Purple Rinse


T Shirt- Fred Perry
Belt- Urban Outfitters
Skirt- Topshop
Hair- Stargazer

I wasn't able to blog last week, which is a bit annoying, but I am back and with purple hair! I dyed my hair Friday nigh with a stargazer purple dye, I really like them and would definitely recommend it because the ingredients don't include any peroxide or ammonia so when you bleach your hair like I do it's good to not keep putting more bad things on it! It looks nice and I’m pleased but this is NOT a good picture! You know when you get in the shower and think my hair is fine then as soon as you get out you realise 'damn I should have washed it!' today was definitely one of those days all the batiste in the world could not have saved it! It has been a strange few days which saw me have to pay out lots of money for my car, then have a job interview then loose my phone then get Glastonbury tickets so very mixed! I'm gutted about my phone but looks like a wonderful friend is able to sell me theirs for practically pennies compared to how much iPhone 4's cost! As for Glastonbury I am super excited, I’ve been a few times already and love it, highlight of the summer but this time two of my very good friends are coming so it's going to be great to spend it with them! 



I bought this belt last week from Urban Outfitters, it was a bit of a whim but I love it, as you know I love the studs, spikes, crosses soft goth trend and this is a great waistbelt which goes with everything. I wore it to the trial shift for my new job on the weekend and it received lots of compliments :)

Skirt- Topshop
Shoes- Ebay
Earrings- Kukee
Rings- Kukee, Topshop and Vintage

This is the first 'what i'm wearing today' blog post I've ever done! It was so weird standing in front of the camera as i'm so used to being behind it for uni and I managed to rope my boyfriend in to take the pictures rather than using a timer. It's definitely going to be a case of trial and error, as I find good places to shoot as well as a good pose which suits me, I am looking ever so slightly wooden in these! Today I have just been making a soup and dying a dress black which sounds very war time, so I went for a simple Topshop black skater skirt and vintage striped jumper. I decided not to tuck the jumper in as I usually would because it's quite bulky and makes me look like I have a weird spare tyre. I also look incredibly tanned, i'm not some crazed fake tanner I have just come back from a holiday for anyone who is wondering! The cross earrings, ponytail and orange lipstick definitely jazz up what is essentially quite a boring outfit and make me look like someone from Saved By The Bell; which I definitely don't mind! The creepers i'm wearing are insanely good copies from ebay and you can find them by following the link above! They're only £19.99 and I get comments all the time about how expensive they must of been because everyone thinks they're real, so if you're looking to get a pair but don't have much money or don't know how much you'll wear them I would definitely recommend getting a pair of these!

London Fashion Week 14/09/2012




Last week I was invited to LFW with Motel Rocks as part of their on the day street team! I was really excited and a little bit scared because I had no idea to wear and knew it was gonna be super 'fashiony'. Luckily I was allowed to have a raid of the samples rail, and pick something from the A/W Motel collection:) After 20 mins of looking I settled on 3 choices; Dana off the shoulder crop top, Libby high neck crop top and the Zabby dress! After finally deciding on the Libby high neck in floral i teamed it with a high waist black skirt with my lace cycle shorts underneath, socks, creepers and some vintage sunglasses. I really liked the look and loved how 90's the top was i'm just not sure if I like having that much skin on show because i did feel a bit self conscious. Probably sound like my nan but I think if i were to wear that top again it would have to be with tights or a maxi!

I went with Selina who lots of you will know from Flying Saucer and we met Jameela Jamil!! She was really lovely and stopped for a chat, telling us how much she loved our outfits and the Motel brand! We spent most of the day snapping street stylers and I met some really great bloggers, who I have followed for a while (their blogs not in some weird stalker way!) My favourite look of the day had to be Anouska who teamed a midi black chiffon skirt with a gorgeous jumper and collar. I love how simple the look was but she just looked effortless and classic as well as on trend. I do think this would be an easy look to create without having to spend money on an expensive collared jumper. Just buying or making your own collar which you could then attach to anything is a cheaper alternative plus then you have a way to update any old jumpers for A/W!


Just to make the day even more exciting I was lucky enough to go to the Bora Aksu show! I felt so professional walking into the show with my ticket then almost got trampled by the stampede of photographers trying to get to Kelly Brook!! She looked amazing! I always think when you see celebrities in reality their gonna be stick thin but she looked so good and normal, well not quite normal a million times hotter than normal but healthy! The show itself was gorgeous, really feminine and full of pastels and texture, it seems like next season is gonna be really girlie not sure how i'll manage to work that trend!
