Oh I do love to be beside the Seaside!

I do love Brighton Beach, but sometimes it's nice to head along the coast to the less touristy parts of our beautiful Sussex Coast. 

Having worked in Worthing for 5 years up until a recent change in career, I forgot how much I love the more rustic and old-school seaside town it is. Lancing is just round the corner, and on a recent charity shop hunting trip, the Mister and I decided to finish the day with a stroll along the promenade, and a spot of posing with the fishing boats...as you do!

On a windy day like this, headscarves are called for!


You will very rarely spot me in jeans, these are the only pair I own, but am looking to invest in some new ones. If anyone has managed to find some perfect jeans, please do tell! I have spent years on the look out to no avail.


I've also been messing about and experimenting with hair-do's a little more after having picked up a few tips from the Vintage Hair Lounge. Would highly recommend you pay them a visit if you ever get the chance, they are a lovely duo and have so much knowledge to share, very inspirational! I shall be posting up a picture tutorial very shortly as requested :) thank you for all your lovely comments!


On a hint from a charity shop manager in Shoreham, we made our way to Green House in Lancing, the most humongous charity shop I have ever had the luck of coming across. Jaw dropping stuff, the place was an actual warehouse and was stuffed to bursting point with furniture, bric a brac, clothes and an amazing haberdashery section to boot. Not only that, but they were selling some 70's G-plan-esque furniture from £20!!!! If we only had room in our little den... 

Go bag yourself a bargain!


Much Love from Lancing,

Saturday Outfit Post

Today was a day of walking the Beagles, and trawling around the auto-jumble at the Ardingly Vintage & Classic Car Show, so reasonable sensible shoes and comfy clothing was in order.

As it was quite windy out today, I opted for a head scarf. You'll catch me wearing them quite a lot since the challenge! 

These photo's were taken after a day of walking around, blown about and rained on, and somehow, very stupidly, I managed to lose my favourite belt today :( how can one lose a belt without realising?! So alas, I now no longer own a rather nice red and white striped belt with a big fat anchor on the front....I'm praying I'll find a replacement in a charity shop someday soon, as it was only from New Look last summer. Finger's crossed! 




In 2 weeks time I shall be leaving this flat, and moving into a new one in Kemp Town. Slightly nervous as I do love this place, and it's fab being right in the centre, but the new abode will include a little garden/patio, which I am very excited about, and also a gorgeous art nouveau fireplace, so yay! But I do dislike the actual moving process, and my arms now being a complete mess (hence why the now permanent addition of some very fetching arm braces!) equals the poor Mister having to do all the work while I sit in a chair sipping on my bubbly......hmmm now that doesn't sound too bad after all! heh.

Much Love from Brighton,

This is how I feel like now! Poor old Beagles!
