Bagpuss and friends

Hello babes! I've been trying to look at my fashion in a different way. Instead of thinking of everything in a fast-fashion-everything-new-is-wonderful way I'm reminding myself how many old faves I have and how glorious it is to wear things I want to wear, rather than feeling the pressure to be Mrs Bloggy McBloggerface at all times. I always feel bad if I show off old stuff on this blog, which is ridiculous because none of us are Kardashian rich (as far as I know!) Let's dispense with this obsession for new shit, yeah? Of course new things are nice an' all, but so is being able to afford your rent. 😀 So yes, I need to get rid of this blogger mentality I carry around with me and stop apologising for 'everything old' posts. So with a proud flourish and some jazz hands I say - everything in this post is old, especially the bag, which I've had since the late 90s/early 2000s.

If this bag could talk I'd be in a world of trouble. It's been to numerous gigs and festivals with me and I've even thrown up on it, for shame! (Don't worry, it's been washed since then!) It's just the right size to put my phone, purse, lippie and mirror in. It's such an ice breaker wherever I go.

Crop top life 4ever!

These photos were taken at glorious Batemans, which was Rudyard Kipling's home. It's a little spot of heaven in the East Sussex countryside and I'll be sharing some more photos of the scenery another day.

I'm wearing:
Pentagram t shirt, old Very.co.uk
Skirt, old newlook.com Curves
Bagpuss bag, occasionally found for sale on ebay

I'd been doing so well at the not-buying thing but it's all gone to pot as I'm going on holiday soon and I got holiday panic buying fever. Does anyone else do that or is it just me?! I have LOADS of plans to customise clothes I've already got. Keep 'em peeled, and thanks for reading.
