Maxi skirt & emo bracelets

Hey, it's (insert your name) right? Welcome back. Sorry to have abandoned you for a week but the joys of end of year exams have joined me. I know lots of you have had actual real GCSEs or other exams too, so I'm sure you're in a similar state of procrastination. In other news, this giant skeleton-like branch fell from a neighboring tree into our garden and I thought it would be interesting to shoot an outfit with.


 
This is my new signature hairstyle I think. I've sort of stolen it from Lucy in my favourite anime Fairy Tail, which if you don't watch I totally recommend. I sometimes wear a ribbon around the little side pony too, which definitely adds to the anime character effect.


 I have been loving my new maxi skirt lately. It's so comfortable and easy to wear. It's oddly empowering and instantly makes you look taller.

Mid ring - Miss selfridge


Heroes shirt - brother's old
Skirt - M&S
Boots - thrifted



Necklace was a gift from my friend Shivani ("necklace?" - how she will respond to reading this) who I don't think even knows I have a blog but hey thanks! It's so pretty and I've been wearing it all the time.


And here are said Emo bracelets next to some dainty flowers because who doesn't love a good contrast? The skull charm one is sort of childish but really reminds me of my very own cliched goth phase. The other black beaded one was a gift from my brother, and if you look closely has all the My Chemical Romance album cover art on each bead. And that is why I call them emo bracelets.

Birthday wishlist

Hello lovelies! My Birthday is coming up (March 5th to be precise) and I thought I would do a wishlist of the moment with a few things I'm loving.



For those of you who don't know (I think in this case that's few) I am obsessed with teddies. When I spotted this vintage sweatshirt on Asos it was love at first sight.



These shoes are so adorable. I basically live in different pairs of black ankle boots so I'm dying for some variety. I've seen a few of my favourite bloggers with similar ones and they always look so simple, fresh and cute. I can see these paired with some tie dye frilly socks.

I feel like this is such a wardrobe staple but I have barely endeavored into Maxi territory. You can layer it for Winter and it would also be fab in Summer on the beach. Also it's on sale for £10! Going to order this soon!





Desperate for a vinyl skirt at the moment, extra brownie points if it's a pastel one. I love the contrasting texture it can add to an outfit.

Franny and Zooey and Will Grayson, Will Grayson

Both of these books have been highly recommended to me. The first by Tavi in her talk at the Opera house and the second by many of my friends. I have so many books I want to read and this is only the start of the list. 

Those are a few things I'm saving for/loving at the moment. Let me know if you find something you think I will like and tweet me HERE because I have been using my twitter a lot lately!
