"we're becoming unsocial, it no longer satisfies to engage with one another."





The irony that this post is technically on social media but I think this is worth sharing, v important message.
I think it is so sad that now when we go out, concerts, festivals, parties etc the only way people have 'fun' is by sharing it on social media, people need to put down their phones and actually get involved where they are.

Skort Loving
















Skort - Primark
Shoes - Primark
Grey Crop Top - Topshop
Black Cropped Off Shoulder Top - Boohoo
Necklace- eBay, you can get it here
White Scrunchie - DIY
Nail Polish - Chanel, don't know the number sorry
Lipstick - Mac 'Russian Red' in matte, I think its number 73
Coat - Vintage, was Dads years ago but I found it and told him I'm keeping it

Primark is seriously good right now! Minus they're overly tacky neon clothing and leather copies, but shoes wise and skirts / matching sets are pretty cool. worth having a look. Feel like I'm always apologising on this, but sorry for the boobage, bra's ain't ma thing.

So this is another outfit selection, it's definitely smart enough for dinner and with the right make up and hair actually done, possibly party. Seeing as I have an 18th tonight, I shall style it up and repost the results. The cut on this skort is much more suited to someone with (short and stubby) legs like mine as opposed to the geometric shaped one which suits long (lucky) legged girls, I think (hope) its flattering, and I love the pattern and colour, makes a change from wearing black bottoms. Also gives me an excuse to whip out the St. Moriz and look especially bronzed. I'm feeling these shorts could also be easily made casual with a long shirt or a baggy crop top and trainers, versatile, lovely.
I may start wearing these shoes all the time.. that's how much I love them, so expect many more blog posts including these, even if the post isn't relevant.

Never know how to end blog posts, I think I need a signature thing?

'On Wednesdays We Wear Pink'

So, I finally got the courage up to do an actual clothes post, and I'm new to this so try not to judge me too harshly. Thought seeing as it is the 10 year anniversary of Mean Girls, I'd do an inspired post of a 'Pink Wednesday' sort of outfit.






And here goes..

Oh and apology in advance for the 'mirror selfie,' the auto focus on my camera wouldn't, well.. focus on self timer so this was the only option. My mirror has weird lines running through it, so I apologise for that too.






 



Top - h&m (very old)
Shirt - Primark 
Jeans - Can't actually remember but possibly also h&m, DIY ripped, click here for my tutorial post
Boots - Ebay, but this is the link for the person who sells them
Scrunchie - DIY

I have actually had four whole requests on a Scrunchie DIY tutorial, from real people!! So a post will follow soon, along with a 'How To' do french plaits on yourself as that has also been requested (fans x)


Happy Mean Girls Day!
