An Imagined Place



Headband - Primark
Top - River Island
Watch - Michael Kors
Skirt - Primark
Shoes - Converse

It's great to see that summer seems to be on its way, but in the world of the student that means only one thing: deadlines. I have three essays to write and one exam to study for... maybe I should be doing that rather than taking outfit photos and writing on my blog?

This skirt was an absolute bargain, it was only £1! Spotted in the reduced section of Primark (student budgeting at its finest) the bright green makes a simple skater skirt a statement piece. Such a bold coloured piece can sometimes be difficult to wear, but as it was so cheap it doesn't matter if I hardly wear it. 

After seeing all of the Coachella photos on Instagram, I wanted to add a festival vibe to today's outfit, which is why I went for the floral headband. It's a really summery piece which makes the outfit feel especially cute, and a backcombed updo is always a great option for unwashed hair. 

How are you guys preparing for summer?

Hopscotch







Jeans - Red Herring
Cardigan - Moda at Asda
Bracelet - Pandora
Sandals - Primark


Today was the first day that I've worn sandals this year, and it's great to know that spring has truly arrived! Naturally, this being England, I couldn't leave the house in April without having a cardigan just in case the weather tuned cool.

These jeans were a great find in the Red Herring range at Debenhams - they're called Holly! They're supposed to be anklegrazers but as you can see, because I'm a little on the short side, they don't really have that effect on me. However I was really drawn to the pale colour, and figured the slightly shorter length means that they'll look good with sandals and ballet pumps through the summer.

The nail varnish I'm wearing is my new favourite shade, after receiving a set of miniatures for Christmas, I will certainly be buying the full-size version when it inevitably runs out.

I'm not opposed to supermarket clothes, and this Asda cardigan is no exception! I've seen very similar styles (for a lot more money) in places like Urban Outfitters. With a student budget to contend with, I like to think that it's more about how you wear something than how much it cost.

I've been home from university this past week, and it's been lovely to relax at home with family and catch up with old friends. Today I went on a very unsuccessful shopping trip with an old school friend, but getting 40% student discount on our Pizza Express lunch went down very well indeed!

What have you all been doing this Easter?

OOTD: Brain Cell Overload





Playsuit - River Island 
Coat - Ark 
Shoes - Converse

Winter seems to be finally coming to an end, which is why I've adopted a less snuggly outfit than yesterday. Converse are my favourite shoes as they are incredibly comfortable and go with every outfit, making my everyday look more casual. 

It is still very windy today despite the sun, so I decided to let my hair dry naturally and do its own thing today, I didn't see the point in curling or straightening it for it to just get messed up anyway!

What are you guys doing today?
