Dedication.


HELLO! Apologies for my extended absence, i have been visiting a friend in Copenhagen - lovely city + everyone is beautiful...so you should all go! But yeh, I am posting this to say that I am sorry I don't have as much blog dedication as this lovely lady does look dedication (from Stockholm Streetstyle). Hope you've all had a nice couple of weeks and there'll be a proper post tomorrow.

Sunshine and Flowers and Neon



Jacket: MuuBaa, Dress: ASOS, Belt: Topshop from eBay, Boots: H&M and Bracelet: eBay

Hello, sorry I have had a busy week going to see friends and going to Lovebox festival - I'll put up some outfit shots later! Today I am wearing this neon lace dress, as you know I am more than a little obsessed with lace, but I never thought I'd really end up wearing the neon dress (with the exception of the Christopher Kane for Topshop dress I bought off eBay for a tenner last year, which I wear when I'm feeling brave!) - yet here we are. I really like this dress, it's a really easy length to wear, I actually altered the slip underneath, so that the colours in the lace really come through...better? Anyway, I'm off to Copenhagen tomorrow, so got lot's to do!

Folky Feeling


Dress: Vintage, Jacket: MuuBaa, Shoes: ASOS from eBay, Earrings: Primark and Watch: Rotary

Hello! I'm off out for lunch with my Granny today and chose this vintage dress that I've had since I was seventeen but haven't worn for ages, this is why I hoard things and find it hard to chuck stuff out because as we all know everything comes back round! I like the sheer panels/peekaboo trend but I'm not really a 'body-con dress with sheer panels' kinda gal, so here is my vintage inspired nod to the trend...

Purple Rain


Jacket: MuuBaa, Shirt: Vintage and Jeans: Zara (old)

Off to Bristol for a couple of days to see friends and have wrapped up a bit due to the not-so-summery weather! Hope everyone has a nice couple of days and I'll be back on wednesday.

There she goes with flowers in her hair


Skirt, Top & Belt: Vintage and Watch: Rotary

Relaxed day at home yesterday, relaxed vintage outfit - but I wanted to give it a bit of an edge so I added this purple nail varnish (a new fave). Anyhow, lets talk about vintage underwear - that is what this top is, and I've had it for years and I lovvvveeee it, I can wear it with everything and it's the perfect mix of sexy and sweet, don't you think? I have had to stop myself from buying loads of similar camisoles and dresses, but if I find an amazing piece I know I'll buy it regardless...I'm a little proud of myself it hasn't got out of hand like my shirt obsession which numbers at least twenty something now!

Last niiiigghhhtt she said...



Top: Monki, Skirt: Vintage, Jewellery: eBay and Shoes: Zara

Can you tell I LOVE these shoes, love, love, love them! I spied them on a few blogs and thought they had sold out, but I got my greedy little mits on them as a 'finishing Uni' present to myself! I am scared of ruining them though, they're so elegant and grown up - something I'm aiming for! Hope everyone had an equally enjoyable saturday night dancing around with friends.

Can I be a grungey nineties teen?






Jacket: MuuBaa, Dress: Charity shop, Backpack: Urban Outfitters, Boots & Jewellery: eBay and Nail Varnish: Topshop.

Hello! How is everyone? I'm back in the land of the south and amazed by how green the countryside is, and how loud all the birds are - very different to the alarms and drunken calls and brawls of students in Leeds! To be honest it hasn't really hit me that I have L-E-F-T U-N-I-V-E-R-S-I-T-Y...I keep saying it to myself, as do others but it refuses to sink in! I'll let you know when it does, anyhow this is what I wore yesterday, I had lunch with some friends and then went to Oxford for some dinner, drinks and dancing - I'll upload those pictures in a bit. So I have basically been avoiding unpacking, I'll upload that picture too and you'll understand why - I think I may need to downsize my wardrobe (which ultimately will just mean money for more clothes...eeek).

Did you finish Uni and go to a ball?

Dress: ASOS Revive

This is a picture of me before the ball with my friend Anna (she is wearing a french connection dress if you're wondering!), I finally wore this ASOS dress which I got as a christmas present, soooo nice and sparkly, and a nod to the underwater trend don't you think? I kept accessories simple with a gold box clutch and gold lace up sandals (River Island from eBay) with blue nails and smokey blue eyes fading into gold at the center. Ahhhhh I love dressing up!

Bag: Vintage and Dress: few years old - I can't remember!

Hello, hello! Here are some snaps from the last couple of days: drinks, lunches, and dinners - a busy social end to University, I leave tomorrow...it's a really strange feeling, and to be honest I don't think it's really sunk in. But I can no longer avoid packing all of the clothes in my teeny-tiny room!
