My treasure chest

Long time no see. I have been a very busy girl these past few months, working on some final university projects and my dissertation of course. I have also been very busy bidding on some amazing things on eBay. 

I wanted to write a series of posts about the things I always look for and buy in 2nd hand, to showcase some of the prettiest things I have found. Here are two of them.

1. I am constantly drawn to everything and anything that glitters or sparkles, just like any other magpie really. This gold vintage jacket will be perfect for any black outfit for the nighttime, giving it that much needed pinch (punch more like) of glamour. It's sheer and light so it will be perfect for the summer. It is still waiting for its maiden voyage across Bournemouth, but for the time being it hangs on my window gathering the rays of the sun and reflecting them across my room.



2. I love vintage heels and these ones are the most comfortable pair I have ever come across. They have a ridiculous curvy block heel and that much needed platform to save me from sore toes. Needless to say these  heels give my 5'9'' frame that coveted amazon warrior look har har. I got these a few weeks back and have worn them out on several occasions, not once wincing at the state of my feet after a hard days night of boogieing down at the bar. On top of all this awesomeness, they are also made out of blue velvet (more on these two categories later on). 

Accompanied here by a vintage necklace and a pair of sunnies I recently got.
