float forever

dress - mote, rocks c/o fuse fashion, shoes - present

I was so lucky to be sent this Motel dress recently by fusefashion.com, I was a little nervous to receive it actually as I couldn't imagine what it'd be like in person, but I am totally obsessively in love with it. I wanna wear it all day every day.

Also it's kind of made me realise just how much black clothing I own, literally half of my wardrobe is impossible to navigate as it's just one big dark mess.

golden revolver

jacket and bag - vintage, boots - h&m, leggings - gifted by oasap.com

I was lucky to be sent these leather look leggings by oasap.com recently and they're a new staple of mine. Wore them for a meal out last night, I feel like a granny/mod/boy and I like it.

Found these outtakes on my camera, thought they looked kinda nice.

Been watching copious amounts of Skins and listening to Darwin Deez's new album (so good) and wearing a hella lotta fur lately.

winter winds

I love winter but mostly I love Christmas shopping and busy people and the infinite amount of bath and body sets bought purely because of the irresistibly pretty packaging.

dressing table

bottle and jewellery dish - gifted from dotcomgiftshop

Just a snapshot of what my dressing table looks like, my collection of magazines is definitely reaching Hoarders levels (I have way more than I could fit in a photo!)

I recently received this perfume bottle and bowl-stand-thingy that I've been using as a jewellery dish, I wanted one for a while so it was sweet of dotcomgiftshop to give me one, they have such lovely things! Definitely go have a look, the delivery is like lightning fast as well!

I'm quite obsessed with dressing tables at the moment, mine and other people's. I just think they're so pretty.

this year's love

christian lacroix notebook, vintage sunglasses, miss dior cherie, topshop makeup, ballet flats.

A few of my choice possessions of the moment. I'm such a sucker for pretty and over-priced stationary, I can't help but buy it in spades. When I have my own house it'll consist solely of clothes, stationary, and used cake cups.

midnight city

Found these photos on my camera. Can't remember when or where I took them, but I love cities at night, everything looks so magical and different. I've been listening to Midnight City by M83, which seems fitting.
