Sunday was sunny - outfit post

Hi, sorry I'm posting this a day late, but yesterday was my last free day before I went back to uni. It turned out to be really hot compared to the weather we've been having recently! I needed some black tights so I went into town with Tom, and although I was very strict and didn't allow myself to buy anything but tights in Primark, I did end up having a look round the charity shops and buying a few bits. After this I'll make a post to show you what I bought.

Checked shirt - Thrifted

Tshirt - Present

Glittery leggings - Primark

Jelly Sandals - Juju jellies (website)

This shirt was £1 from a charity shop, it's really cute because it has bits that have been patched with a similar looking material, and I think maybe a little Grandad's wife fixed it for him. It's really good for throwing on over an outfit if it's a bit too cold to have your arms out.

The t-shirt was a present from my Mum's boyfriend, its a Jaws t-shirt, as in the film about the shark. I love it because it has a nineties look, plus it's navy blue which is a fantastic colour for a t-shirt to be. Because it was a present I don't know where it's from.

This heart necklace is one of those ones you get out of those machines, where you put the money in and turn the handle and it comes out in a little pod. Tom's Mum got it for me when we went to an aquarium in Scarborough. It's hard to see in this photo, but it's made of stone (as in quartz, etc). It goes with any outfit.

DOUBLE GLITTER!

I'm wearing my jelly sandals again, I don't know why I never wore them over the summer, but not that it's Autumn I've started wearing them every day. Must be because I'm a massive pain. I think they look good with black socks because it shows off the glitter more. I'm also wearing my glittery leggings, because I thought the outfit wasn't already enough like a year 6 disco. All I need now is some body glitter and hair mascara!

I wanted Tom to take a picture of my face. I tried to do a slight pout rather than smiling all the time but I couldn't stop laughing when I looked at him, and he kept laughing when he was trying to take the picture. I now have about 20 photos on my phone of me with my face screwed up, similar to this one. Great.

Fancy Dress: 'Anything but clothes'

Hi, on Monday it was my house warming party at uni. It was fancy dress and the theme was sci-fi or 'anything but clothes'. I'm not that into sci-fi and the ideas I did have were going to cost quite a lot, so I decided to go for the cheap but fun 'anything but clothes' option. 

If anyone watches Adventure Time you may notice that I took some inspiration from LSP.

This outfit was perf ad so so easy, here you go

YES! IT'S A PLASTIC BAG! 

Obvi I still wore clothes underneath because it would have been rather see through, and it was inevitable that it would get torn off at some point during the night. I belted it in to add that stylish edge ;)

Rest of the outfit:

Batman dress - Amazon

Satchel - Beyond retro

Vans - eBay

Who thinks I was looking fresh to death in my new dress and purse?

Sadly I didn't make it home in my bag dress, it was lost at some point during the night, perhaps it went something like this?...

Luckily the night ended perfectly with a chicken box and cuddles with Tom :)

Making Autumn cute

Today me and my boyfriend went to try those new chicken nugget burgers from burger king, they are sooo nice! They taste like so much more than chicken nuggets in a burger. Also burger king has lush crisps. I'm happy today as well, because when I went to my Mum's at the weekend I fetched my tartan coat. It's time to wear it now for Autumn!

Tartan coat - River Island 

I got this for my last birthday off my Mum. I love it so much! And it's reversible; the other side is also tartan but with cream as the main colour. I'm so pleased it's Autumn again and cold enough to wear it.You can't see because of my hair, but it has a cute rounded collar. The only problem I have with it is that it doesn't have a hood and my ears get cold really easily and then I get ear ache.

Rabbit jumper - Miss Selfridge

This jumper was also a present so I don't know the price, I got it 2 Christmases ago. The wool is quite loosely knitted and it's sooo cosy and soft to wear. It's long enough to wear over leggings as well, and I've had it out so many times just since the start of September.

Shoes - Juju jellies 

Socks - present

These are the jelly sandals without the heel, I've had them for about a year, and I love them so much. Jelly sandals were the best thing when you were a kid and they're so versatile. I love that they've come back into fashion. I think you can still wear them in Autumn, as long as you wear them with socks. I like having the see through ones because they can be worn with any colour, but they also have some glitter to make them interesting. My Gran got me these socks as a present, I chose to wear them with my sandals because they are bright and colourful and will show through. 

Diary necklace - Thrifted - £1.99

This cute silver necklace is the shape of a little book and says 'Diary' on the front. I got it at a British heart foundation shop. I put it onto a different chain though, because the one it came on was too short for me.

Spiral bobbles/bracelets - Toki Yoki (Japanese shop) - 50p each

These spiral things are brilliant, they look like old telephone cords, and you can wear them as either bracelets or hair bobbles. The two I have are tartan/checked patterned. So good for 50p! Toki Yoko is such a cute shop as well. I don't know how many places they have shops in, but the one I go to is in Newcastle. They have Totoro backpacks and I want one so much, think it's gonna have to go on my Christmas list.

These are just some random photos Tom took of me. Most of our relationship consists of making weird faces at each other :')

Joan Smith

This weekend I came home to see my Mum because I was missing her. It's been so nice just hanging out, watching telly, and eating treats with her. Today's outfit is something comfy and warm. I've spent most of the day inside but we had to go out to Wilkinsons this morning.

Cardigan - Newcastle vintage fair

Grey John Smedley jumper - Hand me down

Shorts - Primark

Leggings - Primark

Necklace - eBay

Boots - Thrifted (shown later)

I got this cardigan last winter at a vintage fair. I love it so much, it has a name tag inside that says 'Joan Smith', so I had to get it! I think it was £10, possibly £15. It's brown and white dog tooth check with gold buttons. 

The grey jumper is a hand me down from my Dad, because he accidentally shrunk it in the wash. It's John Smedley, which are usually quite expensive so it's good to get one for free. Because it's not too thick it's great to wear as a long sleeved top rather than an actual jumper. It fits really well under bigger and more chunky jumpers/cardigans.

At the moment I am loving these cute Autumn booties. I got them at a charity shop a few years ago, I think they cost about £5. They're perfect for the colder weather that we're getting now, so cosy!

I accessorised with this cute rocking horse necklace from eBay. This only cost me 11p, seriously! And there was no p&p. It was one of those Chinese sellers where all the stuff starts at 1p. It's so sweet, and comes on a double suede cord, in light and dark brown.

Thanks for reading, hope everyone is enjoying Autumn :) x
