Help me!

Seriously, NO ONE is following me. That's right I have NO followers, not one :( It's really depressing, but you know what? I'm going to keep on posting, despite the fact that no one will see my cute jewellery shop finds, or my cool new looks, or my tips for saving money for shopping, so anyone who happens to accidentally click on this website, PLEASEEEE add me. It doesn't matter if you have no interest in fashion. I know how this site works, you could be following me and not have to have anything to do with me, but I'm optimistically thinking that I don't have followers because no one wants to be the first one.... or maybe the only person that this is interesting is me D: anyway, just got my monthly money and I decided that what I really needed was some more jewellery :P So my new find is This Charming Girl, which is quite similar to Love Hearts and Crosses, but with a much more vintage style. So this is what I bought- some teapot earrings for £8 and this extra cute NY apple necklace for only £7.50. I'm very excited, but it could, as it has before, gone wrong! I'll update all my many followers *sighhhhhhh* about how it all turns out when they arrive.

LOVE THIS DRESS

So, about A YEAR ago I saw this dress in Grazia and actually fell in love with it, but it was £50!!!! I still loved the website, pretaportobello and so kept checking back on it and one day, I was looking in the Bargain Bin and what did I discover? My dress, now only £40! The price kept getting lower and lower and now it's only £25 so I'm incredibly happy! However, now that I can actually afford it I need to be realistic, and it won't suit me :( but now you guys know about it, so feel free :D

Just going out.

I fancied wearing something really cosy, so put on my crop top and went for a very 80s look. Also decided to experiment with jewellery so did a kind of DIY charm necklace using all my most worn necklaces and I think it turned out quite well! And, these are my other new shoes, which are great cos they work for school, dressy and casual!

New outfitttt :)

Soooooooo today was my Mum's birthday and in the evening we went out so I thought I'd experiment some more with the boots :D Wearing dress from topshop bought around 6 months ago, good ol' m&s tights and the boots from office. Also though I'd have a bit of fun with my make-up. The problem with my face is that every feature on it is big, meaning that even with very little make-up I tend to look a bit like I'm trying too hard to be sexy.... as was the case with this look where I tried wearing a bit more eyeliner with bigger winged sections and some berry lipgloss which (very unhygeinically) I found buried deep down in my make-up drawer :P

More info on new boots :D

Can I just say, I'm really pleased with these boots in case you haven't noticed ;) but I think it's because I'm quite proud of myself for having the confidence to wear them. So, this is a picture of me looking probably a bit too grungy wearing my Coldplay men's tour t-shirt, my Asda leggings (still holding up nicely) and THE boots. In future, I'm thinking wear of them with one of my more girly dresses will look more fashionable, and I'll probably feel less self conscious. In a way, I know it's fine but the second I leave the house all the teenage insecurities take over and I spend the whole day wishing I was wearing something less out-there. Anyway, turning too much into a thoughts and feelings journal so I'll be off now :)

London babyyyy ;)

The day after Coldplay, I spent the day in London and was pleased to see that Selfridges now has concessions from Office and Fred Perry, ie shops I can actually afford! So, in Office I bought two pairs of shoes; some cool new patent jazz shoes for school and some AWESOME leather workman-y, Doc Marten-y style boots which I LOVE! I was very happy to get my first ever Selfridges bag which I carried proudly along Oxford Street for about a minute before realising it was actually quite a hassle having to carry this huge bag around one of the busiest streets EVER. Anyway, this is my reasonably simple outfit, consisting of my school bag and school shoes, a chambray shirt that is almost vintage (it belongs to my dad, and I've never seen him wear it so it's at least 14 years old), and surprisingly good quality leggings from Asda, although I have to say the sizing is a bit wierd. My size 8s are quite tight, but so long that i can reach them up to my neck! Not quite sure what genius was behind this idea :/ Anyway, so note about the picture- please ignore my hair, which has almost completely dried naturally making it look terrible :S

COLDPLAYYYYY

So, on Friday I went to the Coldplay gig at Wembley and it was the best performance I have ever seen, Chris Martin often gets seen as a bit of a bastard, but his frontman performance seemed to contrast completely with this! You could tell he loved being there, and really did make what could've been just a great gig into a spectacular show. My highlight was the confetti butterflies that were blasted into the air during the last song, then fluttered down onto all the spectators. Yes, I realise I sound like I'm writing an English essay, but it really was quite magical :)
