Birds can fly so high

This is my outfit from a few day ago, but I haven't had the chance to make a post about it until now.

Bird jumper - charity shop - £1.50
Checked shirt - charity shop - £1
Gold chain - charity shop
Black skirt - H&M - £3
Grey wool tights - Primark - £3

I got this jumper recently from a charity shop, they were having a half price sale on the clothes. I used to have the t-shirt with birds on like this, from Topshop, but I had to get rid of it this summer because it had turned kind of grey because I'd worn it so much. I was so pleased when I found this jumper in the charity shop because it can replace my bird t-shirt plus it's like the winter version! 

This is the shirt I'm wearing under the jumper. It's green and blue check. I got it from a charity shop for £1 and it has cute darned patched on it.

Also check out Tom's gorgeous pictures behind me! He's so good at drawing >.<

The Liebster Award



This is a really cool idea! I got nominated to do this by  Jodie so here we go :)

The rules: 

1) Link the blogger(s) that nominated you 

2) Answer the 10 questions your nominator has asked 

3) Keep the chain growing by nominating 10 of your favourite bloggers who have less than 200 followers, and let them know

4) Create 10 interesting questions for your nominees to answer

My Answers:

1) If you could travel in time, where would you go? 
- This is a difficult one to choose. I think probably to the 80's and I would buy myself loads of clothes and go to loads of parties with my well dressed friends. But I'd also like to go to ancient Egypt just to look around because I find them really interesting.

2) What make up item could you not live without? 
- Foundation. I'm not confident enough about my skin to not wear foundation when I go out. I use dream matte mousse.

3) If you could only watch one TV show for the rest of your life, what would it be? 
- Friends. Probably a boring answer but you just can't get sick off it. Plus there's a lot of episodes so you'd be able to spread it out more and make it last longer.

4) What's your favourite clothes shop? 
-Probably Primark because it's so cheap and it gets a good rang of stuff in. Either that or this vintage shop in Newcastle which I think is called Best Vintage, it has all the type of vintage clothes I like and none of the stuff I don't (like longer formal dresses).

5) The best holiday you've ever been on? 
Japan when I was nine. I went with my Mum and stayed with her friend who had moved there to be an English teacher. He helped us do loads of amazing stuff we couldn't have done without him. Like I got to take part in this parade/festival and join in a dance that one of the schools was performing in it. We also went to the Disneyland in Tokyo.

6) What would your idea of a perfect day be? 
Me and my Mum watch some episodes of a programme we like in the morning while we have breakfast, then we both go and get ready. We go do a table top sale/market stall and we both manage to get rid of a load of stuff and make a decent profit. The weather's not too cold but not too hot either. On the way back we would stop at little Sainsburys and buy some snacks and treats, definitely one of those pizza swirls and a cheese twist from the bakery bit. When we get back in I'd make her a pot of tea and she'd make me a coffee because we're both better at making the other one's drinks. We'd spend the evening watching box sets and eating our snacks and chatting and sharing all our in jokes :)

7) What country have you never been to, but really want to visit?
Probably Australia because the weather's so nice and everyone goes on about it being an amazing holiday place.

8) Favourite band/artist? 
All time low

9) If you could be anyone for a day, who would you be and why? 
I would be my friend Maya from Wales because she is awesome at life. She has a really good attitude to everything and I love the way she interacts with people. I'd like to be able to do that :)

10) What 3 words best describe you? 
Happy, Funny and Excitable.
