that thursday feeling

well hello!! i'm in a very good mood today - finally college is over, so no more work, and i only have three weeks until i move into our lovely new flat in glasgow :) i literally can't wait! the flat's just gorgeous, it's right on the main shopping street in the city centre, and it's built around this amazing little courtyard with trees and benches... i can't wait to take some photos and show you :)

the boyfriend's off to belgium for the rockwerchter festival on sunday for two whole weeks, which i'm not really looking forward to, it'll be the longest time we've been apart. but it's going to be a great time to catch up with my friends and have some girlie time before i go; we've got lots of movie nights in and big nights out planned! it's been a while since i've been on a really good night out so i'll get lots of pics...!

so here's what i am wearing today, just to sit in the garden at my mother-in-law's:

top - max c london, belt - h&m, chinos - h&m

please excuse the horrific mess behind me, we are in the middle of packing!

i had a hunt around the charity shops in aberdeen yesterday, just to see if i could find anything new and very definitely cheap - money is hard to come by just recently! i find that the charity shops in aberdeen tend to think of themselves as vintage shops, and charge a ridiculous amount for some of their stuff. it seems impossible to find a real bargain in them now, unless you're prepared to really dig around. so i traipsed through the whole town, and only did i find something i liked in the very last shop... typical!

but they were worth the walk i guess - i got these vintage Wallis peg-leg trousers in a lovely caramel colour for the grand sum of £3.25, not to0 shabby! please excuse the way they look in the picture, for some reason they look hideously big but they are very nice - i'll wear them once they've had a wash and put a picture on here!!

have you found any little treasures in your local charity shops recently?
