It never stopped raining

Today really felt like the first day of Autumn. That lovely late summer weather we'd been having is so gone!
So I wrapped up. This picture is taken at my new uni house, I just wanted to show off how cute the windows are. I am wearing:
Lobster jumper - Primark (Men's section)
Leggings - Primark
Satchel - Paper Planes
Slippers - Marks and Spencer - IT WAS COLD OKAY!
I love this jumper, its thick and warm but the pictures are still summery. I'm gonna try to hold onto those summer feels for as long as possible guys.

Christmas jobs

Today I went out to try and find somewhere that was hiring people for Christmas jobs. I have a form to hand in to TK Maxx, and the Disney shop said I should bring my CV in tomorrow. But Lush had already taken on all their Christmas staff and it would have been really cool to work there :( Never mind though!

It was me and Tom's date day today, we went to the 'Winter gardens and museum' in Sunderland. It's free entry and there was lots more museum exhibits than I'd been expecting. There was also some art exhibitions, one was off some embroidered scenes by Grayson Perry and they were so good! When you stood back it really looked like they'd been painted. 

My favourite part was where they had items from the 'recent' past (about 30's-90's) from people's homes. There was stuff like the first mobile phones and it showed you how what people eat for their tea has changed through time! 

 There was a teeny play house, so obviously we went inside.

"Would you like some tea?"

This is me, very busy, hanging my washing up to dry.

There was a few live animals too. In the winter gardens section there were Koi Carp, and in the 'living world' exhibit there were turtles, a tarantula, and some fish. I may have spent a bit too long watching the turtles, but they were just too cute!

Flannel shirt outfit

Today was really hot too, so this time I wore a black stretchy skirt and long vest, with my flannel shirt over the top. I don't usually wear plain tops but this outfit gave me the chance to show off some necklaces.
It was such a nice day that we decided to take a short cut through the park on our way into town. I'm still exploring the area around my new house though.

This was my outfit from yesterday for going for lunch at a Chinese all you can eat buffet. I always find it hard to dress for all you can eat, because I need to wear something that won't be too restricting on my tummy! Also we're having some later summer sun so didn't want to wear leggings (which are stretchy and comfy, but too hot right now).

That one time I had a decent outfit...

This outfit was about 2 weeks ago when I was staying at Tom's. I am wearing:

Black leotard- Lipsy

Dagger print shorts- H&M

I love this leotard so much, it's good to have a plain black top to go with everything. This one is super good because its a leotard so it's stretched over your body and you don't get rumples on your tummy. My mum got me it as a random gift (it was in the sale, we're not loaded) but it has come in V handy!

 I've tried not to buy clothes from high street shops over the summer, to save money but I really liked these shorts. To start with I don't have any white shorts and I thought it would make a change. Also I thought the daggers were cute, they match one of Tom's tattoos, hee, cute. I would also like to point out that my legs aren't burned they just like that way in these photos, don't know why.

In these pictures I have pink dip dyed hair (and a streak on one side) I used Directions hair dye for this, but I have to say it wasn't as good as I'd been expecting. It looks bright in these pictures but I had only dyed it the day before. I wouldn't recommend it. Not this shade anyway. Anyone had any better experiences with Directions hair dye?

Outfit of the day

Jumper- thrifted - £1

Shorts- thrifted and customised - £1

Vans- eBay - £3 approx

I got this school jumper from an indoor market in Wales, and it turned out that it was my friend's old school! Ha! I had wanted a school jumper for a while, one with an embroidered badge, and I really liked the colour of this one.

The shorts were originally a big pair of jeans, about 2 sizes too big for me. I cut off the legs to about the knee and then rolled up the rest of the material. I put in a few stitches at the insides and outsides of the leg, just to help keep them rolled up. Because the jeans were too big for me I really have to hoik these shorts in with a belt, but that's the look I wanted. I was thinking 90's style shorts. They look great with baggy tshirts and jumpers tucked into them.

 The Vans were second hand off eBay, they are blue but very faded and have some fraying on the back of the heels. But I liked this about them, I hate when trainers are too new and white.

Vintage 2 piece set - for sale

Selling this on etsy: www.rosiebits.etsy.com

It's a matching blouse and skirt set, probably from the 70's. The brand is St Michael which is vintage Marks and Spencer, and it's a UK size 12. The skirt is a wraparound style :) 

Enjoy!

Sand in between my toes

Today I went I the beach with my mum and some family friends. I love getting the sand on my feet so I fashioned a covering out of my hoodie and took off my tights! :) There were little rock pools and we collected types of seaweed! Nothing like finding sand in your shoes and pockets when you get home.... Or days later! 

Cadwell Park

Hi, just got back from a weekend of camping at Cadwell Park and watching the British super bikes with Tom and his family. I've actually got quite into the racing now, it's intense when they're all so close together! It was really fun and I liked scranning on bacon butties in the caravan! Managed to keep the tent dry and free from bugs too; win! 

On the Sunday night there was a charity cycle race and there were some great fancy dress costumes including two amazing minions! Think it might be Kevin and Dave? Aww.
