Outfit Of The Day | Wednesday Addams



Shirt - Boyfriends
Jumper - H&M (old)
Dress - ASOS
Necklace - DIY
Pumpkin - DIY
Knife - Kitchen

Bit of a spooky-esque outfit post today - Wednesday Addams style! If you follow me on Instagram, you will have already seen my Halloween outfit but here it is in a little more detail. 
This was what I wore to work, I was so excited when I found out we were allowed to dress up. It was a pretty last minute costume idea, as I only found out the day before Halloween, but I think it turned out really well, and I received a lot of compliments on it - which was nice! The dress I have had for ages, it was perfect for this outfit as it is slightly baggy so it meant the shirt underneath wasn't too bulky. Originally I was going to wear just the shirt and dress but it wasn't quite Wednesday Addams enough and remembered this H&M jumper. I'm not going to lie I was absolutely boiling, I work as a waitress so you can imagine how hot I was, rushing about! The shoes are my fave recent purchase, you can't really see them in these photos but they are the chunky patent brogues from Primark. I bloody love them! I had seen them on people's blogs and Instagram and knew I had to have them. They were the last pair of Size 7's so obviously they were destined to be mine. The best part? When I got to the till I mentioned that they had a few defects so the cashier said she could knock off 10%, and when she scanned them she said they were coming up as £6! (originally £14) So I got them for £5.40, deffo my bargain purchase as of late. I think they worked really well for this outfit as they're a bit school-like (they did hurt my feet after a while though so I had to change into my work pumps - fashion is so painful sometimes!). I finished the outfit with the pumpkin I carved for work and a kitchen knife - obviously. Please note the knife was just for photo purposes, I didn't serve people with a knife hanging out of my hand, that would be too much! Haha. 
So that's it guys, what do you think? Did any of you guys get to dress up for work?

Outfit Of The Day | You Can Go Your Own Way


Duster coat - Primark
Black Camisole Top - Newlook (old)
DIY Ripped Jeans -  H&M (old)
Beaded Handbag - Primark
Cut Out Shoes - Primark
Necklace - Urban Cult
Hat - Primark
Rings - Primark

So this is an outfit I put together the other day. I am absolutely in love with this duster style kimono from Primark. I love the tailored look it brings to an outfit, whilst remaining quite laid back.
The print is sooooo pretty! It makes a nice change to my usual 'all black' without going too far away from home! The best part - it was only £7 in the sale... I nearly died; that's a lot of material for £7!
Obviously, the kimono had to be paired with my trusty DIY ripped jeans (I begrudge paying £10 extra on a pair of jeans with a rip in!) and my cut-out man shoes from Primark that have featured on here before. Still completely obsessed with them. Finally, I own a fedora after searching for one for so long! I have quite a small head, so had trouble finding any that fit me. Thankfully, Primark saved the day with this budget-friendly one, which only cost me £7. 
Now onto the bag: has anyone else seen these gorgeous, beautifully detailed, beaded handbags in Primark? I was quite taken aback to be honest. So much work has gone into them its unreal, and the quality is perfect (not bad for £10). It's the perfect handbag for date nights or drinks out with friends! They have so many different ones I found it hard to pick. Originally I bought this one and a beaded daisy one, but couldn't justify owning two so returned the latter. Sucks to be sensible sometimes!

Outfit of the day | Yin and Yang


Dress - H&M via eBay
Crotchet Kimono - New Look
Ankle Boots - H&M
Duffle bag - Primark
Floral Crown - Topshop
Jewellery - Primark
Sunglasses - eBay

Hey guys! Sorry to yet again start a post with "weather talk" but the sun came out and surprised me, so I obviously made the most of it with a summery outfit post! 
I bought this amazing yin yang print dress from eBay the other day and couldn't wait to show you guys. It is a very 'me' dress, the print is so 90's, and as you all know I LOVE all things 90's inspired! 
I styled it with my New Look crotchet kimono, Topshop floral crown and embroidered duffle bag from Primark. 

Apologies my posts haven't been as frequent, I have been mega busy working and carbooting on my days off! Hopefully I will be able to blog more often soon, as my hours at work will start to die down.
Hope you are all well, and thanks for reading! xx

Outfit Post | Summertime Sadness

   

Dress - H&M
Kimono - New Look
Cleated Sandals - Primark
Floral Crown - Primark
Jewellery - Primark

So judging by the torrential rain we've had in the last few days I think its fair to say that us Brits have just about had it for summer (I'm lucky I took these outfit pics before that happened!). 
I couldn't resist posting about this amazing dress I bought from H&M the other day. It is such a gorgeous print which reminds me of the bandannas I used to wear in my Rockabilly days, not to mention the fit is spot on and I loooooove the cut out detailing. I thought I would go all out festival style one last time by adding my New Look kimono and Primark floral crown for a bit of a colour pop. 
The shoes I picked up in Primark for a small £14, I originally ordered these from Asos but unfortunately they just looked too clumpy on my feet (damn you size 7 feet!). These however are a perfect fit, are super comfortable and a damn sight cheaper! I also bought some other bits and bobs from Primark which I will no doubt be showing you all soon, they have so much nice stuff in at the moment!

So that's it guys, what do you think? I would also like to welcome my new followers, I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I do writing it!

Outfit Post | Back In Black



Bowler Hat - Topshop
Dog Bite T-shirt/Dress - River Island
Leather Skirt - H&M (old but similar here)
Leather Jacket - Oh My Love
Ankle Boots - H&M
Necklace - H&M
Duffle Bag - Primark

Hey guys, here's a little outfit post from the other day. I do love an all black outfit! With weather as changeable as the UKs (even in summer) black still has its place - thank god! This is an outfit for those "its sunny 30% of the day but mostly cloudy" days. 

I love this dog bite tee that I bought from River Island last year, its actually a dress but I like to wear it as a top and I think it looks perfect paired with leather. The bowler hat is my go to at the moment, its a great way to accessorize an outfit without trying to hard and can be worn all year round. 

What do you guys think of my black summer outfit? Does anybody else like to wear black in the summer?

Outfit Post | Bohemian Vibes




Dress - H&M
Sleeveless Crochet Top - Primark
Studded Duffle Bag - Primark
Ankle boots - H&M
Rings - Primark
Tattoo Choker & Bracelet - ebay

Its absolutely boiling hot at the moment and I am having my usual "what do I wear, its too hot for anything" drama. 
I found this lovely dress in H&M a couple of weeks ago and I love it. I am obsessed with anything mandala/native print so this dress was a complete must have, its perfect for summer and can be layered up with tights and a leather jacket in winter. I styled it with my sleeveless crotchet top from Primark which I featured in my last post, my H&M ankle boots and my new (ish) studded duffle bag which is the perfect size to carry daily essentials in! 

I hope your all enjoying this lovely weather, unfortunately I only get 1 day off a week so don't get much time to enjoy the weather (hence my lack of outfit posts). Do any of you have dramas with what to wear in summer? Please leave a comment below, I would love to hear your thoughts on summer dressing!

Outfit Post | Oh I do like to be beside the seaside


Peace Top - Topshop (Old)
Denim Shorts - Topshop (Old)
Long Crochet Top - Primark
Faux Birks - H&M
Leather Rucksack - Primark
Bowler Hat - Topshop (Old)

Another festival boho style outfit again! I found this lovely long sleeveless crochet fringe top in Primark the other day for £12 (yes I broke the spending ban - woops), but I just couldn't resist. Anything with a fringe goes down well with me and its another bum hiding addition to my wardrobe - perfect.

The top I have had for a few years now, at one point I was going to ebay it, but I am so glad that I didn't as its perfect for summer. I finished the outfit with my trusty bowler, leather rucksack and faux birks from H&M.

Apologies for the state of my face, I went out without any make-up on and had had a restless nights sleep the night before as my pet rabbit was ill. Thankfully after a trip to the vets to get him some medicine he is perking up! Anyway hope your all having a good week!

Outfit Post | You've got the music, you've got the music in you




Crop top - Motel
Kimono - New Look
Shorts - Topshop (old)
Bowler Hat - Topshop (old)
Belt - Primark

Hey guys, here's what I wore for a day out in Bournemouth on Friday. I am so obsessed with kimonos at the moment (I may have mentioned!) I just feel like there the answer to all my prayers where showing my bum is concerned. Plus they are great for layering and keeping cool on a hot day, cos lets be honest I can't keep wearing a leather jacket, through summer - that would be madness! 

I love this moon, sun and stars crop top from Motel, I bought it a few months back but hadn't worn it yet. Its super light and I am obsessed with the print, it looks perfect with the kimono for a hippie style vibe. I think I'm just going to dress like I am at a constant festival this summer! Why not!

Anyway hope your all enjoying the sunshine and having a lovely weekend!
