London Art Trip

So I have been meaning to post this ageeeees ago (2 months to be specific!). We took a trip with our art school DJCAD down to London where we could any galleries we want! Here are just some snaps from the trip :)

Oxford Street where we spent over 2 hours in the massiveeeee Topshop!!

Bricklane

 Bricklane

 Bricklane where we did most of our vintage shopping!

 Bricklane

 Vintage Shopping, Bricklane

The vintage shops in Bricklane were absolute amazing- I would do anything to go back just to go vintage shopping! Picked up some really nice pieces. I will probably do another blog post on my purchases from London :)

 We also all got randomly interviewed by Cherry from bbc3 loool

 Damien/Kusama exhibitions-both amazing!

 I don't know if she realised she was sitting in between two butt cheeks meheeh

 I was in heaven inside this exhibition at the Design museum, totally up my street and who doesn't love louboutin?!! Unfortunately no pictures we're allowed but the shoes were of course AMAZING.

 Don't know why but this area of London reminded me of Toronto?!

I'm just too cool.

Sisters out on the town

 So we went out for our friend's birthday the other night and this is what we wore!

 (Dress: H&M, Shoes: Jeffery Campbell, Belt: Vintage, Necklace: Ebay)
When i first saw this dress, i was in enchanted by the print and the colour. But also the price £12.99, so naturally i had to have it! It's a very easy dress to wear as the material is just a stretchy jersey. The shape on top is quite unusual, which made it appealing to me. 

 (Dress: Oh my love, Shoes: Miss KG, Bodychain: Ebay)

I don't normally wear black but fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it, I love the chiffon material! I picked it up in a shop in Bricklane, London. I am obsessed with body chains and have been collecting them and this is one of my favourites! I got it off ebay for around £20!

Oh we do like to be beside the seaside

So not in a bikini or anything as don't exactly live in 30 degrees heat but this is what we can put up with and it was freezing! Still pretty nice though, this is a beach in Broughty Ferry outside Dundee in Scotland.

I bought this fun 'camera' bag for Flora from Asos as a Christmas present but I borrowed it for the day :) 

Love my aviator sunglasses, they reflect everything! Also like the cut out shoulder detail in this top along with the sequinned lightning bolt!

Picked up this cute ring in H&M two days ago for £1.99!

I've been wanting these tiger earrings from Topshop forever so when they finally went on sale I snapped them up straight away! They've got a pretty good jewellery sale on at the moment.

What I'm wearing:

Jacket: H&M

Top: Topshop

Shorts: Vintage Levi (Flora cut up Mum's old jeans!)

Boots: H&M

Handbag: Asos

Sunglass: Asos

Ring: H&M

Earrings: Topshop

Thank you for reading!

If you go out in the woods today, you're sure of a big surprise

 I couldn't believe my eyes..it was actually snowing after all that great weather we've had. That's unpredictable and typical UK weather for you. Even though it was freezing we found this spot to take pictures in which was beautiful! One day Flora decided to look at my Grandma's clothes which are all so lovely and picked out this vintage Burberry trench coat which I LOVE!!! She actually asked who's coat it was as she hadn't worn it in that long and let us keep it! This is a classic piece that will never date which has the signature Burberry pattern on the inside of the coat.  My footwear was not very appropriate for this weather as I was sinking into the ground, however its all in the name of fashion. They are a pair of very high, black, court, fringe heels from Miss KG by Kurt Geiger.

Lazy Day

 Just kept my outfit pretty laid back today, but tried to edge it up my eyeliner flicks that i haven't lined around the eye. My hair was in a top knot as i went to school with it damp, so i took it down and had this nice wavy effect i don't usually get. 

Underneath my oversized jumper from Cheap Monday, which i picked up for £10 on Asos, is my sister's peter pan collar top from warehouse. I love peter pan collars, they are just so cute. 

My outfit it pretty minimal with no jewellery, instead opted for lilac nails and leopard print wedges to give it some personality. 

(oversized jumper: Cheap Monday, Shirt: Warehouse, Belt: Mother's, Shoes: Ebay, Satchel: Ralph Lauren)

Underneath the jumper I've got a puffy skirt to give it some shape, where I cinched in my waist with my mother's weaved belt. This belt literally can go with any outfit, it's so versatile due to being weaved, it fits perfect anywhere on the body. And to chuck all my junk I carry around into is my massive satchel from Ralph Lauren, which i got for christmas. When I saw it i knew it would be one of those items that you literally will use for the rest of your life.

Scottish Sun

So for those of you who live in the UK or more specifically Scotland, know that we've had AMAZING weather recently..for us anyway and I've been taking advantage by getting the summer wardrobe out! I've totally been having Marilyn Monroe situations with the wind though! Just back from a meeting at art school in Dundee where I wore this dress that doesn't get out very often. I love the vibrancy of colour and the material! I actually purchased this dress from Topshop a few years from a limited line designed by Barbara Hulanicki for a bargain of £9 :O down from £60...I always tend to find amazing bargains like this. The wedges are by Ash which were over £100 but Flora got them for just £29! Also got the fringe hoop earrings from Topshop which were also in the sale! The brown belt is my Mum's vintage belt.

Also, I don't normally wear my hair like this- my fringe is at that awkward growing out stage so I purchased this hairband from H&M for £1.99. Might get the fringe back soon though!
