Transitional Wear


 Grey Maxi Dress - H&m
Cardigan - Primark
Rucksack - Radley


Hiya everyone,
Back to the old style of posts, I keep finding new places around to shoot that don't involve me stepping outside!! This is a cosy number, long knitted layers. Perfect transition from winter to spring as it isn't too thick, but the long sleeve-ness is warm. Went hand in hand with my new-ish cardigan that turned out to be a pretty good investment, it goes with everything and I'm not bored of it yet so expect it in many more posts to come. This dress is basically a reaally long, long sleeved t-shirt, and it's not too tight which means you can sit down and eat in it without fear of looking pregnant and/or feeling uncomfortable. I bought this the other day online, and it arrived a few days ago. Due to clearing out my old stuff on ebay (elsmis2010 if you have a burning desire to buy it)  I have a few extra coins meaning I can online shop. Yay. When I bought this, I didn't think it through at all and well.. when it turned up I realised that I was a lot shorter than the model (duh) and that it is actually not a midi dress.. but more a maxi. Lucky I like it anyway because returning things online is an absolute nightmare. Recently returned my superstars because they were faulty and it has been the biggest headache, honestly I would rather trek to a store than go through that again. I seem to be going through a bit of a monochrome phase, so to lighten it up I added in a dark red lip liner, literally superdrugs own make but it's awesome and I'm pretty sure it cost me £1. 

Anyway, the ucas dread isn't over yet. *drastically rolls eyes* so this is where I shall leave this post.

Hey hey!!
I am finally back, and how I have missed you all. This month has been completely mad with uni bits, and I can't believe it's been nearly a month since I last had the chance to post. *sad face*
I'm feeling uploading posts of what I've been doing within Uni too, just because it's actually pretty cool and exciting for me. (I made my first garment the other week eek!!!) 

So, as you may have noticed, it is officially Autumn now, so aside from having a dress on that my mum would describe as a belt, I thought thigh boots and socks redeemed it. Shnuggly. Wearing multiple clothes, or what fashionista's call "layering" is the best for this weather. Not sure whether it is just me or what, but as I get the tube to uni, the difference in temperature between tube, outside and uni is disgusting. Without my trusty layering, I would probably pass out, like a menopause for the 19 year old, or something less disturbing.

Anyway, I am literally seeing thigh high boots everywhere at the moment?!! Maybe it's a Kylie Jenner inspo, but I hope not. But whatev, I semi-jumped onto that bandwagon. As I don't own any of my own, I found that my mum does.. which means I now do too. The joy's of having the same size feet! This dress is that classic velvet bodycon from AA, 3/4 years old, but it is perfect. I thought i'd make it more interesting by putting this sports bra thingy underneath, and layering with various textures, like knit, jersey and shiny stuff like the coat and shoes, because I'm wild like that. And what's the point of uploading a dress without alterations that everyone has seen a million times! 

If you have read previous posts, you will notice how I often mention that my hair reflects the weather in pictures. It is so orange here! I am like a walking Autumnal flower. That, with a mixture of the artistic light behind me, all I can say is I'm basically Katnis Everdeen (girl on fire.. obviously). On that note, I am SO excited for the new Hunger Games film to come out, which I think is this Thursday?! If you haven't seen them yet, watch them. They are awesome. Did I just google 'Katnis gif' for 10 minutes? Oh I might have done... you are welcome.

(me x)

Anyway, got distracted, but my personal statement awaits which really is a bundle of sunshine to write, so I'm off!! *cries* 


Goodbye lovely readers, 
I will really try to keep posts more often!
See ya on the flip side.
