VLOG | TMI Tag with Pixie Lott & Bluewater Shopping Spree

Becca's video
Leanne's video

I haven't vlogged in a while so I thought I'd take you guys along with me to Bluewater as it was quite an exciting day! Apologies for the awful sound quality, apparently my GoPro doesn't do well in places with a lot of background noise! Let me know if you liked this video and if you'd like me to vlog more, and remember to check out the other videos linked above for more Pixie Lott!

BLUE VANILLA

 
 


HAT // PRIMARK (SIMILAR)
DUSTER COAT* // BLUE VANILLA
PLAYSUIT* // BLUE VANILLA
BAG* // STATUS ANXIETY
BOOTS* // SPY LOVE BUY
WATCH* // SHORE PROJECTS
BRACELET // EBAY

I've definitely found a new favourite piece in my wardrobe - I can't get enough of this gorgeous glittery duster, not seen anything like it before and it's perfect for adding a bit of pizazz to an all black outfit.  I'm loving mesh paneling at the moment, with all the party dresses having mesh cut-outs here and there (some being a little risque actually!) so I love the subtle detail on this playsuit - makes it perfect to dress up or down.  Obviously I had to finish off the look with a choker and some chunky boots, and this pair from Spy Love Buy are a new favourite, can't get enough of their clunky charm!
This is definitely something I'd go out partying in (perhaps finished off with a fur coat) - what's your partywear of choice for the winter?

Stand Tall Amongst Giants AW14

      

As I created this post so long ago I thought that I'd already published it, until I stumbled upon it in my drafts - oops!  If you follow my socials, you'll know that a couple of months ago I took a day trip into London to photograph the new Stand Tall Amongst Giants collection.  The team was so lovely and I got to shoot with the awesome Jordan Green again, who also photographed my Glamour Kills lookbook so it was nice to see a familiar face, as it's a little unnerving walking into the studio at first!  It was really cool to work with Charlie Winzar & Billy Huxley and I love the new collection, especially the harrington jackets, and the hoodies were so cosy I didn't wanna take them off!

The new collection is available on the STAG website now, and I think their collection makes for the perfect unisex Christmas gift, don't you think?

The Ultimate Takeaway Attire - The Twosie


Now I've seen crazy fashion and owned some questionable pieces, but I seriously think that this one takes the cake (or er.. california roll!). Introducing to you: the JUST EAT takeaway twosie! 


There is method behind the madness - according to a survey carried out, most couples would pick tucking into something tasty on the sofa over blowing their cash on a night out, and I'd definitely label myself as the stay-at-home type!


Polly and I, both being enthusiasts for a good onesie and takeaway, accepted the twosie challenge, so after a long peruse through the JUST EAT website and a last minute change from fish & chips, we decided on a chinese feast as sadly, Camberley is way behind the times and lacks a sushi delivery service to match the our twosie.


JUST EAT say: "Each couple gets an arm, a leg, and a shared third leg – meaning they can easily tuck into each other’s takeaway. Hand-made in Italy, the twosie also includes loads of handy pockets for stashing food, cutlery and dips."

Perfect for a wintery three-legged race, am I right? As you can probably imagine - hilarity ensued. After sitting down to tuck in, we realised that we had no plates or cutlery and spent a good while waddling around, giggling like conjoined idiots and taking snapchats featuring our special cutlery pocket. We did eventually have to unzip as hunger took over and we required use of both arms, but we may or may not have spent a good while monging in front of the TV post-takeaway before er.. bladder needs took over and we had to go our separate ways.


It was seriously a takeaway to remember, and now I have an excellent costume if I ever feel the need to dress as a two headed sushi monster! Would you try out the twosie?

CHOKER* // DAISY MAE
DRESS* // KEROL D
RINGS // SUDLOW, CHXRMED*, AMELIA MAY*, INFINITINE
LIPS // MAC BOYFRIEND STEALER (SIMILAR)

The sun apparently doesn't like appearing for more than a couple of hours at this time of the year, so I thought I'd share some crappy inside studio-lit photos to make up for the lack of outside ones! I will try my best to find some time to take some proper photos, but for now, these'll have to tide you over, have a good week guys!

NO.1 BITCH

  

FEDORA // H&M (SIMILAR)
JUMPER* // DROP DEAD
SHORTS* // LILY LULU
BOOTS* // MISSGUIDED (SIMILAR)


Once again, another set of photos taken in Amsterdam back in September, but this is the last set, promise!  I'm not wearing any make-up as this was the morning we got the plane back and we were in a rush to take the photos, which explains why there's not very many!  I've been trying to type this post for ages now to no avail as I'm way too into American Horror Story (unf Evan Peters) so I'll leave it here for now - see you next time!
