SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT #BankTheLook

Beanie* // BANK
Jacket* // BANK
Top* // BANK
Leggings* // BANK
Dr Martens* // BANK
Necklace // Primark
Bracelet* // Papa East
Rings // Vintage, The Lost Lanes*, Regal Rose, Native Feathers*, market, Vivienne Westwood

So recently I was asked by Bank to participate in the #BankTheLook feature, the theme this time round is punk grunge inspired by Nirvana.  The tartan leggings go well with the simple tee and of course I had to finish off with Doc Martens and a leather jacket.  I thought I'd also don my Vivienne Westwood ring as a little nod to the origin of punk, as she was one of the founders after all!  BANK has created the best selection of clothing to shop from so if you would like to check it out just click here!

Iconemesis Kitty iPhone Case

Case* // Iconemesis
Nail varnish // OPI Hey! Get in Lime!
Ring* // Dixi
Necklace * // Dixi

I am delighted to finally add another Iconemesis phone case to my collection! My other one is a Fifi Lapin one which I actually blogged about here.  This design was created by one of my favourite designers, Gemma Correll, whos illustrations I studied for practically my whole two years of college, so it's great to be able to look down and see a load of happy party kitties on the back of my phone!  The print is very high quality and the case feels good quality and sturdy, which is very important as I'm constantly dropping my phone all over the place but I want to keep it in mint condition!  There are a ton of other lovely designs featuring characters such as Fifi Lapin and more so check out the website here!

STAR SPANGLED DANGER

Flower Crown* // Rock 'n Rose
Dress* // Girl Stole
Socks // Topshop
Shoes* // Missguided
Earring* // Body Jewellery Shop
Rings // Vintage, The Lost Lanes*, Henryka*, Hunter Gatherer*, market, Lumafina

I totally feel like a rosy haired Lana Del Rey in this crown from Rock 'n Rose, it's just so beautiful!  I thought it would go perfect with a black dress and this lacy number worked a treat.  I finished it off with some olde-timey jewellery and voila - a relatively gothy Amy!

VIDEO // 3 Minute Makeup Challenge


A fairly short video for my channel seeing as I usually post hauls, and yes I have posted 2 makeup videos in a row, but I edited this last week so thought I'd post it today!  Let me know what you think of my attempt at the 3 Minute Makeup Challenge and feel free to leave your own video as a response!

WE'RE FATED TO PRETEND

Dress* // Oh My Love
Spike Sandals* // Missguided
Bracelet* // Hunter Gatherer
Necklace* // Hunter Gatherer
Rings // Rachel Sudlow, Ette*, Regal Rose, Hunter Gatherer*, market, market

So some of you will probably be aware that I was at Reading Festival this weekend and I had such a blast - this was my 6th time in a row and 8th altogether and I can safely say that this has been my most favourite year.  At first I was pretty unhappy because I was with my boyfriends rowdy mates who I didn't know, but I met up with a load of friends camping elsewhere and we truly made the most of our ticket, seeing loads of bands.  Anyway - story over and onto this outfit.  This maxi is so flattering and actually the only maxi that is the right length for my 5'10" frame!  I kept it simple with sandals, as if I was popping out to the beach but added my statement thunderbird necklace with matching ring from Hunter Gatherer to spice it up a little!  I'm not sure if what I'm typing is making too much sense seeing as I only got a four hours of sleep last night - but I hope you guys like the outfit!

JUST SINK OR SWIM


Phone case* // Iconemesis
Top* // Akumu Ink
Shorts* // Choies
Socks* // Trippy Tuesdays
Dr Martens // Bank Fashion
Necklace // DIY
Bracelet* // Hunter Gatherer
Rings // Market, SWAG*, Lumafina, Hunter Gatherer*, market, vintage
Lipstick // Mac Asian Flower (review here)

A very casual outfit today, something I'd wear on a comfy day, as I can't be all out every day!  This tee from Akumu Ink actually has a top hat print on it, and I was in too much of a rush to untuck it to show you guys, doh!  I added some hints of colour with bright lips, jewel rings and some tie dye socks, finished with some amazing patent Docs from Bank, which look awesome and are so comfy!
