Excitement Plus

I'm too excited to wait until I post this later in the week so you get two posts in one night to anyone that actually reads this... How lucky are you?? hahaha just kidding... 

So this is my first official OOTD (how exciting!??!!). In my very first post I expressed my love of the new t-shirt I had just purchased in size XL men’s. It is a graphic tee with the original cover over ‘Tales of the Jazz Age’ by F. Scott Fitzgerald printed on the front. This is the first time I had ever worn it and I knew that its size could have been a tad problematic. As a general rule I believe that if the top is loose wear more fitting bottoms and vice versa (not in all cases of course) So I paired it with a pair of high waisted buttoned shorts that are kinda ‘sailoresque’ in my opinion. The brand of these shorts are ‘Princess Highway’ which is a clothing brand full of cute vintage styled clothes that are all super cute. The brand is stocked in a shop called Dangerfield which is one of my fav shops.

The day was pretty low-key: going out for lunch and then having a look around the shops. In the local thrift store I found a few things that I really liked but for a second hand shop full of donated things I kinda thought it was a tad over-priced which was pretty sad because there were some things that I really liked. I couldn’t leave without a faded green, oversized jumper in the men’s section. It’s very super cute and I’ll show it in a OOTD soon… I also found these really pretty jeans but my mum told me not to buy them because I already have about seven pairs of jeans. (Yes, I am a shopaholic and get a bit excited_ but I wiiiiiissssshhh I’d bought them because they were so beautiful and I can’t stop thinking about them. (Yes, I dream about beautiful clothes while normal people dream about people and junk…)


Anyway, the day turned to worse when I went for a walk on the beach with my mum and as I was walking along the sand, out of the WHOLE beach, I managed to step on this really sharp thing under the sand. It was kind of like a shell-like thing with barbs on it and it got stuck a few mm into my foot and mum had to pull it out and it really, really hurt! It’s all bruised now and it’s difficult to walk but I'm getting better. It was a real bummer though because I couldn't do much for the rest of the mini holiday. Anyway here is what I wore: (I didn't have much space so it’s in the bedroom that I slept for the three nights…)
