Remember the pink and blue trousers? Well I couldn't sacrifice my love and need for pink trousers and little need for blue trousers. The blue were a better size but the difference was not enough persuasion! I was content with the amount of pink votes on the poll, thanks for voting everyone! It was one of those fashion fate moments though when I went to take the blue trews back to Topshop because there on the last, bare sale rack was a pink pair in the smaller size! So I exchanged them and for a little while had two pairs. That was one crazy receipt.
But pink trousers really are quite heavenly. Although I can't help wanting to team them with circus-worthy wears. I'm thinking in winter they will be great with chunky black knits and boots but for now might be more fit to a Caribbean cruise or a giant hat made of fruit.
I think I've found a half decent place to take photos in my house too! I said goodbye to our second year student digs a few days ago after a great week of goodbyes, don't even ask why I ended up in lazerquest! I also have to express how overwhelmed and inspired I was by the replies to the post below. I was very wary that it was not a signature fashion blog post but hopefully it raised an issue that we can all be a bit more brave about. I can be feisty enough when needed and all your comments and emails made it all feel much better, I'm in the process of replying to all comments so do check back if you left one!
Back to normal blogging times though as there are a few things I want to chat and blog about, first is a beautiful box of little delights from Jazz, an art student at Central Saint Martins who used to run a stall on Brick Lane. She is insanely lovely and just wanted to share some crafty love! Best of all, hair bow love! I've been wearing these a lot, they will end up featuring around here soon! Do check out her sweet blog, especially a recent illustration of Susie Bubble! Thank you again Jazz!
I have so much to blog about! I'll finish up what is the start of a summer of much posting with a tag I was given ages ago by musician and blogger Frankie Ward who I had the pleasure of meeting once! Another lover of hair accessories! 7 things you need never know about me...
1. Chuck Bass is my iGoogle homepage, along with a Gossip Girl quiz, quotes and picture of the day.
2. I am a closet Hills fan. Oh the shame! I love the gossip but also the look into where they work in fashion and how awful their interviews go. I like Whitney!
3. It just took me three days to go through my google reader after exams, phew. I do need to reduce the amount of blogs I read if I want to ever leave the house!
4. I have 15 pairs of false eye lashes at the moment.
5. I used the line 'are you a library book, 'coz I wanna check you out!' about a week ago. It was a dare I promise!
6. I take blusher out with me all the time and across the course of the night my cheeks get pinker and pinker!
7. Despite writing a blog I don't really like writing all about my personal self as I don't think people really care too much, hence why I don't have a Twitter!

That is the most perfect corset top ever ahhh... I've been looking for one just like it, but unfortunately we don't have H&M in Australia! :( Haha maybe I should stop reading fashion blogs and seeing their unattainable clothing!

Love the pink trews on you! I remember leaving my house in the second year and it was so sad but also exciting because you get a brand new house to call your own in the following year!
I love my blush too and own quite a few MAC ones! I adore your bow necklace! I went into Oasis market today and they have quite a big selection of cute necklaces near Beadasaurus. The days I used to hang out there have long gone...but I still can't resist the pretty necklaces and all the hello kitty they have stocked up on!
Also, I read your comment about the saturday flea, I don't really go anymore because they just don't sell anything decent now...everything is only so-so and marked up wayyy too high!
