Black Lab

Hi :)
Today is absolutely freezing and my radiators are not coming on -.-
I had to leave the house today even though it's ridiculously windy and keeps pouring with rain at random points throughout the day. I had science, but at least I didn't have to cross the bridge to get there because yesterday I thought I was going to get blown off it. The charm of the North East everyone.
Outfit...
Checked shirt - hand me down - Topshop
Black Lab vest - o-mighty.com
High waisted shorts - diy
Grey wool tights - Primark
Converse - Office

BLACK LAB VEST
For anyone who doesn't know, this is a jokey version of Black Flag's logo (they're a band). They're one of Tom's favourite bands and Black Labradors are my favourite dogs so I thought this was an appropriate top to own. I also bought the other one which says 'Pug Flag' and has 4 pugs, because guess what... PUGS ARE MY SECOND FAVOURITE DOG! It just seemed too good to ignore that those two dogs were the two options for these tops. You should really check out the website because they have some amazing unique looking stuff! I want so many things from there, but I put myself on a ban today; I'm gonna try and not buy myself any clothes until Christmas. This is the website - o-mighty.com

DIY HIGH WAISTED SHORTS
I'm wearing these shorts again that I made. They used to be a big pair of Mom type jeans from Asda, but I got them for £1 from the charity shop. I thought I'd start off practicing on a cheap pair of jeans in case I messed them up.

VINTAGE RAIN COAT
The only good thing about it raining today is that I got to wear my new coat! I bought this in the summer holidays and this is the first chance I've had to wear it. I got it in the sale at a vintage shop in Newcastle for £20. It's so cute! The sleeves are a bit short but I don't care because I love it so much <3 


Thanks for reading! x

Elephant necklace

Hi! This is Saturday's outfit post, sorry it's late 
Cardigan -thrifted - £2.50
Fred Perry - hand me don
Shorts - diy
Leggings - Primark
Moon & Stars shoes - eBay - approx £4
Elephant necklace - diy

I got given this Fred Perry shirt off my Dad because it didn't fit him anymore, yay! Free clothes!

I made these shorts out of a big pair of cheapy jeans from the charity shop (£1). They're high waisted 90's style ones, really cinched in.

I found this plastic elephant charm in a box of Tom's stuff from when he was little. I bought some black cord and made it into a necklace. I love it so much and whenever I wear it it reminds me of Tom :)
