Honor Roll: Mia from Ireland

About Mia: My name is Mia and I'm an Irish student currently studying Creative Digital Media in Dublin. I really enjoy fashion, but what I like most about it would have to be the way in which it allows everyone to create their own personal style. I am continually amazed by vintage clothing for it's quality, stylishness and of course timelessness. I also enjoy photography, reading anything I get my hands on and playing music on my Decks which I should probably use more often! When I'm finished college I would like to work in Radio or behind the scenes in TV.

Old School Cool Treasure: I've bought three lovely items from your store, but one was a gift so I am going to talk about the two I have the pleasure of wearing myself.

An amazing white vintage sweater with the cutest blue ribbons and pink roses, as soon as I saw it I knew I HAD to buy it! I love the fact that I can wear it on cold rainy days and have my day brightened up, it instantly puts a smile on my face. This is such a versatile piece, I could wear it with denim shorts & tights, over a dress or skirt and with skinny jeans. I would pair it with one of my skull rings to toughen it up a bit and a pair of white patent Doc Marten's or maybe a pair of my studded boots. And of course a bow in my hair!

I love these denim dungarees, I don't wear jeans much and like to find alternatives particularly for college which involves a lot of practical work. The fact that they are shorts makes them super girly and feminine. Again, another versatile piece, it is so easy to make them look good. I would pair them with any colour lace shirt underneath, or a striped top, maybe a button up vintage blouses with peter pan collars and cable knit chunky cardigans. Classic oxford brogues look great with them & loafers for an old school cool. I'm also planning to wear my vintage baseball jacket with them once the weather gets colder!
