New Found Treasures Part 4



It's been a while since my last "New Found Treasures" post, but we're slowly getting to the last of them now. For all that aren't too sure what I'm harping on about, I'm showing everything I bought within the time I moved down to London(I wasn't there ages though). So this time, it's the backpack.


I picked this little number up in French Connection in Brighton. Not a shop I go in loads but my friend Nic saw something in the window, as the sale was on. I managed to pick this up for £13.50, which I consider a massive bargain as I know there are similar ones around these days for up too £130(COS for example). I realise it's bursting open in this picture but I was carrying a lot that day.


Anyone else got a backpack thing going on?

New Found Treasures Part 3

The Brogues

Well we're now on part 3 of my new found treasures. This is where I have been showing things I have bought over the past few months and it's about time I blogged about these babies. I picked up these dark brown(with a slight red tint) Loake brogues up when I was staying in Brighton, in January. I couldn't have been more chuffed when I spotted these in a vintage shop, I was even more surprised when the price tag said £38. That's quite a bargain for shoes that could last years right?

I tried them on and strutted up and down for about 10 minutes before handing over the readies, I had to make sure they were perfect. And they were.

I don't really know much about the actual style but the are similar to this seasons R432 style.

I'm wearing them here with Topman Design trousers and bright orange Uniqlo socks. I haven't worn these trousers much since I bought them about 3 years ago but now they have the perfect partner. The fit of the trousers makes me feel very mod, I might wear them to a gig I'm going to on Sunday night.

How's everyone's weekend going?
