#107 a modern wiggle from M&S

Need a wiggle skirt in a hurry? This lovely little black M&S number sits perfectly on the waist and, although could do with an inch or two on the knee, is not bad for a high street number!

Marks & Spencer         £22.50

#105 Peplum love

This pretty pretty coral Peplum dress from Dotty P's is so sweet. The little 'waffle' detail adds such a pretty detail to this lovely dress. The colour is so pre war, add a cloche hat and a white fur and you could be a 30s starlet!

So pretty Dorothy Perkins          £20!

#103 Mad Women

Wowza, Do you watch ManMen? What an amazing influence that this program has had on fashion eh ladies?

This 50's inspired sweetheart with a darling crosshatch fabric is from Closet for Dorothy Perkins.

Dotty P's have a great range of pencil dresses but this one caught my eye as it sits just below the knee line rather than the usual, frustrating and all to frequent mini dresses of this ilk.

And as Roger Dtirling would say "When God closes a door, he opens a dress"

Dotty P's       £42

#102 From the cover of 1930s Vogue to Top Shop

This stunning satin dress could have been worn by Rita Hayworth, it's so fabulous. Imagine this with a white long fur stole draped around the neck and some long silk opera gloves. And it clings to all the right places in all the right ways!

"I haven`t had everything from life. I`ve had too much." - Rita

#101 Missy L love Missy S

Need a coat to keep you toasty this winter? But still want to look classic and classy?
Well pop along to Miss Selfridge... I did!
They have too many wonderful vintage inspired coats on sale at the moment, garenteed to keep you warm but looking great and with the upcoming cold snap, we all need a bit of warmth, don't we ladies?!

This military style jacket is fussed up with the playful ruffles, this jacket is available in other colours and even a mac version but I do have a soft spot for this earthy colour. Actually,  I loved this so much I bought it!

Miss S          £75.00








There is nothing that says 50s chic than a bit of leopard print and this is screaming it! Matching colour a cuffs and the slanted pockets add perfect, detail to this wonderful trench.

Imagine this with high, high hair and a splash of red... Sassy!

Miss S       £85


.........
I'm speachless.... I just wish I saw this first... Well maybe I should have two coats for winter.

Miss S...... £85












This 30s/ 40s style faux fur just oozes class.... The layered cut fur adds a certain je ne said qua.  Imagine stepping through the wardrobe into this sweetheart! And too make it even more attractive, it's in the sale too!!!

Miss S.           £75












This lovely 60s inspired coat, calls for some cream wool tights, a mini dress and some black pumps and maybe a nice big fur hat! 

pretty as a picture, Miss S.       £85












Keep warm and have a snuggley winter xxxx
