I HAVE ACQUIRED ...
Hey lovelies :) I'm currently snuggled under a blanket loving life, watching New Girl, I frigging love Schmit 'dolla dolla bells ya'll' LOL! I could go on...Anyway, thought I'd take the opportunity to share some of my recent purchases with you guys. I told myself this month I would only be shopping in charity shops, little did I know the American Apparel Outlet down the road would take over my life and being sad about how shit uni is would make me reach for my bank card. I swear I cannot actually look at my bank account unless I am forced to pay rent or something. IT'S HARROWING.
- Knit Midi dress from Miss Selfridge I got this with my uniform allowance from work, I love it!! It's bodycon and a little sexy with cut outs on the back whilst being warm and cosy for winter.
- Grey midi skirt from Primark
- Glittery midi skirt from Primark I've seen so many people wearing this skirt it's lush, the right length so pervy weirdos won't shout at you in East London
- American Apparel Easy Jeans I had these in light wash but I really wanted them in black, I got them for £34 in the Outlet and they are AMAZING! SO STRETCHY YAY FOR FAT ME :)
- American Apparel Riding pants I wanted these for a while and was so happy to find a pair in grey, they go with everything but they make me miss horse riding :(
- Primark skeleton print cut out shoulder studded shirt What more is there to say, this shirt is dope and already I'm getting into Halloween fever WOOOOOO!

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.

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

My new room has a HUUUGE mirrored wardrobe, I don't think even I could fill it. What better way to utilise the new wardrobe than for an outfit photo? I've discovered new comfort zone in my beanie hat, it covers up shitty looking hair and makes any outfit a bit better somehow. I went for the fail-safe Disco Pants today, they look good with EVERYTHING! I found the polo top I'm wearing today in a charity shop for £1.99. Add some huge gold doorknockers and Jeffrey Campbells and I'm ready for the day.
Been doing some shopping too :
Cossie : Rokit Vintage - £5
Cheesy Tie-dye T shirt - Oxfam £1.99
The fresh Prince shorts : Bricklane Market £1
Don't know about you but my student loan is late D: WHY?? I NEED THIS STUFF -

2.Studded cross Bodysuit HERE - I love this so much, not sure if it'll cover my boobies though...
3. Chain Quilted PU jacket HERE - I saw a girl wearing this on Bricklane this weekend , needless to say she looked sick, now I want it.
4.Spike hair cuff HERE - Badass.
5. Jeffrey Campbell Wolf platforms HERE - So high , but so good! These are perfect for winter.

Jeans : Vintage Versace via charity shop
Belt : Moschino via charity shop
Boots : Jeffrey Campbell Tardy via Office
Lippy : Sleek Vamp
Aaaanyway, this is quite a casual outfit I wore out the other day for daytime drinking in Spoons. Not the most imaginative but consider I was probably about 6' 5" in those heels I must have looked pretty interesting to the drunks sat in the courtyard of Spoons the other day. I have rediscovered my Moschino belt and wear it quite a lot now. I still can't get over the fact it only cost a pound!! Here's a photo of my new babies close up...
Not my disgusting house , my boyfriends :)
In other shoe news I held the majestic UNIF Hellbound in Leopard print today, I think I will be buying these on loan day muhahahhhaa!
-Tartan skirt, an absolute must have for my winter wardrobe . I have been fantasising about one for a while and this one is perfect!
-Gonna DIY stiletto nails (claw like Rihanna nails) this week, my nails are UGLY
-Levi 550's - I'm not that in to 501's - don't like button crotches and the rise is a little too low for me, but the 550 has a zip thank god and a good rise, I LOVE the look of these rolled up, great for winter when my tiny shorts will be reserved for drunken escapades.
-Glittery socks are awesome! Not gonna pay £8 at UO for those, so got them in all the colours off ebay for about £1.50 each.
- Spikey bracelet to go round my ponytail/bun
- Denim hat is AWESOME !
Niiiiiiight!
