OOTD: S/S 2012 PASTELS - THRIFTED







Shirt - thrifted
Shorts - vintage
Boots - Factory Shop/DIY
Braclets - Primark

Indulging myself in the pretty-pretty pastel pages of Vogue's 'The Collections' during my lunchtime and then stumbling across this oversized shirt in a local charity shop seemed like a fate and coincidence too good to be true. But yes, I did manage to get my hands on a £2.75 satin-like pastel-ised teal button up shirt and then pair it with my favourite vintage Levi's. 

My initial rush of excitement then led on to a manic creative spark, as ideas of collar and cuff embellishments and button swapping bounced about my head. Though a little thin, I'll still be wearing this with my leather or fur jacket throughout the next few months. 

Look out for some customisation on this thing in the next few weeks. 

MUCH LOVE

FAYE XOXO
