fix up, look sharp

[I was meant to schedule this but I'm a ditz so here, have it now!]

I am gifted with friends who, quite frankly, are nuts. So when I start having a few pictures taken for Le Blog (in my glamorous kitchen of all places) one of the aforementioned nutters decides to jump in on the action. Readers of Bust My Buttons, meet Elliot. Psychology Student, music enthusiast, my dear friend and if these pictures are anything to go by, future model.

I'd post where Elliot got his clothes from but I have no clue and lord knows I'm not calling to ask. I do know however, that he's only wearing those shoes because they were, and I quote "The only ones without a hole in the bottom". The No Hole rule probably applies to his jeans as well!
He'll probably kill me for saying that :)

Looking at these pictures made me decide I need a fringe trim, look at that mop!

NECKLACE:CRYSTALS BELT:GIFT

This is just a mini post with some details for an outfit I wore a couple weeks back. I love moonstone and this necklace is especially pretty, the photo doesn't do it justice.

I've been performing for one of my modules of late (hello second biggest part in the play!) on top of doing the farewell for xmas rounds so basically, it's been a bit manic. I'm at home in Exeter now, sans tripod and 99% of my clothes so as soon as I'm at Grandma's with more luggage and equipment I'm gonna post more often.

Apologies for the absence, if you even noticed it :)

To cover me for the next couple of days i'm going to schedule some random picture posts from nights out where I managed to capture an outfit, or most of one anyway!

Hope everyone is having a good run up to Christmas and if you've already celebrated some or all of your winter festivities then I hope they were brilliant too <3

sudden urge to blog

DRESS:H&M BELT:ASOS CURVE SHOES:NEW LOOK

DRESS:ASOS CURVE BELT:PRIMARK SHOES:NEW LOOK

So i'm sat watching Miami Vice (the TV show) and I get the sudden overwhelming urge to blog. So I scramble around my hard rive and find these beauties from a couple of recent nights out.

Where I basically wore the same outfit.

Oh well, if it aint broke, don't fix it!

The belt in the top picture and dress in the bottom are recent additions that I truly love and intend to get LOTS of use out of. What you cant see in this picture is that the ASOS dress has a lovely wrap style design to the front so is quite different from the H&M fit and flare number :)

Gotta love your boozed up friends and the fact that, even after a few too many lemonades, they can still take a decent outfit shot!

This post is all about these leggings.

I love them.

I physically have to stop myself from wearing them every day. I mean i'm a sucker for fashion but let's face it, comfort comes before anything really, at least on a day to day basis. And you don't get more comfy than leggings. I don't care if that makes me sound like a 1980's housewife!

I guess the pattern and colour is a really good way to make my outfit more interesting and they make me feel so 90's; i swear i had a pair like these as a kid. I told my friend Elliot they're my 90's Interpretive Dance Leggings, pretty accurate description if you ask me!

The lipstick i'm wearing is a wicked matte coral colour in the Kate Moss Rimmel collection, i can't really be bothered to grab it and write the details now but i'm gonna post on my new lippys this week so you'll find out soon enough :)

Today i am mostly listening to: The Skints

SCARF&BELT:GIFTS BROOCH:DIY

this is how i looked yesterday, thought i'd share with y'all because it's raining and i'm bored : )

OOTD: 'suup from seattle

i wanted so desperately to alliterate and this is all i had, are there any other greetings that begin with an s? i don't think so!


Anyway; moving on.
I'm holidaying alone so i don't feel hugely pressured to pull out my best garbs, however, i went to the aquarium today and i wanted to look nice for the sealife : )

TOP:DOROTHY PERKINS TIGHTS:TESCO SKIRT:H&M BELT:GIFTED CARDI:EVANS

Apologies for the bin that is in shot, i was too busy trying to find a good place to set up my gorillapod and camera that i didn't notice it.
This is pretty simple and i've worn it all before, but never in this country! I'm really glad i brought thie skirt with me, mostly because it's the only thing i have to wear with all the tops i brought (i'm on the hunt for good jeans, suggestions on where to find them are welcomed!) but also because it's very comfy and easy to wear with a whole shitload of things : D
The weather here right now is a bit all over the place so i'm grateful for me nice warm tights. It's sunny but cold now, it rained earlier, it hailed yesterday, the weather forecast never quite gets it right and if it wasn't for the coffee shops on every corner that i dive into then i'd freeze walking 5 blocks down the street.
(lol wut, i just said blocks!)

Just in case anyone wants to know,  the colour i have on my nails is Barry M 262 Bright Red (i loved how this was an example item for things that need to go in a clear zip lock bag at the heathrow security checks)
It's pretty sweet and goes nicely with the Barry M red lipstick.
