Stress relief

What a gorgeous Daria editorial!

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

Thank you darlings for your comments :)

Taking a little break whilst I relax at home with the family who have flown in from various parts of the world. Eating too much and sleeping in my own bed always calms me down.

Also need to crack on with the revision for final year exams. Scary :(

Here's a picture of me at the Kensington Roof Gardens - when days were less stressful.

Dress - Arrogant Cat

Pleas e excuse the granny cardigan :) It was chilly outside!

Summer in the city

I'm craving summer even more every time I look at my new header - Courtesy of Erika :) 

Thank you sweetie!

Peplum Party

I adore this little dress from Miss Selfridge but haven't had the chance to go instore to try it on. 

The sun was shining madly today so I tried to recreate the look with a top my aunt bought me during her christmas trip to America, which I never thought I'd wear at the time. 

YEAH DENIM ON DENIM. I know, shocker right? So sue me. 

Since I was going down the whole TEXAS TUXEDO route anyway, I thought I'd throw on my new Dr Martens "Toki" boots and go all-out cowgirl. The boots are SO COMFORTABLE, even with the little heels they have that I don't even care what anyone thinks of them. I've ordered them in black too and will wear them until they fall apart. If any of you are looking for some standard calf-high leather boots for under £25 then go check these babies out on Amazon UK (my only means of shopping in this period of revision).

See how sunny it is?! Glorious :)

I love this slouchy cardigan - it's so light but so snuggly with its billowing sleeves and chunky knit. I bought it a couple of years ago from the men's section of a store at London Fashion Weekend.

The boots!

Sittin' on the dock of the bay

I hate the fact that our tutors assigned a huge coursework just before term ended meaning that its cutting into my revision time! I should be revising but instead I'm working on this silly piece of coursework :(

I am absolutely LONGING for summer...... The two pictures above are part of my ultimate favourite editorial EVER :)

PS. The Dr Martens boots I ordered came today and they're SO comfy... Tempted to order them in black too. They look better in real than on screen :)

 I think I'll just skip the whole sandal = summer thing and wear boots all year round!

Trautes Heim, Glück allein.

Action shot! 

Met up with my family today and enjoyed a day off from studying to wander around Chinatown and have a gluttonous dinner in a pub near Barnes. I see my family so little that it's almost strange to be all together! We are very loud :)

I got the poncho in a market in Oxford - What do you think? 

I was actually a little nervous about wearing it! "Why?", you may ask.....

My last venture into the world of ponchos was when I was 12 and I completely thought I was working my new hippie poncho. I noticed a boy looking at me whilst I was waiting to be picked up and thought he was admiring my fashion savvy..........

....... until he came over and was like 

"Excuse me........ Why are you dressed like Jesus?" :-( 

I ran home crying to my mum and haven't worn one until now. Hurtful at the time but I think I'm over it, just ;-)

Yay for outdoor pictures again!
