Grandma Sweater

29 November 2009










Yes, I am totally aware that this sweater frighteningly resembles that of
a grandma, but hey what can I say... I dig the grandma chic. Hehe I got
this vintage sweater at Brick Lane market. Or in other words I
got it at Bonnie's heaven. It's been raining non-stop here in London,
and it gets dark at about 4:15, so it has become quite difficult to take
outfit photos. I'm trying my best though!

Oh yes, and who's bored only blogging through only
photos and words? Look forward to... a video post soon! :)

Also... check out my SHOP!

wearing: vintage bag & sweater; f21 tank and skirt.

Adorable! I have such a weakness for grandma sweaters. Love your skirt as well!

P. said...

But what are you talking about... it's very beautiful this sweater! ^^
If my grandmother had that kind of clothes... I'd be happy to steal from her =)
You're right for the pictures, it becomes terrible. In Paris we have the same bad weather, and night falls at 5pm... My pictures are all dark and yellow due to artificial light... Is not that great... -__-
