Philip Lim is the master of chic, cute shift dresses. He uses simple designs and clever shapes to bring classic items to a younger generation. A younger generation who has the hundreds of pounds it costs to buy one of his lovely dresses....
This is actually Primark, retailing at £10 originally, but I bought it for £4 in Relate in Morden. The grey shift is similar to Philip Lim's design, but the paint-style detailing echos Miu Miu and the Prada fairy-paintings from a few seasons ago. It has less structure than the Lim design, giving it a more off-duty feel.
I love this girls outfit so much i'm going to nick it. Her ray-bans, white plimsoles, candy stripe dress and denim bomber give her a rockabilly style which she pulls off with such conviction it's clear she didn't just head to Oxford Street and copy the mannequins.
I picked up this for just £1 in East Ham. Denim Jackets are a pound a penny, but try a few on before buying, avoid stretch-denim and anything too tight. and only wear bleached denim if you like Bros.
why spend a fortune on fashion? style isnt something you can buy. reflect your creativity in your outfit using second-hand, thrift and home-made items. copy runway looks at a fraction of the price. take pride in the knowledge you're a THRIFT STORE QUEEN not a FASHION VICTIM. this blog shows you outfits the youth of London create using strictly high-street, thrift and hand-made items, where the best charity shops are, and MARVEL at how cheap they cost compared to designer!
