Tanned

Jacket ebay, String Vest ebay, Levis 501 Cut Offs ebay, Boots Spartoo

Wow the UK weather really is being a bitch at the mo but us Brits are used to crap weather and make the most of it I have to admit that I am getting sick of the rain and I have not known a summer quite as bad as this one. I manged to take these pics while we had a brief rest bite from the downpours. I totally forgot about this jacket I love that it is oversized ha ha also just realized that most of what I am wearing is from ebay.

Black & White

Kaftan H&M, Boots Topshop (old)

This H&M kaftan was on my want list from the campaign in the H&M Mag I was shocked to see it in store so quick and there was only two left so I could not walk away from it the benefits of working in a town centre. I teamed it with boots for something different but it will look fab with gladiators and my all time fav cowboy boots.

Something New

Kimono Oh My Love, Top Primark, Cycling Shorts H&M, Boots Buffalo from Spartoo, Bag ASOS

I brought this full length kimono a while back and I have not had a chance to wear it I saw it originally on ASOS and it sold out super quick so I goggled the brand and was pleased to see that they had them in stock it is by Oh My Love check them out here they have some amazing kimonos and really cheap too.

Bleached

Top H&M, Waistcoat Label Lab, Leggings Topshop, Boots Topshop, Bag Local Market, Necklace Topshop

I did bleach the fringe leggings from the last post and I am pleased with the results was a bit shocked they went red I was expecting more of a rusty brown shade but I think this is more striking my mums face was a picture as she watched in horror as I tied knots in the legs and then dunked them in a bowl of bleach.

You can keep your hat on

Leggings Topshop, Top Topshop, Boots Aldo, Hat H&M, Necklace Little Wing

I am wearing my new fringe leggings the weather has gone a bit blurghh it is not cold but the good old English grey skies are back and it is a bit windy not overly great when wearing a hat. I cant help thinking that these leggings need all the black breaking up I might try a DIY on them using bleach.

DIY Done Good

Dress H&M (diy by moi), Cycling Shorts H&M, Gladiators Jeffrey Campbell (old), Sunnies Vintage Lanvin my Aunties

Hello 24 degrees we are having some seriously warm weather here in the UK. You might remember my diy from this post here. Well because the weather has been so fabulous I have been able to wear some of my pieces for summer. This so perfect in warm weather it feels like I am wearing nothing so I am quite happy that I sacrificed my H&M maxi dress.

Spin, Spin Sugar

Levis 501 Cut Offs ebay, Tee (old), Kimono Topshop, Belt H&M, Moccasins New Look

I love this kimono and I cant stop myself from spinning and twirling in it :) the temperature has dropped a little and even though it looks quite warm I have to admit it was a little bit cold for bare legs it is after all still April but I still cant believe what gorgeous weather we have been having. I am wearing my much loved and very old moccasins I am not a big lover of flat shoes but these are the exception.

Positively Spring Like

Tunic Day Birger, Levis 501 Cut Offs ebay, Scarf Theapy, Necklace & Headband H&M, Boots Office (old)

Wow we have been spoilt by the weather it was nice to have a little taste of spring. I have been wearing the scarf I DIYed loads it seems to go with everything but I have not had a chance to put it in an outfit post yet so here it is.

Bird on a Budget

Knitted Shorts ASOS, Top H&M, Bag ASOS, Jacket Miss Selfridge, Necklace Topshop, Rings Thifted & H&M, Bangles Old, Boots Old

I love sourcing things sometimes I wish I had a huge disposable income and that I could buy everything I wanted but sadly I haven't and where would the fun be in that. I love looking at designer images and then sourcing my own version of it from the High Street or ebay. I love this little fringe bag it is from ASOS check it out here and it was only a tenner it was the long fringing that caught my eye.

Fringe on Fringe

Kimono Topshop, Dress Topshop, Wedges Blue Inc

Last week I got a message from the gorgeous Melissa of Princess and the Pea saying that there was the most amazing fringed kimono that had just arrived on the Topshop website I could'nt believe my eyes when I saw it straight into my basket it went and I was checking out. A few hours later it had literally sold out. Anyway when it arrived it was even more beautiful than the picture on the website it is by far my most favourite item of clothing that I own ever.

I decided to team it with more fringing oh and feathers :) what the heck but this is going to be awesome in the summer thrown over everything.

Spent Out

Vest H&M, Levis Cut Offs ebay, Boots (old), Shawl Miss Selfridge (old), Necklace Topshop via ebay, Rings Topshop & Margie Heart Vintage

I have had so much fun this month buying things. I have been on ebay buying Levis to turn into shorts this pair being one of them. Then I decided that I really wanted that dip dyed fringe necklace and of course Topshop had sold out ages ago but hey yep I found one on ebay. The silver ring was a little treat on a lunch time shopping spree opps along with a huge turquoise pendant both from Toppers.

My outfit was inspired from Inside my Head and my Wardobe check her out she has gorgeous style and an amazing wardrobe of fabulous Topshop pieces could not help poaching her shawl idea I have had this one for ages.

Yet Another DIY

I am attaching feathers to everything I found this gorgeous printed scarf by Therapy check it out here I attached feathers to two corners to give it a bit more interest and to channel Roberto Cavalli's AW11 collection I am pleased to see that the Boho look with lots of fringing and feathers is still going to be strong in AW11

I have been buying a few things on ebay mainly Levis to turn into shorts and some other bits and bobs will share them with you soon xoxo

Summer Nights

Jacket ebay, Dress H&M, Shoes Spartoo

I won this suede jacket on ebay last week. It is going to be great when the weather gets warmer but I could'nt wait till then so I decided to team it with my maxi dress shame I still have to wear tights. The best thing about these pictures is that I took them at 6pm which means the nights are getting lighter whoop whoop.

Catch me a dream

Trousers H&M, Jacket Miss Selfridges,, Boots Dune Bag, Label Lab, Rings Topshop, H&M & Margie Hearts Vintage

Wow the sun sure did have his hat on I took these pictures yesterday and what a stunning day the wind had died down and the sky was perfect azure blue could almost of been spring if it was not for that little chill in the air. You guys seemed really interested in the feather post so I have found some links where you can buy dream catchers. This ebay seller has some beautiful ones check them out here and Wakan Tanka has some amazing Native American Products including dream catchers check it here

The one I have on my bag is customized by moi I removed the middle attachment which is now on a neckalce and added these longer feathers which I brought from ebay. Just incase you was wondering :)))
