Holiday Outfits Part 2


















OUTFIT 1:
Jumper: H&M
Trousers: eBay (originally ASDA)
Bag: Tenerife
Shoes: Topshop




OUTFIT 2:
Hat: eBay
Top: Pull&Bear
Shorts: Bershka


OUTFIT 3:


Top: Topshop
Skirt: Topshop
Sheer Blouse: Car Boot Sale
Necklace: Bershka



I put the last 3 of my holiday outfits all in one post as I didn't have enough pictures for the first two. I guess it will be back to normal outfits from now on, although I'll be heading to Italy next week so once I get back I'll have *fingers crossed* some more outfits for warmer climates.

Is anyone else finding it depressing that all the shops are bringing out the A/W collections any minute now? No thank you! I'll be sat here in my floral prints with my sunnies on all Winter, denying the fact that it's snowing and planning my future move abroad.

Dolphin Couture











Top: Monki
Backpack: Primark
Denim skirt: Charity shop
Hat: Monki
Belt: Primark
Shoes: Primark

Umm.. OK.. I can explain this outfit... Maybe not. Maybe the 90's "vibes" were just too strong but I couldn't help but pair this tacky dolphin tee with that fluro hat. At least I didn't top it off with a bum bag, right? (Don't think I didn't think about it though)

Ugh, can we just talk about how some shady ebay seller sent me yaki hair extensions? They've gone all fuzzy and I can't do much about it right now. So I'm just going to have to deal with it. Be careful when buying hair extensions on ebay guys! Learn from my mistakes :(

Holiday Outfits Part 1








Top: F21
Skirt: H&M
Bag: Tenerife
Necklace & Bracelet: Miss Selfridge
Shoes: New Look


It's taken me so long to upload these pictures because I miss my holiday so much. I miss sitting on the beach and dipping my feet in the rock pools, the sunsets that you could see (whilst eating dinner at Burger King!), and I even miss the people trying to sell sunglassess by the beach.. ok maybe I don't miss them! My boyfriend and I had such an amazing time and I really hope we can go back on day.

We were only able to take hand-luggage on the flight, but I'm surprised at how much I managed to bring for an 8 day trip and I really enjoyed having a "capsule wardrobe" of pieces to mix and match. I ended up wearing many skater skirts and shorts that week.

Topshop Sale Lust

It's not often I make wishlist posts because online "window shopping" can quickly escalate to actual shopping so I try and stay away. However, I've put together all my faves from the current Topshop Sale as I couldn't justify buying everything in my basket while I'm moving house. This way I can live vicariously through my blog and through anyone who has bought/will be buying from the sale, so if you've already snapped up a bargain then let me know below!



Ahh a girl can dream, eh?

"Yo listen up here's a story"



Ok, so I did a thing. I decided to dye my hair blue (not necessarily on a whim this time though). And it's ok, because I justified myself months ago by saying "well now I've dyed my hair brown I wonder how long it will take for me to dye it again". Well, three months is the answer. I'm a nightmare and I can't believe my hair is still in a good condition (it baffles me!)
This is by far my favourite non-natural colour I've gone and I really do hope it sticks around for a while (despite everyone calling it green!!) I think it suits my skin tone a lot more than pink and it goes down a treat with elderly folk so win-win!

I know I've been horrendous at blogging recently, life has well and truly gotten in the way over the last few weeks and months and it's showing no sign of slowing down. I tried to blog but my motivation (or lack of) was a bit naff, so I didn't push myself as I haven't been happy with my sub-standard content recently. But fingers crossed as my motivation is returning quickly and I've been pretty good with getting youtube videos out (2/3 a week, holluh!), so check out my channel if you're wondering what else I've been working on (youtube.com/lillarosax)

I've got a few posts lined up and may dedicate a whole day to my blog (if I can find one) soon! Yay! So how has everyone been?
