A typical charity shop chic look! Ripped old Top-shop jeans, I actually had to slash these to create the shorts/hotpants customised with Amnesty International patches sewn onto the back pockets because there was no more life left in them as they were, 2nd hand patent leather Doc Martins-free, tattoo design vest top-£2, Laura Ashley maroon cotton cardi (part of a twinset)-£5, angora warm stone colour bobble beret-£2 proving that style doesn't have to cost vast amounts. I am a big beleiver in the salvage-able and bargain bin!
This is a very casual outfit, as would suggest from a day at the beach! The shorts pockets combo'd with DM's give it the extra edge in my opinion, whilst the cardi and bobble hat bring it back into a softer vintage ensemble.
below are some of my paintings and drawings, I am in the beginning stages of planning some sort of clothes/textiles transfer of the designs whether this be silk screening or another method onto old white shirts.

also lace and perhaps felt, or whatever takes my fancy at that point!
