Here are my top 3 items from this sight.
Vintage 90's Baroque Patterned Shell Bomber Jacket- €31.36
I love this jacket, the colour is subtle yet really sets of the gold pattern. For me it would be perfect for college, a simple piece like this can be worn on a night out as well as during the day and is a perfect addition to any wardrobe. It can be worn all year round and with a number of different styles and materials. Its also not to dear. If this piece was in topshop it would defiantly retail for €50+ which makes this jacket a steal.
Vintage 80's Floral Mesh T-Shirt- €13.44
This mesh tshirt really is a bargain. I love the V shape and the floral detail, the mesh is placed in just the right position and is similar to the crop trend. This top is very versatile and could be worn a number of different ways making it a good buy. It has a completely mesh back which may make wearing a bra an issue and there is only one available in size 8 but apart from this its a great investment.
Vintage 80's Beige Blazer Wool Jacket- €24.64
This blazer is simple but versatile. The colour is perfect and it can be paired with a number of different outfits for both day and night. As it is made of wool its perfect for the cold winter months when all you want is something warm yet stylish, which trust me is a combination hard to find. Unlike a coat its perfect for indoor wear as wear as outdoor. And the same goes for this as for the last two pieces. Its a steal!
The only downfall I can see about the Vintage Store is that they do not have the option to buy directly online but they do leave there number so I assume if you ring them up they will send the item out to you and tell you how they would prefer to be paid.
The Cats Got The Cream
Top 3.
Crop top & high waisted skirt 90s grunge Bart Simpson-€43.68
So I know this is totally ridiculous! but I love it! ever since I saw Cara Delevingne rock the Bart Simpson crop top i have been dying for it! and here it is! Skirt and all. I do admit it is abit daring to wear all as one but the top alone is perfect for casual comfy day wear and is a sure conversation starter. As for the Bart Simpson print is clearly timeless which means this outfit could be worn in the years to come. After all the Simpsons have yet to go out of trend and are known world wide! €43.68 is a very good price for the skirt and top. It may not be to everyones taste but i love it and need it! disagree? Eat My shorts! (or in this case my skirt and crop top combo!!)
amazing high waited pastel shorts-€39.20
These shorts are loud and proud. I admit at first glance they were a no from me but the more I look at them the more I love them. Despite the bold print these shorts can be worn with a number of different styles. As they are high waisted they are perfect to wear with a crop top.They can be worn as a casual look or on a night out. they look good with high heels or flats and are perfect for festival and holiday wear. Although I do feel €39.20 is a little pricey for just the shorts.
90s vintage denim jacket -€39.20
I love love love this jacket. The sleeve and collar detail is subtle but stylish. The zips are statement zips yet dont take from the jacket. The jacket looks comfy and cozy which is exactly what you want from a jacket. It is laid back and cool. It can be worn open or closed. The jacket is loud yet not too attention seeking. Its timeless is easy to get wear out of!
Gone Retro
Retro 90's Black White Mixed Sleeve Crop Top T Shirt 2839- €16.80
Considering this is a retro vintage top it is very similar to tops currently on sale in Topshop, River Island etc. It is again a crop top but then again what isnt these days. What i like about this crop top however is despite my previous rant this crop top is perfect to wear with low rise jeans making it good for casual wear. It is perfect for to wear with statement jewelry another trend that is popular at the moment. The colours in the top mean it can be worn with a range of colours depending on your mood and occasion.
Vintage Retro Aztec Native Geometric Waistcoat 2315- €31.36
This may not be to everyones taste. And I admit that I'm not the biggest waistcoat fan that ever lived but theres something appealing about this waistcoat. The cut is flattering and isnt completely shapeless. Its the perfect addition to the wardrobe of someone with an open mind. This would look lovely over a dress and would really set off a plan outfit. The styling on the model in the pic is simple and tasteful and shows how vintage clothes can be perfect in the street style trends.
Retro High Waisted Wrangler Turquoise Mint Jeans 2397-€44.80
These jeans remind me of a pair of mom jeans I recently tried on in Topshop. However I'd almost go as far as to say that these are nicer. I love the colour and the roll up at the bottom. Rolling the bottom of jeans is a trend that has really caught on (thank god because I'm short and rolling my jeans up is not a choice is a must!). These jeans are high waisted and very on trend at the moment. The pastel colour is on trend with the soft colour visible in collects in Topshop and Miss Selfridge.
I could sit here all day and write about ASOS Marketplace. Thats the beauty of it! Its so large and endless you could spend days surfing it and still not see everything. There is something for everyone and at prices that even I can afford!
