First of all, you are 100% correct. Secondly, classic pieces? What are those anyway? What is the obsession with the white tailored button down shirt anyway? I am not a fan of white shirts(because I can't eat red sauce and not deposit it on said white shirt), I rather wear my sushi shirt every day because it makes me so happy. Finally, your boot collection is to die for, as are your coats. I suspect I'll come back to this post to visit them time and time again.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834088646321136916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-72070244389283040992013-10-03T01:24:49.319+01:002013-10-03T01:24:49.319+01:00Blogger meet up? :Sniff: I agree 100% about wearin...Blogger meet up? :Sniff: I agree 100% about wearing what you love. I have vintage pieces I purchased close to four decades ago still going strong, then I have high-end designer pieces I will never part with, along with things bought in cheap chains that never seem to die. Sod whats "in" I wear it all, sometimes mixed all together! Like I said when we met up, I have so much I won't buy just anything anymore. As you said it really has to make me weak in the knees to come home with me! May the world catch on to wearing what you love and ignoring those stupid lists!

You are ...How I WISH I was coming to that meet up!! You are so right though Vix - most of my wardrobe is op shopped, from clothes swaps or made by me. I occasionally splash out on a new frock, but its usually something made by an indie label, rather than anything "Up to the minute". When I was younger I did follow fashion, but now I wear stuff because I think its rad, not because I'm MEANT to. I mean apparently I'm not MEANT to dye my hair black, but I've been doing that for 5 years and everyone always tells me what great hair I have - so to hell with fashion and putting people in "boxes" of whats "in right now" Treeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319274204951528344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-85171794397225682802013-09-25T09:05:02.643+01:002013-09-25T09:05:02.643+01:00Well said Vix!!!

One thing I'll probably never have is a gap in my wardrobe! I'm sentimental about clothes so find it really hard to throw things out. I'm with you on finding a good old fashioned cobbler, Cumbernauld finally has one and I'm just hoping he gets enough business to keep going because he's so much cheaper and does a much better job than Timpsons. This blogger meet up sounds like it's going to be a good one, but then they all sound good, hope you all have a magnificent time and I'll enjoy reading all about it. xxCityScape Skybabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10664705819999740018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-57524045243289108952013-09-25T00:38:35.803+01:002013-09-25T00:38:35.803+01:00Your boot and coat collection made me go a bit wea...Your boot and coat collection made me go a bit weak. <br /><br />You are gorgeous in that floaty violet gown!
