TIMELESS BLACK & SOME DIESEL DENIM!

Well, I've not blogged in a while due to moving apartments and the late nights I've had to work to prepare for the Pure exhibition! doh. I'm rubbish.

Anywho, this little outfit was what I wore last week, and consists of items I've owned since my teen years! The boob tube is from M&S and is timeless, and this maxi pleated skirt was just £2 at the ex- catalogue shop Scoops in Middleton, bought many moons ago! I teamed it with a punky studded belt, bought in '99 from Morgan, (when I used to work there) and this diesel denim jacket, with a nice sparkly swarovski crystal brooch to finish it off and add a touch of glamour!

ECLECTIC VINTAGE & BABY PINK!

I have only just finished work- crazy huh. So, this is officialy the latest blog post I've done to date- thus probably the worst!

Anywho, I wore this last Friday for a day of meetings and to meet friends for a drink late on. It ended with some sangria which made a pleasant change! I did however miss the last Johnathan Ross episode ( which is probably a good thing as I'm so sad its ended!)
So... the outfit consists of this Morgan baby pink pencil skirt I've had years, with a long vintage shirt from Rags to Bitches, which was £10. I teamed it with a chunky white leather belt and some tan cowboy boots to finish it off- eclectic style!

£2.50 DRESSES & KILLER HEELS!!

I did'nt even get chance to get a pic of myself yesterday as I worked so late and then forgot! My life is somewhat chaotic at the moment with decorating a new place, moving, as well as packing and preparing for the Pure Exhibiton in London! and a fashion shoot tomorrow!!!
I love to be busy but I am somewhat overfaced! ( Even for me!)

Anywho, I wore this the other day to go to a joint 30th party, which again wen't on until the early hours of the morning! The dress was a bargain from Ebay for just £2.50 and was knee length so I shortened it and teamed some classic black leggings underneath. My killer animal print heels were also a bargain from Primark for £6 in the sale. I accessorised with some cheap gold earrings from Manchester market for £2 and popped on my classic red lipstick for a touch of rouge!...

RELIGION, DIP DYE & SALE BARGAINS!

I hope your all having a fine and dandy day? I got up mucho early today to try and get ahead of my work load so I've not done too bad! I'm off to Lounge Ten tonight for tea, so wanted to make sure I caught up before swanning off when I do, ideally need to work late!....eek.

Anywho, I wore this yesterday and was still freezing cold! I'm not sure whether its because I'm tired or it did actually feel like Winter in good ol' Manchester?? Anyway, the outfit is made of some black tights and a long sleeve black top which I've had years. I popped on my dip dye striped Pretty Disturbia skirt £39.99 with my Ant dip dye matching top (which is now in the sale for just £12.99!) I added some vintage white beads, my vintage patent boots and my much loved Grey, Religion jacket- £80 from The General Store to finish it off! ....Have a lovely evening peeps! x

BRIGHT FLORALS & HOT PINK VINTAGE!

Happy weekend eve peeps! I hope you have some lovely things planned this weekend, and unlike me will be packing and moving house! As well as going to a 30th birthday party and a burlesque show!

Anywho, I wore this yesterday which was a tad summery considering the weather but what the heck! It consists of a floral maxi dress which I got last year from George at Asda for just £2 in the sale! I heart it and its great for summer or going out. I teamed it with a purple shrug from London with a pink vintage 80's belt and clutch bag which were both a £1 each from car boot sales and the bag is real leather! I acessorised simply with a butterfly necklace and some pearls around my wrist to finish it off, with comfy flat shoes so I was quick on my feet for all the dashing about I'm doing this week!...

FLORAL LEGGINGS & MATCHING CROP TOP!

Happy Hump Day all!!! I hope your having a good one?
Last night I painted my new kitchen a lovely battleship grey colour and was exhausted at 9pm after finishing a long day in the office as well as work on the apartment, so I had dinner at Lounge 10 for their amazing 2 course offer for £10! The food is delicious and they change the menu weekly, I honestly can't recommend it enough!

Anywho, I wore this yesterday (when I was'nt painting!) which consists of a classic black dress from Topshop, teamed with some Pretty Disturbia floral print leggings £21.99 and matching blurred floral cropped top £27.99. I popped on my fave, padded shoulder blazer from Primark with my versace belt and some black flip flops for comfort.
I heart mix and match prints for a head to toe look, is it just me??

MIXING RED PRINTS & BRACED PENCIL DRESSES!

I wore this the other day for a day crammed with meetings and to watch Pretty Woman in Spinningfields, Manchester with friends that evening! It was great night, and I do recommend you watch the free films of a Thursday night if you have'nt already done so!

Anywho, I wore, this little outfit which consists of a classic, braces pencil dress with buttons, bought from the Vestry a few years ago for £35. I teamed it with a vintage red striped shirt from Retro Rehab and with a contrasting check print vintage neckscarf and animal print flat shoes from Primark to finish it off.
I felt really smart all day, but I was cold in the evening even with a blanket and my vintage shirt buttons kept popping open so I flashed at passers by! doh...
