LEVI'S VINTAGE DENIM JACKET


Howdy people of the internet. I bring good news. I have, officially, DITCHED MY AGE-12-FAR-TOO-TIGHT DENIM JACKET! Can ya believe it. I am as shocked as you are. I've been on the hunt for ages and when I was in London over Christmas, I refused to spend my Christmas money on anything but. I wandered down Brick Lane, no denim jacket. I skipped into Rokit, no denim jacket. I ran into Topshop, no denim jacket. I rolled (not really) into Spitalfields, no denim jacket. I cried myself into Urban Outfitters on High Street Kensington- DENIM JACKET! Yep, it always has to be me who ends up falling in love with the most expensive one. Of course, loads of the second hand, vintage shops had loads but they were either too big and swamped me, covered in stains, had bloody fur around the collar or were a weird shade of denim. Anyway, in Urban Outfitters, I ended up buying this for £50 (it was meant to be £55 but randomly the guy gave it me for cheaper- but I'm not complaining. (This is also the guy who gave me the camera for half price too!)). It's the perfect shape and shade of denim- I think I've already got the price-per-wear down to 2p (does anyone else work that out too?!) so it hurts less having spent so much. Anyway, yes, I'm in love.  I'm feeling the denim jacket lurrrrrrrrrrrrrrve. 
I also need to announce the winner of my 500 follower giveaway, it is, dun dun dunnnn (*drum roll*)

  7. ah this is gorgeous looks like it was worth your struggle! i hate it when the too-indie-for-words kids wander around with denim jackets that are clearly 5 times too big but cause it's a denim jacket and more importantly vintage - they had to buy it! ox

  14. This jacket is so lovely - well done on your find! I really need a new denim jacket, mine is so old and tatty and a strange colour so doesn't go with everything. Just came across your blog and think its really fab, so following now :-)

  15. I am Mariam used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Priests olalude abija); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as oduakar1@live.com He travel sometimes.love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,gambling voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,cancer voodoo,Trouble in marriage,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
    more.
