage Style Jewellery - Clocks, Carousels, Owls and Cuckoos!

On my recent escapades in the lovely city of Brighton I bought myself a few pretty things, it's the summer after all and come the next academic year I won't be able to afford to! I bought two polka dot dresses (which will no doubt feature in my next blog) and these two gorgeous necklaces! The white heart necklace has a cute fully functioning clock too...


The pink rose locket for £3 and pearl heart watch pendant for £5 both from New Look

My lovely buys made me think of the beautiful jewellery available on Little Deer's website I love the vintage style and quirkiness of every piece! There are some truly lovely vintage dresses on their site for sale too, which I recommend you check out!

Fuel for my polka dots obsession...

I had the day off from uni today so I decided to pop into Leeds city centre for a little perusal of the shops. I ended up buying a cupcake cookie jar, some polka dot soup bowls, and this lovely rain mac from New Look. I have never actually owned a rain mac before, I have never managed to find one that doesn't make me look like I am wearing a two-man tent. So imagine my delight when I find this little gem in New Look! I love the big slouchy pockets, the option for shorter sleeves, the toggles at the waist make it much more flattering... and of course... it is polka dot!
All I need now is a little bit of rain!
