glasses - primark/ dress - primark/ kimono - matalan

This is a dress I bought back in feb in ldn with Sian, we asked the man how much it was and he said it £5 but when we got to the kill it was £9. you win some you lose some; but this still feels like a win. I haven't really worn it until this week(sun). It is perfect with bare legs my only issue is a suitable top covering so this kimono jacket ha to do. all suggestions are welcome.

hat - next/ jacket - h&m/ cropped tee - topshop/ shorts - debs/ shoe - primark

New hat from next £10! Although I may be spending I'm still kinda keeping to my pledge. This is a new tee which somehow I managed to wangle(?!) from topshop sale. Which btw was an absolute farce. I got an email to my phone about the sale. So ofc headed straight in and managed to pick up a few nice bits; But I couldn't get online that night because my friend's internet was so crappy. So I raced home in the morning before work to get on. I had 3 things in my basket and as I preceded to checkout. Each item disappeared and in the end I had nothing. BALLBAGS!

Thank you to my lovely boyfriend for this pictures. It was sunny after work today. So we went for a walk down country lanes. I kinda live in the country...not too country; but country enough.

Excited to go to Birmingham this week though.

I dont think it appropriate to apologise for my absence just because it may and most definitely will happen again. whos wants to read apologies anyway? I've been working so mainly my outfits consist of black. Here is today. going to visit an art gallery.

If you follow my twitter. I pledged in the week that I wasn't going to spend more than £10 on one item of clothing ad so far so good. I got this awesome vintage laura ashley velvet flock jacket thing lack week for an almighty £2.50. And yesterday I spotted these bright blue creeper-esque shoes for £5.00 so naturally I had to. Review so far haven't been areeable but I love them! Im not wearing them today but no harm in showing you ?So with my new iniative whether to detail the price of my clothes... suggestions please.

Also I ordered some virgin indian hair from ebay... its on now. installed the whole thing myself took about 7 hours from weave in to weave out. Also little fact I have never had my air done in the by anyone other my mum/self bar one relaxer/chemical burn.

hat

h&m

This is what at currently gracing my head day in day out. it is pretty much perfect. Although back when I was in London me and Sian did have a discussing abut being brown and wearing brown things, because you can look like a chocolate stick. call it throwing caution to the wind

bra/top -h&m

neon pink under sheer/fishtail

I've been thinking about recently about fashion and style the difference between the two and how I can tell. I think its important to have your own sense of self when it comes to fashion, otherwise the high street will eat you up with the must haves; you'll become a yuppie of the blogging world. So when I got out shopping I have a clear goal in my mind. I know my style; I know what works what doesn't, what I want to look like. Best sellers don't matter to me.

At that topic I'm currently compling my s/s wardrobe, I'll give you a clue. There shall be no 70's/ditsy/nautical print of any vibe. We'll move on from there.

turban = ebay/ shirt - thrift/ shorts - h&m(new)/ ring - primark


Well I've got a couple days of work, which means I have tasks to do! which include but are not limited too; tidying my room, ebaying, returning clothes, painting nails, washing my hair, baking goods, doing my eyebrows amongst others. So you can tell I've got a [pretty busy week....lolz. No really I miss my friends they are all about travelling. However I am planning to go interrailing in the summer so watch this space.

I've had it up to hear with this crappy camera. For reference I am an nw45, i look so washed out and grey, why are my golden undertones?... ahah! lost out on an 1000d to by £5 on ebay this morning and as my twitter will demonstrate I had rage!

So amongst my jobs, I will be trying to blog alot more. I always read blogs but I barely ever comments, So ill will hopefully try to that a bit more. Link me to some new blogs...

round midnight

dress - topshop/ hat - (charlie's diy)

Hey, this is how I spent valentines day me and my friend charlie cooked for each other, he's off travelling in 2 weeks, it was super sweet actually. He made me some Indonesian noodle dish and I made him apple stresuel, which he text me about devouring this morning.

Also wear THE topshop dress, really should have got some better pictures of it. My boyfriend bought it for me for valentines day, and if I say bought it for me - what I really mean is, after finding out that it was sold out online, that as soon as I got to london, I went to Oxford Circus at .8.45pm demanded to know where it is was. I had the sweats. serious.


If you're wondering why I didn't spend the day with my boyfriend, whose name is Liam btw, it's because he's busy skiing all week :( skiing is such a middle class thing; but then again so is blogging?

i am a man with a heavy heart

fauxfur -oasis/ jeans - topshop/ tee - stolen



Though I'd keep this post short and sweet, and show you my new fur coat, there's 4 and counting, I don't care there summer is apparently coming, they are beautiful this one is from oasis and was an absolute steal at only £20. I know.

I've been think about adding a new dynamic to the blog. my videos, writing, but I want it to be good. Undecided as yet...

p.s someone tell me how to stop that blur

neither particularly appeals to me.

coat - thrift/ hat - river island/ shirt - thrift/ ring - h&m/ belt - vintage/ shorts - miss selfridge

Somewhat picture heavy today but at least the quality is much better than yestreday offering.

This is a new shirt it's 90's newlook and I kinda love it. If you follow this blog you will know that i am a massive fun of leopard print. As testament to this, my boyfriend says that whenever we are in a shop of walking and I spy anything leopard print, I find that it is only duty to go and inspect. What can I say ? I'm trashy. But I can help it. I picked it up in my favourite charity shop when I went to town on Monday, it was only £1.25 as they were having a 1/2 price sale. Now what charity shop do you know that has a sale? I pick up 3 other garments which will be sure to make their way on this blog soon.

Plus basically I'm wearing summer clothes but with tights; I'm pretty sure I've done this all winter; but I'm struggling to envision my perfect summer shoes, atm I'm imagining rope heeled espardrille from primark (£3) I wanted some last summer but they were all out of my size..

Last pic to prove I do step outside and smile its not just hearsay, bf's garden.

nothing to me about my life

shirt - h&m/ shorts - red herring/ rings - primark, h&m, new look
Tried a new style in my hair today; swedish inspiration, just a plait either side, then pinned to the other and some fringe left out. So simple; but I like it. I had planned to wear vintage earrings with my hair like this but they are breaking :( so i am on the scout for new ones. I really want some dream catcher earring with massive feathers; I can dream.

Sick of this shirt but i really don't have loads of tops! but i do have about a billion shorts and trousuers. These are new I got them on saturday along with a pair of paperbaggers; they were only £7.50 down from £25; I still havent filled my shorts void. I really want some with a scalloped trim.

I am actually wearing orange eyeshadow from the palette my boyfriend bought me at christmas. Now off to reconile my life

faceless

top 25p jumble sale/ coat - thrift/ clutch - primark

faceless/nameless
Actually bought this blouse 3 months ago at a jumble sale for 25p; I told you I was classy. Though I love the cut out detail on the neck line- it also have billowy bell sleeves; I own a lot of shirts so rather then repeatedly buying the same thing it's important for something to be different, no ?

I find a prefer masculine/ clean/ styling; I'm no Calvin Klein; but I think that reflects my personality. Something a little harder. Its important to have your own style doesn't mean you can't follow trends but at when point your alter ego with have to rest... If not I find people end up fashion victims. Its not about carbon copies. I mean there is no I would wear a peter pan collar. Honestly I will look like I'm playing dress up; it doesn't mean I don't like them it's mean they don't suit and me, and that is probably because they are not my style.

inspire me; how was your weekend?
I bought some new stuff


dress - topshop/ cluthes - primark/ notebook - tk maxx/ purse - primark


The dress is from topshop is real silk and cost me £15 down from £50; probably because no one was buying it! It got such a loose fluid shape that somehow look perfect tailored it hangs in all the place. I wore it out on Saturday night; at first I though belt. Then I thought FUCK DA WAISTBELTS. I admit it does look like a hard colour to wear but its the most insane insane neon pink; perfect.

kimono jacket - matalan/ joy division tee - ebay/ jeans topshop/ lace up wedges - h&m/ gold cuff - miss selfridge

Not a particular well coordinated outfit but I wore it for one my friends birthday drinks, the kimono is new and bought in the sales. I kinda love it; it wasn't something I wanted prior but I just spotted and at £8 was a major bargain.


RESOLUTIONS

For the majority of just I think resolution will be hot on our minds and I've been thinking about my for a couple of days;

- READ. READ WELL AND FAR. this year I want to read at least 30 books, which on average should take me 1 1/2 weeks each. and that something I shall hopefully be documenting on my blog. Books can be so entertain, frightening, thought provoking and I haven't had that in while. But I do look forward to eat.

- TAKE BETTER CARE. of my self over. IT may be digusting but this starts with showering more. I think I have a slight phobia of getting we. I think generally since I've had more time on my hands this has happened; but there is even more pampering to come.

- TRY HARDER. at blogging of course. I had a little downtime during christmas because I work(curse) in retail. and Presently I still do but that doesn't mean this blog shall suffer. At least I can promise you one thing i will never borrow content. this isn't tumblr. this is blogger. I will comment more. DEAR 34 FOLLOWERS I APPRECIATE YOU ALL!

- LEARN. to drive; I'll be honest I only remembered this one yesterday whilst my friend was driving me about. This should really do; it presents at challenge to me and gives me something to work towards; I don't want this year to just slip away from me. Just because I'm not going travelling.

- VISIT my friends! the real ones. I already have a trip planned to Manchester for feb. I still need to go to cornwall; brighton and brum. which i will!

- LOSE. weight and hate. I'm not particularly on the larger side I just want to be a tidier; you cant fault me for that. I should use that gym membership ma mere is paying for. starting next week... weight is such a sensitive issue no ? I don't want to be angry or hate; it waste so much energy which probably isn't even felt by the other side.


So here I am wish me luck.

all change please

fur coat - matalan/ silk vest - next/ jeans - topshop/ hat - river island

Bar the hat everything is new and cheap. The jeans only cost £15, silk £8 and coat £20. Somtimes being cheap is good, exhilirating even.

I barely ever wear jewellery mainly because i find it such a labourious task putting on and then taking it off again. especially metal - its so cold! lazy?

I've noticed alot of people on the blogosphere dont wear jeans, i say they dont like the way they look in them. yes, they may arse look big... but I'm firming a jean, trousuers and shorts girl. Why I dont know. I just find that there is something so much cleaner about them. Skirts and dress make me feel like a little girl. Dont get me wrong there are some beautiful creations around but I dont feel like being 9 again. In fact im unsure as to whether bar for a post where ive been going out I've even worn as a dress..

This is what happens when I dont use make up brushes..

louder/louder

jumper - tesco/ caro pants - next/ ring - new look


still having the most stressy time at work and it just makes me feel like there is something about me which isn't appealing. something inherent to my character or persona or whatever which means people don't want to get to know me. you cant win them all but sometimes its so frustrating there is an impossible algorithm of cliques; and my favourite person is leaving tomorrow. In conclusion; I hate next.

I'm not always this morbid, I promise.

In other new cargo pants from next and I've finally washed my hair..
I did go shopping yesterday with a friend back from uni; bought stuff wish im sure to show you in due course and now on to the next one

as i inhale the fumes

cape - topshop/ crop vest - topshop/ plait bodycon - gift from mum/ tusk necklace - avon(years ago)

Don't worry I am no aerosol sniffer; but i'm totally in love with katy b Hope every one had a good new years and doesn't hurt too much today. I had work at 12.30pm and I haven' eaten since 11; on the plus side the diet in going well...

Just debuting yesterday's look; I love the sheerness of my cape/kimono and also eye shadow from a palette I received for Christmas.

I have some things to show you..

i just want to dance

white tee - next/ cargo pants - next/ gold cuff - miss selfrigde


That's exactly feel, I just want to go out dancing, its so much fun, but I wont be for a long time :(. Missed my boyfriends Christmas party 2 weeks ago due to snow, and ordered a dress on asos which arrived yesterday, which means I have two unused dresses, gutted; but I will feature them soon. As well as some new additions to my room.

Above you see the fruits of the next sale, super baggy white; skinny cargo pants; don't call me boring I like it.

Hope everyone will have a fun night tomorrow.




Baby I just wanna dance; I don’t really care; I just wanna dance; I don’t really care… care… care
