DENIM BOUTIS BOLERO

After  a sunny holiday in Brittany back in London...

The sales have started here too but I came back after 4 hours in oxford circus >>>empty handed !!! I could not find anything that I really really wanted...but back in Islington I found this cool little bolero denim boutis which reminds me  a lot of Isabel Marant collection. Ideally it would have little sleeves but it is still just what I wanted!

Worn with wide denim it looks really 70 s !!!the denim suit will be my hommage to Farrah Fawcett I guess I used to be  a big fan of Charlie s Angels as  a kid ...then I will do a moonwalk for dear Mickael ...hum...no... maybe not!

THE FOXY TROXY

Yesterday we went to see the awsome Jarvis Cocker live at the TROXY which is a super kitsch venue ...they also do lots of cage boxing shows there  ...if some of the usual customers came last night they must have been slightly disapointed with this super skinny contestant dressed in 70 s gear I did not come for the boxing but I wish he had sung the eye of the tiger as in Barcelona this was the perfect place for it..

my American Vintage

 I have received today  from the US a vintage jumpsuit that I found on ebay 2 weeks ago .It fits perfectly and has just the right shape...

 

It has a very deep neckline which is fun as you can completely change the style of your outfit depending on the top you choose under the jumpsuit.I always had in mind this favourite camisole with  a lovely fish print by Paul and Joe it has  a retro feel which suits me ,add some light gold vintage shoes bought in montreuil flea market in the 90 s and my Jacey Withers deer necklace bought in the Whistles shop during the sales last season...

I think it s just as nice as the jumpsuits you can find everywhere at the moment but they usually are in polyester ...which I hate...here it is a lovely comfy cotton jersey...

  I love the shoulders !

Animal prints

I have finally managed to make the hem on my snakeskin dress bought on ebay for 3 pounds! it was pinned for 6 months and was sitting  on  a shelf patiently... it is perfect for the english summer and I have just noticed it matches with the Scorah Pattullo heels also scored on ebay at  a bargain price ,add  a vintage bag and I have the whole outfit for less than 50 pounds !!!!Vintage is credit crunch friendly .I understand it may not be everybody s idea of chic but me ...I feel like  a million dollars in it!

here you can get  a better look at the shoes...

Also browsing on Jane s of seaofshoes.com   which I must say is one of my favourite blog (along with the glamourai) ,I could not believe it ...but she has  the same fake fur leopard coat as mine ,bought 10 yrs ago...funny how one landed in Texas and the other in Montmartre ....and now London...

ma robe, mon panama...

Following my post about  Beatriz Milhazes this dress is like  a painter s palette  it is made of many many colours and stains like shades I m really in love with it ,London being so HOT right now I have found the hat of my dreams ...now I just need to get my hands on some cigarillos....
