My Closet: Vintage Cardigan

Another vintage steal from the Clothes Show Live was this cream cardigan.
The same as my levi's it was a complete bargain at only £15 from a vintage stall and I've been living in it ever since! It is hand knitted, and amazingly thick which is just what I want with the brisk winds that we've been having recently. It is a slightly yellow/cream colour which is a bit of a pain to add to my typical monochrome outfits, but I've been making it work with jeans and bold prints or colours underneath. Nothing says Christmas more than a Grandad cardigan!

My Closet: Levi Jeans

I picked up many a fashionable item at the "Clothes Show Live" which was in Birmingham recently but my favourite has to be these Levi's! They were a complete bargain at only £15 from a Vintage stand, and I saw a few people on the day wearing them in a style I aim to replicate soon.

I love the high-waisted look with the cuffs rolled up: I'm certain this makes me look curvier than usual and I'm all for that! The only problem with them is the size; as I'm sure you're all aware the Levi's sizing is forever tricky and if you're ever looking to buy a pair of the shorts or jeans you will most likely be in the shop forever attempting to find a decent fit. I did try this pair on before purchasing but at the Clothes Show you can't really spend time analysing the fit, so I bought them in a haste and as a result this size is a little too big which results in an unsightly pouch forming at the crotch. 

I love them anyway because they are so comfortable and will certainly last for years to come (Levi Jeans are amazing quality), but can't help wishing they were a little snugger!

If you would like a pair of these jeans or wish to delve into the Levi's brand then I know you can get them at all Urban Outfitters stores as well as the Levi's shops. However I would suggest looking around (charity shops, vintage stores, markets etc) as they can be quite overpriced on the high street.
