What's in your head

Cutie...
Plaid Shirt/Leather Bag - Vintage
Creepers - Underground
Lace Scalloped Shorts - Free People
Nirvana Tee - Ebay/DIY
Jewellery - Ebay/Vintage/Markets/DIY

I haven't worn a plaid shirt in so long, and the weather was not quite warm enough to just wear this tee, so I opted for this shirt instead of a cardigan/denim jacket. I think that plaid shirts with a tee underneath is timeless, it just adds something a bit different to the outfit. 

I love this t-shirt from ebay, it is really thin, and I stretched it so that the stitching splits - sounds weird, but it makes the shirt a little baggier and more distressed-like, which I love. I just wish I bought it in a size bigger.

Remember I am selling stuff on Ebay and on Etsy! Check them out!

And the title… 




I love Disclosure, this is from their new 2012 ep 'The Face', you should totally check it out. Their old ep 'The Law of One' is awesome, too. The track 'Blue You' is so so good. If I make it to Bestival this year, I will get to see them!

Fitzpleasure

Jeans - American Apparel
Lace Top - American Apparel
Doc's (Ox-Blood/Cherry)- Vintage
Bag/Belt/Majority of jewellery - Vintage
Rings - Cayman/Flea Markets
Black Bralet - Urban Outfitters

Apologies for the lack of photographs, it was windy as hell so the majority of them resulted in hair… hair just everywhere. You know how it is. 

This was actually the first time that I had worn my doc's since I have returned from Cayman as I couldn't take them because they would probably take up like 1/10 of my luggage weight allowance. I have just realised how much I missed them, it is a nice change from creepers (which we both know - I wear waaay too much!). 

Anyway, I think after I have sold some things on Ebay (check out what i'm selling here, something might take your fancy!), I might invest in a black pair. I have always wanted some but just never really got round to buying any that don't kill my feet. I remember I bought the perfect pair from a vintage shop a while back, and I wore them once and they completely messed up my feet, but then when I invested in these ox-blood beauties I realised not all doc's are the same, you just have to be careful!

This is just a simple outfit, I have some new goodies on the way and for some reason when I know some things are arriving in the post that I know will contribute to my new favourite outfit(s), I find it difficult to make my current outfits innovative, anyone else have the same problem? Maybe it is just me haha… 

Also the title of the post and look on lookbook.nu is due to this amazing album, which I can not stop listening to! Check it out.



P.s. Don't forget to check out my Etsy shop here!

POLYVORE

Obsessed with Polyvore at the moment. Here are the sets that I have made so far...fruity

starry

dimepiece

black & grey

x-ray

gimme

daisy gone goth

splash

floral leather

frankenstein

garden goth

garden goth by deciphering-dreams featuring studded jewelry

 There is something quite therapeutic about making sets on Polyvore… Maybe it is being able to style outfits that you would love to wear but obviously can't… It's like a new kind of window shopping, apart from most of the clothes you can't get instant access to, which is a good thing definitely, otherwise my bank balance would be in the negative ha. But I would seriously love some of these outfits/love to style these on people.

LUA IS A BABE and its my birthdaaaaaay

Yer people should be making me cake but I like making cakes so I made some. Vanilla cupcakes actually. Sooo tasty. Then I made some homemade miso soup, doesn't look very appetising but it really is, I was quite proud of it actually. Healthy too… mmmm seaweed.


Also, look what I found in Topshop. I couldn't believe it ha, love you Lua! So amazing… If I had money I totally would have bought it. Excuse my face. Haha…

the warmth

Trying to get little Myrtle to say hi…
Awwwh there she is
Acid Wash Overalls - Vintage via Etsy
Creepers - Underground
Nirvana Tee - Ebay & DIY added studs
Bag/Jewellery - Vintage

Apologies for the bright/fuzzy pictures, my camera doesn't seem to like too much sunlight, and I am not the best at editing photographs ha. 

I got these overalls (overalls, or dungarees? Who knows…) from Etsy, literally my new favourite item in my wardrobe. Actually a birthday present from my mum, an early one that is - my birthday is on saturday! But I couldn't wait to wear them ha. I said I would update more, but truth is I haven't really been up to things worth taking outfit photos for! Still trying to look for a job, and apart from that i'v just been hanging around with friends not really wearing anything very interesting! I am off to birmingham tomorrow so maybe I will take some more photos then! :) I would take them everyday, truth is i'm a little shy and i'm still trying to get used to seeing myself all over this webpage ha, I love fashion too much not to do it! Don't get me wrong I do enjoy it, hopefully it will wear off soon.

Hope everyone has had a lovely day, it has been super sunny here - hence the title of the post, but mainly named after this song by one of my favourite bands, its amazing and reminds me so much of Cayman. Man I am missing that place. x

P.s. I am going to start putting my DIY items on Etsy on Friday! So keep a look out :)
