Stripes + Spikes

Hi all and welcome to my new followers/readers - lovely to have you on board!

Thought I'd get some quick insta snaps of today's outfit. I particularly love these asos spike earrings and am loving that it is cold enough to bust out my fave tony bianco riding boots - four years later they are still going strong. A good pair of leather boots may seem expensive at the time of purchase but they are definitely an investment! I'm also trying to convince the husband that a chanel bag is an investment too. I've been lusting after one after becoming extremely jealous of Jackie on wag nation's bag.

I've decided I need to get myself a chunky cable knit jumper / sweater. Although I love the look of some of the ones at Dotti I can't justify paying upwards of $49.95 for one. Might pay my ol mate asos a visit to see what they have on offer. Asos never disappoints!

Treasures

It's Sunday evening and I'm sitting in front of the heater watching Masterchef. It's been a while since I've linked up with Sophie's weekly flea market finds and thought what better time than after a weekend where I found some lovely treasures.

First find, inspired by the adorable Zara is this cute little milk glass trinket container. I now have four peices of milk glass so I guess I now have a collection? lol

I then picked up this hippy 70s top from a garage sale with a couple of other items. It's one that needs to be belted but looks like it has never been worn and is very unique.

On Friday while on my regular lunchtime trip to Vinnies I spotted this beauty in the fancy dress section. I happily handed over my three dollars and it has now been washed and awaiting its first outing. I think I might wear this to my auntie's seventies themed 40th birthday party in a couple of weeks ... if I can wait that long!

Finally, Black Caviar wasn't the only winner this weekend. I won this gorgeous trophy from a garage sale for three dollars and only realised that once I got it home and gave it a bit of silvo treatment that is in fact quite old! From 1939 to be exact. It is currently housing some of my favourite costume jewellery.

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend
