Lazy Days

Hi everyone! 

I'm so sorry, I've been such a bad blogger. Life is just getting the best of me. I'm starting to think that I've made waaaayy too many commitments than I can handle; cello, singing ,dancing, school work, work work, blogging, youtube ect... You get the idea!

I decided to have a lazy morning because I had a dancing exam in the afternoon, so I just fancied lounging around in cosy jumpers and fluffy socks. I got these socks yesterday, and oh my frickin' god they are amazing. Being able to have 20% discount I'm going to get mountains of them. High socks and dresses are my new favourite things so look forward to seeing lots of these!

My lazy day= minimal makeup, no jewelery, no effort. Can you understand my thinking? Good!

Winter Wishlists

Hi everyone!

So today I have been ill, and what makes you feel better more than abit of online shopping! I'm gonna lie, I do this most days, but when feeling very sorry for myself reading a book (in this case the Great Gatsby) and browsing my favourite online shops for treats makes me feel SOOO much better!

1) So I've been looking for a great statement necklace for ages and ages, and today watching my usual youtube favourites, Arden Rose mentioned this gorgeous Zara one in her California haul. I searched it out straight away and a maaayy have to buy it. I think it would look great for christmas and new years parties!

2) My Topshop shopping is in full overload as I have just got a job there! (YAAAAYY- 65% OFF) The Topshop Boutique dresses are generally just amazing. There's this one I fancy, another one and my number 4 on here.

3) These Vagabond boots from Urban Outfitters are sooooo pretty! Though I've just bought a brown pair of boots from topshop... They didn't have HEALS though! Big difference you know!

4) Another Topshop Boutique dress, what more can I say? So on trend and would look great with a long sleeved top underneath! I want it!!!

5) Opi Bastille My Heart is generally just a gorgeous shade for winter, a must have I think!

6) I neeeed a watch for work, I couldn't decide between this beautiful retro Urban Outfitters one and a mini gold casio from ASOS! Both of my parents said that this was nicer so I may have to pick this bad boy!

7) Topshop Stardust and Amethyst nailvarnish, two beautiful wintery shades. NEED!

What are you eyeing up this winter?

Forbidden Forest

Hi everyone! 

After doing my daily blog search (I love finding new blogs) and I found so many beautiful ones today and saw that they all use a 50mm lens! So I thought this is poo, and went to my mum pleading for a 50mm. Anyways, she simply said that we've got one. Then I insisted that we go and try it out and these are the results. I've been feeling quite wintery recently so I thought that the forest right near my house would be really lovely, which it was (although we encountered a strange old man and it was super cold).

I've had this duffle coat since last Autumn and it's still going strong! I'd like a boyfriend coat and a buccle biker jacket (but those will have to wait)! I just went for an outfit that was simple and cosy, perfect for winter days!

What are you wearing this winter?

Tartan!

Hi everyone!

So, it is safe to say that I have completely and utterly fallen in love with tartan this Autumn. I generally just can't get enough of the use of different tones to create completely different pieces, but always using the same pattern! Now, some of these are dream items so don't think I'll be buying these! But I just wanted to show you different brand's interpretations of tartan!

1) Alexander McQueen Tartan Boots, these are WAYY out of my price range. But if I could have anything on this list it would be them. I spotted them in Vogue and juts knew that I needed to feature them in a blog post. I want them sooo bad!

2) Topshop Tartan Shorts, these are more like it (and they have a matching blazer too woo!) I just really like the style of these, great for everyday and a night out, fabulous!

3) River Island Tartan Trousers, I loveeee smart trousers! These will be mine, the colour combo, the style, they're just perfect!

4) Vivienne Westwood Tartan Pencil Skirt, again this is a tad out of my price range! But isn't it beautiful? I like how both red and green has been incorporated, it's different and I like that!

5) Topshop Tartan Leggings, I already have these and they're fab. Buy them!

6) Fred Perry Tartan Scarf, I'm just imagining wearing this on a lovely autumn morning and going out for a walk. I need a scarf and think this might be it!

Have you seen any tartan you like this Autumn?

London Baby!

Hi everyone!

So this is a little post on a day trips in London from this week, this Monday me and some friends got the train up to London to have a look around some art galleries. We went to the Tate Modern (which I didn't really enjoy, modern art is not my thing!!!), the V&A (I saw a gorgeous ballgowns exhibition, if you're in the South Kensington area go!) and finally the National Gallery (this was just amazing, I could spend days in there just staring at the Monets!). We also took a sneaky trip to the globe theater which was lovely!

I'll tell you now, I ate INCREDIBLY unhealthily. I had Starbucks, and Pret, and Nandos, and.... The Humming Bird Bakery! It's safe to say that this is my favourite bakery of all time and I visit everytime I'm down South. If you ever see that little pink hummingbird sign when in London, I'll be ashamed of you if you do not go! I bought this beautiful pumpkin whooppie pie that was the size of my head. It took me 3 attempts to finish it! Heaven though...

Now for the clothes!! Recently I have been living in my leather jacket, It's so cosy and just gorgeous for the winter! I bought this fur lapel on a whim, but I bloody love it! Highly recommend one for staying lovely and warm.
