:(


Put my denim shorts on ebay but decided that I was too attached to them as I bought them in a lovely vintage sale with my boyfriend and had such great fun, so basically I regretted it in the last hour. However, there were no bids or extra views for ages so I thought I'd let it run down until it didn't sell and then SOMEONE BID ON THEM IN THE LAST MINUTE. I CRY. I am such a shitty ebay seller, obviously, as I should have just terminated the auction whilst it had no bids. Now I have to give away my shorts :( :( . I am feeling very upset and overly emotional due to an overdose of haribos and am wallowing in self-pity. Sniff. I hate ebay!

Hippy hippy shake

Flared eva jeans from the Topshop sale :) 

Worn with creepers, Kirsty's scarf and a Kate Moss for Topshop tank top (the only redeeming feature of her collections so far, in my opinion!). I wore this with.... my pink leather jacket. OTT? Hahaha.

Lovvvvvve this scarf. It is as long and drapey as promised!

Swish swish :)
Have to get back to revision/watching BBC iPlayer now! 
Will answer comments when the bulk of exams are done on the 17th. Thank you for all your lovely lovely comments you guys are literally getting me through this stressful period :)

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: ....

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!
