The world was gonna roll me

^Smash Mouth

Haven't felt like of taking photos for a couple of days because I hurt my foot and my crutches are such a hassle. It's now better (and I refuse to use the crutches any longer) but I wouldn't mind taking photos with them...if I can find an appropriately industrial background... a big if.


(Yes, the skateboard is mine. No, I can't skateboard but I wish I could.)


Wearing an abercrombie top, mom's sweater, Asos scarf, River Island pants and I's converse. I was told I looked "relatively normal" in this outfit which I found amusing. Let it be known that I turn to abercrombie if I try to layer sensibly (which is entertainingly rare). :)

Ostwald Helgason leggings, everything else not mine. :)

Variations on a year

Hey December. Man I love winter and Christmastime. Pretty lights, layers of clothes (meaning you can wear all your favourite things at once!), warm fires, dark nights and it's own genre of music. The top photo is an experiment with blurring to try and create depth of field which worked interestingly. I'm wearing many of my current favourite things - Topshop snake print leggings (my LIFE. I'm considering investing in at least another pair of snake pants, and possibly branching out into leopard or zebra print pants), Primark gilet/jacket/thing, I's converse, dad's sweater, mom's bag, and friends' jewellery. :)

Round the collar of fire

My hair confuses me by being different on a daily basis. But as they say, variety is the spice of life and I have grown to be rather fond of it.

Wish I had taken a photo of the back of this top of mother's, 'twas wonderful. Ah well, just means I gotta wear it again soon.

Mother's blazer, H&M dress.

Yes my mother's closet is indeed full of gems...half of which she never wears. Much of it is kept years and years ago - the above jacket is half of a suit she bought in (I assume) the 80's or early 90's for my auntie's wedding. I hoard everything too, especially clothes in the hope that one day I'll be able to pass on garments and their stories. :)

A warm embrace

Wearing an H&M skirt, shopped USA Pro top and dad's sweater. When I got dressed, I was going to title this post "sunday blues" because I hate sundays 11am-5pm but by the time I got round to taking photos I was feeling a lot happier (and listening to much bouncier music). :)

Ps. All my nails are matching red and sparkly. Life complete. I swear having perfect nails is the cherry on top of the cake of self-actualisation. (Such a shame they'll only last about a day because I do too much arty crafty stuff.)

Eastern influence

Wearing mother's blouse, H&M skirt and assorted stolen jewellery (I do love stealing my friends' jewellery). Only one photo because I froze extremely quickly.

I was originally gonna wear this top with my long black (also sheer) skirt for a gothic look but decided I've been wearing a lot of basic black recently so went for a bright blue instead and turned out kind of eastern-y I think. Also, I'd swear the light browny colour in my hair is spreading...weird. And I wanna redo my ends so they're more blonde.. :)

Ps. Thank you to my new follower :)

I love winter but it forces me to get very creative with photo settings. (Welcome to my larder.)

Wearing mom's shirt dress thing over a plain black AA dress, Zara boots, mom's belt and assorted stolen jewellery. I carried my massive fur coat around today in the vain hope that it would make the world colder (why is it never cold when I'm dressed warmly but always when I'm not?!) and because wearing it makes me feel like a princess (or a pimp, depending on my mood).

Is this why they call me weird?

Inspired by Panda and procrastination.


Wearing a vintage dress, mom's belt, pants from Amsterdam, Docs, self-made glitter bracelet (it's winter, hello cheesy glitter obsession) and fake flowers.

I've not worn my Docs out like this yet, but I intend to as soon as I get some smaller flowers (I keep standing on the green bits and tripping). Yes I fully expect weird looks but I think they look really cool. I actually wore my leopard boots out with this outfit but whatevs. :)
