so that ring that was in my previous post? it dissapeared off the website, leaving me with only ebay to buy it from. it's slightly different this one, as its a double ring, and also not adjustable. this i am worried about, i hope it fits okay! apparantly it could take up to 3 weeks to be delivered, which i am not happy about, i must be the most impatient person ever when it comes to waiting for the post.
anyway this is it! it's cute, i'm really hoping to be able to afford the watch soon, as i am in dire need of a new watch. soon i'll put some pictures up of the things i bought the other day. i have nothing else interesting to say,

new stuff


hi, so i haven't been able to blog much recently due to my exams. but theyre all over now, the last one today so all is good! infact i nearly misssed the exam today, i was so annoyed -.- i rang my dad at like 12 asking him if itd still be okay to get a lift in, and he said yeah, but he didnt come back till 12.25, and my exam started at half past :( my friend missed her bus so we were both late together, which took the blame off eachother a bit i guess. haha, never again will i be late for a level exam! so the other day when i was supposed to be revising i went shopping, i bought a really cute peacock feather print playsuit from topshop, a headband from topshop and a dress from this vintage shop near me for £10, bargaaaain! i'll post proper photos of them later on to show you what they look like, but im also going shopping tomorow, and will no doubt end up buying more, so not much point in showing you now really haha.
topshop- £38

so at first when i got it home i wasnt sure if i definately liked it, but now its grown on me. i like peacock feathers, and playsuits are the easiest things to wear, so i decided to keep it! it also will be good for when i go on holiday, as the materials really light. did i tell you im going on holiday, to mexico in april. its ages away but im still excited aha! ive never been to mexico before, but i have a sombero and poncho so im sorted haha! apparantly where i'm going the markets are great, so im looking forward to it :) anyway i'm off as the new season of true blood starts in half an hour! i was supposed to be going out but plans fell through, cant say im really that bothered haha...

website love

i was thinking of stopping this blog, i even tried to figure out how to delete it this morning, cos to be honest im rubbish at this, when i look at other peoples it makes me realise how bad mine actually is aha. but then i stumbled across this website, and i decided i wanted to show you all it, and in order to do that i need to keep my blog haha:
http://needsupply.com/womens/
i actually want everything, but half the stuff has ran out of my size and isnt in my price range- typical.
 these are just a few of the things i want from this website:





really really want this watch, but at £64.32 its a bit steep for my ten pound a week budget:(

charity finds

so i realised that ive only posted an outfit post once haha. it takes ages for me to transfer the photos over, and my camera isnt as good quality as other blogs so thats why, rubbish excuse i know. i took a few photos over the christmas period, most of them are too blurry or you cant see the whole outfit, actually theres only one thats okay, and the outfit isnt even that nice haha.
top- topshop, shorts- river island, cardigan- gap, necklace- tiffany's


today at work i recieved a £5 gift token for the charity shop.( cos thats where i work.) so being a little overexcited about it i ended up spending it immediately on this french connection top, which im now not even that keen on. i always do this, buy things in the shop cos the makes really good, and then realise i dont like it.anyway i took some pictures of it. i swear when you have to revise for an exam you'll do anything to get out of it, even take crappy photos haha.
just wanted to show my shooooes ;)

i actually look like a boy with my hair up, but as you can see from the top photo my hairs a really awkward length at the minute, so im trying to not damage it while it grows.

top- charity shop, bag- vintage, shoes- asos. 


ew didn't mean to look so posey here, i was trynna show how the tops like dead flowy at the back haha and the camera caught my face mid movement woops. yeah so i dont know whether to keep it, im really not that fussed on it, but then i guess i can wear it in the summer with shorts. i also got gossip girl series 1 from the charity shop, so wasnt expecting to find that haha! its a pilot one, which apparantly means its only the first episode, but oh well :) anyway im off to try and swot up for these exams,

top celebrity dressers of 2010

hi, I'm actually embarrassed about how crappy my blog is, so i decided i'd do a little 'my top fashion icons of 2010.' they do a similar thing in Grazia, and every year i look forward for that issue. so here is my top ten fashion icons of the last year...

Alexa Chung


this was the year that Alexa Chung broke away from her typically 'sixth-form' approach to fashion and started to dress in a way that gave her attention from some of the most creditworthy people. still she pays homage to her vintage love in her outfits, showing that although money buys nice clothes, it doesn't necessarily buy the best style.
  
2. Blake Lively

as well as being drop dead gorgeous and having the most perfect figure ever, Blake Lively has gorgeous style. although she is often accused for her over-usage of her legs and boobs, blake lively (and serena van der woodsen) always seems to have on stunning outfit. the fashion world, including Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfield(!) have fallen in love with her. 



3. Emma Watson
wow, how is it even possible for this girl to have become so stylish?like seriously, she used to be this girl in weird dresses at he premieres, and suddenly she's broke out from dressing like hermionie and instead is wearing burberry, chanel and all these fabulous designers! she always looks so sleek and clean cut, love love love this girl!

4. carey mulligan

i love carey mulligans style because its totally different to other celebrities style, who seem to be intent of dressing in a way to appeal to men. she always seems to have made a bit of an effort, but not so much that she overdoes it. she seems to have the nicest dresses ever and a wardrobe that many girls would covet.

5. Olivia Palermo


i was sceptical about putting her on here, cos i have a bit of a 'love hate' relationship with her. on the city she comes across as the bitchiest person ever, which in a way is actually appealing, and then in interviews she seems so sweet and nice, which makes her seem a bit contradicting. but aside from our 'differences' you've gotta hand it to her, that girls got style. whether it be casual or to some fancy fashion thing, she always is deemed the more fashionable against her co-stars.she's terrifyingly sleek and sophisticated, a way in which if i met her i'd be worried incase i said something immature, or had a thread hanging from my top. oh- and she's just so pretty!

6. Sarah Jessica Parker/ Carrie Bradshaw


when i saw this photo of SJP in this dress i was literally gobsmacked, i didnt know that she still had it in her fashionwise. this year sjp stepped out of the shadows of her 'harrased mum' clothes and back into the designer heels we know and love her for wearing as carrie bradshaw. i must admit that my main love for sjp comes from carrie and her wardrobe, but this year the items i have been coveting were more the ones sjp wore to the many premieres of SATC2.

anyway thank you for reading, haha i know 6 is a bit of a weird number to finish on but i'm in desperate need to do my cw so will come back to it at a later date, unproffesional-oui?
