SNOW DAY 2K13

 

JEANS&TOP:DOROTHY PERKINS COAT:VINTAGE BOOTS:DR MARTENS

It has finally arrived.

My Icelandic friend Elín thinks it's hilarious "2cm of snow and England is in chaos." and my house mate Phil who works for a supermarket laughs about people panic buying: "They've taken all the vegetables, the only thing left is peppers."

But SRSLY U GUISE,  SNOW DAYYYY!

I love snow.

I've spent a good few winters now relying on the fur coat and docs combo. It is timeless and always a winner for warmth.Which is good. Because Worcester is blatantly entering a new ice age.The other amazing thing about DM's is the grip. Like Dude, I NEVER FALL OVER! Big Love for these boots.

P.S
On my last OOTD post I had a shitload of comments and page views and, just, everything really. And I wanted to say thanks :) AND KEEP IT UP! I freakin love you people!

All Work & No Play

Well, Christmas and New Year lulled me into a false sense of security RE work and uni and deadlines. And now here I am, fresh from a full days research in the library eating crisps and soup for tea and wrapping up in more layers than you can shake a stick at (I am poor and heating is expensive, creys).

I have two weeks off between semesters after this week and my plan consists of a lot of sleep, gaming as a way to stay in touch with the BFF in Exeter (also, I am an out and proud nerd). But most importantly, i plan on giving the ol' blog some new vizualzzz and chucking together a few posts.

Don't get too excited guys, no need for balloons or cake or anything.

Actually, cake would be nice.

Priorities

COAT:EVANS(OLD) LEGGINGS:PRIMARK BOOTS:DR MARTENS TOP:ASOS CURVE

Bringing this coat back from the depths of my wardrobe was either a great or terrible decision. It's really fucking old, it's broken and to be honest it might be about as fashionable as wearing a plastic bag as a hat.

Buuuuut, it is also warm, comfortable, surprisingly easy to wear with most outfits and comes with pockets full of teenage angst (well, Tesco receipts from when I was at college actually but that's basically the same thing).

I bought this top from ASOS what must be years ago now and I've nearly gotten rid of it so many times but something always makes me hold onto it. Not sure if it has appeared on here before or not but I honestly can say I still don't know how I feel about it.

Thoughts?

 Yay or Nay?

I've noted a real absence of comments on the last few posts, I mean page views are at an all time high (thanks BTW!) but there's no vocal response coming.

I love hearing from readers, no matter if you've just dropped in for one post or are a regular and if commenting here doesn't suit you please feel very welcome to tweet or Tumblr me instead.

I also am very welcoming to suggestions for BMB, is there something in particular you'd like to see?

SPEAK UP!

DRESS:DOROTHY PERKINS SHOES:FRED PERRY HOODY:PRIMARK BELT:TOPSHOP SUNGLASSES:TESCO TOP:ON LOAN

I felt very much like I was inspired by my 16 year old self this morning. I'm wearing my Dad's "cool skull earring" in one ear and a classic pearl stud in the other. I have silk flowers in my messy up do and I've thrown a cut up home tie dye top over a dress. Add to that the fact it's freezing and I thought a hoody was a sufficient coat. I've basically regressed. I look back on most of my style choices with absolute embarrassment, but sometimes I can do a bit a of a throwback and not throw up.
