Hello lovelies!

 

Just a quick one today as I am not having the best of days, or weeks for that matter! Having said that I am now sat in my boyfriend's bed, in my pj's, sipping a hot chocolate with whip-cream in my new Cath Kidston mug, so that has definitely cheered me up! Plus I had a lovely chat on the phone with one of my close friends giving me a confidence boost so that really helped, so I guess things are slightly looking up! Haha It's always the little things from your loved ones that make you feel better isn't it? :)

 

Anyway, today I wanted to wear a skirt as I feel like I haven't worn one in forever for some reason. I picked out this little burgundy number and paired it with my red and blue printed blouse and vintage red plait belt to tie it all in, whacked on my trusty chelsea boots and I was good to go! I have literally worn these boots 24/7 recently as they are just so, so comfy and make me that little bit taller ;) I think me and 3 of my friends at work all have these boots and cannot praise them enough, so if you're looking for a comfy but stylish pair of boots then head over to New Look on this link to get them. Plus they are only £27.99 which is really good for a decent pair of boots!

Ok so my 'quick one today' hasn't really been very quick at all.. Haha So I'll stop rambling now. I hope you're week has been better than mine so far! Oh and one more thing, thanks to all you lovely people I have now reached 303 followers on my blog! So thank you so, so much it really does mean a lot to me! I will be holding a giveaway by the end of the week so look out for that. And lastly, since you lot and everyone at home thinks I should get a fringe cut in I am going to bite the bullet and do it! Thanks for all your feedback :)

Evening all! This is what I am wearing today. I bought this lovely paisley print blouse from New Look yesterday, I couldn't resist! I seem to have a thing about blouses and just can't help but by them! But you can never have too many blouses, right? ;) I thought I'd add detail again with my DIY collar clips (will be seeling these soon on ebay) and I decided to pair the blouse with these beige coloured shorts which I bought in a vintage shop in Paris for 1 Euro! It's always nice wearing light colours on a dull, cold today like today, don't you think? :)

Afternoon lovelies! I have finally been able to post my outfit from Saturday! For some reason Blogger and Lookbook weren't working for me yesterday, but hey ho!

 

I decided to put two prints together on Saturday which I wouldn't usually do but I think it worked quite well mixing it up a bit! I also put on my collar clips that I made for a bit of detail. I will be selling these on Etsy and Ebay so I'll update you when I have managed to do that!

 

I have another outfit post coming up later of what I am wearing today which includes another printed blouse! I just can't help myself! Haha So look out for that! Have a good day everyone :)

Blouse:  Primark

Belt:  Vintage

Skirt:  DIY/Self Made

Tights:  New Look

Boots:  New Look

 

Good afternoon! How are we all today? I got this blouse on Tuesday and I couldn't believe it was from Primark! It looks like something from Topshop, River Island or New Look. I really love the polka dot material clashing with the studds on the collar. Today I have paired it with my burgundy skirt and belt and polka dot tights to match the blouse and lastly black boots as it is rather gloomy weather today. I literally just finished taking my photos when it started raining!

 

What do you guys think of the blouse? Is it something you would wear? I have another outfit planned with this blouse already so expect to see more of it! :)

 





136. One day..

Blouse:  New Look

Skirt:  DIY/Self Made

Shoes:  New Look

Hello! This is what I wore today, and yet again I managed to get some photos before the horrible rain came down! I made this skirt for myself last year but have only worn it once so it was good to dig it out and wear it again! The material is actually from an old pair of curtains I think! Haha! But I really like it and still have loads left so I may make something else from it too :)

Today I went to Winchester for lunch and a catch up with my lovely friend, Victoria (you can find her blog here). We went to the Tea Rooms for lunch and then popped to our favourite vintage shop Charming Magpies. I really love everything in there and the lady who works there is so lovely and always recognises me which is nice :) Unfortunately I didn't buy anything today but I am going back in a couple of weeks for a rumage again! They have a £5 rail at the moment which is a complete bargain for anything vintage! I almost bought a dress to turn into a skirt but I just wasn't sure about the bright colours. Oh and I almost bought a really garish but amazing jacket/blouse but I knew I had nothing to pair it with. Maybe if they're still there in a couple of weeks then it's meant to be ;) Anyway, check out their Facebook page here.

134. If only you could hear yourself

Jacket:  Charity Shop

Blouse:  New Look

Shorts:  DIY/Self Made

Shoes:  Primark

Hey beauties! So this is what I am actually wearing today. The heavy rain has finally hit the south of England, it has been tipping it down all day! So unfortunately the tights are back on :( As you can see it wasn't actually raining in the morning when I took the photos, hence the platforms and outdoor photo, it was just really breezy but shortly after taking these photos it started to rain and has yet to stop! I always find this jacket quite difficult to pair with things but I just love it so much! Haha! Hope you like it!

I'm off to see Snow White and The Huntsman tonight with my boyfriend! Has anyone seen it yet? It looks soo good!!

129. Peaceful Afternoon

Necklace:  New Look

Top:  New Look

Belt:  Meant for a bag strap but used as a belt!

Shorts:  DIY/Self Made

Bag:  Primark

Scarf:  New Look

Socks:  Topshop

Shoes:  Primark

Hello beauties! I thought a change of scenery was in need so today I got my boyfriend to take some photos of me in the local park whilst we were walking my dog. What do you think? Too much green? Or nice to have a change? I quite like it, but unfortunately most of the time I take the photos myself using a tripod and self-timer (ie. me running back and forth to take the photo!) and the only place in/out of my house that has a nice background is my wall.. Maybe I will venture out on my own one day to take some pictures, so long as no passer-bys see me!

Anyway, back to the look! I bought these lilac socks last week from Topshop and have been meaning to wear them so I guess I based the look around them by wearing my lilac shorts and having my purple scarf tied to my bag. I then just wacked on a plain black top, gold accessories and my brown platforms and bobs your uncle! Haha! I was a bit worried about mixing black and brown/tan together but who made that rule up anyway? I quite like it and I think the lilac breaks it up a bit anyway. What do you think about wearing black and brown together?
