I had hopes of getting loads done today including packing for this weekend's End Of The Road festival but my plans went to pot after the postman delivered a parcel from saucy Antipodean minx Helga so I just had to go and try everything on instead.
This 1970's groovy gingham all-in-one is so me! I've accessorised it with a 1970s elasticated waist belt, a jumble sale vanity case and a snazzy Christian Dior silk scarf (all found for less than 75p) and some ancient TopShop cherry red leather wedges.
This Mary Quant tiger print lycra catsuit and vintage shoulder bag rock my world ! I've worn them with a 1960s suede jerkin (car boot sale) some Edwardian lace-up boots (British Heart Foundation) and lots of tribal jewellery.
How much do you love this bag? I bet it's not as much as I do!
I'm wearing this fab cotton maxi skirt with an Indian blouse (50p from Islamic Relief) and a Lamani gypsy belt, worn as a necklace. My roots are bugging me so much in this picture I've chopped my head off.
There's also a bottle of New Zealand Kaitaia sauce (because I smother all my food in chili sauce), a pretty vintage bangle and a hipster hippy rainbow belt.
A Stay Strong Christchurch badge. Helga, you know how much I love you.
I'm spending the day with Liz tomorrow so I don't know how I'm going to find time to pack and to make matters worse I stupidly skimped on hair dye and used some cheap Poundland crap instead of my usual Boots' Black so I've got to redo my roots before I do anything, arghhhh!

Those are amazing catsuits - you look fantastic in them. Oh, to have a figure as good as yours!
There's cheap and there's too cheap when it comes to saving money - 'Back to (Boots) Black' hair dye for you m'dear. Think I will have to join you - my tresses are looking dire at the moment! Hope you have a great day with Liz x

End of the Road? Pack your thermals, Vix - it`s bloody cold out there at night (having just spent a week on a campsite). Hope you have a lovely time. Lynn

Love that secret squirrel acorn bag - Helga is a genius! That Mary Q outfit is insane - in the best way - and I love the maxi skirt, gorgeous colours and pattern. Mind you, it takes very little to distract me from packing, one of my very least favourite chores...
You look so awsome in the gingham & I like your vanity case.
You look SUPER HOT in that tiger lycra catsuit! WOWWW
The acorn bag is just FREAKING Fantastically cute! omg I adore the thing.
The cotton maxi is funky I love the color and design.
Vix, No-one can work a jumpsuit like you can. I hope Dorset is still nice and sunny for you, and I suggest checking out the charity shops, I found some great purchases around those parts. Xx
OMG VIX!!!! If I had your figure I would defo be strutting my stuff in the tiger suit! And the checked hot suit looks amazing too - very Youtha Joyce, what a star she was too!
You have blown me away with that tiger print lycra catsuit! You should be in CATS the musical with that baby!
The acorn bag is super cute!
Helga knows you inside out!
I hate being in a rush with a million things to do! I hope you find the time to pack and relax! xxx
Helga has excelled herself, these outfits are FULL of style, fun and character.
I'm assuming you and Helga met via Blogger, and if so, what a fantastic pairing of positivity, vibrancy and humour.
I'll never tire of seeing your ensembles, I'm raising a glass (well, mug of tea) to you and Helga as I type - hoorah for non-conformism!
Vix, you are the undisputed queen of the jumpsuit! Soooo sexy, soooo you!
Love the colour and print of the maxi skirt too.
Helga done good!
Boo to having to redo roots, what a pain, but have a fab day with Liz tomorrow. You'll get your packing done, you are a model of efficiency in the packing department! xxxxxx
awesome presents from oversee!! you styled your new fab pieces so delicious... can't wait to see them next time.

Amor,

Hot Mama! all you needed was a whip to tame Jon. :)
I cannot get over the Mary Quant tiger print lycra catsuit... hot hot hot! Good luck getting all organised and with the root dyeing. X
That jumpsuit is my very favourite outfit that I've seen you in. I LOVE it. I had one exactly like it for my Sindy doll when I was young and it was a favourite even then! I think I chose wedges for Sindy to wear with it too! Just gorgeous.
Nicki xx
That tiger piece is such a find! Wow!
AAaaagggh!! I don't know which one I love more! The gingham is FABULOUS - I WANT ONE so much I think I will have to figure out how to make one for summer... and the tiger one is SPECTACULAR! You look just beautiful in both, amor.

Holy mother of - MIAOW! Vix, I believe I am in need of some of that hot sauce to revive me! You have blown me away woman espc. in that cat suit! Have you noticed every sentence ends in an exclamation point! I think I need to lie down.
If I could I would keep you in a lifetime supply of Boots' Black. After all, we can't have our Vix gadding about with her roots exposed!

Love the gingham great vintage :) Ugh I know exactly about your root scenario I did the same thing before when my hair was black I had one color that took really well on my roots and one time I got something else and it did not work and I had to redo it!! ~Hoping your new roots turn out wonderful!! Enjoy your new treasures ~Love Heather

Ooh awesomeness, loving the gingham jumpsuit! :)
That bag is truly stunning. I am very, very jealous. I'd be jealous of the amazing catsuits too but I know even in my wildest dreams I'd never be slim enough or have the balls enough to wear something that bold. Much love to you for rocking them both!
Major love for that gingham jumpsuit!Love how you've styled it, especially red scarf))
Amazing clothes! My mum used to have a bag like the one you show and I always wanted it! x
I adore the oak bag, isn't it gorgeous. What a lovely package of goodies, I'd put off chores for playing too xx
Oh lordy! Those jumpsuits are an awesome sight to behold! Gawd love the amazing Helga! What a woman. I must say though, my dear, chopping your head of on account of roots really is most dramatic!
The all in one is SO. NEAT. It's so neat! I could die! Jealous! Bones!
That's a pretty exciting parcel! I particularly like the turquoise floral skirt! How I've missed your blog Vix!
Meow, love that catsuit!! xx
