clothes swapping:)

i love clothes swapping!its fun to rummage through your girlies clothes and try everything on and swap about-endless wardbrobe potential!
ha i was thinking the other day-about half my clothes actually belong to other people, and how me and my friends have developed a sort of library-loaning system for clothes!:)
important fshion items-these range from my blue leopard print leggings, to my bow skirt, or one of my 'vicki special' dresses!these are all short term lol only, with fines accrued for late return(extra borrowing of friends important fashion items!)
Basically-no prolonged stealing of statement and trademark items!!

Medium best-stuff you wear alot, but can cope without..includes useful things like tops, jeans etc etc most peoplesmedium best is made up of things pikied from friends and long forgotton anyway!so longer loans available:p

'eww, thats scabby, you can have that'items-include things like comfort tshirts and hoodies-once loaned, will never reappear again! Beware forgetting they are not actually yours...offering to lend your friend an old tshirt then realising that the said'skanky' item is actually theres..well not always a plan!!
anyway, other peoples comfort clothes are much more appealing than your own!!

one off, unique items-are sacred and generally only lent to try and cheer a miserable friend up:) the promise of a loan of one of these items is greeted with much excitement-as it tends to be something you have lusted after for ages...
recent example of this...my friend 'permemently borrowed' this awsome grey smock dress from a freind...who had pikied it from her friend!its a really simple dress, but is MAGIC as looks good on everyone!had been coverting it for ages, and actually had the pleasure of a week long loan...in which time i wore it everyday! my friend recently got it back, and i bet she is now regretting leaving it anywhere near me again!:p

hehehe

knitting

ok, so the plan is- a navy and white striped scarf, then i am going to sew some red bows on to it-applique style, so will make patch-like bows from red fabric to sew on!and im thinking might experiment and try amd make mittens this year:)
also i REALLY want to make a sailor girl type dress, have pretty much got the pattern figured out, so will have to wait til i can save up for the fabric now.
then i need to start making everyones christmas presents!!:)
Hmn ive been thinking, what with it getting a fair bit chilly now, i haveny been wearing my usual vic outfits...appear to have adopted a winter uniform of my amazing grey tweed shorts and blue and white striped cardi, with burgandy tights. very cute, lol but feels shockingly grown upby my standards!what i needis to make some warmer winter style tunic type dresses.
trouble is, a while a go now, i had a mad wardbrobe clear out of all the stuff i horded i never wore, felt bad in, or just didnt, and will never fit! a bit of advice...if your going to do this, DON'T do it in summer, and leave yourself with an (albeit amazing and fantastic!) capsule warbrobe of pretty dresses (mostly nautical/bow/bird themed) because however cute it is, your totslly stuffed in winter!
:p having said that, you all know i adore my clothes, and its a bad day indeed if i wear anything other than a 'vicki special'-motto-there is few things i wouldnt wear!

its alright though...cos im having a good time!

Ok, so this is all going to be about things that make me happy...some things to know about me...im a big loser:) but im proud! i love wearing mad clothes, tacky shoes and im quite happy to look like a bit of a fool if it makes me happy! I love clothes and jewellery-but not in a superficial clothes junkie kinda way, i just like how you can play around. Im not the most confident person that you will ever meet. My friends tell me ive got a 'funky' sense of humour, and i love making poeople laugh. I adore kings of leon, i love anything pink, bows, and sparkly stuff.ooh and im a bit obsessed with my hair straightners!
Today im wearing tights with a bow print on them, a blue cord skirt, and a burgandy jumper, pretty boring actually, so think will put my ballet shoes on(actual ballet shoes, i kid you not)
God i sound superficial...but hey, im not trying to write to make myself sound fantastic. Ive been going through a bit of a funny patch in life, and its made m realise that you have to start trying to be happy with yourself before anyone else can...ha i appear to have a tendency to say the cheesiest things! but also, well its made me realise who my real freinds are, and how important they are to me:) so im gonna make today a good day!:)
