Service is resumed...



Skirt - Topshop; Top - H&M; Shoes - Urban Outfitters; Necklace - Cheap Frills; Bracelets - New Look, H&M and Idollina

Finally I can get back to my blogging. After a stressful start to the year, January exams are over and I can go back to lectures! I practically live in the library through exam time and I haven't been anywhere but university campus or my house of late, so I'm really looking forward to going into town this week for a change of scene, and I need to catch up on what's in the shops and things like that!

I bought this little Topshop skirt off eBay. I've been looking for a camel coloured skirt for a while to dress down with black tights or wear bare legged on a night out, and I managed to get this one for about £6 which is a bargain. I like the leather belt detail with the little bow, means I can just throw it on and not think about wearing a belt because it's already there for me (sounds a little lazy, I know, oops). The necklace I'm wearing is the Prince Puss necklace I featured in my last wishlist, I couldn't resist. Though technically I've bought it as a birthday present, I couldn't help but try it on, and it..sort of...wouldn't come undone..so it had to stay there, haha I joke, but any excuse eh ;)

So glad the snow has finally gone and I can stop wearing wellies! Wooo! These shoes are by Deena & Ozzy, I bought mine from Urban Outfitters in the summer. They're just a plain suede ballet pump with a studded gold heel, and I thought they just made a change from completely flat shoes and look a little more dressy :)

Also very excited because I'm - hopefully - buying a new camera soon. Hopefully my picture quality will be a bit better in posts in the future :) *yaaay*

Tribal Trousers





Trousers - H&M; Top - H&M; Shoes - Deena & Ozzy at Urban Outfitters

Ok, so first off I really want to apologise for the quality of my pictures. Sadly, student houses are not known for their blank canvases, pretty wallpaper or good natural lighting, and this is pretty obvious in my pictures at the moment! Also I can't seem to keep my room tidy, but that's normal for a 21yr old student, right?!

Anyway, aside from that (and I really am sorry!!), I've been wanting to review these trousers for a while! I bought them in Scunthorpe H&M before I came back to university for...wait for it...£9.99! I know! So cheap, and they aren't poor quality either! I have to roll mine up a little because my titch 26-27" length legs mean it's kinda difficult for me to get trousers and jeans that fit without that horrible ruching that shouldn't be there, but I'm gonna have to live with it so at least rolling things up is a possibility! You probably all realise by now that I don't wear a lot of jewellery, and I think it'd be wrong to with this outfit, might make it look too much, I am actually wearing a large turquoise stone ring but in a simple oval design just for a bit of colour...and I didn't realise I was hiding it on the picture -.-! Oooops!

It's so nice to be able to BLOG AGAIN! I hope you all bear with me, I'll have lots more posts coming soon. Promise! :)

Tweed & Sparkle


Top - Zara; Jacket - Topshop; Shoes - Primark

Went out for dinner tonight but didn't want to be too dressed up, so I went with my trusty black jeans and this Zara top that I bought in Spain. It's a boucle tweed sort of material, with a black embroidered chain detail around the neck and on the pockets, and a sheer section of material at the bottom. I believe it is sold out online, but is available in the UK in stores I'm sure :) I don't normally wear all black and grey so felt a bit mawky tonight (I think that's a Lincolnshire word sorry!), what I mean is I felt a bit dark and grungy which is definitely not my usual sort of style! I do like just wearing basic colours every now and again though, but a bit more at home in a nice print! Also wearing my lovely new Primark slippers, they're studded all over with little spikes and only cost £12, which may be a bit more pricey for Primark, but there is so much detail in them for such a cheap price!

Weekly Want No. 1


Done a little post one some things I have my eye on/have bought this week! I'll try and do these as often as possible, as much as I know I'll never afford everything I write about (sob!). I've added clickable links on all the items that have online shopping links!

1. Blazer with button detail - Never Fully Dressed. LOVE this blazer, the detail on the back is so cute and it's nicely oversized which is a must in a blazer in my opinion! They do a version in magenta with buttons down one side of the front too which I also reeeeally like!

2. Clutch bag - Dorothy Perkins. Unfortunately I can't find this on the website! The image appeared in the DP email newsletter I was sent this morning and straightaway I went on the site to find it but can't! I hope it comes in to stock soon because I think the pattern is so pretty. I know it won't go with many colours apart from neutrals but I reeeeally want one!

3. Studded Pumps by Deena & Ozzy - Urban Outfitters. I caved and ordered these last night after I asked my mum's opinion, and she liked them too! I'm bored of wearing flat shoes in the daytime everyday so I'm going to try these out, think they may look a little more elegant than my usual flatties on my short legs!

4. Studded Jumper - Missguided. I saw this style of jumper in Topshop at first but then discovered on Missguided that they had some very similar a bit cheaper. I like a nice snuggly jumper in the winter at uni when we can't afford to have our heating on all the time and the studs on the shoulders make it a bit more interesting.
