Did you ever watch So Little Time with the teenage Olsens? Also did you think their book was a little too much about their icons and too little them- the whole reason you bought the book? Anyway, I'm back from holidays so am back with the tripod YAY and have a bit of time to blog. A lot of bloggers get sad when they don't fit in time to blog and I used to feel rubbish when I couldn't blog, but genuinely sometimes there aren't enough hours in the day to do everything you have to! I hate any hiatus but on the plus side I have a lot to post! There's still work and presentations and exams but oh well, all might be perfect because I might be seeing Girls Aloud on Friday!! I say might because I scored some original price tickets on an ebay auction with a badly keyworded title (i.e. didn't have the city/arena name in it) and we just collected them from a friendly-ish man, but may have just been sold pieces of paper! Hmmmmm paranoid because there might be nothing better right now than Cheryl in the flesh!!!! I'm praying the small chance that they are not legit is not true!
OK crazy girl talk over, here is a new top I got off ebay while searching for crop tops! It's obvs Moschino and is 'gently used' and may be some kind of swimwear but hello polka dots, it's fab! Not the most practical of items but one of those one-of-a-kind things where you find yourself bidding high because nothing like it will come around again in a while! I was going to photograph it with normal things but I'll just save that for when I probably end up wearing it in the summer for real, maybe I need to acquire a photographer boyfriend. I'll look into it. Anyway, Henry Holland has infiltrated my brain and somehow his most recent collections quite tickle my fancy. I wanted an overdose of polka dots. This time last year I did not appreciate colours and prints, right now I am a print magpie.
H&M skirt, rag market tights, eBay shoes, Primarni hair bow, Love Hearts and Crosses Disney bow necklace
Ah don't worry I haven't forgot about the LH&C competition!! Infact I have been gathering a few things to add to the packages and will do the draw VERY soon. Possibly tomorrow. I looove this necklace and might just keep it, it's so chunky, like a big slab of plastic. And it's glittery! No I still haven't got over this barbie phase.
Self-made red skirt, can't remember the brand white socks (will investigate memory), Office wedges (which have gone down to £20 in their sale, shocking!)
This is too lolita for day time but like I said, this was just outfit fun. I think this is just the right amount of flesh to show with a crop top for your middle section. In one of my lecturers with the Fashion Retailing course there was a girl in a crop top! There must be about 150 girls and a few guys in my biggest lectures but I only have a few style crushes, one is this very petite girl who wore the Topshop Eiffel tower crop top with seriously tight high waist jeans that looked like leggings. There's also a girl with amazing hair, quite like Cheryl Cole hair, but I think it's actually natural, and lots of Chinese girls who wear head to toe labels, swoon! There's a Chinese girl in my bra hanger group (we had to create a product in New Product Development (duh) and we made a bra hanger, don't ask!) and she has a hello kitty obsession, we are like kindred spirits! She calls everyone darling too and I had a hello kitty notepad and she was like 'omggg darling where did you get this!!'. When another girl went to her flat to make the hanger apparently eeeverything was hello kitty, haha fab! Can you guess what her english name is? Ah she is too cool.
H&M trousers, Primarni flats.
I felt a bit insane with the outfits so tried out some of my least high waisted trousers but I think this is too much on show for daytime, even with the flats. Ohhh and before anyone says anything, yes I had my hair cut, yes they cut way too much off and yes this is very upsetting! Seriously have you ever heard someone come out of a hairdressers and say 'oooh I'm so upset, they didn't cut enough off, I look so ugly!' No!!! When I said I wanted the ends off I didn't mean half my hair! Boo! It's all fine when you walk out of the salon and it's blowdried well, but right now I have no idea what to do with it, when I curl it it's just a wavy bob, which is a major shock to the system considering before it had just hit the stage where I could sit on it. Oh well I was going to be upset but told myself to man up, hair grows back, it's not even short, just shorter. This week I've had to curl it and then straighten half of it, argh! Also I just realised all the clothes in this post are cheap bargains. I guess you can't complain at that! What's your gossip? Do tell! P.S. Can you tell it's 2am?
