FALSE LOVE & AFFECTION



Tee* // Ri Designs
Shorts // Vintage
Shirt // Thrifted
Spiked Coltranes // Jeffrey Campbell
Sunglasses* // GlassesShop
Earring // DIY
Necklace // DIY
Bracelet* // Adorning Ava
Rings // Rachael Sudlow, market, Lumafina, market

I have ventured outside again because I got such good feedback from the Bournemouth photos I took!  These may not have such a pretty background as it's just outside my house..but I tried!  I think in future I want to find somewhere a little more interesting to go - I won't be stopping inside outfit photos but I want to change things up a bit on my blog and experimenting with different photography techniques and ways to edit seems like the way to go..although it's made me realise that I kind of suck at photoshop!

RED IN TOOTH & CLAW

Sweatshirt* // SheInside
Shorts * // Missguided & DIY
Socks // Topshop
Spiked Coltranes // Jeffrey Campbell
Earring // DIY
Necklace // Thrifted
Rings // Darkside*, market, Primark

I absolutely adore this stained glass print sweatshirt from SheInside, it's so soft and the print is so intricate, it reminds me of the Black Milk leggings that were so big a while ago.  I found it a little difficult to style, but I think it went alright with these Missguided shorts that I DIY'd myself at the blogger party I went to a little while back.  I thought the outfit was too casual for chunky heels, so I stepped into my favourite flats, my spiked Coltranes and I like the final result, although I must apologise for the awful lighting, it was sunset at the time but I was determined to finish taking photos!

SWEET KEROSENE

Skull tee* // Chicnova
Shorts // Betty Barclay via charity shop
Chelsea boots // Deena & Ozzy via Urban Outfitters
Skeleton hair clip* // Paccony
Necklaces // Both DIY
Bracelet* // Persunmall
Rings // Vintage, Rachael Sudlow, Market, Primark, Market

So today's outfit is quite thrifty for me!  A lot of the time my charity shop finds might be satisfactory, but never really that amazing.  I stumbled upon a pair of capri trousers in a charity shop in Farnham a little while ago and obviously the first thing that stood out was the fact they were galaxy and rose print, but the price tag was also something like £6 which is a lot for a charity shop.  It crossed my mind to put them back but I decided to buy them, and subsequently made them into shorts, and I absolutely adore them!  They are a little big for me so I'm considering selling them but they're so unique they'll be hard to let go of.  I decided to pair it with my Skull tee from Chicnova, which looks exactly like the Lazy Oaf tee they brought out not so long ago and I never bought.  Not really my most favourite of looks but simple I guess!
