PATTERNED DRESS | OOTD.

It's been so long since I've done an OOTD kinda post ladies and gents! I kind of fell out of love with them and my make up posts have quite clearly been taking over my blog. I need to learn to space my stuff out so you guys don't get bored with my posts. Anyway, I really want to bring my OOTD posts back to my blog. So please let me know if you'd like to see more of these kind of posts? I'm not too sure if you've missed them or not?  I know these photos are far from the best, but I've got to get use to my partners house, garden, neighbours (that always seem to be outside, blurgh) haha! It can be very nerve racking and I really don't know how you ladies do it when you take your outfit photos in the street and stuff. My hat goes off to you girls and guys! I'd love that kind of confidence, but for now it's just me and my tripod.

RUSH OOTD.

RUSH OOTD.

This was one of those mornings that I had about half an hour to get ready, everything was in the wash so I had no clothes and I needed to take a few quick blog photos before heading out of the house. I must be more organised when it comes to choosing an OOTD for my blog, it kills me! 

Anyway I'm really loving high neck vests/tops anything of the sort at the minute. So it was a must when I stumbled across this little cheap crop top in H&M for just £5.99. What I like about this crop is that it comes down a lot lower on the tummy than most crop tops. Everyone needs a black and white high neck in their wardrobe, they just go with everything ... right?! 

I'm still trying to break my dockers in, although they've never rubbed me, I just want them to be soft and bendy so I don't feel like I'm walking robotic. So I've been trying to wear these out as much as I can this week. I will break you in! What have you been up to anyway? I'm gutted that the sunshine hasn't stayed around :( waaaaah.

WHITE SUNGLASSES.

WHITE SUNGLASSES.

I'm seriously loving white accessories at the moment. I honestly can't get enough so when I saw these cute little sunglasses in Primark last week I had to pick them up. Now I've always been a fan of circle framed glasses or anything that looks like a 'John Lennon' pair. Do you feel comfortable wearing these kind of glasses? Whilst I was in Primark I also picked up this military style dress, which is very light weight and not too clingy on the bod, which will be great throughout the S/S this year. They also did this dress in navy and khaki I think? But I decided to go for black as I didn't have anything in this style in the colour black.

How gorgeous has it been recently? I definitely made the most of it this weekend whilst I was babysitting for my two nieces and nephew. We decided to go to the park and me and my boyfriend seemed to have more fun than the kids. We spent our weekend playing on the park, climbing trees, playing crazy golf and had a water fight in the garden. Did you get up to much this weekend?

PUSS IN BOOTS | FASHION.

PUSS IN BOOTS.
Just a quick one today, over the last few weeks I've been having a good old think about my sense of style and realised that all I tend to wear is black or dark colours, but I've found that this is just one of those comfort things and it's very easy to blend in. Yet, when I'm looking/shopping online I always seem to like the bright, bold clothing, yet there's nothing like this in my wardrobe. So this year I've set myself a task and I'm going to be more 'out there', which means that the bright, bold, wonderful colours that I always lust over online are slowly going to be building up in my wardrobe... eeeeek. I can't wait. I'm no longer going to care what people think. Basically when I like something, I'm going to wear it! Why has it only just sunk in at the age of 24 that I don't care what people think anymore? (obviously within reason). I wish I would of had the confidence/same views at 16/18.

I know there's not much colour in these photos, but I promise there shall be soon. When I look at these photos I can't help but laugh... HELLO PUSS IN BOOTS HA! I had to get that out there before somebody else did haha.

Anyway, what do we think to my little earrings that I made? I'm totally in love! Oh so Clueless!

CASUAL DAY.

I've really got a thing for fishnet/mesh/black or anything with lace lately. So I'm quite surprised to see myself in a white tee! I was also a little late on the slit above the knee jean hype so I decided to make my own and pair it them with my fishnet stockings underneath and of course my lovely dockers that I received off the boyfriend for Christmas. I've pretty much had them on everyday since I got them . He did well ha! Keep them coming baby!

Sorry for the poor photos. I'm not too sure if it's the lipstick that's too dark, my poorly self or the fact that my hair hasn't been washed all week (grot bag) ha. God I'm a right little moaner today. I hope you all have a lovely weekend anyway. Just a quick one today.

MONOCHROME.

Hey anyway cheekies! I hope you're all doing well. I haven't done an outfit post in what feels like forever! So whilst it's not snowing outside I thought I'd jump at the chance of getting some blog photos done. God damn you shitty lighting in the colder seasons. I seem to be swearing a lot today - potty mouth. It's that dreaded hump day it gets me every time. 

Here I'm wearing my favourite skinnies that I own from Topshop. I think white jeans really make a difference in an outfit, they really do stand out. See this outfit would probably of looked really dull and boring if I would of just banged on my everyday black jeans. We've gotta love a bit of monochromeeee from time to time. Sometimes you've gotta step out of that black clothing circle, even if it hurts ha. Can you tell I've used a different camera lens in these photos? I think they look a lot better than the photos I've previously used for outfit posts (I hope you all think the same) ha and yes, my back yard does look like some kind of scrap yard (tip) the shitty weather has taken its toll. I must admit that I do quite like it though.

Oh yeah! Have we noticed anything new *hint hint* my new pet by any chance? I actually have 3, but you can only see one here. HELLO PET DREADS! This one is Pirate and he was my first so it's true love. I really wish I was cool enough to rock a full head of dreads... I'd end up looking like that Cindy doll off Rugrats if I tried. Eeeeeeek you've gotta love em'.

CASUAL.

CASUAL.

Casual Sunday attire right here! There's nothing better than snuggly clothes, good food and loads of films on Sunday. I've been getting a lot of wear out of this little black cardigan from Primark recently it was only around £10.00, maybe less?  The boots are one of my Christmas presents from last year, my mum and dad got me them from River Island. I have nearly worn the bottoms out of them as I've worn them that much. I'm desperate for some new ones, maybe Santa will fetch me some new ones this year? (wishful thinking) ha. They still have some in River Island that are similar this year, they've just got more of a heel on them, which some people may prefer anyway | link.

I've just had some exciting news that my sister Rochelle will be home for Christmas this year. You don't know how happy I am about this! I have a plan to make sure this Christmas is just as lovely as any other year, especially for my dad. As some of you may know I lost my Auntie in September this year to Cancer, she battled this god awful illness for 10 years and it just hasn't been the same without her. She was like my mum in so many ways, a best friend, she's someone that I love so much and means everything to me. It's going to be so hard without her this year, but I will try my best to make it as nice as I possibly can for my family and my Auntie Debbie as I know she will be with us in spirit and she wouldn't want us to be sad. i love and miss you so much Auntie Debs x

I can't help but laugh when I look at these pictures... I look so evil and mardy haha! I probably was as it was early in the morning and I'm certainly not an AM kinda gyal. Anyway what do we think to this trench coat? Now don't get me wrong I love me a trench coat, but I'm just not too sure about this one? I don't know if it's the colour that washes me out a bit or the fact that I wear nothing but dark colours. What do we think? I've been loving this cute little dress from H&M that I picked up recently and it was only around £12/£13, such a bargain! You can literally wear anything with these kind of dresses and they look super cute with tops/jumpers layered over them too. 

Who's looking forward to Christmas other than me?! I went out and got our advent calendars the other day and I'm trying to get down my 'to buy' list as quickly as I can, I don't want to be leaving anything until the last minute again, but it usually tends to happen there's always that one thing I forget about.

SOME KINDA WITCH.

SOME KINDA WITCH.

You really don't know how much I love to throw on an old woolly jumper. The majority of my Summer clothes have now been packed away :( seen as though the weathers dropped dramatically.. it's been really cold these last couple of days in the UK. I much prefer Summer nights.

Anyway I feel like this outfit seems to have a real 'witchy' vibe about it... now I don't no if it's the skirt or the hat or both of them put together? All I really need now is a cauldron! Just imagine how amazing it would be to make your own spells and potions?!?!? Ok let me just get back to the real world ha! I'm forever distracting myself aren't I? 

So, I've been really into my hats these colder months don't you reckon? I've never got one off my head! I'm starting to think I'm Ne-Yo or somethaaang. I think the skirt, hat, socks and boots give an  old jumper that new/edgy look you may just be after. As whenever I wear a jumper and leggings or a jumper and jeans I just feel like too much of a plain Jane, not that there's anything wrong with it. I just like a little extra something... maybe some would say I'm OTT.

I really can't believe Bonfire night is over with... It's Christmas next!
i best start shopping! eeeeeek.

MESH MESH MESH.

MESH MESH MESH.

So what do we think to the new wig? I've been tempted to have ginger ombré hair for so long, the only thing that was stopping me was the fact that my boyfriend has ginger hair too ha ha.I must admit I do really like it, but I'm in two minds whether to go full head or not as I've still got blue tints in the ends of my hair from when I used 'Washed Up Mermaid' by Bleach London and it's annoying me. 

Anyway... I've been loving this little dress from Missguided that I recently ordered for just £19.99! I honestly bought it for the mesh dress that goes over the top as I've been wanting one of these for ages after watching one of Paloma Faiths videos that featured something similar. That girl is out of this world! I've also been loving these over sized fish net socks from ASOS the only problem is that they ladder really easy, which sucks :( so just be extra careful if you've got some of these in mind.

I hope everyone is well anyway. I've had quite a busy couple of weeks recently so I've been out of blog posts. I'm so looking forward to Christmas now and my baby nephew being born he's due on the 28th December eeeeek!
