I haven't blogged in a while for many reasons. I'm not sure what I want to do with my blog. I love clothes and style but I have fashion block! I don't mean writing block I mean personally I have no clue what I'm doing with myself and my style. If I'm not happy with my style why blog about it!? I used to dress for me and it was eclectic. I like that I stood out. I dressed ONLY for me. My friends would be in jeans and I would bowl in with a fifties dress and feel totally comfortable. What's changed? Well I think one thing is I have moved home to Edinburgh. I haven't lived here since I was a confused skateboard Betty of 18! Where I would grace the club's and bars with shaved lilac hair baggy jeans and a skimpy tight girly top! Tomboy bottom, tits top! When I moved to London I carried on with the tomboy tits top look but it gradually altered, I started wearing dresses and skirts! Then I met Ruby she was a 50s Vintage Siren. I adored her style and the sex appeal she oozed. She was confident and funny and we became friends. She tought me about vintage. I always stayed in at home and watched all the black and white movies as a kid. I always felt a connection and now I was emerging myself into the whole scene with Ruby. I was a 50s girl 24/7. I finally found the style to suit my curves and learned that fashion was about what works with you and not what's parading down the catwalks and pictured in magazines. There is always going to be a style that will suit you every season it's how you work it in your own way that makes it fashion. That being said the all day every day 50s took its toll. I'm a rock chick too. I love punk, mod, ska, nothern soul I felt I was devoting my self to one decade. So I decided to change up my wardrobe again. I'll always be a vintage girl but I don't want to pigeon hole myself to one era. I need more choice for my ever changing waking mood. Now all that's decided I need to stamp out my own style again. So I'm looking for bright colours and bold patterns and quirky accessories. I'm also on Bloglovin a little late I know, but I need to feel inspired. I'm also toying with Pintrest too. I see so many little things that inspire on a day that it's difficult for my little pea brain to remember. Is this the best way? I'm I missing anything new? Other thoughts are a YouTube channel. I buy a lot of charity shop bits in a week that a think a little round up once a week and a styling of outfits might be fun?
And if the summer could hurry the F up, then it would be a touch easier. I can't get motivated in this gloomy weather!
