Shoes - Superstars

Hiya all!

Welcome back to my blog, been a little absent recently but I thought I'd bring it all back with an extremely colourful post taken in the beautiful Barcelona!! Recently spent a week there and I have to say I completely fell in love with the place, from the Gothic Quarter to Park Guell. Everything about the city is incredible and I hope to live there one day. All photo's were taken by my extremely talented friend Dan (seen in pictures below). She's set up a photography instagram, her photographs are insane, will be well worth a follow. Search for @_luciaphotography to give her a look and a follow. All my links are at the end of each post so give each a follow too.

I love how when you go to other countries you can wear literally anything you want. The mixture of the hot weather and also removing the possibilities of running into everyone you know, makes dressing much more fun. So I thought I'd brave this (slightly) see-through little boobtube, at the time I was pretty unaware how see-through it was.. but hey! Free ya nips girls! This top was actually part of a dress that my friend cut in half, but I think it works pretty well like this. The tie-up-back is really pretty too, watch out for this style in every material I have now ha. Anyway, welcome to me tanned. Isn't it nice when the camera doesn't reflect off your skin and white out the photo? I believe so. I even wear white, how grown up is that?! 

So that's it from me for the moment, I have quite a few more posts coming up so keep an eye out!

Love to all who read, make sure you return and bring friends!

Peace and love people xo

If you haven't had a chance to hear it yet, go check out my girl Karmi's song with Perplexus. Download it, share etc it's on itunes too so you can buy it---

Hola,

Seeing as we're coming into the winter months, I thought I would do an inbetween-y outfit, one that is a perfect transitional from autumn to winter. Obviously I would this teamed with a massive coat and probably 5 pairs of tights, but for blog benefit I froze my butt off and went without. So the past two weeks have been pretty busy (hence the lack of posts) but now I have finished uni for the term and sent off my UCAS, so hopefully (fingers, toes, arms and legs crossed) I will get into one of my 5 choices!! If you have been wondering what I've been doing, simply click on this link - Fashion and Textiles blog to see, it is the analytical side of my course, so if you want to see pictures just check my instagram (link at the side of the page) The course has been pretty full on and I would be lying if I said I wasn't glad it's done for the term! If you are considering an art based degree, I really recommend doing some sort of art foundation first. It will 100% show you if it is the right course for you to continue onto at degree level!! So many people I know have dropped out after picking the wrong course, and honestly this foundation diploma has been one of the best things I've ever decided to do.

Anyway, life lesson over. If you have read my blog before you will probably have noticed I'm a bit of a fan of jewelry, and jewelry in particular that I have bought, or been bought from markets around the world. I think there is something so awesome about going to a place, having a million memories and being able to wear that anytime, anywhere. It's always subtle because you can never tell where they're from, but I love it. So, xmas is coming up................................................................................ hint x

I am THO excited for Christmas, I get to go to Cambridge to see my fam and eat enough food for 3 people and get pressies and give pressies, probably my favourite time of year. Even these earrings look like little Christmas trees, the excitement is real.

But yeah, sidetracking. 

I will hopefully be uploading LOTZ this holiday as long as I'm not working too much.

Oh and also, I am selling lots of bits (most of it gross) on my ebay, so have a little lookie - elsmis2010 some of it is nice lol

TA FOR RETURNING

Big love

(come back soon)

I repeat-

(If you don't want to get me a Christmas pressie, then I will accept you following my other social media's as a gift instead.)

Bauble Gloves

Coat - Gant

Turtleneck Dress/Top - Ellesse

Silk Scarf and Hoops - Bastille Markets

Necklace - Portuguese Coin on Chain

Gloves - No idea soz

Sparkly Socks - Primark

Shoes - La Moda

Lip liner - 08 'Red Blush' (Superdrug for like £1)

Hey hey!!

I've worked out how to balance my blog and my uni work now, so I'm back to posting once a week. Yay.

*cheer erupts from the crowd*

If you know me well, you will notice that the above outfit is basically what I wear everyday; an over-sized turtleneck top that I used to wear skiing as a dress, pair of tights and either boots or trainers. Not even joking, the amount of these turtlenecks I have my wardrobe looks like Homer Simpsons. You literally can't go wrong with this, it's pretty much all black meaning you don't have to think about clashing what you're wearing with your coat and it is amazingly comfy. Nothing tight so you can eat 5 meals that day, and it is almost acceptable to wear out to dinner if you were having a good face and hair day. 

But obviously, as this is a 'style' blog, I decided to jazz it up a bit for you all. How snazzy are these gloves, well fingerless things?!?!? My mum's friend bought them for me as an 18th birthday pressie, and I've rediscovered them. They are actually cashmere or something else fancy, making me feel a bit prestige. I did actually try to pick off the balls (lol), but eventually decided it wasn't worth it. They're like a Christmas tree on my hands!! I'm a walking bauble. On that note, 32 DAYS TILL CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! So if any of you loooooooooooovely people feel like sending me gifts I wouldn't object, I'm not picky, so send away!!! 

Red lips are very christmassy aren't they. But I always find with my Mac 'Russian Red' as its matte, my lips get soo dry so wearing it, and in Winter it's an absolute mare. But this colour actually stays on pretty well and it was only £1. (£1?!?!?!!?) I've always found with things like eyeliner and lip liners the cheap ones are as good as the expensive, and even if they aren't... you've lost like a pound so it's not really the end of the world. Superdrug stock thousands, it's like a secret liner world.

I'm still searching for the 'perfect' winter coat, but I don't know whether I'm feeling a sheepskin aviator jacket or like a long wool duster, if you lot know of great places to get either PLS let me know. I can't go on like this without one. *dramatic swoon*

SO YE.

That is all for this week!

Thanks for visiting, love to you all!!

Feeling Thigh High

Dress - American Apparel

Knit - Topshop

Bra - Adidas

'ellie' Necklace - Prague Markets

Rings - Worldwide

Socks - Primark

Pashmina - Could be anywhere really..

Boots/Coat - (Mums)

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.

Socially Acceptable Tracksuit

Trousers - Adidas Vintage

Jumper - Mum's Wardrobe

Belt - Vintage

Fedora - H&m

Socks - Topshop

Shoes - Superstar II by Adidas

Finally got round to shooting a new Ootd, life has been seriously hectic recently so you will have to excuse my very un-made up face. But here it is, the almost socially acceptable tracksuit outfit. Probably should have ironed these trousers before I put them on, but they're that weird fabric that constantly creases so there's never much point. I found these gems when I was in Bristol in February time last year with my friend at a vintage shop thing, they're 100% silk so they feel unreal to wear and they only cost me £15. My only problem with them is how wide they are around the hips, like hammer-time trousers.. not the most flattering. Normally I would wear these with some sort of cute crop top to balance out the Kim K bum they give me but seeing as Autumn is officially here, it's too cold for that nonsense.

Which brings me onto the strange occurrence with my hair, it seems to reflect the season.. and now that the leaves are orange-y.. I'm becoming even more ginger, very odd. Not that I mind, Ariel was always my favourite Disney Princess. On the subject of hair, however much I love this hat, it doesn't hold very well unless my hair is straight which is such a shame because I really love it, so if any of you curly girlies have tips for that, they are extremely welcome here. And no, bobbie pins don't work.

My new babies were my 19th birthday pres from my parents, and they are the best. (I'm 19 how old is that?!?) Not sure why I haven't ventured to Adidas Originals before, because they are super (get it) comfy and they come in my size!!!!!! Ye the excitement is real friends, adult shoe's finally fit me. I was considering getting the suede ones, but I felt after my boks' I didn't need two green suede trainers, seemed a little excessive even if green is the best colour. I've seen a few white versions of these around but I thought I would really go wild and get the black ones, which I lav.

I still can't believe how much support blogging has got me and it is honestly the best thing I have ever decided to do with my spare time. So I thank you all for reading it and sharing it etc etc it means a lot! That's the most emotion I can produce right now, but you are all just really gr8 and know that I love every one of you who visits.

BIG LOVES

Faux Monochrome

Leotard - eBay

Skirt - East End Thrift Shore

Grey Tights - Primark

Socks - Topshop

Shoes - LaModa

Bag - Radley

Fluffy Keyring - Amelia Jane

Sunglasses - Some girl on Depop idk

Choker Thingy - Primark

Faux Septum - La Moda

So I went to my first east end thrift store a few weeks ago and found this leather badboy for a £1, although much shorter than what I usually wear (hence the weird coloured tights) I actually think it looks pretty cute. Decided to monochrome up for this 'Ootd' to match my extremely good fake sunglasses.. "faux" if you like, but let's be honest here who has £150 to spend on a pair of sunglasses?!!?! (why is it called a pair when you only buy one?)  For me though, things like this, fake wins everytime. Except in the case of boobs, fake boobs look weird. But whatever, seriously sidetracking.. I looove them, and they say "cross my heart - hope to die - stick a needle - in my eye" which is nice. I feel ready to whip out my vogue (the dance not the magazine) any moment now.

Onwards, turtlenecks are one of those statement pieces in every persons wardrobe, and if you don't have one.. you should probably get one. They literally look good with anything that's acceptable to wear in public and they're comfy, like burkenstocks, so added bonus. They also hide your neck, so if you don't have a nice neck.. it's a good purchase. Anyway this great little number is actually a leotard, that cost me £2.87 from Chinese ebay!!!!!!! And it's a thong so no awkward VPL for me! Don't be that person who has the VPL, ultimate pet hate.

These shoes look like they could knock out a mafia, but surprisingly are amazingly comfortable. Sadly they come up quite big on my stupidly small feel, so I have to wear them with socks. Fabulous sparkly socks I might add. But socks all the same.

Anyway, I'm seriously snowed under with work, so I'm going to have to cut posts down to once a week. My next week's post will be overly excited as I am GOING TO PARIS!!!!!!!

And don't panic, my instagram will obviously be overloaded with Laduree and eiffel tower puns. And I may come back 5 stone heavier, with a mock french accent. 

SEE YOU NEXT WEEK LOVELIES

Lobster Darling

Dress - China

Harriet Bag - La Moda

Shoes - La Moda

Socks - eBay

Earrings - Forever21

Hola!

I know it's been a while but I've been crazy busy with uni stuff and haven't have aaaaaany time to give this blog some TLC, but HEY I am back, aaand with an 'ootd'... what could be better?!

Nothing. Nothing is the answer.

This outfit is a couple weeks old from my friend Funke's birthday dinner at the Lobster and Burger, but I really liked it so I thought it deserved a post. I won these La Moda goodies in their instagram competition which was so fab and they have quickly become my favourite shoes, so so comfortable and they make me the much less adorable, however much more normal height of 5'6" which is just fab. If you want to check out the original blog post I did about the things I won, click here, the magic link will take you there people.

I never really was into the oversized bag thing as carrying something on my arm always seemed pointless and annoying, but now I have one it's a whoooole new story. This one has a long strap for your shoulder so no awkward arm, and ever since my prom dress I've decided red is the ultimate colour, so choosing which bag I wanted was easy. As you'll probably notice if you keep up with my posts it is quite rare for me not to wear this sort of jewellery, so of course I am armored with over-sized earrings, a classic move. Although I am constantly torn between hoops and chandelier style, and after leaving my favourite hoops on a train *cries* I've resorted back to big and bold. 

Anyway, as previously said in a million blog posts, China is bae. Especially China on eBay.................or eBAE, if you know what I mean. 

You don't know what you're missing out on until you enter the Asian shopping world on eBay, you can literally buy ANYTHING. From a whole lace catsuit to toilet supplies, it's great. Not that I buy either of those things.. but you follow my point. I've worn this dress every way it could possibly be worn, from clubbing to beach wear to dinner to casual, love me a bit of versatile clothing. I can already tell you're desperate to see this worn another way, have no fear my lovely reader, just click this cute little link.

If you've never been to this restaurant, you should. It was epic. I have never had lobster 'whole' before and they literally bring you a lobster (dead) on a plate. [See above picture] with garlic butter, the buffest chips and a salad. You even get a bib (cute) and a little hand wipe (uber cute). You know that scene in 'When Harry Met Sally'... I was Sally in this moment. And trust me you want what I had. Although saying that, using those plier thingy's in a public place was a nightmare, lobster was literally flying everywhere. Lil' bit of advice, don't take someone on a date there, it's very messy. And not in the sexy way.

Anywho!

As always, thanks for stopping by, any support is extremely welcome. 

The love giving is at a large here!!

Hopefully post's will get more frequent as I get more used to being back in an academic (not really) environment.
