sports luxe





Shorts- Topshop 

How cool is my new jumper? I say new but I got it when I went down to London the other week, don't worry I haven't broke my spending ban(well actually I have) but not on this jumper as I was allowed to shop for the ONE day I went to London, yes my shopping life is sad :(! Yeah this jumper was a bit pricey at £45 but I don't really mind cause its so fit. It has these super cool cut outs on the elbows and chest and then white and black airtex mesh fabric- which I love. This is my new favourite piece for the 'Sports Wear' trend this season and i can wait to wear it more often!! And also you should all check out 'The Ragged Preist' clothing in Topshop.. ITS GORGEOUS I WANT IT ALL! The shorts are new too, I bought them about 5 days into my spending ban, no idea why i though it was a good idea to do some window shopping in Topshop but then I saw these beautys in the sale for £9.. £9!!! Iv been wanting just some black shorts for ages but was going to wait till summer to buy some but of course if there's some on sale(with black lace detail as well) I am obviously going to buy them, I felt bad of course, but then I though ACTUALLY NO... I've just saved my self like £27 because I was going to buy some black shorts in a few months anyway and by that time the full prices would have been back at like £36!
One more quick question... I love DIY'ing all my clothes and turning my old clothes into pieces which match the seasons trend so i though why not start selling some of my best pieces to you guys? I have some really good ideas in mind so if you would be interested in seeing them let me know and i might do some selling :)

denim and monochrome: i'm BACK..






Jumper, shorts: Topshop  Braces, Creepers: EBay


I haven't blogged in sooooo long, sorry guys, Iv'e had so much stupid school work to do and busy weekends, but i'm back and here is my outfit!
Because I find it so hard to find the time for other people to take photos for me I've decided I am just going to do it like this, which means I can post loads more outfit photos yayyy!!
I got this jumper when I went down to London for the LFWend, the Topshop their is amazing so I felt I needed to buy something: even if I am on a spending ban, which is going well? I think? I think not. But anyway i'm in love with this jumper, and I needed a new jumper anyway it is winter? Duh. I love the monochrome trend so this jumper is pretty perfect but the weather may need to warm up before I can wear shorts out again, or i'll just wear tights, actually i have some of those fleece tights which will do fine! Seriously guys get your self down to primark and get some of their fleece tights, they keep your legs so warm!
The shorts I've had for agesss, I got them for something like 7 pounds, no idea how but Topshop for 7£ you would never believe it and finally my beloved creepers, yes I love them. Also ignore my hair in these pics, it needs doing so bad and i just can't be bothered with it at the minute! 
Before I leave you all, what do you think of my new banner? I've included all my favourite fashion things... New York, Cara Delevingne(SHES SO HOT), Company Magazine, more New York and Emma Watson! Hope you like.

Oscars 2013- My thoughts on the fashion

(Sorry this post is a few days late!)
Starting off with Kristen Stewart, my love for her is big, her acting her style i just love! She's wearing Reem Acra and well looks bloody beautiful! I absolutely adore the the panels of detailing which go down this dress, i think she has chosen a fabulous colour, her pale skin on the off white fabrics looks divine and her brown ruffled hair. Definitely one of my favourite looks from the night, there's just one thing missing.. Robert Pattinson. 


Some people liked, some people didn't, but i LOVED! Her face was made up so lovely with the smokey eye and her hair loosely pulled back! The dress was definitely made for her, the halter neck is great for people with big boobs- just like Amanda and i think that's why she really pulled this look off, so well done to you Amanda Seyfried. And ps, the 2 hands on hips pose, I LOVE!


Hands up who loves Channing Tatum!! Yes i think that was everyone; this gorgeous male hottie showed up in a Gucci suit, and everyone loves a man in a Gucci suit! I adore his waistcoat and bow tie and yes... he was definitely hottest man at the Oscars! Also how gorgeous is his wife Jenna Dewan and i can already tell their baby is going to be beautiful. 


Who is this male hottie i don't seem to recognize by name? Eddie Redmayne is wearing a classic Alexander McQueen suit, 1 word.. HOT! and how cute are his little black pump type of shoes! You can buy me Alexander McQueen any day, espesh the new clutch bags xxx


I luuuuuurve Jennifer Lawrence, i really think she has one of the nicest personalities ever and in all honest we could be best friends! So the dress, the HUGE, low waist gown by Dior, I LOVE IT!! Not over done one little bit, its perfect, she stands out and i love everything about her look from the pulled back hair to the pale pink trail, well done Jennifer, and don't worry about your trip, we all still love you hunny! 

The pale colours are becoming quite a big trend at this years Oscars, now i'm not exactly a pale pink kind of girl but i love Anna Hathaway's Prada gown, the same way i love her in the Devil Wears Prada.. ALOT. Her dress was controversial with people complaining it was 'too simple' and 'gave her pointy nipples'; no people, the dress is BRITISH, she looks so British and definitely has some style about her which is different from the other american ladies. Also you can clearly see its the struchter of the dress, not her nipples so don't complain :) I think her hair colour made the dress look so flattering and she looked like an elegant young woman! 


My last best dressed at the Oscars and of course its Jennifer Anisten... this give is brave, all in red, and i think she looks fantastic... Vanentino is lush! I'm glad she has wore a bright colour as the Oscars did have a lot of really pale colours and then blacks and whites, so well done to you Jennifer Anisten! 
Sorry this post is quite a few days late, i'm so bad at time scheduling and have been really busy revising for my maths exams(today and monday)! So what did you think of the Oscars?

London Fashion Weekend















So here are my LFWend snaps!
I started off the day early with a 10:30 catwalk show by 'Issa'. It was there spring/summer13 collection, now i may have a hugely controversial opinion here but i'm really not keen on the s/s looks this year, i mean i'm just not a 'floral floaty dress' kinda girl, and this was the main designer Issa was showing! I much prefer the grunge looks, denim shorts, dark checked shirt tied at the waste, baggy tee's you know what i mean! However the flower head pieces the modals wore were pretty amazing! So detailed and probably the best part of the collection!
The actual show only last for about 5 minutes which was quite short i though, so after the show we went into the wings of somerset house for some shopping! Although i didn't actually buy anything (yes clothing at designer prices) it was really nice looking at the different designers collections. I had my photo snapped at Canon Fashion which was pretty cool and with a hot fella at the diet coke stand! After I'd looked round there wasn't much to do so we grabbed a taxi and went to do some oxford street shopping.. I LOVE OXFORD STREET! We spend a while in Liberty's looking at fabrics for my textiles course work but i could find anything which i liked and they had the most weirdest serving trays. naked bodies with dogs heads, WHAAAT?!! I then spend a fair few hours in Topshop trying on lots of clothes and ended up buying two jumpers, BOTH GORGEOUS! We then headed for some late lunch and the train ride back home. Over all i had a great day in london, i just wish the weather was a lot warmer, it was minus degres man that can't be good for anyone! Did anyone else go to LFWend? What did you think?

MY OUTFIT- LFWend





Top, Jeans, Bag: Topshop  Shoes: Ebay  Watch: Christmas prezzie Jacket: Superdry

Firstly sorry all the photos are not in line, this really really annoys me but i wanted to show you both photos and i have no idea how to get them both to line up hahaha!
So yesterday i went to the London Fashion Weekend at Somerset house, I'd have loved to go to the actual LFW but of course you have to be invited :( so i though going to the weekend would be just as good, well erm..
Anyway i have another post with some photos of the event and ill tell you much more about my day then!
This outfit is definitely my style, the grunge look rocking the monochrome(WHICH I LOVE) , yee man just call me miss monochrome! I'v been wanting a pair of black skinnies for a while now and i'm totally in love with the Leigh ones @ topshop, so yes i bought them, along with this top, as of course i needed a new outfit! This top is a size 8 but i love how its oversized, definitely a look which i like. I wore my chelsea boots with some little cream socks- super cute-  and my denim rucksack, which kind of made my outfit no longer all monochrome but i still loved it! Finally i put on this neon green watch to add a splash of colour to the look, of course i have no idea how to work the watch, but its a simple accessory i like and bringing two trends together i though was pretty cool. Did any of you bloggers go to the LFWend?!
