Rockabilly Retro from City Chic!

City Chic have released a new pinup/rockabilly inspired line for Summer 2011 and its so cute!! You know how much I adore pinup as a style and I've found the most perfect casual outfit all from City Chic! Click on the images for a larger view.

Bow Print Cardi $69.95
Pearl Bow Necklace $39.95
High Waist 4 Button Jeans (Sold out online check in store) $89.95

These jeans are perfect, I had the last high waist style that was released but they were a size too big and I could only wear them for a few weeks sadly. So when these popped up online I did a happy dance! They suck everything in, hold you in nice and tight and elongate your legs. I have a slight obsession with anything high waisted so these had to be mine! The dark blue rinse is very flattering as well.

Its a basic little rockabilly casual look for me really I love either wearing this outfit with super high heels or little ballet flats.

The Bow Cardigan is a perfect fit, its for fitting around the bust when buttoned up but has lots of give. I'm wearing this in a XS and the jeans a 14. I've been wearing the cardie non stop all week with dresses and other sets of tops and jeans, its so easy to mix and match. The top underneath is a bodysuit i got from Jeans west last season, I find they work so much better with high waisted garments.

Then to top it off a adorable pearl bow necklace, what's rockabilly/pinup without pearls?

My next mission is to work the oh so cute bobby socks and pumps look they have bellow. I've adore socks with heels so I'm on the look out for the perfect outfit to match it.

So make sure you check out the new range they have so many cute vintage inspired pieces to suit a more curvy shape!

Also check out the behind the scenes clip for the new look book. It's fantastic and I wish I was on set for this shoot!
