Heeeyy!!!!! I've been swamped with deadlines for ages and now I'm pretty much free BACK TO BLOGGING AND C H R I S T M A S ! ! !! This is an outfit from the other night and I'm sure you can tell by the very nature of the outfit and the bath picture I was quite drunk when this one happened... I got these leggings from ebay and they are lush, high waisted and pretty thick, goodbye trousers :) Found this t shirt in the little boys section of Oxfam, I originally bought it with the intention of giving it to my boyfriend (he's half Jamaican) but it was practically a crop top on him so I kept it for myself. The bag and ear cuff I got send from La Moda last week and I LOVE them, I'm not really a clutch kind of girl (they tend to get left behind when things get messy...) but I managed to hold on to this all night thank god!
I'm so jazzed about Christmas coming up you have no idea. I can't wait to see my family and tbh this term has been so shitty, I've let anxiety/ depression get on top of me quite a bit but I'm slowly trying to dig myself out of it. It's really hard when all I want to do is be like FUCK THIS and give up uni...final year though got to get it together! S/O to all my Geography students! So to cheer myself up I compiled a Christmas list (family take note)...
1 - Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX200V - HERE - So I can take some decent pictures for once :)
2 - Kenzo Tiger sweatshirt - HERE - Who the hell doesn't want one of these for Christmas? Get out.
3 - Lazy Oaf Real Happy Jumper - HERE - Take note family, I NEED THIS JUMPER !!!!!
4 - Nike Air Max 1 Liberty Lotus print - HERE These are amaaaazing, already sold out in my size though :(
5 - Dr Martens Agyness Deyn - HERE - The most beautiful boots in the world!!!! Please Father Christmas :D
6 - Topshop flame leopard harness bralet - HERE - I know this probably won't fit my boobs.. but I'll feel like I'm Rihanna in it I'm pretty sure :)
7 - BoomTown Fair 2013 ticket - BoomTown is the highlight of my year!! I need to get back and have a summer of psychedelic hippy fun :)
8 - Topshop Phelvin Boots - HERE - PLEAAAAASE!!! I have never owned Chelsea boots want to give it a go :)
9 - Office Dungeon Boots - HERE - I'm going to be the new Spice Girl, what of it?
I hate these open questions but what do you guys want for Christmas?

Bag Wishlist : House of Fraser edition
I'm SO excited for Christmas already !!!!! I've got my first work Christmas party coming up and I've made my list, emailed it to everyone I know and hoping for the best :) One of the things I really want for Christmas is a new handbag. I'm the kind kind of person who wouldn't really buy one for myself clothes on my back are the first priority and nice bags are a luxury, mainly because I'm always skint. The lovely Stephanie from House of Fraser contacted me about their HUGE range of handbags, and I thought I'd show you my my Christmas short-list. Seriously... there's so many amaaaazing designer brands on the website like Biba, Vivienne Westwood, Lulu Guinness and Moschino it was hard to narrow down but here goes:
Ever since I first saw the Lulu Guinness lips shaped clutches I have lusted after one of these beauties! This studded version is DOPE. This would look perfect with my Christmas party dress which has gold sequins on top with a long sheer skirt, early Christmas present?? Hint Hint :)
I'm in love with lilac at the moment, I really want to bleach my hair and dye it lilac but I'm kind of worried it'd fall out if I did...so I'll have to be satisfied with this Zatchels beauty. The colour would go with pretty much anything, I'd wear it with a casual day outfit like a huge jazzy fresh prince shirt, leggings, huge platforms and my chunky gold chain of course!
Do we not all dream of owning a Vivienne Westwood bag?? PLEASE FATHER CHRISTMAS I've been okay this year... This one is pretty grown up, I'd take it anywhere, so classic! About time I owned something classic don't you think?? I'd go all sophisticated and wear my black polo neck midi dress, spikey gold necklace and some ankle strap heels for dinner with my boyfriend :)
This bag is so bloody 90's and I love it! White jelly plastic, slightly transparent and right up my street! I'd feel like a spice girl with this one, wear it with some flatform trainers, disco pants and my honey coloured furry coat.
I kind of wish I never even looked at the House of Fraser handbag section, Christmas will inevitably be slightly rubbish without one or more of these bad boys. You have been warned.

Crop That Knit
Jumper : Urban Outfitters Sparkle and Fade
Jeans : Brick Lane Market £5
Boots : Dr Martens 10 hole
Belt : Primark
Necklace : Peacocks
Just a quickie because it's nearly midnight and not gonna lie I probably should have my essay done by now, procrastinating at it's finest! I was inspired by the Cheap Monday cropped jumper in last nights post and decided I'd make my own version by tucking my jumper in to my bra all day, which worked pretty well wouldn't you agree? I took a leaf out of Remi's (Check out her blog here her style is amazing!) book and decided to take a craft knife to these jeans, LOVE the result! I had quite a nice day apart from working this afternoon (who likes work bleeuurghhh), got a new DIY project to show you and it is EASY AS PISS! Great one if you're a skint lady like me :)
Gonna get up close and personal with my essay now -_-
GIMME : ASOS Edition
Thought I'd torture myself and browse through ASOS tonight and man I wish I hadn't! Shitloads of amazing stuff and no money to be had in my bank account D: Thought I'd share a few of my picks of the new in and a couple of random finds ENJOY :)
- ASOS Rainbow Hologram T shirt HERE - This is just dope. No other words.
- ASOS Colourblock Green leather biker HERE - Green is my favourite colour, murky-love it.
- Markus Lupfer Leather peg leg trousers HERE - Amazing fit! Leather all the way baby!
- Warehouse Fleur De Lys belt HERE - Warehouse you dark horse you!
- ASOS Jewel Cross Earrings HERE - Tacky + big = ME
- Wildfox 1991 Sweatshirt HERE - Bet this is a bitch to clean but I'm from 1991 so YES!

HEY LOVELIES!!! I'm such a good mood today! Had a hilarious night withh my friend Jackie, don't have a hangover for the first Sunday in weeks and I'm feeling good :) I'm just popping in to uni quickly to print off some reading and this is what I threw on. I am IN LOVE with my new houndstooth trousers from Primark, £7, so cheap and I love the stripes down the side of the legs. I feel like I'm back on the shopping bandwagon, never in my life have I shopped less than I have this month, genuinely think that's what's made me so sad, lack of new shit in my wardrobe wahhhh!I can't stop thinking about Christmas lately either, not gonna lie my Christmas list is getting pretty redonkulous so I'm going to do a Christmas list blog post soon...mainly for the benefit of my family/boyfriend who I know will see it :D What do you want most for Christmas guys? I want more ideas :)
Have a lush Sunday

Styling work : Molly Myrsten
Go check out the shoot on the Next website HERE
I definitely told myself I was going to blog every day this week, lo and behold winter blues has got the better of me until now so in the interest of being short and swett here goes...
Last week I went to my friend Hanna Hilliers place to do some styling for a test shoot she was doing with a lovely model called Molly Myrsten. I don't get to do much styling work because my uni work takes up all my time, but on the rare occasion I get to I LOVE IT! It's so satisfying to see a shoot I have had some kind of impact in to on the Next Models website too. I love working with Hanna because not only is she one of my best friends, but she is an amazing photographer and so creative she comes out with amazing work. She's given me the opportunity to style some amazing models and love her even more for it :)
and this is why I'm not a photographer- cheeky finger on the lens haha!
Some behind the scenes shots by me :)
Is anybody else an aspiring stylist? I'd love to check out your work and get any tips from anyone :) Have a lovely weekend
BIG LOVE

Hey guys :) Wtf? 301 followers????
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
I leave my blog for nearly two weeks and come back to 301 followers, I'm amazed! Thanks so much, without anybody reading it my blog would be nothing but the ramblings of a skint weirdo haha! I love reading the comments people write to me as well, they cheer me up big time when I'm pissed off with life :) I'm definitely going to get a cool giveaway together in the next few days so keep your eyes peeled
Not gonna lie the reason I haven't been blogging isn't actually down to being too busy with uni work, Uni is giving me SO MUCH anxiety at the moment- my solution is to ignore it exists *blahhhhhh*. I've actually just been suffering from ugly days from the best part of a month which is pretty shit, didn't fancy sticking photos of myself on here - been living in my onesy anyway. I still can't get in to winter mode either, I hate the cold, I hate wearing loads of clothes and I hate not owning a pair of gloves WHY THE HELL DON'T I OWN GLOVES?? Better get my act together before bonfire night...
Aaanyway on to the outfit :) I went charity shopping with my friend Gabby in Dalston the other day and I found this amazing skirt in The Second Hand Shop (that's it's name, it's amazing!) for £2. Obviously I wore this out with my denim jacket and cardy, I for one am not resilient to the level of coldness to be experienced in London at the moment. I'm feeling tooooo lazy to write more , gonna eat a burger cooked by my lovely boyfriend and watch Apocalypse Now, make sure you check back tomorrow though got another post coming your way :)

Dads shoes.
Sunny G's : Primark (my sisters)
Necklace : Primark (my sisters)
Lipstick : Revlon Va Va Violet
Sheer Top : Primark £5
Skirt : My sisters - vintage
Boots : My dads Dr Martens
Jacket : Vintage £5
Beanie : C/O Educate Elevate
Oh heeeeeey :) I hope I'm not the only one watching Dogma on telly right now, what a film!!! I stayed at my dads house last night cos my flatmates went up to Newcastle to have fun and I didn't want to stay in the flat all alone, little did I know my wedge trainers wouldn't go with my outift so I thought, ya know what? I'm going to borrow my dads size 9 Dr Martens. Weird I know, but I'm a size 7 so they are only two sizes bigger, and I kind of liked the oversized effect on shoes (check me out being all avant garde!). I can't get enough of my Educate Elevate beanie at the moment, it's great for bad hair days/cold heads. This jacket too!!! I can't believe it was only a fiver, It goes with everything, no longer do I wear any other jacket so guys it's going to be around a lot sorry :)
