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.

A Complete Fashion Experiment...Please Don't Try At Home

So i got so bored on my half term holiday that i decided i would basically update a t-shirt i own and have never worn.  Simply because i knew it would entertain me for at least 45 minutes.  This is the starting product, a strange fitting, mildly bat-winged t-shirt with a very awesome Aztec themed print...

I know just awful right.  Well i  must be honest...it doesn't get much better than the Roman Army skirt like top i created.  I just loved the print so much i couldn't bare to get rid of it and i wanted to have a bit of fun.  I do think that the best description for it though is a fanny flap if i am totally 100% honest.  Decide for yourself...

Please ignore the state of my bedroom just a little bit of a mess.

I was brave today, I wore floral tights!

So i thought i would be a little crazy and start with my first layer of clothing.  This is a really old dress i own from Primark but is comfy on those days when you just think...meh!!

These are my lovely tights i got for Christmas not sure where they are from and they have pretty pink flowers on.  Honestly looked at them and thought...really florals but now i think yay...Florals!!  I completely forgot to take a close up of them being the silly sausage that i am!!

 This is my beautiful elephant necklace purchased for me by my bestest bud ever Poppy!!  I believe it is from Mallorca.  The paint splash jacket as you see below is from H&M and i love it!!

So this is my next layer with my H&M jacket, love it!!  It has a waterfall front with a short back.

I thought that maybe i would take a close up of my face for a special treat whilst wearing my glasses which remind me so dearly of my late grandma Googie.  You did read that correctly we used to call her Googie.  I thought you should see my make-up, i love a big flick at the sides, but they are not too big today since i had so little time to get ready for school and keep it a secret but actually ended up doing my make-up using a little compact mirror, sat on the toilet.  

The next layer is a green cardie which i inherited from my Granny.  Love it, it is so big and cosy and comfy that you would have to tempt me with a very very large chocolate cake  and i mean humungous chocolate cake to stop me wearing it.  

My beautiful leather jacket is the final layer to my outfit which has demonstrated my obsession with layering my clothes.  I think i am actually starting to go a little over the top, to the point that somedays i will walk past a window and think oh crikey oh don't half look like the long lost twin of the Michelin Man.  (Google him if you have never heard of him.  Then you will understand instantly.)  Me and my headphones, you should know we are inseperable.  As well as my Amy Winehouse inspired make-up flicky things.  So scary you can see all my pores in my face and they are huge.  

 This is a postcard i found in an Oxfam and love and have stuck up on my wall in my study.  Reminds me everyday that you are even more amazing when you are just yourself.  

I thought i would attempt to put a french plait into my exceptionally short bob and so far appears to have worked and as i currently type it has been in my hair for about two hours and is still looking pretty good.  Only thing is i had to put two bright pink bobby pins in to keep it from sticking out to the side like some demented unicorn horn.  

 HAHA this is the moment when i was trying to take a photo with the timer and it dropped from my chest of drawers but took the photo as i realised and went into a state of shock.  

 The three layers together, sorry four if you include the dress.  Love how they blend and clash, well not clash but don't really go together.  

These are my beautiful necklaces the slightly dirty silver/grey one is the locket my Daddy gave me with a micture of my mama in it.  And the one above was my Mama's and is the symbol/sign things for the Millenium.  Under my dress i was also wearing a black and white stripe top.  Was very chilly today as you may be able to tell.

Such a Stud!!

I just had to share with you my passion for studded clothing at the moment.  I think it is turning into a strange obsession.  I just simply cannot get enough of any clothing with some kind of stud forced into it.  Don't even start me on a studded leather jacket, oh my that is just the pinnacle, but i just can't seem to find one and my leather jacket is just too expensive to do a bit of DIY.  I think my sister, who bought it for my birthday one year, would actually go mental.  

I am not sure, but this man appears seem to me to look a lot like Heath Ledger (poor soul) except i don't ever remember him having so many tattoos, probably a man that just looks very similar.  Awesome picture anyway and where do i get a studded denim waistcoat like that?  Someone put me out of my misery!?

I am just guessing but i think these are Jeffrey Campbell shooooes, which i absolutely love and will soon spend a small fortune on i am sure.  

These are the most amazing Underground shoes produced so far but i haven't yet managed to find a place where they sell them which is driving me mad ince they are so unbelievably incredible i almost cried the first time i saw them!!

Now i have been inspired previously to use a spiked necklace/bracelet you get on a leather strap to DIY decorate a pair of amazing heels i have and these shoes with their spiked socks have just made me think YES i must do this.  But i think i need to get my butt down to Camden Market to find the perfect spike jewellery to use, as it would be tragic to do it all and then get it all wrong.  

Now Lady Gaga is the Queen of studded clothing and i have found a million images of her wearing some incredible studded jackets, as in her Telephone Music Video.  However this studded bra just shouted Studs and simplicity at me which i find so hard to imagine going together, and taught me that it is possible.  

Hope you liked.  Please leave your comments and Follow if you love.
