ME, MYSELF & MACCLESFIELD Pssst! I originally started this blog back in 2010 when I had first moved back from London to lovely Macclesfield. Now I'm 26 and living in Levenshulme, Manchester and it's september 2012. So although the blog suggests I live there still, I don't. I do however, frequent the town to see my lovely family. Most importantly I stop off at the CHAZZA'S without fail, occassioanlly bumping into people that I'd rather not. Here are my findings.....

Outfits courtesy of the chazza, the whole chazza and nothing but the chazza.
Jaeger Wool tank top 1.00, shirt- a great hand-me-down from a friend but bought in a chazza!
Sparkly, tassled top 2.99 and velvet tapered trousers 4.29 both from HFT chazza. A great outfit!
Berry red funnel neck coat, 5.00 from 'Help the hospice' chazza.
velvet dress. 5.00 Scope, although I noticed on my statement the guy must've typed 15.00 instead, oh well! All for a good cause! Belt, as seen before is ESCADA- 50p!!! from Age Concern. Brown leather buckle shoes (just seen) Oxfam 3.99. Worn here with pleather trousers.
Sparkly lurex top, 2.00 from 5pound shop Oldham street, dog tooth pencil skirt form Age Concern chazza 1.00 , clutch from a vintage sale, bought as a bundle.
Retro lurex top 2.99 from Cancer Research, denim high waisted mini skirt 1.50 Windy Ways.
culottes 1.00 from Windy Ways & over sized cardi, st Michael's, 2.50 Samaritans.
8 shoulder pads later & BLACK IS BACK
Chazza Finds.
The picture isn't too clear. This is basically a long blazer/dressing gown type garment. I tried something similar on in Topshop last week but that was 120 quid! Can be worn over pleather trousers or just tights. I didn't mind spending a fiver in Samaritans for this almost identical version. Worn here with a chazza shop belt, I plan on purchasing a long length of leather and using it as a tie.
Can't remember where from but think it was 2.99. Very Issey!
Cancer Research 4 quid. Mum says its "vile" :)
MOHO vintage sale (weighed as part of a bundle so not certain, but not much!)
Again something I've been looking for on the high street and not finding, a slouchy black blazer! This was from Samaritans again, 2.50, two massive shoulder pads removed and a wash and it's lovely. Dead similar to this one below from Topshop 65 quid!
These pictures are embarrassing, yet at least you can see what they're like on, right? The skirt is box pleated and pretty crazy! The little jacket is ace. It's old Miss Selfridge and the top half is lace, very cute.
Happy Days.

Outerwear fit for a northern winter & stylish too.
Winter is coming and everyone is banging on about 'the coat' I've mainly wrapped myself up in sheep skin coats from The Chazzas, I have two so far and I'm sure I'll add another one to the mix before long. They really are the warmest of coats! This year I've been searching for a suitable alternative, as although sheep skins never fail me, they do have a tendency to look a bit bulky and unfeminine. Furthermore they are incredibly tricky to clean with most dry cleaners not accepting them due to the expense. I've modelled (very badly) two that I have picked up thus far.
The first is a heavy, wool, military style, midi length coat in midnight navy. I wouldn't usually go for this shape but I really love it! It cost 6 pounds from Age Concern. It didn't have a single mark on it and it also didn't smell musty or old. TOTAL FIND.
It reminded me of this one from Gucci, but it wasn't 2,210 quid... yikes!
The second is probably one of my favourite finds of 2011. Capes are due for a resurgence again, seeing as though Autumn is about the only time you can wear one. Also coats in 'pop' colours are huge news. I noticed there were some in Primani the other day, change the buttons people and no one will know. So here is my offering, one a-ma-zing letter box, red, wool cape, again modelled by me, tit. It's just got to get that bit more colder and I'll be strutting in this bad boy. Cost 7 quid from East Cheshire Hospice Chazza.
Above cape Sonia By Sonia Rykiel 500 quid and below M Missoni 725 quid.
I actually think mine trumps the lot!
