Pinup outfit - Cute and Casual



Aloha everyone, so I had a cute and causal look the other day as I was going out for a walk with family, I didn't want to wear anything too fancy and I thought it would be a good opportunity to show girls what they could wear if they don't want to wear anything too dressed up but still want a pinup vibe.

This outfit was on a budget too which is great, the jeans I picked up at New Look, I picked them because they are high waisted which I love and I really liked the colour of them as they are a brighter blue than most jeans. I also tend to roll my jeans up at the bottom to give them that retro vibe. I paired it with a cute striped bardot top from Primark and on whim I decided to turn this outfit into a nautical theme so I also put on this super cute cardigan which was from Primark too, it's hard to see from the picture but it is covered in cute little anchors.

Following the nautical theme I also wore these amazingly cute pumps that I picked up at TK Maxx, I love how you can find pinup inspired clothes at the most unlikely places. These are super comfy and are now my go to shoes and the anchors print is adorable!

So I'm absolutely mad about bags, they are my favourite accessory so this was my favourite item in my outfit. I think this is one of my favourite bags ever, I picked it up in an amazing vintage shop in Hebden Brdge in Yorkshire called Lucy and the Caterpillar Boutique. It was love at first sight when I walked into this shop its just full of vintage treasures and the bag really stood out to me. It's an original 1950s unused box bag that had the original receipt with it. Its in perfect condition and I love the colour. Its so beautiful and one of my favourite vintage items to date.

Thanks for reading Guys and Gals x
