Another Day of Sun

After spending the first half of my summer working at an amazing summer job, I'm finally getting some sunshine and a holiday. My days now are largely spent by the sea (which is a happy place of mine), but it's not quite as relaxing as I'd hoped. My final year of school is looming frightfully near, as is the storm of university applications and A-levels. I'm trying to establish a balance of doing things to make the next few months easier and also savouring my last days of peace.

Queen of the purple lines








Hey! I'm back in London and I have an outfit post for you! Sweden was good, man those people know design. Seriously even their airports were cool. These photos were taken in the old town with my new Emma Warren Purple lines clutch. I exchanged some emails with Emma about her printed clutches because I thought they were so original and she kindly answered my questions. She takes her clutch print photos on a Diana lomography camera from Urban Outfitters and they are all photos from her travels. In her email she said: 'Lomography brings something different to photography and makes for quite interesting prints for fashion as they are quite often not perfect images! With blurs and double exposure but I think this is what makes them so eye catching and beautiful'. I think that sums it up pretty well! I am so pleased with mine and the quality is great. It comes in the post nicely wrapped with a hand written note which makes it so much more personal. See Emma's Asos Marketplace shop HERE.

As for the rest of my outfit, I picked up this amazing high-low black dress for £3 at the Clothes show live. I kind of feel like a super hero when I wear this, with the solid tights and the crown emblem. I am undecided on my ideal super power though. I draped my brothers old leather jacket over my shoulders which I wear pretty much every day now.

Thank you Emma for answering my questions!

Pastel love

Hello all! I have just discovered Polyvore and it is amazing. It is the perfect way to keep track of things you want to buy or things you can't afford. This is the first one I've made but I think it turned out pretty well. I have my eye on a yellow Kanken bag and a pale pink coat, so that's what inspired this. I've always loved the colours pink and yellow together and I think they look especially good here, it's sort of clueless-esque.

Chasing visions of our futures





Title from one of my current favourite songs: Youth by Daughter.

On Saturday I went to Cambridge for the afternoon to see my brother. I absolutely love Cambridge; it's so chilled and pretty. Seeing all the students always makes me feel more motivated and want to work harder, partly to get into a good Uni and partly for the chance to decorate a dorm room. I wore these BRIGHT mustard tights from Forever 21 and I love them. I definitely got some weird looks but sometimes it's fun to wear something a bit more controversial. I also wore my car boot sale dress which I showed in a previous post. It was so comfy; I felt like I was wearing pajamas. To top it all off I wore this pink, crown-like headband which I last wore when I was about 6. I always wore it backwards as a kid because it looked like a crown and I thought I was a princess. The tradition was continued.

Headband - No clue
Dress - Car boot sale (originally Mango)
Tights - Forever 21
Boots - Gap
