Standing in the way of control...





(Dress-Missguided  Kimono-Topshop  Boots-Vintage  Necklace-River Island)

Mad crazy week and finally got chance to post this which I did a week or so again. As I'm sure we all agree Missguided is the go to site for low price on trend gear, perfect for end of the month, low bank balance bargains to freshen up the wardrobe. I'm sure lots of people are similar to me in that if I don't buy a single item of clothing for five or so days I get the itch and it's like I need my fix - even if I am disgustingly poor, I have to have a hit, be it a 10 pound 2nd hander off eBay or a dress from the new Kate Bosworth collection at Topshop (Opps this happened late last night!!) 

Love velvet, especially in this electric cobalt blue kinda shade, I'm big on dresses I can just slip on with a pair of tights and not have to think too much about. I saw a girl in Topshop trying on this kimono and it looked so beautiful on her I had to copy, it's nice for a day/night transition piece. 

Scruffy old booties are the best!

Nightmares are the stuff of reality...

Yesterday I felt as fresh as a daisy which is a rarity for a Sunday morning so I went for a walk down the canal which was so lovely - the sun was beaming and all the little barge boats were out about and I said 'Morning' to about 12 strangers which makes me proper happy! 

Oh and before I ramble on the quality of these images are so bad I'm ashamed but my camera is playing  up at the minute so I had to use my iPhone and you can tell... so could anybody recommend a good blogging camera please please please because failing getting mine fixed I need to reinvest quick sticks! 

Not only did I wear this jumper all day yesterday, I wore it all evening and I am still wearing it as I sit and type now so urm yeah I like it. If I'm totally honest when I'm at home I spend the majority of my time in big oversized knits so this one is quite the perfect addition to my collection, it's super comfy, super huge and the skull & crossbones give it a little bit of a grungy edge which I likeee, it also comes in black which I like equally (if not a tad more!) 

I have claimed my dad's shirt as my own - last week I wore it so many times, I genuinely think everybody needs an oversized white shirt in their lives - clearly most people will use their boyfriends but if your a spinster like me heyyy dad! Haha.
