Afternoon Tea

Top - Miss Selfridge, Skirt - Missguided, Bag - Asos via Ebay, Shoes - Bertie via Dune.





Watch - Olivia Burton
This afternoon my mother and I headed over to Wisley RHS gardens to have a little potter about and potentially eat some cake. I also thought it was a perfect occasion to show off my brand new Olivia Burton watch which is (will be) a graduation present when I don the gown and mortar board come September! However it is just too pretty to be kept in a box until then.

Weeks ago I found the cutest checked skirt from American Apparel, which I was willing to splash £38 on, until I tried it on and realised it was completely see through! So disappointing. Until I found this super similar little beauty on Missguided for only £15. Total bargs.

And okay, I admit these sunglasses aren't actually Miu Miu but a cheaper substitute. But hey, a girl can dream, right?

Birthdaay List

12, 345, 6, 7, 8.
Ohh is that not just the prettiest wish list you've ever seen? There are some seriously gorgeous clothes around at the moment, although I'm still on the hunt for the perfect faux fur cosy coat. My birthday is in less than a month and these are a couple of the things that have been catching my eye, just click on the numbers to be taken to the item.

The zara jacket is just beautiful, although my mother would no doubt like to remind me I already have many jackets and coats! None are pink, however. I have to say, I'm not entirely sure which event I would wear the beautiful asos tiara/headband for; all I know is it's so freaking pretty! And having read the latest issue of Vogue, I am fully aware that hair accessories are back in a big way.

Oh and that ring... that ring. That beautiful golden tusked elephant ring. I don't think I have ever wanted a piece of jewellery more. I swear, my hands told me that they need it.

Anything on your current wishlist?

Mish Mesh


So I really need to start editing my pictures, but for now these will do. The mesh t-shirt I got from ebay, it's originally from Monki. I'm terrible on ebay, I get very competitive and start yelling at my laptop when someone outbids me. Poor laptop.
Hat - Topshop, necklace - New Look, T-shirt - Monki via ebay, Dress - Miss Selfridge




All the clothes I'm wearing are no longer online, although Topshop do have some similar cami dresses at the moment. Anyway, I hope you like!

Roadkill

I have to admit, I am most definitely not a winter girl. Every year I seem to forget how to dress appropriately for Britain and end up freezing my bum off! Well, no more. The jumpers are out in full force. As is the faux fur. (I've worn this collar probably more times than is deemed cool. Or fashionable.) I will be warm!



Jumper: New Look, Collar: Ebay, Leggings: The Pretty Junk (sold out), Boots: Topshop.




Earrings: Miss Selfridge, Necklace: H&M, Rings (pack of four): New Look.


Barbie nails, eep! Done by yours truly.
I love the sheer panels on this jumper, I think they make it just a little bit unusual. Click the link to see the back, I forgot to take a photo! If anyone would like any nail tutorials, just let me know, I think I got a little too excited about these nails than is suitable for a 20 year old!

Wish List

Hello all! Sorry for the lack of posts (already! What a bad blogger I am). Since it was recently the boyfriend's 21st, I booked us a weekend away, then his lovely sister gave us tickets to see Jimmy Carr and then we both got ill! So, you'll have to forgive me for the lateness. Today I figured I'd do a little wishlist post since I'm still a bit gross and crusty (mmm) and currently sitting around the house in my sweats and slippers.

 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. 6.
Technically I have many other things on my list of lust, but I figured I'd keep it short and sweet! Click on the links to go straight to the items. So I've fancied a pair of leather trousers/leggings for a while, although I'm still not sure if I could pull them off. However, this Topshop pair are gorgeous and I must have them. I'm always on the hunt for my perfect nude lipstick, and after seeing a lot of people rave about Topper's 'whimsical' lipstick, I really wanted to try it, but with such pale skin I'm not sure it would suit me. Then I saw today that they've released a new 'Dark Side of Nude' collection, and this slightly paler 'fawn' colour looks perfect. 

Now I love maxi dresses, despite being only 5,4, but I don't know how this midi dress would look on my teeny frame. I can't tell if it would just make me look like a well-dressed hobbit. Nevertheless, I love it, and the rest of Lavish Alice's dresses. Maaan I need some more faux fur in my life! This hat looks too cosy. Okay, so number 5 is a bit of an impossible dream, but it's nearly my 21st! So, anyone wanna get it for me? No? Okaaayy, I'll just stare at all the Michael Kors watches longingly... 

And finally, the much-coveted-and-highly-hinted-to-my-boyfriend-for-my-birthday-which-is-really-soon boots! I absolutely need these. Not even want, you know, neeeeed. 

So, what do you guys think? Anything on that list that you're craving?
