the throwback pieces

31.5.14


 There is definitely some 90s vibin' here. And while yes, "it's back" I didn't realise that I was feelin' it that much until I realised I had a few new purchases that made me harken back to some old memories.

First up is definitely the clubmasters. No they're not the real Ray-bans ones, I can't decide if they actually suit me to really splash the cash there boy do these remind me of my childhood.  I was that kid with the big wired glasses. Heck I even have memories of being teased about how big my glasses were so I'm really surprised I even picked these up. But y'know that old time feelin'. After seeing Suzie's outfit post in my Asos basket it went! Some other classics are the Casio watch (similar here) and platform, sorry flatform sneakers. Gawd I'm getting into white shoes at the moment, pray these don't get too dirty (yeah right).
But the piece that really inspired this post was the Irish Luck Ring I found when randomly browsing Asos. I remember really lusting after it when I was a kid after seeing all the cool highschoolers wear them (well any highschoolers really!). And after I lost my gold ring I had worn since I was 13, a gift from my auntie, my naked hands have never felt the same. I don't know what it is about this ring but it makes me feel happy to have it in my life. So happy that I think I might buy a nice one made of something a bit nicer and have a standard jewellery piece back in my life again. I think what makes me happy about it is that it's something I can get myself as opposed to when I was a child I had no such ability other than to ask for it (which I never did). And that is how it should be eh? 
I'm definitely starting to feel the vintage lust grow within me again after more high street haulin' of late. woo..
