WHEN DID THE DIAMONDS LEAVE YOUR BONES

Dress* // Oh My Love

Necklace* // Delilah Dust

Spiked Damsels // Jeffrey Campbell

Cuff* // Native Feathers

Rings // Rachael Sudlow, markets, Native Feathers*, eBay & Etsy

This dress from Oh My Love has definitely got to be my favourite dress at the moment.  I've never seen anything like it, with the quirky cut-outs and wave-textured material, it kind of reminds me of an oil slick.  The name of the dress is 'Rita' and if they mean Rita Ora, then they've managed to transform her awesomeness into a dress perfectly!  I accessorised with simple jewellery (less is more dah-link) and think this fishbone necklace from Delilah Dust goes so nicely, it'll definitely be a necklace I get a lot of wear out of, and I think it's so unique too.  I also think the cut-outs of the dress looks kind of like a skull, with my studded belt being the teeth, then the cut-outs being eyes and nose..anyone else see it? Just me?

This is also the debut of my new block fringe on my blog!  I got it cut in for a photoshoot and although it's a lot shorter than I would like it's growing on me (literally..haha!) but I'm going to grow it out into a side fringe like I used to have as I feel it makes me look a lot younger, which I don't really like!

Not so long ago I received a bundle of beautiful jewellery from Native Feathers, and I adore everything!  I've wanted a claw bangle for so long and this Eagle claw is perfect, and is hinged so sits comfortably on your arm, unlike other bangles which usually just slip off my little wrists!  Next is the upper arm cuff.  I've always had a love for upper arm bracelets, owning a vintage snake one (featured here) but it's very simple, so you can imagine how happy I was when this one arrived!  I actually wore it to a party not so long ago with a capped sleeve dress, so the band was hidden with the crosses dangling down and I received so many compliments on it!  I just think there are so many ways to wear them and adds a tribal essence to your outfit, which in my opinion is always welcome!  Lastly, I got another eagle claw piece, the ring form in silver, and a simple turquoise ring.  I don't actually own a turquoise ring yet and I've been wanting one for ages so this was a brilliant addition to my (very large!) ring collection, and the eagle claw ring is a simple statement piece, great to be worn on its own for an impact, or (in my case) layered up for awesomeness!

PUNCHING IN A DREAM

Sunglasses // Giant Vintage
Earrings // Topshop
Camo jacket // Reading festival
Necklaces // Tiffany, vintage
White vest dress* // OASAP [link]
Studded belt // brother's (old)
Spiked boots* // Tribeca shoes [link]
Gold cuff bracelet* // OASAP [link]
Rings // Rachael Sudlow, vintage, Spain, market stall, France
Lipstick // MAC Morange

Every time I see someone wearing the camo jackets from Topshop etc that cost like £40 I feel better about myself as mine only cost me £5 from a market stall at reading festival! I love this vest dress as the material is really good quality so it drapes really nicely so is very flattering.  I went for the girly style with a military/punk twist with the jacket, studded belt and spiked shoes, keeping jewellery simple apart from the hand candy that I just cannot avoid, I love my rings!

The only thing I don't like about this outfit is that I really wish I'd worn a belt with it! The photos were taken at my mums and because I've been living at my dads house more recently I left all my nice belts at his house, so I had to make do without.  I adore this dress, and I'm so disappointed at how badly my camera translates the colour of it.  It's a really bright neon pink but it doesn't come out as amazing on camera which sucks.  I bought these shoes off eBay and I'm not totally sure if  I like them that much.  I feel they were more of a novelty buy but I still wear them nevertheless!

Creepers // Underground
Tie dye socks // eBay

Metal cuff // eBay
Ring, necklace & earring // IRIDESCENT

I've seen a load of these sorts of pictures on tumblr and thought I'd try one out for myself! I recently bought this drop arm tee off Boohoo and absolutely love it.  It's a copy of one of the UNIF tanks like this one here and is £50 less than than the real thing!  I made the shorts myself and they are actually on my shop right now.  There is a studded cross on one of the bum pockets but I thought it'd be a little too much considering there's a cross on the earring and the tee! My creepers are there because I wear them every day and I loooove my tie dye socks so I couldn't not put them in there.  What do you think of the outfit? (:
