Urban Outfitters jumper
self-made earrring
random rings

I found a bunch of what I assume are mini key-rings (the wonders one can find in my house...) and they are perfectly sized for rings. Rumi so has it right, these are wonderfully non-distracting, unlike all other rings. And I didn't even see that post until after I started wearing these. That's how fashionable I am.

In other news, most people I know seem to have gotten in trouble with my school's dress code...this means detention on Monday will be fun (non-sarcastic). :)

Urban Outfitters jumper
Miss Selfridge dress
House of Holland tights
Zara boots

This was the last day before the dress code became even stricter...sigh. But yeah, my beautiful tights which were a Christmas present, I want to wear them every day because they're so fun (it took us almost a whole psychology lesson to work out that they spell "House of Holland"... diagonally downwards). Also, the cutest, snuggliest ballet jumper ever. :)

Topshop shirt
Topshop pants
Primark shoes (with half the straps cut off)

My sparkly pants aka my new favourites. I want to wear them every day and twinkle. This is also what one might call a casual cocktail pant, if one was a magazine dispensing fashion advice with a pechant for mildly amusing fashiony words. And with "a heel" (not two, that's so normal), and a splash of sun its a wonderful outfit. :)

self-made collar
mother's shirt
old leggings
Topshop heels

Going for a cold spring feel here... Much as I adore this collar and the print on it (thank you Miu-Miu), I hardly ever wear it because it has a very annoying and unsightly fastening because I was too much of a fool to realise that instead of having to make the whole thing from scratch, I could have chopped off the collar of an old shirt... :)

Hello disaster

What's this, a new and improved look? And the first day of a new year? Ok, honestly a coincidence. But yeah, I've decided to do some shameless self-advertising...
So:

FLICKR

LOOKBOOK.nu

TWITTER


Links to all three are on the side of the site. And I even co-ordinated profile pictures because I am that organised. Resolution time.
1. I will try (very hard!) to update the blog, the flickr, the LB and the twitter in synch regularly. At the very least, twice a week.
2. I will try to use twitter more than that. Hello twitter app.
3. I will respond to comments as soon as I see them.
4. I will comment more on blogs I read because I know just how lovely it is to get a comment. (...That's not intentional emotional blackmailing to you)
5. I will find time to do personal artistic projects.
Where there is a will there is a way. And if not, we're all gonna die in December anyway. :)
