A bunch of stuff I'm sure we all want : Black Milk x Jeffrey Campbell, Vivienne Westwood galaxy accessories and bracelet clutches





I think I may be the poorest I have been for a very long time, going to top- up my oyster card is touch and go.. yeah THAT poor. 

Jeffrey Campbell + Black Milk
  1.  Back off - bone machine
  2.  Night lita - rainbow galaxy
  3.  Damsel - rainbow galaxy
  4.  Damsel - sick of men
  5.  Damsel - bone machine
  6. Lita Fab - sick of men
I was browsing the Black Milk site the other day, not buying anything due to extreme poorness when I came across these bad boys. Available for pre order at Solestruck, all of these gorgeous boots are guaranteed to be a sell out, my favourites are the Night lita rainbow galaxies mmmmmm...

On a similar note : Vivienne Westwood Galaxy S/S12 

I NEED the shoulder bag with the chunky chain in my life, just the right amount of ghetto bling x nebula = sexy.


Today I became aware of Werelse x mango touch (1). Those wedges and that bag and that cuff, OH MY GOODNESS. I love the up market bondage feel of the pieces, those wedges are lucky they are already sold out because I don't know what I'd do to them, paired with a black oversized t shirt dress and chunky gold chain necklace and you have yourself a look. The clutch with the chain bracelet inspired me to go on a hunt for more like it,  (2) and (3) are both from Zara,  I know this trend has come up a few times in the last few years (Kors/Gucci/Cavalli) but this dark, minimal take appeals to me a lot more than the more embellished designs I've previously seen.

On a far less glamorous note, this is what I wore today  :
p.s I couldn't be arsed to brush/straighten my hair, this is what you get TA DA

Where is it from?

Lipstick : Mac - freckletone 
Tank top : Topshop (via eBay)
Skirt : Hanna's (charity shop and shortened)
Necklace : Anne Maries (I promise I'll give it back next week )
Belt : ASOS

I was at Hanna's last night going through her amazing wardrobe and I found this skirt, she has more clothes than God. I love this print it is so bright, tropical and combined with my new 'smile' belt makes for a lovely sunny day outfit, shame it was raining ha! I'm not sure if I'm feeling the grey tank/big boobs combo, but hey I was at my dads and didn't have any other t shirts clean. 

It's only a short amount of time till student loan day, I CAN'T WAIT! 
As soon as that money hits my account I will be hitting the Pimlico and Hammersmith charity shops hard so watch this space 
8 days to go

Easter, Bristol, hangovers and DIY : Safety-pin cross T


The past week has been the best I have had in ages, although it has rendered me completely skint.. no I mean dirt poor. I got to go home to Bristol for the first time since January (seems like eternity), got to attend my first Shapes, was pretty good and
best of all it's a night put on by some of my nearest and dearest friends. Loads of amazing people 

Above : Me and Anne Marie drunking it up - Check out her nails SO GOOD!



Despite being of questionable sobriety all night I managed to catch lots of what was going on , I especially enjoyed Pardon my French and of course the Lovely Fuz, threw a lot of SHAPES  Definately check this night out if you are in the West Country soon, the Actual DJ Jazzy Jeff is heading up the next night look here.

jazzy

YES THE ACTUAL JAZZY JEFF


But now I'm back in London and back to work, which may I add is going terribly. Being a shot girl is so hard, I'm not pushy enough for sales, the kind of people who tend  go to the clubs I work in are vile, I really don't like men or the women who are bitchy to me because they think I'm hitting on their scum-bag boyfriends GET A LIFE! The things I do for money hmmmm... 
Sorry rant over. 

Anyway because of my lack of work I have had to reinvent stuff I already have 
like this American Apparel tank DIY with safety pins:


safety pin cross

Pretty self explanatory really, so easy and I LOVE it. Also cracking out the purple lipstick lately has have a great reaction, in the above photo, I'm wearing Revlon - Va Va Violet.

But anyway today I went to the doctors and decided to dress up seeing as I haven't emerged from my room for 24 hours after Fabric the other night. I don't even know half of what went on, all I 
know is Christian , If you are out there HEEEY MAAAN! 
I love how the tie dye came out in these shorts, pastels are sick ! I wore the oversized sheer shirt to offset the tightness of the shorts/ attempting some kind of volume like the current trend (I naturally gravitate to tight clothes), I did spend the whole day pulling these out of my bum - however I still looked good n'est-ce pas?



Where Is It From ?

Shirt : H&M 
Shorts : Charity Shop £2.50 DIY cut and dyed
Boots : Dr Martens
Cross Necklace: Topshop
 Quartz chain necklace : Borrowed from Anne Marie , thanks man :) 

As I insist every year, I only received Kinder Easter Eggs thanks to my lovely father.
Why isn't everything made of Kinder?
Hope you had a lovely Easter

One time, at band camp, I made a STUDDED SHOULDER DENIM JACKET


Sorry guys gonna be a short one.

 Today I received some lovely studs in the post that I ordered off eBay last week. They were supposed to be to stud my friends clothes.... but I couldn't resist studdifying my denim jacket.

So I always make shit and don't post a tutorial, this time I thought I would (even though this is unbelievably easy to do)!

<-

You will need:

Studs (I used 0.5 inch ones) - lots like 50
Craft knife 
Pointy little pliers
and a denim jacket
The pickys tell you what to do 
Although some of them are a bit unclear, feel free to ask if you're not sure :)
