The Sample Sale-
So Danie and I made our way up to Great Portland Street at 10am yesterday morning, which by the way wasn't early enough and we ended up queuing for an hour and a half. But finally we got in, and among the other jumble of 16-18 year old girls, we started to fling through what looked like my room, a floordrobe. Due to the lack of changing rooms, it was a complete madness, but we searched and eventually found a few items we wanted. I did mean to take pictures when I was there but it was too busy and small, and taking pictures of semi naked girls wasn't really what I set out to do. So alas, no pictures of the actual sale, but take my word for it, if you've been to a Kilo Sale before, that's what it looked like.

Anyway, another faux-pas I made was wearing this above outfit... When there aren't any fitting rooms, and only one mirror, wearing an oversized tee with tights was extremely inconvenient. If I had any sense, I would have worn jeans/leggins with a vest, easy changing, no nudity. Alas, no. But anyway, re-discovering this tee was the best moment of my winter, I am aware it's technically summer, but I was cold. And ye, it is lined with fleece, so basically it is perfect. Trainers, standard. Plaits, obviously and hoops, well I didn't want to let Vicky Pollard down. My dog, Archie, decided to get in loads of these pictures... so I decided to dress him up, but he slyly loved it anyway.

The Jacket-
SO
As well as the Motel Rocks Sample Sale, they had a 'Pop-Up' Vintage Shop going on too. This is where I found this jacket, and it was dirt cheap. They had some gorgeous playsuits in reds and purples, but I'm not really the playsuit type so just stuck with the jacket. Denim Jackets are one of those things that never seem to go out of fashion, whether they're tight and small or over-sized like this one. So I basically decided 'why not' and got it. As a girl notorious for 'borrowing' people's clothes, I can't mind when people borrow mine back, however after showing this "unisex" jacket to my Dad, he's decided he likes it and will borrow it... so he will continue to rock the double denim combinations that he is so fond of, good.

But hey! Good news, the sale does actually continue today so if you didn't get a chance to go today and decide that revision just isn't worth the hassle, pop down it's open till 7pm.
