Loose lips sink ships

Happy Tuesday! 

I've been on a Fall Out Boy and Paramore music fest, hence the F.O.B lyrics as a title, I forgot how good they were! Anyway whilst buying some pj's in Primark yesterday I stumbled across a gorgeous midi skirt. Now I'm not great with midi's as I'm only 5'2'' tall, so I feel that they can sometimes swamp me a little bit, however this one from Primark seems to fit quite nicely. 

It cost £8 which is pretty reasonable, I love the acid wash tie dye effect with the electric blue - gorgeous. I'm really surprised with Primark at the moment, I've managed to find quite a few good pieces in the last few weeks, so well done Primark. - Haul video coming soon, hopefully, once my mac stops being a pain!

I also bought some dotted tights - at long last! I've wanted them for ages and haven't been able to find any, anywhere - until now! They were £2.50 which isn't too bad, but I think I'm gonna have to buy a few pairs, seeing as they will most probably ladder. 

I wore the outfit with my Topshop boots - which is pretty standard for me at the moment. I think I will always have to wear this skirt with some sort of heel, otherwise I will look tiny and even more weirdly proportioned.

I also wore my trusty Primark gold necklace, which I bought years ago and is still looking great. I have decided to stick to a few bits of jewellery instead of buying loads of different pieces, I'm going to go for more statement pieces. It will hopefully save me money in the long run! 

You may also have seen that I've had my hair cut! Yay. I got it done in Rush Southampton, a hairdressers that I have only been to twice, but it is the best place I've ever had my hair cut. I wasn't sure on what I wanted, so my hairdresser; Katie, said to keep the length (just take off what was needed) and maybe cut in a side fringe. I am so chuffed with it, she even curled it for me and told me where to buy velcro rollers so I can achieve this look myself! I highly recommend Rush salons, they are so professional and friendly (and they offer 25% off for students, and if you're not a student they're different deals)

Outfit Post #3

Another long time since my last outfit post, but i thought I'd introduce you all to my new bowler hat! My sister bought it from Topshop, but she decided she didn't want it. Lucky me, seeing as I've been trying to find one for ages that does cost £20+. So it was free!

Today I wore my alphabet shirt, from Primark £12, which I love, as the baggy fit looks nice tucked into my skirt, which is also from Primark for a measly £6. I threw my really old grey Topshop blazer on top as it was chilly today, and then also wore my River Island coat! I wore some New Look tights, and River Island boots, with silver studs (£65). Then I was ready to roll. 

I went into uni for a few hours for a visual merchandising lecture/seminar and back home to do uni work all evening! 

I've decided I want some dotty tights, I think they're really cute. Has anyone seen any cheap ones in Primark or anywhere?

Ever yours, Ever ours

This is my outfit today, I'm wearing a brand new shirt, my boyfriend bought me from EverOurs, which is a really cute online shop, I love it. I stumbled across it a few months ago, and I just can't help myself with loving almost everything they sell. It helps that everything is really reasonably priced, and then they lower prices again in their sales! 

I'm wearing my Jamie ankle grazer jeans from Topshop which are dark burgundy, I love these jeans they go with practically everything I own, and they are so comfy; more like a jegging but they are still as thick as usual jeans. Amazing!

Along with these I'm wearing my Topshop boots I bought ages ago, and I've worn them to death. Would love another pair when these finally go. 

As I've already said I'm wearing a shirt from EverOurs, it is gorgeous with skulls all over it, just my cup of tea! I thought I'd take a few close ups to show you these as they are difficult to see in the photo above. 

I couldn't believe when this went into sale, I'd wanted it for so long and was going to buy it when it was full price so when it went to sale I was so excited. However my bank balance did not agree, (even though it was only £10 with £2.50 postage) so because my boyfriend is such a babe, he bought it for me. 

I'm off out in a bit, to an ice cream parlour - I know it's cold but come on...ice cream. 

Hope you all have a brilliant day, whatever you're doing.

Smart casual?

Yesterday was a busy sort of day, Uni in the morning for my new favourite lesson; fashion styling. It was the first seminar for it and I can't wait to get started! Our first assignment is to restyle a friend, a kind of personal shopping task, which should be fun. 

After that uni was over for the week, so we went into town, where I bought THE BEST top, and a gorgeous brand new coat but I'll tell you about that later. When I got home I had a few bits and pieces to sort out, as well as taking these outfit photos, before I changed because it was colder than I thought it would be! 

This was my outfit for the day time yesterday, I wore my purple/burgundy tank top on that was £3.99 in New Look, along with my New Look maxi skirt and my really old cardigan from the same shop...

This is awkward I just realised 90% of my outfit was from one shop. 

I also wore my necklace from Mint Velvet, I love this necklace it makes any outfit stand out straight away. To contrast this I wore my black authentic vans to give a more casual look, also because I had to throw a lot of my flats out, due to over wear! 

I had bought some shoes yesterday from River Island, however after wearing them last night I realised they were too small for me. As they cut up my ankles, so back to River Island to find the right size soon, in the meantime I'll be sticking to my good old Vans!
