tartan




 
Tartan scarf - Primark, £4
Denim jacket - mum's old DIY
Leather strip leggings - Charity shop, £3
White tee - Gap, £3 (sale)
 
I was ridicously hungover yesterday and spent until 2.30pm in bed struggling to move. It was my last day with my best friends before we go to uni, so I got up and (tried) to make an effort.
I have been looking for a tartan scarf for ages and finally managed to snap up this bargain in Primark which I am super happy with. I like the simplicity and chilled vibe of this outfit, but teamed with the scarf and my Calvin Klein purple lipstick, it looks like I have made an effort! I also wore my black JuJu jellies too.

DIY floral



 
Blouse - Charity shop, DIY, £1
Skirt - Internacionale, £9
Boots - Select, £20
 
I am totally in love with these boots I bought the other day. They are so similar to the Topshop Arabel boots which makes me so happy. I nearly spent £80 on some Vagabonds the other week so I'm glad I didn't after buying these.
I bought this blouse (which was a midi dress) the other day in hope of cutting and hemming it into an above the knee. But, my rubbish cutting skills ruined it and so now it's a blouse. I really like the way it hangs and the v neck.
 
9 days until i'm off to uni!

shorts&blazer

 
 



 
Blazer - Primark, £7 (sale)
Shorts - Charity shop (topshop), £2.50
Top - Charity shop (h&m), £2
Necklace - Peacocks, £3.50 (sale)
 
I really love this outfit. I love the necklace which adds a touch of glamour to an outfit of block colour. The brightness of the baggy vest contrasts with the peach and black which I really like.

offically a fashion student




 
Leather jacket - Charity shop, £4
Quilted skirt - New Look, £6 (sale)
Black vest - Charity shop, £1
 
So much has happened over the past few weeks! I got into uni to study fashion buying with marketing which I am so excited about; I went to V festival which was so amazing; and I stupidly dip-dyed my hair pink which I highly regret.
I love this quilted skirt. I've been after one for ages but didn't want to spend to much on one. When I found this one randomly in the New Look sale I bought it straight away even though it is 1 size too big.
I'm currently in the middle of buying a capsule wardrobe of staple pieces for uni because I have waaaay too many random items of clothing which don't go together

let's go to the beach each




 
T shirt - Primark, £4
Jeans - New Look, £6 (sale)
Necklace - Primark, £1 (sale)
Rings - Primark and Accessorize
Bracelets - Dorothy Perkins and Tenerife market
Juju jellies - ASOS, £18
 
 
I really love my new 7/8th jeans from New Look. They are super dark and super tight and look great with my Juju's. I wore this outfit yesterday to the beach, changed to a skirt and tshirt in the car, and then changed back to this when it chucked it down with rain!

something different



 
Floral blouse - Charity shop, £3
Skirt - H&M, £3.99
Rings - Accessorize, £1.80 (sale)
Nail varnish - Barry M (grapefruit), £3.99
 
I used to live in short black bodycon skirts, but rarely ever wear them now, unless it's a midi. I also haven't worn this blouse in about a year, but remembered how much I love it when I found it in my 'never where' wardrobe.

floral print jeans





 
White tee - Primark, £2.50
Jeans - Local boutique, £10 (sale)
Gladiator sandals - Topshop, £5 (sale)
Bag - Primark, £8
 
I love these floral jeans which I bought last week. I've been after a pair for a while name but could never justify spending lots of money on such a statement pair of jeans. All summer I've been wanting a pair of black sandals. I found these Topshop ones in my garage the other day which I bought for when I went to Tenerife in February but haven't worn since. They were a bargain at £5 reduced from £62! I bought a new bag on Thursday as I was getting annoyed with always having to carry around my big H&M one, so decided to downsize to a cute little black satchel.
