Who knew that Scotland could be this sunny?

Hi m'lovelies

The weather has been absolutely gorgeous recently in Scotland and to be honest I've not seen much of it. Today I finally managed to drag myself away from my dissertation (or rather my dissertation procrastination) in order to rummage through Aberdeen's vintage shops while soaking up as much sun as possible. Its officially two weeks today until the hand in, which is pretty bloody frightening BUT I'm starting to see the finish line. HOORAY!

Other than writing my dissertation I've not really been doing much with my life. I did get a haircut recently though which was a HUGE change for me. I've literally had the same haircut for about 6 years (at least), which is insane. I was worried that I wouldn't suit shorter hair and I was literally waiting to burst out into tears when the hairdresser cut it all of in a pony.. but surprisingly it felt amazing.  I can't tell you how annoyed I am for not doing it a long time ago and I now believe in the power of a new hair style to totally cheer you up. It's easier to manage and my hair now looks 100x thicker and healthier. If you're considering going for the chop, do it - midi/short styles are bang on trend right now and I can guarantee that you won't look back!

 Hii m'lovelies!

Its been a good two weeks since my last post, and I've been busy coming up with a lot of new and hopefully exciting ideas for you all! I'll be posting much more in the next few weeks, and I'm also going to be featured on Scotcampus's 'Today I'm Wearing' section from the 28th of this month, so watch out for that! This post involves another item that I purchased from my recent shopping trip to Primark. At only £8 this Paisely print kimono is gorgeous and perfect to chuck on when its warm yet still a bit windy, which it often is in Scotland at this time of year! I took a walk in the countryside with one of my best friends and her dog Diego, who kept being cheeky and photo bombing... good thing he's cute as a button.

I'm wearing a white chiffon dress which I purchased a few years ago from Topshop, and then a white lace crop top, also from Topshop! I think the top just adds more dimensions to the outfit and gives it a more 70's feel.

Collar Necklace : Topshop | Tube Necklace : Primark 

 

I'm an absolute sucker for silver jewellery so I decided to jazz the outfit up with a choker which was only £8 in the Topshop sale! I then added a smaller necklace and an Arm Cuff, both from Primark. The sunglasses worn here are one of my favourite pairs because I love over sized sunnies and I think the yellow half rim really makes them stand out! 

Bag : Zara : £19.99 | Sunglasses : H&M | Bracelets : Primark | Trainers : Nike Air Force 1 : £67.00

I bought the 'Stressed but Well Dressed' clutch in London from Zara in March, and its literally been my go to bag ever since. I think this outfit is pretty 'girlie' - so I finally chucked on a pair of trainers to make it more casual.

Student Loans, What would we do without them?!

Being a poor temporarily unemployed student, my summer wardrobe wasn't looking too promising after London.. until my favourite day of the month, SAAS day. Although it felt like a long time coming, I managed to finally pick up a few bargains. I'd had my eye on a pair of chunky, gladiator style sandals for a while and had seen a few online, but resisted because I hate buying shoes off of the internet due to my annoying in between sized feet. I then stumbled upon these babies from New Look for only £24.99, which were even cheaper with my student discount.. boom!

Our course then held a car boot sale to raise money for our Fashion Show and the supported charity, Mrs Murray's Cats and Dogs home. I spotted this gorgeous Kimono, never worn with the tag on it, all for a lovely £3, another Bargain!
