Hey guys! I'm so poor it's not even funny...my spending budget is £25 a week till January so lots of recycling clothes for me. Should probably get over my shopping addiction anyway... I wore this outfit today to uni, it was pretty sunny so I whipped out the dungarees I got from the East End Thrift store student sale (i''l be doing a post on it later in the week). I'm sure you already know but I was Educate Elevate's Flygirl of the week last week, they sent me a bag of goodies including this beanie (which ahsn't left my head for DAYYYS! I absolutely LOVE everything on their site, I'm addicted to anything 90's at the moment so if you are you should go check it out HERE.

May as well be a double whammy outfit post...

 Tee : C/o Educate Elevate

I wore this yesterday just going into uni and bumming around. I am in LOVE with this glittery skirt I got from Primark a couple of weeks ago, I saw a very similar one in Topshop (gold glittery) for about £20 as well! I frigging love my Big L quote t shirt too :) (if you don't know who Big L is just search him on Youtube AMAZING!!) he's dead though :( .

Blogging is taking a back seat at the moment I'm afraid, it's so hard being in my third year, I have so much work and all I really want to do is write and read blogs waaaaaahhhhh! How's everyone else finding uni at the moment? It's only my second week and I'm swamped :(

Have a wicked Thrusday :)

American Apparel Factory Outlet Brick Lane Picks + River Island Riding Pants dupe

There are a few advantages of being back in the East End for uni, one of them being the American Apparel Factory Outlet being just down the road on Brick Lane. EVERYTHING IS SO MUCH CHEAPER!  We are talking £34 for disco pants, £30 for florescent chiffon shirts I KNOW!!!! £11 for crop tops etc.. And the best thing is it goes on until the 14th of October, so if your in London definitely get down there.

Here's just a few of my picks on sale at the outlet :



- All available at the American Apparel outlet sale-

Anyway, today I headed down and bought some riding pants in Steel Grey for £34 BARGAIN. It's weird but I wasn't going to get any till I saw these from River Island :

American Apparel riding pants dupe - £35 River-Island

I went to River Island after work an tried them on, they were really nice and very similar material and looked great on. Fully would have bought them if they came in other colours and if they weren't £1 more expensive than the actual American Apparel ones I got today...

Moral of the story is - for the love of god, go down to the AA Outlet if your are around London before October 14th
