~ and i will hold you even though you're slightly mad.


hat: h&m
crop top: eBay, similar here (and only £2.99!)
shorts: missguided
denim jacket(old): oasis

Cheeky bit of denim on denim going on here, but we must all break some rules at some point, and here I regret nothing! Now, I know the shown crop top was not £2.99, but this is my friends which she purchased off of eBay, so while looking for my own to buy, I saw how cheap they can be! A lackin' in £££ at the moment though, so I'm waiting for the funds to purchase a few and probably in a few different colours too, they are so cute! 
These shorts have also become a staple in most outfits I wear, they are so flattering and I never have to worry about them, I used to have a pair similar but they'd always roll up and I'd have to fiddle with them constantly, not these! Honestly, if they're still on the website I recommend them if you are looking for a decent pair of hotpants, they are a dream.
The hat was a godsend, not even an exaggeration, I have a VERY large head. I imagine some of you chuckled whilst reading that, most people do, but seriously, I have a larger head than my Dad and my brother, a normal woman has a head circumference of around 52/3cm, mine is 58.5cm. Yes it's LARGE, and I'd been looking for a cute little hat for a very long time, trawling through endless high street shops, charity shops, eBay, online. But every one was either a one size, or the largest one was 55cm. But I am forever thankful to h&m, who's largest hat size is 58cm, hallelujah, and it fits perfectly!
The denim jacket is SO old, I got it 18+ months ago when working the Christmas sales at Oasis, was only £20 - staff discount. I don't know if it'll be around anywhere, but the style is still around everywhere!
In regards to life at the moment, I did a bit of an eBay haul today! There are a few bits up on my account which is here but as I've got a new account I can only put up 10 items for auction per month, ANGER! But I'm relying on Mumma Perrin to allow me her account, which is a older one and has no monthly limit like these fancy new ones.

So sorry! I know I promised birthday outfit posts, but alas my weekend was JAM PACKED, and rightly so! It was incredible! My birthday was such a lovely day and with it being payday as well I spent quite a lot of time online shopping, hehe. I got so many lovely things, my gorgeous best friend Danielle got me 18 presents for my 18th birthday, including a little package with a note saying "the one you have loose" and I opened it, it was a screw, the screw I have loose, she thinks she's funny. Along with a lot of leopard print things, ahh she knows me so well. I had a fabulous party too, lots of lovely people and was lovely to see them all again before I leave. It's not the greatest picture, and as you can tell I'm royally sloshed by this point of the evening, but this was my outfit!

Little aqua/turquoise mini dress, loved it! And then I went out last night as well, I'm probably going to do a quick post on that one tomorrow, as it's a Missguided playsuit it's incredible! Really cheeky shorts, but hey ho I do not care! I'll try and be more regular with posting from now on, been such a mental weekend. But thanks to those who wished me a happy birthday too, means a lot!

~ it's time you had the talk



| blouse: oasis | high-waisted shorts: river island |

Hello new blouse! Thank you work.. Taking all my hard-earned pennies right back from me. It's very vintage-esque and easy to wear, which makes it so loveable!
And I told you these shorts would become a MASSIVE part of my life, yep, it's happened. I wear them with absolutely everything possible.
Oh, and those sunglasses.. were £3.50! For me anyway.. I won a competition in work, selling 20 dresses in 1 day before any other staff member, and the winner got to choose a pair of sunglasses and receive 75% off the retail price, so they'd normally be £14, but I got them for so much less! I don't normally wear sunglasses, but I have tried to wear them more seeing as I got them SO cheap, and we've had some gorgeous weather here, so it's been the perfect time for it!
Final week of college! Over with the mask performances, now for the Musical Theatre showcase, finally! Can't wait, and my best friend comes home tomorrow for the summer! GAH, she's been greatly missed.

~ can I handle the seasons



| high-waisted shorts: river island | vest: oasis | biker jacket: zara |

Hello! I really liked this outfit, as it kind of looks like a playsuit or a 2 in 1 of some kind. As I predicted, I am LIVING in these little shorts, dressed up and dressed down, bang on trend.
I'm growing ever more aware of all my friends around me turning 18, tonight was my lovely friend Sophie's surprise meal and drinks affair for her 18th, and I realised, everyone who attended was 18, and I still have 2 and a half months left until I turn the big 1-8. I am a young'en with my birthday falling on 31st August, last one in the year.. And I'm growing impatient! 
Anyway, so it's only Thursday and I've already done 25.5 hours at work! And another 4 this weekend down in the concession in House of Fraser, and as I thought, the sale launch was MENTAL, so many customers, so many orders coming in! But honestly, it's such a great sale it's no surprise!
And, it's most definitely the home stretch as far as college is concerned, it's the final week before our end of year showcases, so we're doing technical runs, getting everything prepared and finishing off the final bits of work, and then we have a round off week after the shows, which I probably won't even go in for all of it, as I've kept up to date with my written work, which is a rarity! I'm so excited it's nearly over, then the next things are my final show in Plymouth with Music of the Night, my birthday and then 2 weeks later I move out and off up to London, oh it's all coming about quickly!
I'll have to grow up then, I guess..

~ call your girlfriend


| shirt and shorts: oasis |

Yo homies, terrible outfit post today, as I didn't even wear this today, but I wanted to blog so I thought I'd show you something different, as I wore my work uniform again today, for my 8 hour shift, yay(!)
Also, this was my first attempt at ombre nails, I'd tried them before under leopard print so even if it was awful I wouldn't have known. This photo isn't all that good, but I have one on my phone which shows it off quite well, I'm going to Instagram it as soon as I have my phone working again (big dispute with TalkMobile, they're saying I've gone over my contract by a ridiculous amount in only 1 week of switching contracts, and in the only week I barely used my phone, they have problems!)
We were prepping for THE BIGGEST SUMMER SALE EVER! Honestly guys, there is so much great stuff! And here are just a few examples..


As you can probably sense, I'm ordering every single one of the above items.. Okay maybe not all, but the black cutout dress and the royal blue maxi, definitely!
Check it out guys, I'm sure you'll love it!
