My own vintage.

Every now and then I root through the boxes of accessories I have at the back of my wardrobe. I am big on accessories, so I have quite a lot of old bags and scarfs hanging around, but it's always my favourites of the past few month which surface at the top and those beneath just become a distant memory. So, I love that time when I decide to get the boxes out, It's kind of like shopping and my birthday combined, it's free. I rummage through, and always find something that I didn't know I had, once took for granted but now love again. This time I found 2 Primark pieces, even better. They were dirt cheap, but because their time on the shop shelf is long over, nobody knows but me. They are ready for a re-birth. I found a mustard yellow pleather (fake leather)shoulder bag, which was a gift I hated. A perfect size for all my uni books. And a silk, floral print scarf, perfect for hanging around the neck over a boring boyfriend blazer. The moral of the story - don't throw away an accessory you're bored with, store it, and come back to it.
