My New Blouse

I already had a post scheduled for this evening but I've just got back from another jumble sale and had to share my beautiful find with you. 
I've been after an Edwardian-style blouse to match my vintage-style lace-up boots for a while so imagine my pleasure when I spotted this pristine white beauty for a bargainacious 20p.

 It's so rare to find immaculate white cotton second-hand so it stood out a mile from the rest of the jumble. Well worth braving the blizzard!

Leather "Edwardian-lady"boots £4.99 (Charity Shop)

  1. great shirt, i love it!!

    Can i ask what jeans you are wearing please? ive been after black jeans for ages and can't find the perfect pair.

    You look slightly rocker/biker in this outfit, its stunning..esp with the slightly oversized blouse and skinny black jeans.

  3. Simple but gorgeous. I am still looking for a jumble sale in my area but I bet I don't find anything that exciting.

  4. Wow!! Love it and can't believe you found it for 20p! I think I might hire you as my bargain hunter, you'd make a fortune. :)

    Watch out for a post about the AMAZING wavers. I've spent all night looking and playing with them.

  9. Thanks for commenting, each and every one of you!
    G - The jeans are denim leggings. I got them from a market stall selling factory seconds, they are made by BAY and are current stock.
