Hi There!
Welcome to my blog Retro Wanderlust.
Firstly,
a bit about myself! I'm a 20 year old cat eye obsessed, music loving,
red lipstick hoarding, shoe-a-holic with a desire to travel the
world. My passions lie in all things fashion, beauty, travel and
music, so i've created this blog to write about the things I love.
I
am definitely one of those girls born in the wrong era, and yearn for
the days of the swinging sixties. So naturally I have an unhealthy
obsession with staring at pictures of audrey Hepburn, Anna Karina,
Brigitte Bardot and hoping that one day I will magically possess
their wardrobe, perfect hair and legs. Not to mention Alexa Chung,
who’s hair and cat eye flick are the ultimate dream. But for now I
have settled with taking inspiration from the 'it' girls of the
sixties and today and attempt to encapsulate the essence of their
style.
I
adore music. I learnt guitar at age 12 and from then on my adoration
for music, from bob dylan, to the arctic monkeys to the Beatles and
the Kinks, has grown. I love hunting down old records and going to
gigs- I challenge anyone to hear 60,000 people singing don't look
back in anger back at Noel Gallagher and not have that 'Oh my god'
moment and goosebumps all over.
As
for travel, I love exploring new places. The ultimate dream is to
live in New York, but for now i'll settle with Newcastle whilst
booking as many city breaks as I can afford to cram in a year. The
dream is to travel round Italy (mainly stuffing my face with pizza
and pasta!) and of course the USA- a route 66 road trip needs to
happen!
Basically
i'm your average 20 year old who is addicted to lipstick, spends far
too much money in Topshop and loves good food, good music and a good
vintage shop. I've always wanted to start a blog so I can ramble on
about the things I love so I finally took the plunge and created this
blog. I hope you enjoy!
Love
Harriet
