a tiny bit late?












right so my life has been so hectic just lately due to coursework deadlines at college, exams and just so many goings on! so im actually only just posting my pictures of some of my boxing sale findings, im so terrible sorry! i haven't even managed to get pictures of all of my items however as soon as they are back at my house, ill put them straight onto here for you!

The top image is my beautiful velvet skirt only £3 in the sale at primark, my only complaint a bout it is that it always always always rides up and i end up walking around with what looks like no skirt, but its beaut so i'll let it off. My next buy is this leopard print blouse from debenhams, i think it was £10 and worth every penny, some of it is a little over the top with the ruffles, but i kinda like how different it is.
After this is me cheating because this is my beaut leather skirt i was telling you about, i didnt get it in the sales, its actually off ebay for £8 including post and packaging, major bargain! i bought some leather shorts however i haven't got a picture of them yet, there beaut!!!
Next down are my 'treggings' from topshop, there so great for going to college in because there comfy and look great so there all round just great! Next down is my jumper from ryan vintage on oldham street, this was £15 if i remember rightly, a little bit overpriced for a second hand shop however its beaut and so warm, worth every single penny.
The stripy top below this and the green top are both from topshop at £15 each, still a little pricey for saying that there in the sale but they go with everything. I wear them with my topshop treggings for college as it makes me feels comfy; i also bought some little boots from topshop in the sale however i still need to photograph them, im so unorganised! hahaha
Next down is the sleeveless polo neck, yes it was alittle risky purchasing a polo neck however its from next and was £20, so i can wear it for work with leggings and brogues; if i havent already mentioned, i work at next haha.
This flowery top next down, i bought from rewear on oldham street however i wasnt keen on the long sleeves so i got my brain into gear and thought i'd cut the sleeves off, im never normally this adventurous but i thought id give it ago! and here we are, im left with a lovely blouse underneath it-well worth being abit risky!
Next down is some cute little shorts from h and m, im getting my summer wardrobe already, i love how prepared i am!! and just below this is a skirt from retro rehab for just £10, MAJOR BARGAIN, its beaut however its to long for me coming to my knees, i dont mean to sound slaggy but i prefer them shorter. But thats nothing that my sewing machine can't sort out, so ill be rolling it up a few times and stitching - getting creative once again!

Wow, how long is this message?! well now im promising you that i WILL post more frequently and ill post the rest of my pictures as soon as i can! oh and did i mention that i go to paris a week today, eeeeekk, way to exciting!xxxxxxx

leather, leather, leather!

so todays the day i became an official ebayer! my friends are always talking about all the cheap finds they can find on there so i thought id give it a go :)
as soon as i signed up i searched leather skirts as i really really want one and after searching through all the pages i came across a mini one and including post and packaging guess how much it was? £8.74!!!!!!!!!!!! MAJOR BARGAIN IF YOU ASK ME!
so i thought i'd come straight on here and tell all you lovely people about my amazing findings! as soon as it arrives which is 2-3days, ill post a picture of it straight on here, im sure youll be dying with jealousy. i'll be sticking it on with a long sleeved cream chiffon blouse, patterened black tights and either brogues for day time or wedges for nighttime and im sorted :) i think its a possibilty that it'll be my new year outfit?! hmm, well goodbye for now :)........

hello world :)

heyy, yes im new to all this, i actually dont have a clue what im doing but it looks like fun to keep everyone updated with the goings on in my life and all the amazing things going on around us! so as i start to publish more posts you'll probably start to realise that i get amused by absolutely anything; everything seems to please me :) i actually love fashion and all the amazing finds that there are in the most unexpected stores that are so so cheap to! Oldham street in manchester has to be one of the best places for this; i hate rummaging around all the 'untidy looking' shops but this place keeps me going for hours - even if that is a slight exxaggeration haha.
Well thats my first post done and i now feel so much better about myself! Well goodbye for now and ill be posting another as soon as i can......
night :)
