HELP ME I'M DROWNING IN DISSERTATION | An OOTD

Hi m'lovelies

 

While the majority of the blogosphere is loving life at fashion week, today I spent the majority of my time at uni, slaving away in the library on my dissertation.. which fyi, is due in 6 WEEKS. Jesus. I'm trying not to panic because I feel like I'm on the right track, however I also feel like that's impossible. Purely because I will have written a dissertation by the end of April, which is a TERRIFYING thought. Dissertations are for smart people. Academics. Not me. WOT.  Nevermind, by June I will hopefully be an actual Honours Graduate, which I guess is pretty cool. On another note, I can't believe that its been a YEAR since I interned down in London and got the chance to attend LFW. It's such an amazing time to be in London, as the buzz around a city full of creatives is like no other. That said, I will definitely be glued to all forms of social media this week, and I particularly can't wait for Burberry on Monday because as of right now, Christopher Bailey can do no wrong in my eyes!

Jacket : Primark : £25 | Dress : Zara : £29.99 | Boots : Topshop : £35.00

 

Uni breakdowns aside, I absoloutely love this dress. Zara TRF has been amazing so far this season. The never ending sale is finally over, and its packed full with perfect transition pieces from A/W into spring which includes a lot of lovely bohemian styles and colours. Its a gorgeous print, and works both during the day and dressed up at night with a belt and some heels. Another favourite from todays outfit is definitely the trench. Until I can afford a real one, Its basically my cheapskate interpretation of the infamous burberry trench, and for £25? LOVE.

Basic 70s Boho OOTD

 Hi m'lovelies 

Firstly I want to thank everyone for the amazing response over my last post! It took me a really long time to get right, and I was a tad nervous about posting it, but I'm so glad I did. I've had so much positive feedback, and it motivates me to continue with similar kinds of posts in the future. Today though, here I am again with ANOTHER all black outfit post (shock). I swear I have been wearing a lot more colour recently, but I wasn't feelin' it today so...

 

I nipped into town for some light shopping and lunch as well as a long overdue eye test. It was such a beautiful day, and the sun was out - therefore I got to wear my sunglasses for the first time this year. I was quite skeptical as to whether or not it was ‘warm’ enough to wear a dress without tights... but I braved the Scottish weather, and it was actually the perfect temperature!

 Coat : Zara : £49.99 | Sunglasses : H&M : £4.99 

Last semester, I got the chance to do a piece of coursework which involved creating a capsule collection for S/S15, which basically meant that I got to do a lot of drooling over the 70s gear forecasted for Spring/Summer. Flares, Bohemian, A-lines, V-Necks.. you name it, I love it! Since then, I've been investing in my 70s inspired wardrobe for the season, and I feel like this outfit incorporates it all! 

Dress : Zara TRF : £25.99 | Boots : Public Desire : £39.99 | Bag : H&M : £29.99

As soon as I saw this dress, I absolutely fell in love with it and £25.99, you can't go wrong! I wore it with a Topshop crochet skirt underneath, which again adds to the 70s vibe. These over-the-knee boots have definitely been one of my favourite buys in a while, as I searched for a pair in my size for ages. I finally found them on Public Desire, and they were much cheaper than on the high street, bonus!

MARCH?!

 So this weekend we decided to go to another part of the city that we hadn't been to before: Kensington. This trip obviously included a visit to Harrods, which was emotional to say the least. I hadn't been before but I love department stores, so I was excited. The difficult part was definitely the cosmetics hall, but I was good and treated myself to a Macaroon instead from the food hall.  

Jumper : Forever 21 | Skirt : Topshop | Bag : Zara | Boots : River Island

March definitely means that I'm allowed to start introducing more summery colours into my everyday wear as well as less layers. Without getting too carried away though as its still pretty cold, I compromised with the cropped baby blue jumper from Forever 21 - which is great for the in between weather as its extremely cosy.

Denim Jacket : Vintage Levi | Hat : Forever 21

I then popped on my favourite denim jacket and beanie to dress it down a little. The jacket is vintage Levi, and it was only £30, which is definitely a bargain in comparison to the ones from Urban Outfitters. My favourite part of this OOTD is definitely the bag. My flatmate Chloe got it and I couldn't resist snapping it up. 'Stressed' on one side and 'Well Dressed' on the other - Love.

Sunglasses : Camden Market | Necklace : Topshop

With accessories I added my favourite collar necklace which I got in the Topshop sale and my tortoise shell sunnies from Camden Market. The rest of the weekend we kept it pretty quiet, taking a trip to Selfridges on Sunday - Making it a weekend of department stores and drooling over designer bags which sadly none of us can afford as of yet. I also have a week off this week so its going to be good to catch up with uni coursework and plenty episodes of the hills.
