Blinding

Wow. Tom Binns, your jewellery should come with a warning: Do not look directly at it, can cause blindness from the gleam. Also can cause debt for people with little will power.

And the studs make me weak :)

Lots of 'it buuuuurns' love,

Stomp

It's nearly going to be time for huddling up in coats and traipsing around in boots, so I'm putting dibs on this pair from River Island:

I think the country/equestrian look is perfect at the moment and I can't wait to get my hands on some essentials like these! I've been at work today and I'm babysitting tonight, so I might be able to afford them in the near future. Although I have a slight phobia of horses so I won't be going riding anytime soon...

BC Whatever

I have fallen in love with graphic prints recently, so when I saw this amazing dress from Ashish I had to post:

That is some funky Aztec going on. And I think if sequins had been invented and available in the 14th century or whenever then they would have combined them to make this marvel. I hated history back in the days when I had to do it (a whole 3 years ago!) but if it had been history of fashion, we might have got along.

Squawk?

So, after finishing my week long self-imposed ban on knit wear, I am glad to be able to resume posting with this jumper from Whistles that can only be described as fabulous:

It makes me think 'Ostrich'. And surprisingly, not in a bad way. I love the slightly out there stripes of fluff, I can see me working that. Although at this moment in time I am wearing a hot pink mohair cardigan, so my perception might be slightly skewed.

Lots of 'They have weird knees' love,

Last Ones Standing

What a busy, amazing, hectic weekend. So mental it actually doesn't feel like I've had any time off. Work on Saturday and then I saw Example in the evening. They were so unbelievably awesome, Kickstarts was the best 3:01 of my liiiife. I would recommend them big style. Then I went to a vintage fair on the Sunday and picked up some lovely bits and pieces, but nothing as simply beautiful as this top from Mango:

I adore the marl and the bow. It comes in a pretty burnt orange too.

Lots of 'How long until the weekend?' love,

My Only Sunshine

I kid you not, today I looked out of the window in Chemistry and thought we were experiencing a monsoon here in England. It has been bucketing it down from lunchtime onwards and it is so miserable and grey. I actually heard some of the younger girls in my school discussing which animals they would put on their ark, it's been that bad. But after seeing this beauty from D&G my day has been brightened:

It is the ray of light in my tropical storm. I love parkas, and the added shearling makes it the best thing I have seen today in a long time. Now, how to find £755...

Lots of 'I could virtually swim home' love,
