dressing a whole lot like a certain dopey boybander these days, ngl. i'm feelin' okay about it, though, so.

hopefully i'll have more outfits to share with you soon- i haven't been too good with taking pictures recently, though. that plus the lighting being so awful during this time of year doesn't make for a productive combination in the slightest, i'm afraid.

see you soon!

Well, I heard you're makin' movies, and I also heard what kind.

I don't think I'm going to apologise for the lack of posting, because I'm not sure that any of you are reading, but that's okay: I haven't wanted to post here in a long time. I'd wanted to want to post here, but the motivation just wasn't there, and I didn't feel like forcing myself. Now, finally, I feel like it might be okay for me to post something up again.

I also feel like I need to say that I don't know what's going on with this blog. I'm not sure what kind of blog it is (going to be) and I'm really not sure how to categorize it at all. I half want to post illustrations or just things I make here (not that I've been doing anything creative recently) and half want to fill it up with inane selfies just because that's all that's in my pictures folder these days (aside from GIFs from my favourite TV shows, but that's for a whole 'nother blog.)

So I have some photos for you instead. Sort of. They're old, and new, and somewhere in between. They're of nothing and still something. They're not what you want to see, I can guarantee that, but they're just what I have right now, and they're what I want to post.

had my second nose piercing re-done, plus got my ear pierced one more time: it's the second one down. #metalface, I know.

turtleneck crop top: asos

the world's biggest bag of yum marshmallows: it's a week and a half later, and there's still a third left.

 

I really miss my old room. lots.

on my nails: 'cobalt' by Barry M
(false nails: eBay)

satin slip + shorts: thrifted

satin slip + lace shirt: thrifted
black skinnies: Primark

denim jacket: thrifted (originally from River Island)

Going away again, now. Hopefully I'll be back soon. Till then, take care of yourself, cuties. xo

Well, I heard you're makin' movies, and I also heard what kind.

Twelve and photoheavy.

I haven't been out much lately, and whenever I have I've been too busy/unable/forgotten to take photos of what I've been wearing- not that it's been anything terribly fancy anyway. But last night I took pupsicle #1 for a walk, and dug out my vintage 550's just to have something easy to chuck on. Bad move on my part, since I discovered how not warm denim is upon leaving the house, and how not warm the weather was outside. They did make for the perfect lounging-around-in bottoms, though- despite the fact that they couldn't be further from stretchy. Anyway, I threw on a couple of different layers with them, and when I got back I got snap happy with my webcam. (I would use my proper camera, but it's a pain to edit such large files- plus, it ain't as though the lighting's anything special either!) Anyway, enough with my rambling, and on to the photos- all the details of where things are from will be at the bottom of this post, as per usual.

Camouflage tank top, sweatshirt, Levi's = thrifted
Ankh + yin/yang necklaces, nose hoops, black crop top = eBay
Embellished crop top = DIY/boutique
Faux fur vest = gifted (originally from Dorothy Perkins)
Leather jacket = Next
On my lips = Wet 'N' Wild's "Cherry Bomb"

Twelve and photoheavy.

I can go places nobody else goes.

Hi cuties! It was really hot when I took these photographs (maybe a week and a half ago?) and so I wore just a crop top with a little skirt, and my new shoes from eBay. It's funny because it was boiling that day and I couldn't even stand to go outside to take pictures, but tonight, when I'm writing this, the temperature's down to about 6°- freak weather!

Anyway, hope you enjoy these- and the GIF too. I've had an awful lot of spare time recently.

Crop top - New Look
Skirt - thrifted + DIY
Shoes - eBay

Till next time!

glow in the dark arrow in the heart

Polka dot crop top = DIY
High-waisted yellow slouchy trousers = thrifted
Choker = gifted (but from Dorothy Perkins! + DIY'd)
On my lips = Rimmel London's "Exaggerate" lipliner in #064 "Obsession" + Revlon's  #015 "Grape"
Heels = thrifted

Just a quick one today, darlings. I made this crop top from an old dress that I didn't really wear any more (and another, but maybe that'll feature here some other time!) so all in all, I'd reckon it's a pretty good deal. I just went for it and hacked off the bottom haphazardly since I wasn't exactly going to wear the dress as it was anyway. I think it worked out okay! And way better than paying some £30 odd quid for Topshop/AA crop tops, right? That's what I thought. Until next time, babies.

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

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!
