ROCK AND ROLL

ROCK AND ROLL




Vintage t shirt
$41 - jukupop.com
I love this tee. I love band tee's (providing the person wearing it listens to the band) and this one is very cute.


Leather jacket
$290 - topshop.com
I am obsessed with biker jackets - I have four and counting. I love this Topshop one. I love the fitted cut and I think it would look amazing with anything.



Skinny jeans
topshop.com
Skinny jeans are such a wardrobe staple for me and I like these one looks really hot.



Reiss
reiss.com
These ankle boots are so gorgeous! They shake up the outfit and stop it from being too casual.



Chanel
lindelepalais.com
Chanel bags are just the best. Again, like with the boots, this makes the outfit more dressy.



American apparel
americanapparel.net
I love chunky gold hoops! Can't help it.



Michael kors watch
asos.com
This watch is going on my christmas list. It's so hot.



Rimmel lipstick
asos.com
I had to have some colour! Red lips are my fave.



So what do we think? I LOVE the whole outfit, and will probably we wearing something very similiar at some point this week. XOXO

AMERICAN APPAREL SCRUNCHIES


Hey so these arrived a few days ago and I felt the need to share. These two beauties are my latest purchase from American Apparel. How amazing?! They are very very cute. I just saw them on the website and thought 'how come people don't wear scrunchies anymore?'. I used to love a good scrunchie! Naturally I had to order them straight away. They look great with either a high ponytail or a topknot, and I think they will add a fun and unusual twist to a look. XOXO

PEOPLE ARE STRANGE

 
TEE - TEE AND CAKE AT TOPSHOP, LEATHER JACKET & SCARF - TOPSHOP

Been a bit of a miserable week. I've been quite unwell and the awful weather has just made this week feel so rubbish. I wore my beautiful Jim Morrison tee yesterday which I love wearing because it reminds of when I was little. When I was a kid the Doors was always playing in the house and there was a short period of time when I thought Jim was actually my dad. Or more so, I thought my dad and him were the same person. They just looked the same in my eyes okay? The title of the post comes from one of my favourite Doors songs that I remember listening to all the time. I wore my top with a black skirt, my leather biker and a cosy leopard print scarf. XOXO

BURBERRY PRORSUM S/S 2013






 
I might seem a little bit late to the 'Fashion Week' party, but I just have been procrastinating for a while on which collections to sit and talk about. Seriously, there are just so many! I've narrowed it down to a couple of collections which I found to be my favourites - so far anyway. Burberry Prorsum surprised me with a completely stunning collection at London Fashion Week. Colour was very much ON. It was a beautiful rainbow of rich and bright jewel tones and metallic fabric mixed with classic shapes and pieces. The Burberry staple - the trench coat - was revamped to become more youthful and fun. My key piece was the turquoise metallic trench coat with a tie around waist. Other features that I love include the pencil skirts and the gorgeous capes. FROW included the beautiful faces of Dita Von Teese, Dev Patel, Victoria Pendleton and Harry Styles. XOXO

LANA DEL REY FOR H&M


This is me having a 10 minute break from writing an awful English essay. I'm so excited by this new collection by H&M, inspired by Lana's retro and feminine style. It is full of so many sweet and lady-like pieces. I particularly love the green chunky jumper, the printed leggings, the white feather mini skirt and the big jewelled earrings. I have just ordered the light pink jumper Lana is wearing in the video and in the top picture too. It is just the cutest thing. I cannot wait to have it in my life.

 
This advert has been everywhere recently and it is so gorgeous. It is so beautifully shot and just as stunning as one of Lana's own music videos. Also, her cover of 'Blue Velvet' is adorable and currently playing on repeat on my iPod. XOXO

WEDGE SNEAKERS

 
These are my new favourite shoes! They are amazing! I spent ages looking for some wedge sneakers and found these at Boohoo. They were a really decent price at £30 so I snapped them up straight away. I was a little bit worried before they arrived that they might be impractical for everyday wear, but I found that they are so comfortable and easy to walk in. I've worn them so many times at college and for a full day at work and they didn't hurt at all or cause any problems. They go with everything and I will practically be living in them the next few months. I love them so much! XOXO

MULBERRY AUTUMN/WINTER 2012 CAMPAIGN

 
I've been so tired and busy getting back into the whole school routine that I haven't blogged in a bit. It's just a quick one today I'm afraid, but I will be doing a lot more soon promise! So I was looking through some magazines a few days ago, and while doing so I had to stop to admire these stunning new Mulberry campaign shots. They are inspired by 'Where The Wild Things Are' and are so beautiful and soft and surreal. Lindsey Wixson plus giant furry monsters equals a completely adorable and gorgeous campaign. XOXO

BLACK HALF MOON CLAWS

 
I adored these nails! This was my second attempt at half moon nails (see my first here) and this time they turned out perfect. I used curved stickers and by doing so this created a clean line and made the whole thing really easy. I think they looked fierce and slick and I think they were just the best. I am sad to say that this is the last of the super long nails for a while, because I had to get rid of them a few days ago. They were making writing at school impossible and just needed to go. I was so gutted! :( I'll wait until the next school break before I do them again but I will be trying it with false nails because they are a million times quicker :) XOXO

FIRST DAY BACK AT SCHOOL

SMOCK & JEGGINGS - BOTH TOPSHOP
 
BACK TO SCHOOL!!... :| Eugh I've only been back two days and I already feel like I need a break. I can't tell yet whether it is just that I am incredibly sleep deprived, but I am feeling really SO awful at the moment. Emotionally I am all over the shop. School is probably the easiest and best aspect of my current life. I love that I am back with some of my close friends and getting started with my final year. I wore this on Thursday (I think, I am losing track of days) and it has been pretty hot the last few days so this top was ideal as it was really light. I also love it because it is so pretty. XOXO

WEEKEND IN LONDON

CROPPED JUMPER, BELT & SHORTS - ALL TOPSHOP
 
I feel like I haven't been on here in ages (four days is a long time) but I have been so tired and busy that writing has been the last thing that I wanted to do. This is from Saturday when I had work all day and then went to stay in London for a few days. I went just to see my grandparents and my uncle and auntie because I don't get to see them very much and I miss them loads. My grandad and I spent most of the time kicking back and watching the Paralympics. I loved seeing my family again because recently I realised how lucky I am to have these people in my life, and I am making it my new goal to spend as much time with them as possible. XOXO

LADY GAGA FOR V MAGAZINE

 
I love Lady Gaga and I love super-long stiletto nails. Naturally this article had my full attention. Gaga writes a column for V Magazine don't cha know? And in her latest, Gaga spills on the importance of proper nails. Gaga, being the style guru that she is, had plenty of advice for us mere mortals on the latest nail trends. Above, Gaga has a set of some her favourite trends, including 3D nail art and textured nails too (sorry about the tiny writing). She also had an intelligent set of points on why manicures are essential. I mean, I didn't need converting but sure I'll play along. To read these points and her article in full, click here. XOXO
