Just a quick post - I was sent this skirt from Threadsence as part of Chictopia's reward system, and after tweaking it from a size large to fit me, it's perfect. I adore the print, the pleats, and the lightness of it despite the dark colour. Thanks Chictopia and Threadsence!Skirt - Peppermint @ Thre…

Green MeGreen Me

I've decided, seeing as summer is so hectic, to do a Sunday Catch-Up only every second week. So instead, this is what I was wearing today. Rather than going for my usual denim shorts, I decided to semi-colour block and wear this teal pair instead. Welcome back sun, you were missed. Knit sweater - To…

When I get tired of the clothes I own, I tend to chop them up. These are the remains of a floral playsuit and fringed dress; now I have a two new tops, a new skirt, and new shorts. I'm especially excited about the fringed top, the bottom layer of fringe shows just the right amount of skin through it…

Exams are finally over. I wore this out last night to celebrate, but ended up going home early as I was just so tired. I must admit, I hadn't been this dressed up in a very, very long time, and didn't feel particularly comfortable in what I was wearing. I think the dress with flats and something mor…

Sunday Catch-UpSunday Catch-Up

I'm literally at breaking point now, my second last exam yesterday was disastro…

Picked up this gorgeous little (ok, oversized) vintage wax jacket from the post office today, after winning it on Ebay in the very last three seconds. I was searching for so long for a jacket that would be good in rain, and that I could bring to festivals during the summer, but parkas always looked …

Just a default day-off outfit, and of course, the quintessential fashion blogger top-knot, which is actually perfect for study. I've gone past the point of truly caring about these exams any more, it's almost 6pm and I've an exam tomorrow, but I still haven't started. They don't even count towards m…

I think the first thing I always look at in an outfit is shape, colour and texture always come later. Shapes like these, loose and boyish, are my current favourites, especially during exams when comfort is a necessity. And of course, I'm not laying off the neon just yet, even if it is just on my nai…

Sunday Catch-Up versus Sunday InspirationSunday Catch-Up versus Sunday Inspiration

(image via tumblr)So I can't decided whether I prefer doing Sunday Catch-Ups or Sunday Inspiration posts. I think, considering all of you are the reason my blog is still going, that my readers should decide (I still can't believe I've made it past 200 readers!)So would you prefer to see- A catch-up …

Rainy DaysRainy Days

We've started getting that awful weather, where it's raining heavily one moment, and incredibly sunny the next. I've just been packing a small arsenal of things with hoods, umbrellas and sunglasses in my bag each day. The bag-under-coat is directly inspired by Alexa Chung, for those of you that reco…

This post is to show you all my new hair more than anything else; it's a much more noticably contrasting ombre. I actually love the result so much. I'm also a sucker for anything with striped, especially a Breton stripe, and I enjoy looking like a little sailor. And yes, you can definitely see the m…
