Xmas Feeling

 
Jumper - Topshop
Hat - ASOS
Necklace - ASOS

There is only one thing I can determine from these photos and that's that I need a tan! So badly! 

This is my xmas jumper this year. I know it's doesn't necessarily look very Christmasy, but it's a kind of green colour (it's more green in real life) and that's good enough for me. I'm ashamed to say that this is only green thing in my wardrobe, so it feel good to have a spark of colour - especially for the holidays. I will most likely be wearing this on Christmas day too.

I'm supposed to be getting on with a load of coursework I've got but instead I've been having Harry Potter marathons with my flat mates. Just imagine me curling up on the sofa in my Christmas onesie (quite possibly the best form of warm clothing I have every purchased) crying at the fact that Harry Potter is over! How sad, but I am reading the books for the first time so in my head they aren't completely over yet.

Hope everyone has had a great day!

Cape

 
Cape - ASOS
Jumper - Next
Trousers - H&M

Just wanted to show you guys this amazing cape I got from ASOS. It's probably the best money I have ever spent because it's practical, and looks amazing. I usually through it over a jumper when I'm indoors or just running to the shops.

I bought this jumper when I was home last week from Next. I don't usually buy things from Next (unless it's PJ's) but this really stood out for me. I love the texture and colours. I'm really into mixing textures atm, so I'm always wearing wool type jumpers with my leathery trousers! 

I am also currently living in my faux leather trousers, they keep me so warm! Perfect for a city like Aberdeen.

Hope everyone has been having a good week!

Victorias Secret


 
Pictures from Vogue.com

I don't know if you guys knew this or not, but I am a HUGE fan of Victorias Secret. I first discovered them when I was 15 in Florida, and I remember thinking, 'this store is so cool...' and ever since then, I have loved the brand. The models are also amazing, what I would do to be one of those girls!

They had their 2011 fashion show last Thursday. These shows are always amazing and so fun to watch. They really put on a great performance. Jay Z, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj and Maroon 5 all performed along side 38 Victorias Secret Angels.

I have taken a great liking to Miranda Kerr, who is married to Orlando Bloom and is one of the Angels. I think her body is amazing and I have a slight crush on her husband...

If you guys have time, take a look at all the pics HERE.

Have a great weekend (:

(Same dress, different colour)

Hey guys!

Now I know that my birthday isn't until February, but it is very rare that I fall in love with a dress. The first dress is the one that I fell in love with. It's my perfect 21st dress! It's exactly what I can imagine myself wearing, BUT, they don't have in my size atm ): I really hope that they can get it in soon!

The other two are by a brand called AQUA. I've never heard of it before until I saw them on ASOS. They look really good quality, like the Warehouse dress, and I love the shape of them. I think if I bought either of them they would be in white. I've got my eye on a white 21st dress for some reason! I never wear white, so this is very rare for me.

I have also noticed that I have recently discovered a love for back detail on dresses. I am currently hunting out one for my flat mates birthday with a fancy back. I'll post you when I have found one!

What do you guys think of these dresses?

Also, 11/11/11 scary stuff, but needs to be remembered. I always feel quite strange on remembrance days, although I don't know anyone who was in the war, I just don't like the thought of troops still in Afghanistan.

It's Friday guys! So have a great weekend!

 Jumper - Topshop
Jeans - Miss Selfridge
Ring - ASOS

Hey guys! I bought this jumper in summer in preparation for the colder days. It's not very thick, so I have to wear something long sleeved underneath it. The only thing that bugs me about it is the elastic around the bottom. I don't particularly like things that cling to me, but I have managed to cope!
I'm not sure if you can tell on my nail varnish (poor quality again, sorry!) but my thumb has been painted in gold dust. I only put it on my thumb because I wasn't sure if I'd like it, but, aha, I LOVE it. I think it's going to be what I wear throughout Christmas! I borrowed it from my flat mate Erica and she got it from Accessorize. I never even realised that Accessorize done beauty products, but I'm going to have to nab some before the holidays! It's called Gold Dust and is so beautiful on.

Anyways, it's almost Friday!

Hope you guys had a great day (:

Hedgehog

 
Shirt - Topshop
T-Shirt - River Island

Hey guys! So I just realised (stupidly) that I could use my webcam to take pics (: Also, apologies for the bad quality!

Today I feel like my look is more painter then fashionable! I bought this t-shirt when I was in London in summer and absolutely fell in love with it. Hedgehogs are my favourite animal so it was a must for me. I am currently at home for a week, and have very little clothes with me! It was pretty cold today and this painter denim shirt was really all that was available to me. But I actually really like this look!

Hope you guys had a great day (:

Elizabeth Olsen

 

You know who I am absolutely loving at the moment? Elizabeth Olsen. She is so chic, and classy. I don't know about you guys, but I find it kind of bizarre because she is Ashley and Mary-Kate's sister, she is like their double. It's quite strange looking at her, but she is so beautiful.

Now I haven't seen any movies she has been in, but I'm really looking forward to seeing Martha Marcy May Marlene in which she stars in. It looks quite raw, and very real. Probably the perfect movie for me to see!
I'm at home now guys, so unfortunately I don't think I will be blogging clothes due to the fact I have no camera cable! (I'm useless, I know) And I also have an essay due soon which I should be cracking on with!

Anyways, it's Friday so hope you guys have a great weekend!

Necklace - ASOS
Bracelet - Gift

Hey guys, today has been a very productive day for me. I got loads of work done and have packed half of my suitcase for leaving tomorrow (I'm going home for the first time in aaaages).

These trousers are a gem! I saw them and had to buy them. I never try anything on instore unless it's super expensive, so I was slightly worried about how tight they would be. To my delight, they were perfect and they slightly loosen up after you have worn them once or twice.

This jumper is one my dad bought me because I had a lack of winter clothes in my wardrobe. It's so cozy and not itchy at all (I get so paranoid when buying winter jumper because the ones that make you itch hate my skin!)

I'm off to see Paranormal Activity 3 tonight with the girls...wish me luck!

Happy Halloween!

 
Tim Burton
Rob Zombie

Happy Halloween guys!

As you know, I had my Halloween party on Saturday night, and it was awesome! Such a success. I will post pictures up when I finally get round to loading them on my computer.

I don't know about you guys, but I usually have Halloween night routine. I don't go out and get ridiculously drunk, I sit it with some snacks and watch Halloween the Rob Zombie version. Has to be one of my favourite movies! He is a genius when it comes to horror movies. He makes everything so raw and true to the nature of the movie. He is, in my eyes, an unsung hero of horror. I also love Tim Burton movies, especially Nightmare Before Christmas, which I actually find quite weird to watch unless it's Christmas time haha.

Halloween has to be one of my favourite holidays as I love being scared, what do you guys do for Halloween? I really miss trick or treating to be honest!

Anyways, we are supposed to be going to see Paranormal Activity 3 tomorrow unless we chicken out (which is possible as we are three girls in a house alone!)

Have a great night guys!

Hey guys, so sorry for the lack of blogging this week! 

Last Friday my friend from Dundee came over for a surprise visit. It was so sweet of her and we out for a boogie! Anyways, after that I appeared to have contracted the cold. Fantastic! And I've had it all week, so I've been hiding in my room since.

My other friend always surprised me on Tuesday night by arriving at my door! My friends are amazing, I swear. So I wasn't up for going out, but we had to do something, so we went to the cinema to see Contagion. It was very good, I recommend you go see it! We also went for a couple of drinks after (probs a huge mistake cause I woke up feeling worse!)
We are hosting a Halloween party tomorrow night so tonight I am medicating myself back to health and watching scary movies! There is a boy in the house, so I wouldn't be watching them otherwise!

Anyways, have an awesome Friday and I'll post you a sneak preview of my Halloween outfit tomorrow!

P.S. this pic was taken on Wed at Frankie and Bennies.

Study Mode

 Jumper and Skirt - Topshop

These are my study clothes! Yes, today I have been studying to the max, although I don't necessarily have anything to study for. I am trying to keep on top of things. 

My house, atm, is ridiculously cold because we are poor students! So I have been piling on the clothes. Underneath my skirt I am wearing two pairs of tights plus socks!

Anyways, I don't have much else to discuss! All my time is filled with my studies and Harry Potter (I'm on book four now :D).

Hope you are all well and it's almost Friday guys!
