There are are few wardrobe items that to me just make life easier. Like a grey cashmere sweater, a crisp white shirt, and my good ole trusty vintage Levi denim shorts. They are an all year round wardrobe staple in my opinion, and hey, if they are good enough for Alexa Chung...

Now since we're still in-between seasons, and thanks to the amazing weather we keep having here in Wales, I am indulging in one of my favourite things to wear: vintage denim shorts. 

If you thought finding the perfect pair would be easy, your soooo wrong! It's not for the faint hearted and definitely not for the quick shopper, buying these babies takes patience and time and a loyal and honest BFF. The length, rise, and wash will determine how they will look when on.

So chick I'm going to show you three different ways I like to wear them, so you and your Levi's can live happily ever after together..

Look 1: Keep to a lighter wash denim for a summer casual look.  Add vintage tee's and trainers.

Look 2: Choose a darker wash denim like Miss Chung for after dark and team them with a classic blazer and blouse. This look is understated sexy and a great way to get the whole 'done, but undone' thing going on.

Look 3:  For your winter look choose either light or dark wash denim here and add opaques  or sheer pattern tights. Now Just add biker jacket and boots if your feelin like a rock chick or Doc Martens  and fishnets if you wanna do the whole grunge thing.

So here we are this weeks countdown to the Paris Texas Vintage fashion road trip and with that in mind I'm going to talk about the Groupie, groupie style is all about looking sexy but low maintenance, but don't overdo it, and look like you're wearing all your belongings at one! Short shorts, tiny t-shirts, scarves and most definitely the obligatory sunglasses are good. 

Generally, looking as though you could be in the band and not just with the band is a great way to get a backstage pass. The musician is your style icon, look to 60's bands for your inspiration like the Rolling Stones who were not afraid to be free and experiment with their clothes. Their groupies were hot property just look at Marianne Faithfull, who in my opinion was so fucking cool, the original groupie who also happened to win the heart of Mick Jagger!

So all you budding groupies out there grab a leather biker jacket or an afghan coat, some platform shoes, sunglasses, and remember these are a MUST! Take hold of your heart Rock stars and groupies = heartbreak, but hey think of all the fun you will have, you can smoke legal and illegal cigarettes in places where a smoking ban has been in place for years, and you can wear a blanket instead of a coat and no one will judge you because your group is so fucking cool.

Go make your future, Groupie...
