Around a week ago, the glorious weather in London was a far cry from the damp, dark grey clouds and rain that has now decided to torment our summer months. I was on my way out, and thought I would set myself the challenge of wearing something I haven't worn in a while.
I actually surprised myself and manged to create an outfit with a top I bought from Great Universal when I was 18! According to my calculations, that makes almost six years since this one shoulder jersey top has been hibernating in my wardrobe.

Creating new outfits from old clothes helps to save money and also exercises your creativity. This might have been the reason why I decided to wear these shoes instead of flip flops (which would have been the obvious choice for me)

ReplyDeleteMadgerin! love it< I'm well jel of you and Sankofa, what can I blog about?
ReplyDeleteHi Friday's Afro. Thank you for following and for commenting! You usually have loads to say so don't get mad, get blogging! By the way, you're a little trend setter yourself. Do you fancy featuring on j'adoreplusmore?
ReplyDeleteThis blog is so inspiring. I tell you why, lately due to lack of funds I am forced to look deep into my wardrope and boy have I come across some old clothes bought over ten years ago (luckily my wait has not changed much) but as fashion goes, they have come back in fashion and the good thing also is now people are allowed to be creative, unique and be individuals. Never in my life have I enjoyed my old clothes so much and I am finding something new everyday and rediscovering myself each time. I am mixing and matching western with African print cloths and I am loving it. I wish I am technical enough to show you a few pictures but hopefully soon I'll get there. Keep inspiring Madeline x Patience P
ReplyDeleteExactly Auntie P! In these days of tightening our belts, we will all need to get creative! Digging deep is the way, and mixing African with Western clothing is so much fun!
