I've been trying not to notice.

Gkjhdfglskjga! It's been far, far too long for me to come back and say "oh, oops, sorry!" and well, for that, I'm sorry. Really. I have exams coming up soon (like, really soon) and things have been a bit crazy recently. I've been taking photographs as and when I've been able to/have had enough energy to, but been either too lazy or too unmotivated or too busy to actually make posts with them. So instead, I figured I'd post a couple of my outfits (and some photographs I took for fun, of course!) that I've been wearing over the past month that just didn't make it onto this blog.

Everything thrifted

Black lace shirt = vintage
Black bodycon skirt = Internacionale
Watch = Nike

Left:
Jumper, shorts = thrifted
Watch = Chopard
Rings = India, stepdad's
Right:

Black disco pant dupes = India

Blouse = TK Maxx
Skirt = vintage + DIY
Necklace = Accessorize
Watch = Tissoni
Ring = H&M

Coat = thrifted
Jumper = Primark (I think!)
Dress (worn as tunic, just about visible) = H&M

Phew! There you are, then, beauties. All done. Lots of outfits, but still not nearly enough considering how long it's been since I've updated this ruddy thing.

I have a proper outfit post coming up in the next couple of days, although I can't promise to be very regular right now what with all the revision stress currently ongoing.

See you soon, cuties!

I've been trying not to notice.

Sun sun sun.

Hey babies. Just a whole bunch of photographs for you today. I like the way these turned out, even though I'm extremely self conscious of my body. They're a-okay.

I've had this dress for nearly a year now, and this is the first time I've worn it out... I only just took the tags off this last night! It's been sunny and pretty warm here (twenty degrees today!) and so I figured I'd wear it finally to college. It has a bothersome lack of back coverage, and I'm unfortunately unable to go totally backless, so I figured a simple black bandeau top (Primark!) would do the trick. I think it was alright, really.

Anyway, sorry about the annoying formatting between portrait and landscape photographs... I'm still working on figuring out little details like that. On to the photos!

 

Lace shirt = vintage || maxi dress = Eyelight boutique || wedge slippers = Nike || backpack = eBay (originally Dorothy Perkins) || watch = Tissot || rings = vintage, eBay, H&M, Dorothy Perkins, various assortment || mixed metals necklace = New Look || insect necklace = gifted || long wrapped green necklace = gifted (originally Dorothy Perkins) || Ethiopian opal necklace = 18th birthday present from my parents || on my lips = Revlon's "Wine Not" || on my nails = Collection 2000's "Fire Engine" + Beauty UK's matte top coat

Sun sun sun.

Hot like Mexico.

Aloha, cuties. It's been the warmest day of the year so far, with the temperature hitting a high of about seventeen or eighteen degrees this afternoon on the south coast. So, in true British fashion, I did what everyone else in the country does on a hot day- go all summery and wear bright colours and minimal clothing. Only I'm not too comfortable with entirely minimal clothing, so here's my take on dressing for the summer.

Shirt, crop top = thrifted
Shorts = DIY thrifted
Backpack = eBay (originally Dorothy Perkins)
Tights = Primark
Chelsea Boots = eBay
Statement silver collar necklace = Primark
Other necklaces = Topman, from my parents on my 18th

Now I'm just sitting in my conservatory and attempting to de-stress. All your lovely posts are helping with that.

See you soon, babies!

I've ordered these babies here and here from New Look with gift cards I got for my birthday a couple weeks ago- so excited for them to turn up.

Also ordered this darling of a cropped vest.  I'm not usually massively into crop tops as a general rule because I don't think they're very flattering on my body, but this one's so dainty and feminine that I couldn't resist- and for six pounds, it isn't a bad deal at all. I'm a sucker for a bargain!
I'm currently on the hunt for the perfect pair of high-waisted black skinny jeans, and so I think this little vest will go perfectly with those in the summer, with my trusty leather jacket and stacks of silver jewellery thrown on. I'm also looking for the perfect pair of suede(tte) wedge sandals that aren't too high up so I can't walk comfortably in them on a day to day basis, and when I find them, I think they'll look perfect with this outfit. If you know of any that fit this description, please link me to wherever I can find them!

I'm sorry I haven't been posting much at all recently- I'm currently on half term, and true to habit I'm staying cooped up at home in pyjamas, mostly. How very fashion-forward, I know.
I'm possibly popping out tomorrow into town, though, to see a friend, so you might see an outfit post then! I need to get some bits from Boots and also visit H&M to use a gift card I got for my birthday- how inconvenient that H&M doesn't allow you to shop online with your gift card! New Look does, and they've got it absolutely right for lazy bums like me.

Anyway, I'm off now to peruse some more fashion blogs- link me to your favourites in the comments if you'd like. Or be cheeky and link me to yours too! I'd love to give it a read.

Goodnight, and see you all soon, lovelies!
