Having a 90s rave revival 🤣 as I merrily weaving my way through my own back catalogue of style. This is definitely the funnest part of perimenopause for 2 stand out reasons!
① Less shits given. I’ll wear what I like and have fun doing it.
② Celebrating all that I have been. Integrating different aspects of my SELF and my past, as I prepare for a new chapter of life. Channeling Caitlin Moran’s #happyhag
Celebrating one of those perfect impromptu shopping sessions which resulted in 4 fabulous skirts for under £100!
I was in Covent Garden with my 11-year old for our monthly #MotherDaughterDate, and got ridiculously excited when we spotted this huge vintage store with everything sold by weight.
It reminded me of epic thrift shopping sessions in San Francisco in my 20s. This is the first time I’ve seen vintage clothing sold by weight in the UK. I had 10 minutes to browse (on daughter time!) and picked out these fab statement skirts.
Ah I remember the days when I could shop at leisure, alone. I used to do this thing called ‘browsing’. It was lovely.
Now shopping for myself has more of a ‘smash n’ grab’ opportunistic vibe that I’m sure any parent can relate to. Okay, I’ve got 45 minutes before the next ‘thing’. Quick! Lets dive into that shop!
