Cocktail Rings and the Moon

Just a quick post to show off my rings (and seeing as i've not worn todays outfit yet, i'll post that too, though it's nothing too interesting).

My Moon Top from Topshop 

and just a bodycon skirt

(when I bought it I thought it was raindrops um oops)

with the same coat...





The rings below are 2 of my absolute favourite. The green cocktail ring that belonged to my mother (but apparently as she grew older her finger grew too big for it omg)

And the gold one - which actually has a branch/tree/bark pattern engraved onto it, belonged to my auntie, and was one of the things i was given when she died. So, naturally, I love it dearly.

wow my hand looks weird.

A Bad Attempt at Summer

I've been away recently at a festival, and also on a British beach holiday with my mother.

As much as i love summer, most of the things i own are in varying shades of navy, grey and black. No one told me these weren't summery colours ~crying~

Today I've been wearing what is possibly THE most summery thing i think I've ever worn yay

I would like to note 2 things:
1) don't worry, my arms are actually the same length - i don't know what happened here.
2) STILL DON'T WORRY. IT IS -moderately- SUMMERIER UNDERNEATH THE JUMPER (yes i am aware everyone owns this H&M jumper in different colours, but i didn't realise this when i bought it over a year ago okay. RIP my sense of style.

Personally, i feel like this is a great achievement.

Midi Tuesday

So I finally gave in and bought a midi skirt today.
Not too rebellious - Black, from Topshop.

I feel my colour palette is all Blue and Black.

And if you wanted to see the lace top in more detail...

The jumper has an embellished hiker, and is from Pop Boutique.

If you have any ideas on what to wear the midi skirt with, that would be great, and i'd love to hear your suggestions!

Black Lace and Stone-Washed Grey.

        So today the weather has been absolutely freezing and rainy so, naturally, i wear a lace top.

Today is the first time in years I have worn this top, and I've actually kind of missed it - might end up wearing this more often

My stonewashed grey skirt is a new ish item actually from my ultimate fave:

~~~~~***~Urban Outfitters ~***~~---

These are also two separate necklaces, a long pendant with 'luck' written on it, from Accessorize

And also the gold choker-type short necklace, which I actually think I got from Next.

Although I rarely, rarely, rarely go in either of these shops, I find myself wearing these two purchases quite often.




--I've also been shopping today, and I shall post what I've bought later on today.

Bridget Jones' Diary

The sun has come out yey.

It's my mother's birthday next Saturday so I was in Manchester with my friend buying her a present.

I ended up getting her a Rod Stewart Album, Bridget Jones' Diary and a box of chocolates.
(I got the last 2 for my own benefit)



Seeing as I have very little to write about, here's what I was wearing today.

The tones of this outfit are much more tame, and i adore my skirt from Topshop (my all time favourite shop)

                                                                                 


I love my coat (also Topshop). And even though it was really quite warm I wore it anyway, cause I'm just not wearing enough patterns otherwise, basically.

I would also like to apologise for the quality of my writing and how, so far - 2 days in, this blog has nothing other than clothing on it.

Also, the card I got my mum is pretty great:

as it's the holidays, i'm going to try and post everyday if i can - and with any luck I'll think of more varied content.
