Nike Air Max 90 : My sisters

Heeeeeeey guys :) Just a quick one, I'm sat in bed watching the graduate on telly and feeling sorry for myself. I went to a house party last night and have the hangover from hell. I definitely cannot handle my drink like I used to - I vaguely remember singing various songs by Beyonce to amused passers-by in the early hours of this morning. So, today was spent trying not to throw up all over my hot dog and not looking my best. In fact, I'm sat in bed wearing the same sweatshirt from yesterday only it's covered in mud now...

Surprisingly, it was sunny in London on Saturday - so I thought I'd whip out my ombre cycling shorts for a day of charity shopping with my sister. I looooooove this neon beanie Suzan from Educate & Elevate sent out to me, their stuff is AMAZING, so 90s it's ridiculous and the brand has a good message behind it. Anyway, I managed to pick up a few bargain beauties and since I realised I haven't done a haul post in AGES so I'm going to be posting a collective charity shop/high street haul tomorrow :)

Day and Night : Tropical print playsuit - transparent crop top

Denim Shirt : Charity shop

Playsuit : Primark

Belt : Moschino via charity shop

Backpack : Primark

Sunny G's : Primark

Trainers : Nike

Earrings : Topshop and Paks

Bindi : ebay

What is it with the heat in London at the moment? It feels like Barbados! I thought I'd dress appropriately in as little as possible. I borrowed this cute tropical print playsuit off my sister, I love it, reminds me of those vintage Hawaiian shirts in playsuit form. I HATE my upper arms as well so I threw on this oversize denim shirt I cut the sleeves off over the top and HEY PRESTO flabby arms are gone :) !

Jacket : Vintage Nike via Ebay

Top : DIY from tights

Disco Pants |: American Apparel

Heels : H&M

Necklace : Peacocks

I went out the other night, my lovely boyfriend took some pictures of me after I got ready, taken with a phone camera sorryyy! I'm seriously clutching at straws at the moment, making a top out of tights a la goth. Skint as hell. And I'm SO glad I got another chance to wear my H&M neon heels, those bad boys were so worth the £24.99!! So all in all I was actually going for the 90's - hoochie mama - could be a member of some forgotten R&B girl group look, success? I think so :)

Now I've joined the 21'st century in the phone department I now have Instagram , my username is Frankiegd , let me know your username and I'll follow yours?

Been a pretty productive week in terms of finding stuff I'm dying to buy and can't afford as well... may as well share a bit of the torture with you guys :D

Studded clutch : £8 SelectHERE - SO CHEAP and so similar to the Topshop and Zara ones, for a fraction of the price GIMME!!
Gold toe cap heels : £16 Matalan HERE - Only £16 need I say more?
Samsung Galaxy case : £4.29 Ebay HERE - Just bought this cutie for my new phone, love the bright colours.
Backpack : £30 River Island HERE - You may have noticed I'm loving backpacks at the moment!
Leather sleeve jacket : £60 LavishAlice HERE - I missed the boat on the Zara version but I would happily settle for this one, I want a denim one with leather sleeves too.
Galaxy Swimsuit : £35 Topshop HERE - I hate to say it but so much cheaper than BlackMilk, it has to be done, sorry sharkies :/
Unif Hellbounds : £175 Urban Outfitters HERE - Still need these in my life, pretty steep but I want to be taller than everybody else SO BAD.
Midi Dress : £32 Topshop HERE - I love a good Midi, animal print is still high on my list of fucking awesomeness and this would look great with my camo jacket.
Fire opal Ring : £8 Dixi HERE - I LOVE opals and this ring is beautiful, when I get paid...

nearly Christmas I guess...

I feel like I haven't blogged in AGES, so much has happened. I've started my new job at Miss Selfridge, it's really hectic and I'm learning so much already. Who knew you had to steam EVERYTHING?? Telling you now you don't appreciate the amount of work that goes into making a shop presentable till you do it yourself. The best thing is that everyone I've met so far is lovely and the worst thing is I am constantly shopping in my mind during my shift then not being able to buy anything because I haven't been paid waahhh!!!

I'm sure everyone on the planet is demolishing the sales apart from me, but this is what you get with no money , a denim pocket and a pair of cut off fishnet tights :D
