How cute is this little Fiat? Sadly it isn't mine but isn't it great. It's been parked in our road a lot lately so I thought I'd go for a picture.

My attempts at documenting my outfits more frequently aren't going too well so far! This is what I wore yesterday,hopefully the end of jumper season. I got this wool jumper with the rest of the great haul at the jumble sale a few weeks back. I mainly bought it for the label. Since jumbles are so frantic the label is often my only chance to see if something is vintage. The skirt is a very useful 1990s Gap number, good for all seasons. The clogs are maybe a bit 'off trend' now but I don't really care, they are very comfy and I still enjoy them. 

In other news, something you won't know about me is that I really like Zach Braff. I like Scrubs but it is mainly down to his film Garden State (which I adore). So when I heard he was bringing his new play 'All new people' to London I knew I would be going. We went last night and I really enjoyed it, the whole cast were great and it was funny. After the show I waited outside with a lot of other people and he came out for a bit to sign autographs. You can imagine how happy I was to be able to meet him and get his autograph and one (very blurry) photo! He was nice and spent a lot of time thanking everyone for coming and posing for photos.

 So now that is one geeky fact about me that the world now knows! Is there any famous person you like and have been able to meet?

Dress - Altered, jumble sale

Shrug: Jumble sale

Tights: Primark

Bag - Jumble sale

Clogs - Clarks

These photos are from a week ago, before the clocks went back on a beautiful autumn day. The dress was originally mid calf length and XL, but I took it in at the back seam and chopped off the hem. I actually cut off too much, which is how I ended up with this dark green band as the hem instead. Although I think it's probably more interesting this way. I've been wearing this shrug a lot too lately, although I prefer it as a scarf. Apologies for the absence of posts lately. I've started a new job and will have to get used to balancing my time. I'm working on a shop update for the weekend, with some pretty autumn finds.

Lace dress

Just a little post to show off two recent purchases, this lace dress and these clogs. I'm still uming and ahing about the clogs. They are super comfy but I don't like to buy anything that I don't think I'll want to wear the same time next year, I like things to have a bit of longevity. So we'll see. I've been after a lace 60's style mini dress for months, and having trawled etsy for the perfect one, I ended up finding this in Warehouse sale. Sorry about the tights, I think this vintage Swiss dot pair are just too small, as I ended up laddering them trying to hoist them up, oops. The hat is vintage too, I felt slightly like I was going to a 1960s tea party in this outfit.
