The Paisley Shirt

WELL heres the paisley shirt i've been telling you about... its crazy, In fact it could be up there with my favourite garments. I thought I looked very camouflaged in this outfit with the wintery browns and greens, I used to wear browns (tan) quite a lot and I don't know why that phase faded :( because these colours are perfect for this cold season.

This week I invested in a tripod instead of dragging my poor mother around the countryside with me. 

My Luis Vuitton bag was actually another lucky charity shop find. It is so handy and spacious. My tan leather skater skirt is also from a charity shop its originally from Oasis, the funny thing is I had my eye on this skirt for a while. My belt is Moschino so it was a little pricey so I had to save for months and months for it! but it is an amazing belt. which goes with every outfit ever put together!!

GREAT finds


This weekend I went vintage shopping it was amazing! it's like a whole new world in those vintage fairs oversized fur coats, trilbys and my favourite thing of all time paisley shirts!! and yes I did purchase one and yes it will appear in a blog post very shortly, anyway.

I was soooo desperate for this leopard print skirt from TopShop it was proberly the best day ever when it came back in stock on boxing day! I wanted this skirt for a while then I saw Alexa in it at the fashion week that just made me want it even more.

9 to 5!

This outfit is formal but casual.. I like it! I don't really know where I got the inspiration for this from :) I wore it for a Manchester shopping trip it was super comfy and so easy to change when trying on outfits. You all know rolly necks are my favourites! I have a wardrobe full.

So in Manchester I didn't actually buy any clothes, I purchased some fresh make up instead. Benefit definitely has to be my favourite at the moment, I mean there hoola bronzer has to be a must for me! for people with chubby faces like me, this is the product for you to give you those cheek bones you dream of. I'll show you all the outcome in my next blog post tomorrow.

ON NYE


Well since I aren't the one for bling and sparkles I thought on New Years Eve I'd go quite plain but different. These trousers are an absolute favourite of mine my style inspiration for these were Miles Kane.. yup! he wore them on tour last year and they just stood out and looked cool. So I thought I'd purchase a pair. The lovely little clutch bag I have is from a little boutique in Whitby called Unique, I always go there on my lunch breaks almost everyday it's the canniest of places. 

Well yesterday I sent off my UCAS form how exciting and i'm kind of nervous I mean if I get this place it'd be my dream so many new doors would open for me. It'd be amazing I was born to be a city girl working in the fashion world... I just know it!

Who Doesn't love Dungarees seriously?!

Hi, sorry I haven't blogged in a while i've been quite busy sorting out college stuff (ZZzzz) anyway hows everyone's Christmas/ New years been? mine was great... I ate so much, drank too much bucks fizz at times, had a great time with my family and playing the odd competitive game of charades! well this year is a big year for me as i'll be moving down to London hopefully (I know I better start saving...again!) eeek I'll be doing fashion management level 2. will any of you be attending the fashion week in February that another thing i'm super excited for! 

Has it just happened to me or you guys too? the January sales have made everyone poor. Especially Topshop! man those sales were bloooming amazing. I got my wages on Christmas Eve and on Boxing I had nothing left.. seriously it was madness!! 

Anyway who doesn't love dungarees? They're literally the best things ever 1) you can literally match them with anything! 2) They're super comfy 3) EVERYONE suits them! these dungarees what I am wearing are a gem from the topshop sale £40 down to £20 Excellent, my heels are from Debenhams they're super comfy and super gorgeous, my blouse is a little ASOS treat ;) heres a new one for you I had never been in select before until the other day because of all the bad comments about it saying it was tacky etc.. well you guys were wrong the had I am wearing is from there and it was a bargain at £8 so if you want minor accessories and shoes etc I highly recommend it.
