Decade Obsession

I have sat up to attention at my sudden desire to own 80's and 90's clothing. Although, currently I have no money to buy them with, so I'm settling for window shopping for now.

For example, I was scrolling through www.lookbook.nu recently and I came across a girl wearing a vintage, mink-colored, oversized tee with a pocket on. I'm not describing it well but paired with black and white flatforms and a backwards SnapBack, it was so 80's.

Another example is of the acid wash denim which I fucking adore. I already own a light colored denim jacket from rocket (£25 on sale) and a denim skirt like Rihanna's in her We Found Love video from Urban Outfitters (£40). But I yearn for 80's/90's cut jeans. The ones I have found are either too big for me, wouldn't suit me, or are £100.

Any suggestions?

I also have an Etsy account which is made for my own era needs. Its perfect for bargains! Although I haven't actually bought anything from there yet.

One more side to 90's clothing I have fallen in love with in the Grunge style. I have House of Holland Suspender Tights but I am desperate for the hold ups from Asos (picture below) for £9. I have a leather jacket from Forever 21 which I got for £27 which is my pride and joy and customized men's Primark tops which are grungy and OH just perfect.

Any more suggestions for sites or blogs or grunge sources or new clothing ranges - tell me immediately!
