Hope you’re all having a happy day ☀️ . I’m starting on a new ‘almost gone’ print today so I really have nothing new to show you (the joys of being an artist on social media am I right?) . Buuuuut here’s a photo of my face from the last time I could be bothered to wear eyeliner... it was so long ago I don’t actually remember 🤷🏼‍♀️ . If you have any favourite endangered animals you’d like to see in my print series just leave me a comment or send me a quick message because I’m trying to work my way through as many as possible! . I’m also still open for commissions this month so message me if you’d like one! . . . . . #art #inked #tattoo #tattoodesign #sustainable #sustainablefashion #charityshop #charityshopfashion #thriftstore #thrifted #thriftedfashion #charityshopfinds #thriftstorefinds #artistaesthetic #jodiebrackenartwork #grunge #punk #fashion #grungeaesthetic #aesthetic #ink #sketchbook #drawing #artwork #style #ootd #veganfashion #vegan #outfit #artist (at Penrith- Lake District) https://www.instagram.com/p/COzhXJVJVJq/?igshid=18mr0xo6nhjpw

Today’s ootd is this rather fabulous fake fur coat I found in a charity shop in Harborne yesterday! It kept me all warm and snuggly whilst the wind was raging outside today! Today’s toilet selfie comes from the loos in Cosy Coffee one of my favourite local coffee shops as they do the best Flat whites! #sundaybest #sundayoutfit #psootd #toiletselfie #ootd #fatshion #thrifting #thriftstorefinds #charityshopfinds #charityshopfashion https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu1jQeugfKO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9xj9jedr372x

Me and Mother Harris had a sleepover and we played Super Mario Bros on the good ol’ Nintendo Wii - what an absolute relic.... and yes, I am wearing the same outfit I wore yesterday but we’re on lockdown! Q: what is/was your favourite game to play on the wii? 🌱🌱🌱 #sustainablefashion #charityshopfinds #thriftstorefinds #thriftedfashion #charityshopfashion #fashion #style #instastyle #outfitinspo #followforfollow #nintendo #sleepover #90sfashion #90saesthetic #90svibes #retro #vintage #cute #kawaii #softgrunge #tumblraesthetic #alternativefashion #lookbook #ootd #indiegirl #retropiece #photography #model #whatiwore #pictureoftheday (at Reading, England) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-WWY36g6Af/?igshid=y61lp71o4qny

I love a good second hand find! Bought this Next jacket today from a charity shop for £9! . It fits perfectly, is really warm and has Pockets! (not big pockets but pockets none the less) This will see me through the festive party season too (not that I have many to go to 😂) along with my second hand dresses. . I was looking for a black one last week but this will do the job perfectly 😊 (Its faux fur before anyone starts having ago 🙄) . #whybuynew #secondhand #charityshopfind #charityshopbargain #charityshopfashion #faux #fauxfur #next #secondhandpurchase #jacket #winterjacket #fluffy #bargain #veganjacket #veganclothing #vegangirl #veganfur #luckyfind https://www.instagram.com/p/B5vZSjbAkUA/?igshid=1f03w484h1bfx

I haven’t even begun to use these six principles and I would have told you I was doing all I could. I was doing what I knew and now I know better.

Whoever has taken The_fashionstalker could you please return her ASAP..... . SLOW FASHION SEASON . I hereby pledge to buy no `new’ clothing between the 21st of June and the 21st of September 2019. Buying only second-hand. Yes! I’ve signed up for #slowfashionseason with @slowfashion and @collaction_org along with a whopping 14,000+. The aim: 3 months 10,000 people No new clothes. When the gorgeous Kirsty @girlwithbellsandwhistles messaged and asked if I would take part, I was thinking there’s no way I could ever do that! I went on to explain why I couldn’t do this and at the same time thinking these are excuses not reasons! Yes I have holidays coming up, yes I have special occasions to attend. That alongside the fact that wearing my summer wardrobe would deem difficult as last year’s clothes have all shrunk. 😂 Kirsty’s reply: have a go and failing is much better than not trying at all! And went on giving me tips and she inspired me to do this. So challenge accepted. One question I forgot to ask though. Are handbags allowed? Asking for a friend. . . .

Charity shop shorts are always a win for showing off your tan (real or fake 🙈)

Dressing Up!

My friends always ask me how I find such fab stuff in them and my only advice would to be persistent! It can take a while to go through it all properly but thats what you gotta do if you wanna find the goodies! I've noticed myself that when I start looking around in a charity shop, I can go through a rail and totally miss things at first but once I get into it I can go back to the same rail and it all jumps out at me - and this is exactly what happened to me the other day! I found four absolutely gorgeous dresses within 5 minutes, just after I'd said to my Mam 'I don't think theres anything in here today' (famous last words!).

Eeeee, I am so in love with this dress! It still had its tag on it - it's from Rokit, a little vintage shop I've seen in Camden, London. The tag said it was reduced from £30, to £20, to £10.. I got it for £1!!!! The pink suede is a gorgeous colour, it fits and feels lovely on and the style looks so vintage.  I can't believe I saved like £29 on it.. one of the best bargains I've found charity shopping for sure! 

The dress on the left of this photo is a River Island dress with a kinda mirrored pattern print. It's very pretty but to be honest I haven't worn that kind of style dress in a long time (it used to be my go to style!). My Mam insisted I get this one though as she loves that style of dress on me and we both agreed the print was quite unusual. Plus, it was only £1 and the few things I've bought from River Island in the past have been good quality and lasted. The dress on the right, I absolutely love! The photo doesn't do it justice but its a shimmery silver fabric, with big flared sleeves and a deep v-cut neck - it's super 70's! 70's meets funky fairy disco alien, haha. I've just cut my hair into a silvery blue bob and got a pair of platform Jeffery Campbell boots for Christmas (I'll do a post on these soon since they were a once in a life time treat and I LOVE them!) - and I think this dress will go so cute with my new hair and new boots! And this was only £1 too!

And last but not least - it wouldn't have been a successful dress haul unless at least one of them was velvet!! :-) Again my phone camera isn't the best, but in real life this dress is a beautiful deep wine colour. I'm not usually a big fan of cowl necks, but it actually looks really lovely with this style of dress. The label suggests its vintage, although no brand or name is on there. It'll be perfect with my black sling-backs for any formal events I have come up or if I wanna get fancy for meals with my friends. This was also £1!

So for £4 I got 4 amazing dresses! Ty Hafan is amazing!

I'm not working at the minute - hence fewer posts! I will be back soon with a post on my shoes though and no doubt I won't be able to resist another round of the shops in the near future!

Be safe and be blessed!

Love, Harriet x

My newest vintage acquisition acquired via eBay over the weekend. These Harris tweed blazers were beyond my reach 30 years ago, but I landed this for $30 including shipping. #harristweedjacket #secondhandseptember #twicelovedclothes #charityshopfashion #charityshopfashionista #ebayshopping #winterwools #whoneedsacoat #britishtweed #iusedtowearthesewithskirtsandhighheels #powersuits #ofdaysgoneby #secondhandrose #secondhandclothes #reducereuserecyle #thrifting #onlinethriftstore https://www.instagram.com/p/B2VN3Lgpy6P/?igshid=15wiemvr9kt10

Hope you’re all having a lovely relaxing weekend ⛅️ . I’ve started off my Sunday by baking banana bread (something that I’ve never done before in my life, so keep your fingers crossed for the next hour that it doesn’t explode in the oven or something!) 😂 . I don’t know about you guys but I like to use my Sundays to relax and prepare myself for the week ahead - a cup of tea, a nice brunch, a long walk and plenty of time cuddling up with Sam and Puss 🐈🧔🏻 . What’re you guys doing to relax today? . . . . . #vegan #vegangirls #vegangirl #vegancouple #cowboy #cowboyboots #cowgirl #lazysunday #selfcare #fashion #fashionblogger #sustainable #sustainablefashion #sustainableshopping #secondhand #secondhandfashion #thrifted #thriftedfashion #thriftshop #charityshop #charityshopping #charityshopfashion #lakedistrict #cumbria #lakedistrictuk #veganlifestyle #sustainablelifestyle #sundaymorning #veganmakeup #makeup (at Penrith- Lake District) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL1K0kDAUw1/?igshid=166n2nrruy0vf

#newyearseve vs #newyearsday . It’s the first time in a few years that I haven’t woken up with a massive hangover so at least I’ve got 2020 to thank for that! 🍻 . I hope you all managed to celebrate safely last night! . Here’s to a hopefully much better year for us all ✨ . . . . . #2020 #2021 #happynewyear #littleblackdress #lbd #sparkles #tattoo #ink #inked #makeup #vegan #veganuary #outfit #winteroutfit #fashion #fashionblogger #ootd #newyear #rings #bohemian #grunge #veganmakeup #sustainablefashion #thriftstorefashion #charityshopfashion #eyemakeup #curlyhair (at Penrith- Lake District) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJgDfJdAAIB/?igshid=1x1khbwu3j74r

Today is my 25th birthday, and as I do every year on the 7th of June, I’ve been reflecting on the past 12 months . Mostly I’ve been trying to not to focus on the things that could have been, our wedding, first anniversary, countless holidays and time spent with people we love . All of those things would have been amazing but at the same time I’ve spent the past year learning to love the little things; time spent gardening, making art, listening to music, watching the world go by. I’ve learned to appreciate the food that I eat, my physical imperfections, the sun and (more often than that) the rain on my skin . I feel lucky to have my fiancé, my friends, my family, my gorgeous cat! I feel lucky to be alive and healthy and to be in a position where I can give small donations to keep others alive and healthy too . So here’s to 25, to stuffing my tummy with Mexican tapas tonight and walking home at sunset, holding hands with my favourite person ✨ . . . . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #art #inked #tattoo #tattoodesign #sustainable #sustainablefashion #charityshop #charityshopfashion #thriftstore #thrifted #thriftedfashion #charityshopfinds #thriftstorefinds #artistaesthetic #jodiebrackenartwork #grunge #punk #fashion #grungeaesthetic #aesthetic #ink #sketchbook #drawing #artwork #style #ootd #veganfashion #vegan #outfit #artist (at Penrith- Lake District) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP0uI9eJlgO/?utm_medium=tumblr
