How many shades of pink...??













Bought this dress the other day for £12 in the sale at Dorothy Perkins along with two others.  I was on a hunt for a perfect, comfortable dress, the kind you always want to wear and have to restrain yourself from wearing everyday.  Well this is one of those with its super comfy elastic waistband, it gives my curvy figure instant shape without having to fuss over a belt.  But most of all the colour is just divine.  I don't know how to describe, maybe a red wine maroon.  
I was wearing three gorgeous shades of pink, my dress, my shoes and my pink and punchy Mac lipstick i got for christmas ages ago and wear continuously for random periods each year.  I absolutely love it.  

I also went a little mad whilst taking the photos, that day i was feeling extremely energetic.  Oh and my gorgeous slightly 80's hair day was what topped it all off i think.  You know when you whack your hair up at home, then take it down to go out and realise that it has gone wild and that now you have to keep that hairstyle...that was one of those mornings.  Except i had had that hair style all evening and all night in bed so i ended up looking like Big Bird (from Sesame Street) (look hime up).

An Outfit From The Deep

Got this really basic and exceptionally comfy and i mean beyond comfy dress from Dorothy Perkins this week.  I have been desperate for a nice dress for a little while, you know that kind of staple dress.  Well i ended up buying 3, for £26.75.  Incredible i know, they currently have 25% off for students at the moment.  
 Also i apologise now for the strange grin, i will sort that out for my next outfit photos.  I swear.

Shirt:  Asos
Cardigan: Charity Shop
Tights: M&S (But can also be bought on ASOS)
Spike Necklace: ASOS

 I got these headphones week because my old ones got a little lonely when i didn't use them for a week and decided to break to irritate me.  So found these beasts which are amazing and are House of Marley, oh yes.  These are a product of the great Bob Marley.  Well actually a product of the company who have just named it after him but ssssssh.  They are environmentally friendly and they support the Marley Family charity 1Love.
 Another new dress from Dorothy Pekrins.  £7 with a further 25% off.  You shall definitely be seeing it some time soon.  

 These is a seriously vintage bag that my sister unearthed the other day and said i could have because she is a little too old to walk out with a green striped tassel hippy bag.  I really didn't care much about her overacted misery and took it with an exceptionally large grin.  Well i said thank you and then jumped for freaking joy.  
I have only just realised how many books i actually have and have not bothered to read.  I bet you are now thinking the exact same thing.  I think i justify it by thinking everyone else does it too.  I just can't control myself when i am stood in a charity shop that sells really modern literature for 50p a book.  Blows my mind.
