Hello! I am aware I haven't really been giving this blog my full attention recently, and I do apologise. It's the October Week so I've been off school all week, which means going out with friends and spending far far too much money and doing none of my holiday homework so far,even though I have piles and piles of it :)
Today we went for tapas and then back to my friends house where we watched 27 Dresses, which I really liked. And yesterday i went into town with my mum for shopping, and we saw Brideshead Revisited, though I'll talk about that in another post, I want to spend time talkign about the costumes and everything. The day before that (oh dear my memory is soo bad!) oh yes, I went into town with friends and we went to see Stone of Destiny, which I would say was just average, and then we went to Starbucks. My main problem was with the film was the main character's Scottish accent, or lack of it. It quite annoys me they could not cast a Scottish actor to play a Scottish character, but I won't get all nationalisty on you, as I'm not usually patriotic or anything.
Anyway, the day before that I went to Pollok Park with my dad, and it was soo pretty. The leaves were such gorgeous colours, I really love autumn!
I've been wearing my AE skirt like a lot, today I wore it for tapas with a little pink primark shrug I bought ages and ages ago but have never worn before. I've also been wearing my new black skirt from primark I think I mentioned in another post. And I bought a stripy top in H+M the day I was in town with my mum, so I've been planning lots of outfits to wear with it in my head! Today my friend was saying how much she liked my skirt, and another friend said she hasn't seen me wear jeans for ages now.
I guess that's true, mainly because I feel more confident in skirts and dresses now. I can never find a good pair of jeans, and I think skirts are more flattering on me. I have 2 pairs of skinny jeans, but I never feel very confident when wearing them.
I promise to get some more pictures of my outfits from the past few days, and I will make my blog prettier, it's so boring-looking at the moment!
Urgh, i have sososo much hw to do tomorrow, having typically left it until the second-last day of the holiday to do. Ah well, what's new.
So tomorrow I will be stuck inside all morning doing my homework, but then I am going to Pollok House with my mum and my auntie in the afternoon I think, as she's just joined the National Trust lol. I'll see if I can take any sneaky pictures inside, I love looking around old houses :) And then in the evening I will do an outfit post! Ha!

Outifts

Hey! Well, as promised, here are some outfits for you!

This is what I wore to see The Duchess with my friend the other week, (please excuse my face btw I don't normally look like this!) and here's a closer one, and a picture of the cameo brooch from the charity shop, plus some more of my favourite jeweellery!

I have also bought the mintgreen flapper dress I've seen on a few blogs from H+M. I'm going to wear it for my friend's halloween party, and the halloween disco at school.

I hope you enjoyed that, the photos aren't the clearest maybe! But right now, I'm going to drink this, befoere I have to study for a Higher RMPS test booo!

Ciao! xxx

What a week!

Hello! This has been rather a hectic week once more! I started this blog on Monday, then on Tuesday I went into town with three of my friends and we went to Pizza Hut and did some shopping. I wore pretty much the same outfit as I mentioned in my first post, with the AE skirt, except I wore a navy striped tshirt from Gap lol! Then I was back to school on Wednesday after the September weekend, and then yesterday I was at a philosophy conference all day at the private school, which was pretty intimidating!

I wore my flowery primark dress which I absolutely love, I wore it all the time this summer, black ankle boots and my new black leather jacket. I just got it the other week, so I still get so excited every time I see it just hanging in my wardrobe! It's from Urban Outfitters, and it's real leather so it cost an arm and a leg but I love it so so much!

Then I was back at school today, but I have a jammy free period after lunch on Fridays so I got to leave early :) So I got the train to Shawlands and went to all the charity shops. I bought this gorgeous peachy blouse with gold buttons in the vintage shop for £10, and a little black and white cameo brooch for £1 from a charity shop yay! I love cameos, there was this gorgey gold necklace with a cameo pendant in the vintage shop but it was £15 which is kinda out of my price range for a necklace, but I may save up and get it soon.

Sorry I still don't have any photos up because I'm charging my batteries for my camera but I promise to get some up by the end of the weekened!

Introduction :)

Hey so this is my first post on my new fashion blog. I've been reading fashion blogs for about a year now and finally feel like it's time to start my own one! I intend to do some outfit posts here, muse about what my favourite celebs are wearing, and generally talk about fashion. I'm in sixth year at school atm so things are pretty hectic already, what with advanced highers, committees organisations prefect duties etc so realistically I will probably post about twice a week, perhaps more or less occasionally, depending on how busy I am with other things.

I don't really feel like I have a signature style or anything yet, I usually stick to the same sort of things though. My typical outfit would be skinny jeans, my battered but beloved gold ballet pumps, pearls, and a vintage scarf (i have tons that my mum gave me a few years ago which I wear constantly).

Today I went to see The Duchess with my friend and I wore : aforementioned gold pumps, white tee, purple cardi, and a gorgeous American Eagle navy skirt (bought from their website with a birthday gift voucher) with a lacy petticoat underneath I got from my local vintage shop for £1.50 specifically to wear with the AE skirt as it is a bit see-through haha!

I really like vintage clothes but I don't have that many yet; I hope to buy some more soon. There's a great vintage shop near where I live that I hope to buy my prom dress from. I'd rather get something from there that's one-off instead of the same old Coast dress that 20 girls have in the same lilac, pink or blue!

I really enjoyed The Duchess ; the costumes were beautiful and I loved the little ribbon Keira Knightley wore around her neck, tied with a flower, at one point. I'd like to maybe work in the costume departments of movies when I grow up, period dramas in particular as I really like history.
Here is a link to a cool page about the costumes in the film : http://uk.fashion.popsugar.com/1896280

Well I guess this was a sort of nothingy post, but I just wanted to make a first post. Over the next few days I'll do some more work to get it started properly! XxX
