Something a little different.
After becoming infatuated with a video app on my iPhone I decided to do an outfit post with a twist. I filmed my outfit and trip around the car boot and obviously added some whimsical Yann Tiersen melody to set the mood.
With deadlines looming I always need to have something planned to get me out the house so that the cabin fever doesn't set in. I planned to meet my friend for breakfast on Saturday and we made an impromptu trip to the car boot - picked up a lot of bargains, haggled my arse off and had a lot of fun and banter in the process. There were so many amazing vintage pieces of furniture - it almost makes me sad that I couldn't give any of them a home and a new story... The Tracey Island would look wonderful anywhere in my future house. There are some serious car booters out there who turn up equipped with suitcases to trail home their bargain swag of the day! Madness. There were a lot of 4 for a £1 clothing tables which obviously I dived into head first and came out with a cardigan, dress, blazer and scarf! I also picked up the most beautiful, shiny clutch and brooch :)
Being up early has made me realise that I can do get up early and not be a complete zombie so I may attempt the early rise a little more often to get through my ever growing to-do list for Uni! Although lets face it I may not, I may just stick to waking up late and working late - the healthy work mode.
Hope you like the video - I have a taste for it now so you maybe subjected to many more...
