Winter gypsy

More crappy photos. Wearing a Topshop dress, Miss Selfridge tights, Urban Outfitters cardi, mom's waistcoat, random leopard scarf, Miss Selfridge fur coat and DM's. Man it was freezing yesterday and today we have snow!

Off now, hope this posts 'cos I scheduled it. :)

Harsh

Sorry about the crappy photo quality. And the grumpy expression, I'm really tired and my last exam did not go well.

Wearing a vintage shirt, knitted shorts from Asos and my beautiful coat from Miss Selfridge. Also leopard flats but you can't see them. I bought these shorts a few weeks ago and love them - they're so comfy and warm - but I find it really hard to style them. Not sure why. And also, I think they're a bit of a wierd shape.. Giselle from Style of a Fashionista has them too so I will watch how she styles them.. :)

I was told to tie up my loose ends

Photos from Russia: (Nicked my friends'.)

In Russian McDonalds - so much cooler than England.








Me and C in Harry Potter glasses ages ago before I cut all my hair off. And no, I haven't seen the film nor do I have any plans to.


Me and D the other day. How cute are the matching dresses?!




Current inspiration obsessions:


Yes, I realise it's freezing (snow expected this weekend!!!) ... I'll make it work somehow...

And a few resolutions:
Post more
Go on Twitter more
Comment on blogs I follow/love more
Post on Oh L'Inspiration more (running out of disk space!)
Go on Facebook less

Sorry for the lack of posting, I've had exams but they're all over now! I'm going to make up for my terrible blogger-ness by posting all the time now. :)

Things I want

Since I have some time today (supposed to be revising or doing art but whatever), I figured I'd work on my christmas list.

1. Digital SLR camera. Enough said.

2. River Island purple agate pendant - I remember seeing this in a shop a while ago and instantly falling in love but I was being dragged out of the shop at that point and I had no money so I couldn't buy it. I've been dreaming about it ever since and only today had the smarts to look it up on the website. Had a heart attack when I couldn't find it or anything like it on any high street websites, then eventually realised maybe it wasn't real amethyst and found it instantly - on sale too! Might have to go to town tomorow and get it.. Might also have to get a real amethyst pendant, just look at these beauties!



3. This.
Fabulousness in a bracelet. Manages to combine all my favourite things - chunky, detail, chains, animals/insects, metal and all in that lovely dirty bronzey colour.

4. Autumn-y deer and wolf rings from Topshop. And just about any other autumn-animal themed jewelley. Like this deer necklace and leopard ring, both from River Island.

5. Anything owl-related. Like a necklace, a bracelet, or perhaps some enamel earrings, or even studded ones. Possibly a locket too.. Remember how I was obsessed with birds? Well I still am and my exam piece that I started yesterday is a owl with its wings spread. I love being able to indulge in obsessions. I'll show you the millions of bird drawings/paintings etc that I've done next week when my exam is over.

6. Remember the Topshop robot brooch I was in love with?

Well it's out of stock on the website (not sure about stores) buuuut.. it's on the Topman website! And I think it's cheaper! I think I prefer it with grey arms and legs. Although there is a pretty cute robot necklace too..

7. Something burgundy, my new favourite colour (for clothes. My favourite colour is still purple). So that would be these velvet leggings or knee high socks.

8. Black/grey jersey maxi skirt. Yep, stiiill want one. Just need to find the perfect one.

9. Leopard print blouse. I'm suuure I saw the perfect one somewhere but I can't for the life of me remember where. Maybe it was a dream?

What do you want?

Ps. Thank you to my new follower :)

It's a marvellous night for a moondance

Another busy busy week and no time to take outfit photos which is a shame because I wore some things I love that haven't been on this blog yet. But enjoy some random photos. And I promise to start blogging better once my two weeks of mocks are over (ARGH GONNA DIE, GONNA DIE, NOT DONE ENOUGH ART! KILL ME NOWWWWWWW).


For S's art project wearing random black leotard and bronze skirt my mom made for me.

Me and L both wearing L's clothes because I got locked out of my house..


Aaaaand, I was so happy because in town on Saturday I was street style snapped for two girls' uni fashion project. I was so flattered and am still pleased. :)

Ps. Thank you so muchhh to my new followers :)

Animalistic

This is what I've been doing during my three day weekend. I made the elephant necklace as a birthday present for my friend E out of paper mache, painted a deer on the back of my old school blazer and bought bunny ears at a bonfire (they flash!). :)

Thinking of you, should I come see you?

Happy Diwali everyone! I'm currently trying to convince my parents that we should celebrate all festivals since we're a multi-cultural, multi-faith family. So in this spirit I wore my favourite and newest silk kurta from Fabindia, my mom's blue leggings from Topshop, my mom's dark green waist belt and my lovely boots from Zara. The colours of the kurta are perfect for fall but are also somewhat Christmas-sy.




Hope you had a great day whatever your religion is, even if you were at school/work (I got to miss school, woop). And don't forget, Eid al-Adha is in two weeks! :)

Untitled

Work avoidance + good lighting + camera with wide angle lens + new hairstyle + new jewellery = this.





Wearing a random grey top that I found (it's probably my mom's) and now really love because it's so soffffft, skirt from H&M, heart necklace, mini glass bottles (I think they're meant for a dolls house) hooked onto a random earring and cherub pendant both from Hobbycraft. Made the bottles charm at some ridiculous time last night (I have 4 more of these, oh the possibilities!) as well as hacking the logo off my old school blazer. Now it only says 'HIGH SCHOOL' and I'm debating whether to take that off too, leave it or write something in front/after it.

I'm also trying out a new hairstyle. I got the idea when I was drying my hair, swooshed it to the side and happened to look in the mirror. I quite like it. It reminds me of when my hair was long (my hair used to be down to practically my butt) because if it was long and straight I'd put it on one side to imitate my then favourite Sims 2 hairstyle. Oh and if you can see what looks like a grey/silver streak in my hair, it's a wing pendant that I clipped in and tried to photograph but didn't work. Another day.

I used to collect Sylvanian Families so I'm off to see if there're any little acessories I can use to make more jewellery. Miniture anythings are sooo cute! :)
