regression

Another "catch up" outfit, this is what I wore yesterday. Floral shorts from Clothing at Tesco and white long sleeve from New Look
(oh, and *those* shoes again).

Roll on spring and being able to wear these shorts more!

Those that follow me on Twitter or Facebook will know that I suddenly decided I simply MUST own an old school Polly Pocket. After some failed bids on ebay, I struck gold and today this arrived to the dismay of my father who simply exclaimed "oh, I see your regressing".
I don't care, LOVE.

I was then informed we might have some of my old collection up in the loft. SCORE!

I remember Polly Pocket! Those were amazing! I am now going to search my old toys in hopes to find some of mine!

I love your outfit. I love the sheer top look, where you can see the bra underneath it, but it isn't too shear as to wear you are over exposed! It goes lovely with the tights as well!

my word - *those* shoes are incredible.

I've probably said this before and forgotten about them [what sacrilige!] but they deserve being loved all over again.

Looking beautiful m'dear :)

Sara Louise said...

oh my i used to LOVE polly pockets
thanks for the blast to the past !

Lucy said...

:( I never had Polly Pocket - one of those toys I wasn't allowed because the small bits would get hoovered up. Hungry Hippos was too noisy. Mr Frosty wasn't worth the money... I was a disadvantaged child!

D. said...

Aww, Polly Pocket <3

Please may I? said...

Looking fab! Adore the shorts and shoes.

As for polly pocket my eldest loved them, infact at the age of 23 she still has them! She was truly dismayed when they began to be made bigger and refused to allow her younger sister to have the new version!

Jules said...

i Really like your shorts! and I so remember polly pockets!! but I was more of a Barbie girl... I do still remember my space hopper, they're supposed to be coming back into fashion!! (yay)! xx

Great outfit - I've definitely commented on those lovely shorts before, so won't repeat myself!

Score on the Polly Pocket purchase! I distinctly remember donating my entire collection to my Mum's friends little girl quite a few years ago - gutted!
Although.. I wonder if she still has them? She's 17 now, so they're probably not quite as cool as when she was 6 & I gave them to her.. hmm, wonder if I can nab them back!?

I really like those floral shorts and the shoes of course. It is so cool how you bought a polly pocket and re found your love for her. I wonder if my parents still have mine in their house.

Love those cute shorts. I never have much luck with Tesco clothing. As for Polly Pocket, I had one, loved it but there's nothing to do after the initial fun has worn off.
