Tie die for



The layout above is a bit of  mess due to four hours of failed experimentation on Picnik, but these are some snaps from my lovely Saturday in the sun. It was an incredibly typical Saturday for us, up, breakfast out and a trip to Broadway market, where all this vintage loveliness was captured, before a wander along the canal to Dalston. Sadly, somewhere along the way, my phone was pickpocketed. But I refused to let that spoil the fun.
The market has a great vintage clothes stall, where those ace tie-die tshirts, excellent printed midis and ridiculous silk harems were captured. Sadly they were too small for me, but I saw a stylist snap them up along with a whole armful of other goodies just moments later.
I was so close to buying about three of the tshirts, but although they were made with vintage, they were mostly of the heavy fruit of the loom variety, rather than the well-worn paper-thin vintage t variety, so I didn't feel they'd hang very well. Will definitely keep my eye out for more in the future - they were a snip at £8.
My outfit photographed terribly, thanks to Jon's apathetic 'one-shot' approach - literally, he would take only one photo - but I was pretty chuffed with it for what felt like the first day of spring.
