IN A BLINDING DREAM #OWNIT


Necklace* // The Lost Lanes
Jumper* // Boohoo
Skirt* // Boohoo
Sandals* // Boohoo
Rings // Kukee, vintage, Rings & Tings, market, Rings & Tings, The Bohemian Co.
Lips // Mac Boyfriend Stealer

Yes I'm wearing a vinyl skirt despite labelling them ridiculous a matter of months ago..I guess you could call me fickle.  I couldn't help myself after seeing so many bloggers rock them and thought it would go perfectly with the eyelash knit jumper which I'm so happy are carrying over into spring because I now have two and have my eye on a couple more from Topshop!  Anyway, must dash as I need to psych myself up to film my next haul video!
Ps. When I reach 10,000 subs on my YouTube channel my boyfriend might let me film a 'I do my boyfriends makeup' video so if you haven't already it would be awesome if you could subscribe!

SCRATCH Nails Neon Speckle Nail Wraps


For a short period of time not long ago I was stupidly obsessed with nail art, trying marbling, nail art pens and even nail wraps, but I just don't have the time anymore!  I was recently contacted by SCRATCH Nails about some nail wraps and thought I'd give it a go as they do some absolutely gorgeous designs, and every month they feature a different artists designs.  They have some seriously cool wraps at the moment designed by Britney Tokyo, the Shibuya Fresh being my favourite!

As I said above, I have tried nail wraps before from Nail Rock and they actually turned out terribly - bubbles everywhere and they just didn't stay flat, and seeing as I get acrylic overlays I didn't think these would work.  As you can see they went on absolutely fine and I'm so happy with how they turned out, it took half an hour ish to do while watching the Great British Bakeoff finale and the best part - no waiting for your nails to dry!  I love the designs and I can't wait to try out my other wraps, I'll be sure to keep you guys updated!

I'M KISSING YOU GOODBYE


Hat // Topshop
Bracelet* // Jon Richard
Necklace // DIY
Dress* // AX Paris
Bag // Lulu Guinness (mums!)
Shoes* // Shellys London
Rings // The Bohemian Co*, vintage, Thomas Sabo, Diamonfire, Rachael Sudlow

It's my birthday tomorrow weeeee!  I'm weirdly excited but not at the same time - I always build up my birthday to be amazing only to get disappointed because I set my expectations too high.  I was just asked what I was doing on wednesday by my mum - got my hopes up because I thought she was organising a birthday meal only to have her ask me if I wanted to be booked in for the flu jab she's having, ah.  I'm seeing Alex so I'm sure it'll be nice, it just sucks that all my friends work full time or have gone to uni!

Anyway enough complaining - lets move onto the outfit!  Yet again I have nabbed an item from my mothers wardrobe (no way could I afford my own Lulu!) and I think it brings the outfit together really nicely as it's quite basic if you take away the print.  I can imagine Twiggy wearing a dress like this back in the 60s, it's such an awesome print and is so on trend at the moment as everyone's going crazy over monochrome.  Oh and how could I forget the shoes?  These babies are from Shellys London who have just launched a huge new collection and I think they have taken over as my favourite shoe brand!  I love the shape of these so much and they're so easy to walk in!

THEY DISGUISE IT, HYPNOTISE IT

Top* // OMG Fashion
Leggings* // OASAP
Spiked Damsels // Jeffrey Campbell
Necklace* // Hunter Gatherer
Bracelet* // Papa East
Rings // Bohemian Co*, market, Papa East*, Lumafina, market, Hunter Gatherer*

My first outfit post since the whole laptop scenario!  I took it into the Apple store today and found out it'll be £500 to replace it which is not the best thing to hear.  On the bright side, I managed to remove the hard drive myself and make it into an external hard drive with some kind of case thing - so I got my files back yay!  Anyway I'm blabbing, I love this cut out skull top, it's so0o0o tumblr~ haha I'm kidding, but it is such a cool twist to a basic, and I think it goes great with these mermaid leggings.  I was a little disappointed that they weren't iridescent awesomeness like the Black Milk ones, but I still like them and they fit great!
ps. Any to of you that watch The Great British Bakeoff, so sad Ali didn't get through!

VOICES SOFT AS THUNDER

Playsuit* // Wholesale7
Bag* // Jump From Paper
Socks* // TPRBT
Shoes* // Persunmall
Necklace // Regal Rose
Bracelet // Thomas Sabo
Rings // Vintage, Persunmall*, Ette*, ?, vintage, The Bohemian Co.*

Yes if you are wondering, the lyrics in the title are from Les Miserables.  I bawled my eyes out at it again last night and had to express my love for it somewhere.  This outfit isn't really my usual style but I got a little 50's(?) inspired from this awesome Jump From Paper optical illusion bag and, truth be told, I couldn't actually get these shoes on my feet without socks.  I'm a 7 and I ordered a size 6 thinking they'd fit but alas I was so wrong, someone remind me to stop doing it.  I've put the shoes up for sale on my blog shop as well as some other items so check that out here!

SHATTERED GLASS


Shattered Glass Bowie* // Kwilti
Monokeros Unicorn Jumper* // Drop Dead
Shorts* // Thriftette
Shoes // eBay
Earrings // Thrifted
Necklace // eBay
Rings // Market, Rachael Sudlow, market, Thomas Sabo, market, The Bohemian Collective*
Nails* // Northern Sky Nails

So I've been so excited to post an outfit featuring this unicorn jumper from Drop Dead and I'm so happy with how the photos turned out!  I love pastel colour palettes so much, especially because I usually wear dark or muted colours, so with this look I got to fully express my inner unicorn!  I wanted to have silver accents, so teamed the jumper with the holographic shoes I bought from ebay a little while ago and my Kwilti bowie, which I think is so unique and goes nicely with my pink hair.  It'll be perfect for winter as well as it's lined with thinsulate material so is great for keeping you warm when winter arrives in England (which is about 80% of the year!).
