Whilst nothing in this outfit is actually vintage, it does have a rather retro feel to it. In fact the jeans are so old (I’ve had them for over 12 years), you could say that they are as vintage as I am…!

Following my bargain purchases of this cute Peter Pan fur collar and bird-print blouse (both ASOS), I was purposely aiming for a retro feel with this outfit. I’ve been inspired a lot lately by fabulous bloggers who are either full-on or slightly vintage… you should check out Yours Truly x, Mary Van Notes and Kitsune-Kun if you want the best with retro vibes. (If you know of any others do please leave me a comment with their blog url, I love vintage style!)

And I really liked this look – cute and comfortable. Can’t believe I can get into jeans I had when I was in my twenties… they are stretchy!

My cold is mostly gone now (I can breathe *at last*) – I’m feeling back in the game and my mojo is almost back. Roll on Friday 😉
