Shirt: eBay, Kimono eBay, Choker: Ali Express, Leggings: River Island, Boots: Monki

So me and Charlotte are fast becoming bargain queens through our sheer refusal to pay full price for clothes. I layered this white shirt with a black sheer kimono and pulled out my River Island pinstripe leggings which I love. They remind me of the baseball scene in the first Twilight film although they seem to have stretched out in the wash, making me look more wrinkly than a Shar pei puppy, extremely annoying but what can you do?

I added my cleated Monki boots for some much needed height, I'm currently training myself to walk in heels regularly as I'm only five foot, I know it's probably not medically advisable...

My favourite part of this look is this choker. If my memory serves me correctly it was £1.25 with free shipping off AliExpress! Yes it's a little cheap looking and a pitiful dupe of the one worn by Kim Kardashian but it's definitely a statement piece which I have found myself reaching for more often than expected.

I haven't done a smokey eye in a while so I used tease and snakebite from the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette. I can't wait to get my hair done next week, as you can probably see, my roots have been very neglected lately! I'm thinking of going for a darker, strawberry blonde as I've always wanted to go red, I might just chicken out and stay blonde so stay tuned to find out!
