Top: Ali Express, Jeans: Vintage Armani, Coat: Vintage, Shoes; Converse, Rings: Shop Dixi and antique
I picked this coat up from Oxfam because I loved the boyfriend esque shape and it was inexpensive considering the quality. I think I'll get a lot of wear out of it in the colder months (can't wait for October-January) but I must admit I'm a little wary of it's extreme oversized nature. These jeans have been featured before and I thought that they would add to the vintage feel of the outfit. I've paired them with my striped crop top although I should mention here - get ready - that I am SWORN off crop tops. I feel like I've had my moment with them and I'm getting kind of sick of them if I'm honest. Also they're not particularly flattering with my less than washboard abs - not like I mind cake over Jodie Marsh type stomach any day.

My hair is a lot shorter after I went for the cut again and I'm now getting used to having a bob again. I hope you're having a lovely Summer, I must admit I have so many exciting things coming up in the following months. Especially seeing the 1975 in September where I can be in the same room as my LOVE Matty Healy.

dress: Zara
(similar), shoes: converse, bag: not sure sorry!
Ahh trends, how they come and go. A few months ago this dress was massive in the fashion world and EVERYONE had it, I managed to get the last one in stock while on a trip to London. I decided to pull it out of my wardrobe as I hadn't worn it in a while and I now remember why we all went crazy over it. I love the shape and the material and how it looks way more expensive than it actually once. Zara don't stock this anymore but I've seen them floating around Depop for not too expensive and Choies have brought out a copy although I'd be wary of the material.
I must admit I'm harbouring a secret desire for Autumn to come around and with it dark fashion. However we are still in the midst of Summer I am trying to embrace it. I feel like this outfit is as summery as I'm going to get!

p.s. look out for my fairly dramatic haircut in my next post!
Sheer midi dress: Oxfam, Pokemon crop: Depop seller 'frankenskankk', Cardigan: Very, Shoes: Converse
Feel like it's been ages since I sat down to write a post! This Pokemon tie back crop top is the newest addition to my wardrobe and I love it! I absolutely love cartoons and I used to be into Pokemon and play the gameboy game with my cousins. It's not really the appropriate weather to be wearing a crop top so I layered it over this sheer midi dress that I picked up from Oxfam and haven't worn yet. I love the layered effect I think it adds a lil something. This cardigan is fab! It's so similar to the very expensive American Apparel ones and it's actually quite warm. This is going to sound weird but I feel a bit too dramatic when I'm walking and it flys out behind me like a cape so I have to walk holding it in one hand haha. I love how it's a bit gothic I'm all about that WITCH LIFE can I get a whut whutttt.
Got the usual converse on they're just my go to for comfort and simplicity. I call this hairstyle my 'Li Shang' as it's loosely based around the sexiest Disney character of all time from the best film ever Mulan. On the one hand I think it's cute, on the other it's a bit toddler like!
How are you all?

Jumper: AliExpress, Jeans: River Island, Necklace: Primark, Shoes: Converse, Hair: Frizzy :(
Obviously not me.. yes I wore this to a Christening and yes I was extremely underdressed. I was misinformed by my family that they were casual affairs, tell that to all the other guests in their fur coats, heels and dresses. Whoops! Anyway, I've been awaiting the arrival of this Givenchy inspired jumper for ages - the woes of Chinese wholesalers, I'm surprisingly impressed with the quality of this although I wasn't sure on the fit at first, the boxy shape is growing on me. These jeans are my go-to as they're more of a jegging type stretchy fit and of course my Converse which I've featured far too many times on this blog. Both me and Grace are avid fans of statement necklaces and I love this neon Primark one from summer last year, hopefully Primark bring out similar ones this year!
So learn from my and my family's fashion faux-pas and get your heels on for a Christening!

P.S. Please recommend me products! My hair is starting to resemble Myrtle Snow (Google it if you're not into American Horror Story), please excuse it from these photos!
Jumper: Primark, Jeans: Vintage Armani, Watch:

Leather Converse
Spring is in the air! I'm usually an all black girl but there's something about this jumper that I love, I know everyone went mad for them when they came out so I'm not sure if they're still in stock but pick one up if you find them - they're so soft and the cropped length makes it perfect with anything high waisted. One of the many benefits of volunteering at Oxfam is snapping up all the vintage pieces, these Armani jeans remind me a lot of the Topshop 'Mom' jeans but I think they're a bit more flattering. My black leather converse are definitely one of my go-to pairs of shoes I love how they're different than the popular styles of canvas converse but still comfortable and cute.
Hope January is treating you all well!
