Money Saving Blues

I'm going to Stockholm on Thursday, and supposedly the cost of living over there is pretty high so I'm trying to save money at the moment. This usually means I find to-die-for items every where I look, unfortunately. I thought I'd share two of my favorite, more unusual pieces that I've come across lately. 
Click here for this khaki army jacket from Topshop with one of my frequently used and abused sayings on the back. I love the DIY look of the writing, and with prices like Topshop's I would consider buying a jacket and painting this on myself!
This bralet was featured on the NastyGal blog but I think it's from an Etsy store.. I'll keep trying to find a link for you - but let us all just marvel at its beauty for now. :)

Hope you're all well, I'll bring my camera to Sweden and have another travel post for you on my return! Meanwhile, there is supposed to be wifi in our hostel so follow me on twitter and instagram @eleanorcos for real-time updates! x

  4. That bralet is adorable. I'm sure you could find some cute fabric like that somewhere and make your own version (and maybe sell them too). Happy travels :)

  8. Ha I work at Topshop and totally agree with doing it yourself! Some of slogan items are so so overpriced, I mean £18 for a t-shirt that says Geek... really? I have a feeling this will end up being just as popular.
