POST 4/4
finally, some of my favs from london fashion week. i much prefer neutral colour palletes and blacks to bold harsh neon colour. where were your favourite shows/pieces?

my little space

lovely jessica of bambina asked me in my last post to take a few quick pictures of my new university room! so, since i was looking for a way to procrastinate, i jumped for my camera quick! so i've just taken these for you! so above is my little desk area, next to my tiny wardrobe! i love clutter can you tell?

above and below is my very... erm crammed wardrobe. im not used to so little wardrobe space and i'm gutted i had to leave so much at home! i might invest in a clothes rail to just have out standing in my room, trouble is finding where to actually put it!

below is the other side of my room, more clothes.. coats this time and my full length mirror on the back of my door. just underneath the photos on the wall is a small pile of vogues, my parents are sending my collection down in the post 3 issues at a time.. hopefully when they begin to pile up high enough i can stand my lamp on it and have a bedside table made of magazines!


hopefully i'll find a lot more frames to fill this little bit of wall with pictures. i've hunted most of these frames out in charity shops and jumble sales in the last two weeks in epsom, oh! there's my little key hook too.

finally here's my window sill and little storage unit at the bottom of my bed. i had all my necklaces hung up on hooks under my shelves at home, so i had to buy little key hooks form wickes to recreate it.. there's nothing worse than tangled necklaces!

so yep, there's my room for you! haha x

jaquard

jacket: topshop, top: charity shop, levi shorts: market, lace shorts: ebay, bag: miss selfridge.

i apologise for the shockingly bad photographs in this outfit post today, i just want to show you my new shirt. i'm not really happy with the pictures, but i couldn't be bothered to get out my slr, so webcam it is. i got the top from a charity shop in the middle of epsom for about £3? i love the colour and the damask, jaquard-y pattern on it.

here's a close up of the back of my levi's i now have two pairs of black levi's. i bought these last week as a pair of levi jeans, then i cut them up into shorts in about 3 minutes. my other pair were bought for my birthday by my friend, i've almost lost enough weight to fit into them now wahooo hahaha - i'm determined because they're so nice and they're the stonewashed back denim which i love. these ones are for in the mean time.


the nails are just your average glue on falsies, but pre-painted in this lovely metallic burgundy colour. my nails are terrible at the minute so these was a fast and easy disguise, which i bought from savers for about a pound!

p.s - just looked at this post again, and i'm currently loling at some of the crazy angles and poses here, just trying to show off the clothes!! ahahah

p.p.s - currently reading and learning lots about fashion from PURDYMAID (worth a read)

metallic heels

i'm absolutely in love with these two new topshop boots, named absinthe and audio. especally the first pair. i saw them the other day whilst in topshop. i was so tempted to get them.. my student loan went in on that exact day! what do you think? the angular platform the metallic heels, they are just perfect. i couldn't resist sharing them with you all!

so tempted to splash eighty pounds on these beauties.

raspberry crush

totally obsessed with burgundy, raspberry and deep reds lately. and if you've read through a few of my latest wishlist posts.. you'll know how much i've pined after these berry red topshop jeans! finally good topshop in strand had a pair in longer leg lenth that fit me! wahooo.

me and the girls went a little topshop crazy and bought a few things each....
these shoes are another item i've wanted for so long!!!! after missing out on those zara beauties i'm so glad topshop brought this reasonably priced pair out. only thing is, they're a little on the snug side but the next size up was enormous! anyone know if they give a bit? if any of you have them?

rimmel lasting finish lipstick from left - right: 128 starry-eyed, 170 alarm and 014 sweetie.
these rimmel lipsticks are currently on 3 for 2 in boots, they're lovely so i suggest you all go grab the offer while it's there. me and lauren clubbed together and bought these burgundy, bright red and bold pink shades.

finally, bought this cuteeee little burgundy (surprise!!) leopard print travel card holder. perfect for my train tickets and railcards, also topshop.

LFW 03: STREET STYLE

i snapped model tilda lindstam (img models) leaving the john rocha show.. in the most amazing outfit ever.

POST 3/4
i took this picture of an off duty john rocha model heading out of somerset house as she stopped for a few photographers, i'm sorry but this has to be the most beautiful off duty model outfit i've ever seen. that jacket... oh my god i need to make one or something. perfect.

i also took a few street style pictures, this girl, i didn't get her name - had the perfect shirt/jumper/jeans combo going on. i need bottle green jeans in my life now, that's a definite!


lauren and i started chatting to jessica from sparksandfireworks and i snapped a few pictures of her! the topshop body chain combined with the galaxy print worked amazingly well, i love the use of accessories too. she was lovely!

here's a few photographs i took whilst me and lauren sat people watching and outfit watching for ages, and we actually had so much fun! i was fascinated with all the beautiful and diverse footwear that sometimes stumbled across the cobbled floor in front of us, so i just had to take a million pictures! warning: photobomb ahead...
