OUTFIT 3: Shirt - Charity Shop, Beanie - River Island, Shorts & Platform Trainers - As Before
Bit of a different post today. It sounds daft, but I sometimes get sick of constantly seeing my face on here! There's only so many times I can look at that grumpy expression I've got. Ha. I popped to the charity shops this morning so I thought it was the perfect time to show you my purchases, the pink shorts & crazy 90s platform trainers. I bet some of you are thinking I've lost it.. my mum definitely will! I know, they're pretty ugly but I couldn't resist. If I pretty them up with some cute frilly socks I think they'll look alright. Us shorties all need a bit of height, even if it is in the form of ugly old trainers.
The shorts were a bit of an impulse buy. I really do not need to be buying any more pairs, but I was sucked in thinking I can have a DIY sesh with them. They're probably going to get bleached a bit & have some pastel colour added.. maybe lilac? If they turn out okay I'll probably sell them so keep an eye out for how I get on!
What do you think to the outfit layout sort of thing? I love posting them on Instagram & having a nosey at other people's.. sometimes it's nice to see an outfit without thinking 'yeahhh that wouldn't look like that on me'. Ha.

what a wonderful top :)
ReplyDeleteI don't imagine you being short at all for some reason! The trainers are pretty dang cool for a charity top buy and so are thsoe shorts! Will be cool to see hwta you do with them :)!
ReplyDeleteI think the outfit layouts are great - I like seeing them as it's often easier to see everything that's in the outfit!

I know what you mean by needing extra height, all of my shoes now have some sort of flatform/heel to them :P
ReplyDeleteAh those shorts! Would love to find a similar pair, they're perfect! xx
That first outfit is just perfection for summer!

AS IF you got those trainers from a charity shop!! They're amazing. All 90s stuff has been rinsed out of the shops round here and it's all naff 2000s Primark.
ReplyDeleteWost thing is I actually HAD a pair of those in about 1998. No idea where they are now.. I can only imagine my mum gave them to a charity shop!
