No Knickers

I am loving pretaportobello.com

I have found a fabulous fur coat inspiration for those of us who live in sleepy market towns to satisfy our cravings for something slightly "different." Pretaportobello is an online market that sells accessories and fashion from Portobello market and will deliver them to your front door.

PAP are particularly good at the obligatory summer BBQ dresses and perfect for any of us who have skinny legs and knees with a circumference of less than 15cm! Personally, I have neither of those attributes and so the BBQ dresses aren't for me and I don't want to sweat it out in stockings in August.

I use PAP for boyfriend cardigans, jackets and cute knitwear.

Frills are a great cover for miniature boobage and this jacket provides a perfect June cover up. It is 100% wool and only £49, so a perfect no knickers cover up. The black frilly by Toki and Nabi is great for work as well as for casual and looks more expensive than the beige. If you need a jacket, then this black frilly is a FCANK delight.

I am particularly loving the fine knit boyfriend cardigans with chiffon in a variety of colours. These are perfect for a relaxed weekend over skinny jeans or leggings. These boyfriend beauties are made from a hemp and acrylic mix which is a new knit blend. They are £49 which considering the extra chiffon detail, could be worth it but there is no guarantee on quality. 

The Lellow Lucy grey short sleeve bow button cardie is a cute addition to our vintage look and only costs £33.00. This has to be my favourite!

If you fancy haggling, you have a chance to in their "let's trade" section which allows you to make three offers on their particular products. Haggling online gives you the freedom to come in with a no knickers offer without lots of embarrassment. You can haggle 'til your heart's content and bag a bargain!

Personally, I think PAP are great for tops and dresses but their accessories aren't quite hitting all my style buttons…especially their bags..but what they do well; they do brilliantly.

Until next week…
