edited cos i wasn't making much sense last night. has anyone ordered custom t-shirts from cafepress.co.uk? i assumed it was uk based but reading around i think they're printed and sent from the states? which means chances are i'll get caught for vat and shit

I went browsing in Frasers today for biker boots and found a pair of Blowfish Malibu boots reduced from £65 to £12.50 only prob is they are a size 7 and I'm a 5. I bought them anyway as a birthday gift for my friend who is a size 6 with wide feet...I thought it was worth trying & that she can sell them on ebay if they don't fit.

For me I bought a cream cardi from Vero Moda with lil printed stars on it, a long stripey skirt from Warehouse and a grey marl stripey top from Dickens & Jones.

I really love this Thracian armband (2nd-1st century BCE), and am thinking of asking an old friend, who is a master metalsmith, to make me a copy.

He's such a darling, he says 'Yes, it'd be a pleasure ((~:

very nice fed

i appear to be having a minor nervous breakdown on the clothing purchases front. this last week i've bought a 1940s pyjamas pattern, a set of lace collar and cuffs and a pair of vintage italian snakeskin sandals. i will definitely be wearing them all together

my cafepress t-shirt turned up today, unfortunately someone's dog bit a chunk out of it do i try to swing a full refund and get them to let me keep the t-shirt cos of pointless transatlantic reshipping? (i can patch the holes)

or is it just a bit shit?

 

[Red Cat]

At a yummy price of £15

That's gorgeous!

 

[invisibleplanet]

That's gorgeous!

It looks gorgeous on too. Truly classic styling. There are some 10s and 14s left. I'm 12 top, 10 bottom, bought the 10, and it looks great on me, and I'm no narcissist.

A black denim shirt dress with metal buttons. Needs washing a few times to make it softer. I'll probably cover the pocket flaps, collar and belt in some lovely dark grey skull material I bought recently.

 

[Ms T]

A seventies silver lurex dress which is pure Studio 54!

A seventies silver lurex dress which is pure Studio 54!

That sounds quite nice. I love vintage.

 

[muvva]

Stretchy stuff- maternity clothes are too big and my usual jeans etc are getting rather tight!

 

[such and such]

I just ordered this And some tights on sale in berry or whatever they call it.

 

[wayward bob]

worth saying again that is an ace dress

shopping therapy to the rescue here again. top is silk/mohair 80's-does-40's from etsy, skirt is wool-mix, topshop, ebay, it's greener than it looks here and has cute pleats/splits at the back. it also needs an iron

 

[Ms T]

Lovely, bob. Tres chic.

 

[Cloo]

Petit Bateau denim dress for my daughter, size 3:

We run out of hand-me-downs for her when she turns 3 - I'll probably stock up on lots of cheap supermarket stuff nearer the time, but in the meantime, if I see nice stuff going cheap I'm starting to stock up.

 

[Yu_Gi_Oh]

and a fitted black shirt dress also from H&M.

 

[Ms T]

A vaguely twenties influenced nude coloured dress with birds on it from Primark, a couple of sports bras and some gingham PJs, also Primark. And two pairs of shoes from TK Maxx.

 

[killer b]

a real nice smart black jacket from the YMCA shop for 50p!
