Daisychain goodies

I looooove getting presents in the mail :) 

Laura's edible competition prize came in the post a few days ago..... along with a gorgeous necklace!!!! (Which I matched my eyeshadow to... ahem, procrastination)

I absolutely adore the huge pendant and the delicate gold chain which is exactly the right length (don't you hate it when they're too long or short?). You can't really see that well in my crappy pictures but the round dark brown bits are actually wooden! So rustic. Here I am clutching my goodies like a 10 yr old and looking at the sweet card she sent with it.

Yup...... I already ate one in my exam this morning haha. Always comforting to have a sweet treat before 3 and a half hours of mad essay writing!

I'll be behind on comments for a while :( Life-defining exams continue next week on monday, tuesday and friday. Thank you for your comments on the last post, doing those jumping shots was so much fun!

PS. I cannot stop watching this video. Noot has the best wardrobe ever.

Back to basics.

5 hours ago: Topshop tweets about this jacket.

Now: Sizes 10 and 12 are sold out. Crazy! Its an amazing jacket though... I too am taken in by the "perfect" combination of white leather and studding, although I'd prefer if the studs were silver.

Do you think we're brainwashed by Topshop?? :( I mean it was only in the early 1990s when Topshop was really uncool, unfashionable and badly-made etc.

But there's no doubt about it... Their re-marketing, re-branding and re-invention strategy has really worked. Topshop is slowly but surely taking over the world....

-------------------------------------------

Moving onto my outfit... or lack thereof as I didn't actually leave my flat today. First exam is on friday and I'm utterly terrified! Let the cramming begin. But of course I'm managing to update my blog amidst the panic :)

Since I didn't leave the flat, comfort was highest priority!

Another topshop sale purchase: These adorable plimsolls with an inked brogue-style pattern all over it. Perfect summer footwear.

Bought a new tripod for my boyfriend :) But he said that part of the reason why I bought it for him was so he can take better pictures for the blog.... ahem... me? Never :)

Twitter: geisharocks

I'm on twitter: ....

EDIT.

Nope - I changed it to geisharocks

Add meee! Send a message, or something. I have no idea what to do on twitter actually. If you have it, maybe you can leave your username in the comments?

(Yup... Someone took geisharock! Sniff.)

London May Day march

Outfit of the day - It's all rainy again :(

The boots are an amazon purchase from a while back. I love how clunky they are and the wedge heel means they are so comfortable.

------------------------

Pashmina: Hong Kong
Belt: Uniqlo
Top (underneath waistcoat): Gap
Waistcoat: Zara
Jeans: Uniqlo (I want to slash these)
Boots: Dr Martens (amazon addiction)
Bag: United Colours of Benetton (amazingly soft and slouchy. and it matches my new boots!)

------------------------

In other news (widest interpretation of the word), I logged into my NEOPETS account yesterday. That is the level of procrastination I am willing to stoop to in order to avoid more studying. Was not impressed because my account has been open for about 9 years and the neopets I have still aren't interactive. They are still just pictures that sit there looking unhappy if they are dying (mine are).

If you didn't play neopets you will have no idea what I'm talking about and I just upped my loser score by about 530 points. It was cool when I was 12, yeah?

THE NEOPIAN MARKETPLACE. 

 I just realised they have a McDonalds shop - that is kind of hilarious.

Exams start next week... I really should stop blogging so often!

Topshop Thrills

Hello :)

Man, I look super awkward in these photos. It was really late at night! But anyway... This is the Topshop top I bought from the sale. I Love love love it. It's so comfortable and I love the drapy details and the zip running up the middle. I'm wearing it with my New Look bandage skirt and my brand new shiny magical amazing stupendous Topshop Emma Cook boots (a gargantuan THANK YOU SO MUCH AHHHHH to Super-Shini who saved the day with these in my size!!!).

I love the clunkiness of these boots. It makes me feel like ROCKING OUT. In a peach-coloured sort of way. Yeah, laugh away.

Tried it on with some bleached out topshop ankle zip jeans... Just for the fun of dressing in head-to-toe Topshop! :)

There are so many more new items coming my way, just you wait and see! So many, in fact, that I'm almost ashamed to show them all off. Hah.

You guys are the best :) Thank you for visiting and commenting!

Darling buds of May

Hello my lovelies. Sorry for such a long absence! And sorry I look so tired in these photos... My exams start NEXT WEEK (ahhhhh) and the stress will continue for 2 weeks so once that long week of fear and terror is over, I shall try and get back into the swing of things!

Firstly I want to say THANK YOU :D to the beautiful Laura of DaisyChain Dreams because I won her giveaway yayy. I can't wait to receive my package!!! Yum yum yum....

But before the oh-crap-only-a-few-days-before-exams panic period starts, I thought I'd show off a few (understatement) new purchases. I have bought far too many things lately, mainly because I'm stuck in my room revising and am forever tempted by online shopping!

The blue poofy skirt is from the topshop sale and is SO MUCH MORE POOFY than I expected it to be... I absolutely love it!

I have given up the search for Emma Cook boots and will wait patiently until someone tires of theirs and takes pity on me :( ..... So I bought chunky heeled creepers off ebay instead :)

The black body is from.... uh.... OK OK, NEW LOOK AGAIN. They are made out of stretchy cotton and don't cling to the body - just skim it. And they're like 8 pounds or something! Fully recommended. I want to get my hands on a stripy version.

JUMP! Hehe.

YESSSS I got the hair flick downnnn. Sorry about the boobage.

Anddd my beloved vintage denim jacket.

Perfect summer outfit!

Bye for now :)
