'Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'. That's goddamn right!'

Please help me!!! 
Just a quick post today! I'm looking at buying a film camera. You may have read that i wanted one in my wish list i posted here.(Click!) So I've found two that i love! One comes in two different options. My main worry is getting the films, and getting them printed, and how much that all costs! If anyone knows of any good prices/places to get films developed and where you can buy films let me know! These are my three options (camera option one and two are the same, they just take different films.) Also if you have any other film camera that are within a small budget, let me know! Please note, i may not be buying the certain design, and i won't be spending this much, as i'll be ebaying them!


The main reason i have found these cameras and i love them is because they look so vintage and bright! So if you have any ideas, make sure they are similar! I know that 35mm films are cheaper to buy and develop, but do 120mm photos look better? I have no idea about these much! But i would love one for my trip to London this weekend so would need to make a hasty decision if i'm going to buy one and which one!

'To infinity and beyond'


It was one of them nights, where, yet again, I was bored on my lunch break. So in true 'Vintage Queen' fashion I went eBay shopping. My regular searches consist of 'shirt', 'Doc martens' and 'vintage.' On this particular day it was a 'vintage shirt' that I went hunting for, and boy did I find one! It was a floral, dusty pink, remade shirt. The pockets and collar tips had been covered in leather with studs on! I loved it! It was being sold by Doba_tribe_clothing. So a few days later when the item was ending on auction, I instructed my mum to bid on it for me - items are always ending when I'm at work, or on my way! I always have a limit on what I'll spend, and for this item it was £10 without postage. I had explained to my mum how much I LOVED this shirt and would be so gutted if I didn't win it. So, as per usual, I won. However, she had gone over my limit, by 11p, but I was ecstatic! 
So when my shirt arrived I have to say, I wasn't that impressed. The material wasn't what I expected, it was more cord material, I thought it'd be a thin, sheer shirt. I generally wear my shirts sleeves down, buttoned right up, well on this item, that doesn't look right. I have to say I haven't worn it out yet, and i'm not sure I'm going to. However, i haven't sold it on, because i still love it so much! So maybe one day, i'll wear it, and realise my love for it again! Saying that, I would buy from the seller again, they had described it perfectly, and if they made it, I am impressed by the quality! It makes me want to try and make something like this! If anybody has any ideas what i could wear this with, let me know! I'd love to wear it!
