Swedish Hasbeen

(Swedish style jumper:Topshop, 1960's skirt: Vintage, Brown Suede boots: Office)

This skirt was bought for me by my sister, I think she got it from Etsy and isn't it lovely? In my personal and entirely biased little-sister-idolisation I think my sister has the best taste. I love the pleats in the skirt and it fits perfectly which is always the challenge with vintage. 

This sweater is from Topshop and is a pretty good festive jumper. It has a cutesy crochet collar and a fair isle print, but guess what? The pattern doesn't go onto the back! I hate you. Why not?? 

In other news when me and my sister were taking these photos in the beautiful Scottish countryside we noted a lovely apparent dumpsite at the bottom of the hill. It was like an outside Craigslist. Stock included 3 heaters, 3 VCRS, a tv, numerous lights and rather worryingly wheelchair wheels. A lesson to all, don't litter. We would have taken it to the dump, but we didn't have room in the car, my former-bin-man boyfriend would be ashamed of me. Also, note the Irn bru just to remind you that we are in Scotland.


With love from,

  12. oh my god!!! i share your pain. thats got to be one of my mega pet hates with clothes... topshop and a few other high street store are notorious for it. patterns/embellishments/embroidery on the front but a plain back?? apparently just because we dont have eyes in the back of our head to look down at our backs all the time it means that nobody else can see it.

    if i dont see it it doesnt exist right?


    just hate it haha. its still such a beautiful jumper though. you really look lovely and have gorgeousss hair too.

  16. Just saw this post and had to comment on the pile of garbage because that totally happened while I was out in the Irish countryside- it was like all this beautiful landscape and a randomly placed empty wooden cabinet of some sort- a real eyesore, which of course, I, too, just had to photograph. ;)
