Happy Friday! I hope you've had a good week and are looking forward to a 2 day break- like moi! I'm having a James Bond themed party tomorrow night and on Monday I'm off to Alton towers for the day, so I've had so much to do this week, as well as a busy workload and house moving stuff ...still!
Anywho, Its friday and I have a relaxed night planned with friends staying over for a big Dexter Fest!
So, I wore this ensemble this week, which looks a tad French, with the stripes and neck bow! The polo neck dress is from H&M but I bought it for £2 second hand and the neck tie is vintage. I teamed it with some navy leggings and a matching vintage belt, with black boots- as I could' t find my navy vintage ones. Damn. I hate that. I don't mind weird colour combos but in my opinion, navy and black don't really work- unless teamed with purple for an all over bruise look.! Anyway on that note- have a tip top weekend folks! x
I hope you all had a fine and dandy weekend! I had such a lovely restful one- except for getting addicted to season 1 of Dexter, which I nearly watch all of in one day!... Its mighty good, if you've not yet seen it!
Anywho, I wore this on Friday for relaxed day in the office. It consists of some grey marl leggings and my black cut out shoulder top, which I've had since I was about 12! I popped on over it this Pretty Disturbia dip dye stripe mini dress- £32.99, with some silver knee socks and comfy black wedge boots. I accessorised simply with my silver bangle, a black sequin ring ( £5 from the MFN sample sale) ad a studded, black leather belt- 50p on a car boot sale, with a touch of rouge on my lips and nails- so it was'nt all drab grey and black like the weather in Manchester that day!....doh.
Happy Hump day all! I hope your having a lovely day and not working too hard, I mean now we're past the first part of the week, we should look to wind down!?...
Anywho, I bought this mucho lovely dress for just £1 on a car boot sale, and its like new! You can't really see the gold bird applique on my right shoulder but it looks fab! I wore underneath it a turqouise polo neck from H&M with some plum leggings from Next. I wore a plum waspie belt from Primark as well as 2 lots of vintage beads which were turqouise, plum and pearl to match! I love unusal colour combinations, and love the challenge of matching to the exact shade. I really don't think I experiment enough with colour these days! Since I recently purchased 2 amazing grey Jackets- I've been wearing a hell of a lot of grey. Boring Indeed!.... I must remember to be brighter!
Now, Don't I look a moody mare in this picture! Unfortunately, this is my normal expression- which constantly makes builders to "cheer up love" and "it might never happen!" So with this moody mush, I have worn this lovely pale pink perfume tee (which was 50p on a car booty!) and teamed it with this black sequined tutu, which was £5 in the closing down sale at Bay Trading. My floral leggings were £8 from Primark and I wore my beige cheep-but-mucho-comfortable boots which were just £3 new and boxed- on a car boot sale!
I accessorised with a black watch, real silver bangle from Turkey, My marcasite, chunky silver ring and a lovely silver and black vintage necklace.... I'm definitely going to try and smile more on these post pics, as unhappy moody faces, are just not very "Manchester!" methinks.
Well, I hope your having a better start to the week than I am! My day unfortunately started with family issues, a broken phone and my website and emails going down... I've spent most of the day- trying to sort out the latter, which I am pleased to say I managed to do- not without tears and day of uneeded stress and phonecalls though!
Anywho, I wore this lil ensemble last week for a day of meetings. My black top, is from Zara and has cut out shoulders. The check top is a lovely purchase from a car boot sale, which is originally from Next! I teamed it with a contrasting striped, dip dye Pretty Disturbia skirt which retails at £39.99,
with a vintage red leather belt with plain black leggings. Although you can hardly see them, I'm wearing short, high heel lace up witchy boots- which I'm wearing in just in time for Halloween ;)
Well happy Friday!!!! WOoooooOO. Its been a big week all in all for me, so I'm glad its drawing to a close! I hope you have some lovely things planned, and unlike me it does'nt including painting a living room and working on a sample sale! Plus, painting the living room is becoming a small nightmare after buying gold paint, which needs about 15 layers and looks all patchy! doh...
Anywho, I wore this the other day to work and then out in the evening for a mucho fun craft night at my friends flat! The outfit consists of some old grey, wide leg trousers- which I don't have the foggiest where there from, with a metallic leotard from River Island, which was 50p on a car boot sale! I popped over the top this cropped cardy which is from Primark, but was £1- again on a mighty fine Car boot sale! It was a size 14 so I boiled washed it so it shrank! ;) I wore a studded silver belt, black boots and a lace tied bow in my hair to accessorise...a viola! x
Hi peeps! I really have had a day of appreciating Manchester today. The sun has been shining brightly- so much so, I was actually too hot and wore Sunglasses! Friends I have in the city, have been lovely and helpful as per usual and the sunshine set off Manchester's fine architecture and greenery. It's nice just to truly appreciate how great that is and appreciate the lovely peeps and fabulousness of Manchester....
Anywho, I wore this the other day for a day in the office and drinks after work. It consists of a red polo neck top from Hungary, teamed with a satin, black shirt from Marks and Spencers which I paid just a £1 for on a car boot sale! My black gather skirt, (which I always get complimented on) is from Primark, and my grey marl leggings are from Topshop. I popped on my comfy black boots from Varanni ( which were £10 in the sale) and I accessorised with some cheap and cheerful beads, as well as this kooky, grey, bondage belt from Ebay. My grey slouchy bag is real leather from River Island but I paid just £5 for it to a lovely girl moving to Australia, selling everything she owned on a car boot sale! I also picked up an Amazing Vivienne Westwood wallet from her for just £5 also!.... A-Mazing purchase!!!
