Improvise

And to think I never bothered to make my pictures larger before. Infinitely clearer! Scarily big, in fact. I'm not sure if I'll keep doing it hahaha. What do you guys think?

I shouldn't be posting at all but the weather was too tempting. I decided to kill 2 birds with one stone and catch some sun whilst taking outfit pictures.  The studded dress is a vintage DKNY skirt that I've hiked up and belted and the beaded headband is actually a choker.

Staring lovingly at my Docs.

Hope that you're all having wonderful weekends! :)

Army green

Attempting to blog from my phone! It's such a glorious bank holiday weekend with the sun shining down and it kills me to be sitting indoors studying! I will post the competition prizes on Tuesday when everything re-opens. These giveaways are really fun, I definitely want to do more of them. My sister and I may pop outside later to buy gingerbread men and run around in sandals and floaty dresses. Until then, here's what I wore yesterday to stroll around a nearby park. I will never get sick of these emma cook's and they were a breeze to wear on springy turf!

--- Got the TFS invite, thanks guys :)! ---

PPS. I got the army jacket in urban outfitters aaages ago. In the men's section. My (male) friend and I both went clubbing in it once, hah.

And the winner is...

Congratulations, Eeli of Aphex Nation! Your bit of paper was the lucky one that got picked out of my hat (yup, I did the whole drawing-from-a-hat shebang)

The winged horse topshop necklace will be on its way to you ASAP :)

I know this isn't really how a giveaway really goes but I wanted to give SECOND and THIRD prizes too because of the number of lovely people that entered that deserve more chances to win things! So I have dug around in my jewellery box for more topshop goodies that have been abandoned for far too long and am about to pick out 2 more bits of paper...

SECOND PRIZE goes to: 

Camille of Fashion Wrap!

and

THIRD PRIZE goes to: 

Kate of Teenage Coffee Addict!

Congratulations you two :)! Topshop goodies will be heading your way as well!

Could you all email your postal addresses to lebilletdoux@gmail.com please?

My sister is arriving for her half term so I must dash!

Put the boot in

-------------- EDIT -------------

I did it! I actually won something on ebay!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSS. But I didn't get the standard 8-hole with yellow stitching because as Cruz of Denim on Denim (check out his sweet blog) rightly says, I think they're getting a bit too trendy now that everyone and their mum has them. I would just feel like I'm hopping on the bandwagon 5 months too late, haha. I got the proper kick-ass Docs, the ones my sister wore as a kid to brutally kick boys with during football games (I think it was just her... vicious child! Love ya really sis xx). 

Do you LIKE?? If you don't.... I don't care because I friggin love them :-)

Although I am thinking... WHY do this pair not have yellow stitching? Does that mean they're fake?! :-( Apparently they are "boys" shoes - does this make a difference???  Any help on this issue would be very welcome.

Should I take the plunge? The patent white's aren't getting the love they should be but I'm longing for the classic blacks now that my gap motorcycle boots are growing old. Answers on a postcard. (or a comment).
