Outfit Of The Day- Cosmo

Another outfit of the day gurl! I know I know these are pretty ratchet, but I dont have much inspo for outfits at the moment, I mean I only go to Barnardos :P This was a quick photo shoot (as if) before I left which I may start doing again.....
Anyway here we gooo!

 I love this t shirt! I got it from New Look in Liverpool ages ago in a buy 2 get 1 free deal, good times....
So I've gone for a kinda seapunk look today I feel with the colours and shiz, just have to dye my hair green.
Hat: eBay
T shirt: New Look
Jeans: Carboot
Wig: eBay
Shoes: New Look
Necklaces: Topman 

I've tried to stick to the simple colour scheme as per because I like samey samey things that match but not exactly. Matched the trousers to hints of purple in the top, although I'm just loving these jeans so that's the real reason I wore them ;)  
I didn't realize how my hat looked like it was falling off in this picture, I blame the wig, although it didn't look like that during the rest of the day, looked better and stayed on pretty well. i wore the wig because I fancied having blonde hair for the day, even though its cheap it fits well and looks great, well at least I think so. 
That's all for today, more soon

London Street Style!

Just some pictures of lovely London street style of fabulous people i found, some amazing style down there, some inspiring pieces.


This girl was just amazing! She was so kind and sweet and had amazing style to boot, I'm definitely a fan!


Love this combo!

eBay finds

/Hey again!
Kind of a haul, but with things off eBay that I buy weeks apart and arrive fairly close together, so kind of a haul...
I sold quite a few items on there so my Paypal was full of money groaning to be used, so i did!

 First off I bought another wig for me! Because I'm growing my hair out and it looks terrible so I thought I could buy a bunch of wigs and cover the awful follicles haha.
This is another cheap cosplay wig, around £6.00 including p&p, from china and took around 8 weeks to arrive, but I don't mind, looks nice on and that's all that matters.
Its really cheap though, not even a lacefront, just like one of those net costume shop wigs and had a horrible shine when it arrived, that ain't cute girl -_-    but after some styling and talcing it looks a lot better and not as cheap and shiny. 
Also its really short around the ears so can see a bit of my brown hair/side burn poking out, but that's OK I can just shave that bit ;D
Anywoo looks nice on and i love the colour so that's all that matters really. 
I then bought this cute little hat for around a fiver (link below)
I saw this when I was in London on a little stall for £18 in different colours, but it was a tight fit on my huuge head, so I didn't get it, also it was £18...
But I looked on eBay for a while, finding similar prices, which I didn't want to pay for a little hat, however one day a new one was uploaded, only for a fiver this time! More in my price range, so I snapped it up, considering the camel colour too, but we'll see. 
It fits my really well, whereas usually hats are rather tight on me, but this one was a nice fit, so i love it even more. I got black even thought I don't wear it much because it goes with everything really and looks more like the normal classic bowler hats so looks better in my opinion.
The only problem is that the seller scrunched it into a little ball to send and it completely lost it's shape, but I can try mold it and shape it...maybe.
Bought another hat with cat ears on, also in black, but I had no choice in this one. Looks good in black though, reminds me of my two kitties ^^
This one was for £1.90, which is a steal considering all beanies from shops like Topshop and River Island are around £20 each so I'm chuffed with my little find, as I adore hats with animal ears on, got a small collection of trapper hats and spirit hoods with ears.
Fits really well and as I'm always wearing a beanie can go with most of my clothes, even thought the way I wear my beanies makes the ears stick out at the back of my head in a funny angle, so will have to wear this one slightly differently, which is fine with me.
Bought mine from the top link but you can also get them in different colours from another shop!
Kitty Beanie Here! 
Also in colours
Look at dem ears ^^

I know I know, these trainers look pretty disgusting, but they were only £6.50, including p&p for a pair of Nike Air Max so I'm not complaining really, only need a good clean....when I get around to it.
They look dirtier in real life than they did in the picture on eBay which annoyed me a bit if I'm honest, but they did say they were worn so I shouldn't moan. Their in good condition actually, just need a clean.
I thought I would buy into the whole trainer trend and be a slave to the 90's trend. Seen a few more pairs on there for 99p while I'm at it.....
I don't really know what these will go with though because their red and that's not a colour i wear much, but I can ignore that colour ;)


Well that's all for now, wont be spending much now because saving money for uni accommodation, but will be doing a few outfits of the day and stuff so wont be away.
Till next time.

Outfit Of The Day- Pink Panther.

Been a while since one of these...
I wore this to Barnardos today and got so many compliments on the colours that I thought I would post a picture of it. 

T shirt: Primark limited edition (apparently) 
Jean: Fat face (£1 from carboot)
Shoes: Converse (charity shop)
Denim shirt: Paul Smith (charity) 
Cap: H&M 
Necklace: Charity shop

A mixture of purples and blues today with a distinct animal feel to the look, mixing leopard prints. I love how the oink of the panther mouth matches well with the jeans, although cant tell in the picture.
Close up of the awesome t shirt! Even thought the picture wasn't cropped on the camera.....
You cant see but on the back of the t shirt is a purple leopard print, like in the middle of front print, covering the whole of the back, looks pretty awesome.
Anyway tried to keep colours simple with this look matching the shoes to the shirt and the cap perfectly, in my opinion at least, and the t shirt to the jeans, cute look gurl, cute look.
 Wow my arm looks hairy in this photo....
This is a close up of the bracelets I was wearing, including my watch from the London vintage market, which shows how late I took these photos..
The gold chain is from a car boot sale for 50p the skull bracelet is off eBay, arrived today.
The gold bracelet is one of my favourite, found it in charity shop and worn it almost everyday since, its real gold, hasn't worn off yet, so im assuming its gold, don't really care if its not but it would be nice to have 1 piece of jewelry that wont rub green onto me haha

I love this vintage bracelet, was one of my mums that she gave to me, its from Italy according to the silver mark on the back, its a bit battered and bent out of shape now but it still love its eagle-ness. The chunky gold chain is from a charity shop, along with the matching necklace, great find for 50p! Always on the lookout for second gold jewelry that's quirky or different. the other 3 bracelets are just some I dont ever take off for my own reasons.





Well there we go, first outfit of the day in a while, hope you enjoyed it, and I hope to do a few more, forgot how enjoyable this can be ^^

Azealia Banks

Can I just say how much I love this video and song! I love the whole creepy and dark feel to it, so unique and strange song, I adore the fashion in it as well.

Car boot Haul!


The second of my hauls, this time to a car boot sale, because charity shops aren't  skanky enough ;D
Not a very big haul this time though, so not very long post.

First off is these Fat Face jeans, which in all fairness are pretty immaculate  until i wore them the day after, now they look awful like the picture shows, but they were pristine when i got them but now their all creased...
But anyways these were only £1 which is a great deal! These are a lovely colour and go with so many items i have, hence why they stood out to me in the pile of clothes. They are a size 8 and skinny  and fit me perfectly, which i was surprised, often jeans fit me awkwardly but these were a beautiful fit, certainly deal of the day!
I've worn them with a pink/purple panther print t shirt and the combination worked well, may make it an outfit of the day.

On another table I found these awesome dungaree short, their like mid length, just below my knees, but i rolled them just above my knee because I prefer rolled up jeans. They were a little more expensive at £2 but considering their not worn i think it was worth it.

Their a medium I think and only fit with dungaree straps on, if I drop them they fall off, so a little baggy but will be nice for the summer, as are nice and breezy so will cool, too chilly now though. Their by Route 66 jeans (I think, labels unclear) who I haven't heard of but they seem to do nice things. 
I might style these in the 90's grunge tend that is so hot right now with a baggy printed t shirt and trainers, or even a jumper. 

This piece is actually a mans adidas jumper, which is a surprise for me haha.
It was £1 because it has a small stain on the front of it, on other side of logo, but hopefully it will come off in the wash, and if it doesn't, for the price it was I can cover it with a gold chain as I'm always wearing one. 
Its a large but its sleeves are quite short, but I can wear them rolled up to the elbows like i wear most jumpers, I think it has shrunk from being washed too many times and it's also quite faded so more than likely. But I like the colour of it now, rather than if it was the bright red it would have been when it was bought, I'm not a fan of bright red so this suits me better than the original colour. I'll be teaming it with my washed out jeans and brothel creepers for a cool 90's feel outfit.

Another pair of creased women's trousers, theses are a 12 though and are a bit baggy on my but will be great for summer as well when its too hot to wear warm skinny jeans. Cant really tell in the picture but they are a really nice shade of red, like a bright red/orange.
They are quite thin and flimsy, almost like chinos but with pleats in the waistband and tapered in the legs to be skinny chinos rather than normal straight leg ones, which i love about them , forget who they are by but labels don't always matter.
Dunno what these will go with in my wardrobe if I'm honest but hell for a pound ill make them go with something! Maybe something like a white t shirt or mix it up a little with something brighter like blue or green, but who knows I'll have to see.






So yeh thats my haul blog for the day, not many items but still nice and cheap haul, more money for next time and to save for uni haha

Chester Haul!!

 First of my hauls :D

I went to Chester with the family on last friday...I think and visited various different shops and charity shops looking to add to my ever expanding wardrobe haha

First item is this leopard (cheetah maybe?) print jumper i got from H&M for £7 in sale, bargain ;)
I love how soft and comfy this jumper is, and the print, goes without saying, is awesome! i love animal prints and mens clothes rarely do, hence why i drift over to womans, but this was a good find! perfect size, not too big, not too small and the muted tones of the print and colouring will go with so many thing! Like any colour jean i own really....

 I bought another jumper in spring time....
This one is from T K Maxx, who i usually dislike, because my mum had a £15 voucher and decided to give to me? So i bought this camo jumper for £16 (i paid extra pound) with her kind gesture ^^ its by Worn By, whoever they are....., but its pretty good quality, nice and soft and roomy and y'all know i love me some camo print.
The prints only on the front thought which i was surprised and slightly disappointed by if I'm honest, just thought it would be on both sides for some reason, but hey it was reduced from £70 so Im not complaining ;)
I plan to team this with some autumn tone jeans, like browns and oranges....thats all i got so far, i just like camo haha
 Charity shop find #1
I found this lovely shirt (ladies) from George in....a charity shop, i forget which one, but it has a cute dimmed floral print all over in a grey/purple colour, so it wasnt too bright and i your face which i liked. As you can see I have already rolled the sleeves, which is how i wear all my shirts, and its quite slim fitting, which i dont usually do, so will be a nice change for me.

 Another charity shop, this one was only a pound! Its from Nexts custom collection, so should be good quality, it still had card in collar so I'm going to assume its not been worn, and if it has not much.
Again its like a grey/purple print, only with leaves not flowers and smaller and all over, so not that similar really...Apart from rolled sleeves ;D
This one was from the men's section so doesnt ride up in my armpits like woman's shirts do which is a plus :3
This looks great with my purple jeans and my grey beanie, hipstering it up!



I found another No Fear t shirt! Again in a charity shop, getting a little collection of these guys, all from charity haha. This one has little marvel comic style cartoons of....something, im not sure what is happening in the scene really but theres a lot of the scenes so i dont think it matters really.
To be honest theres so many colours and styles in this t shirt alone i dont think it would matter what I pair it with really.
c


 I got these from the Primark sale section, in mens, their creepy little gangster vampire grillz, kinda cute

This is from the men's Primark sale section too, little creepy gazelle deer thing, look at his evil eyes, wanting to take your soul....

I got these cute little gold collar tips from Primark too, to wear with my shirts (obv) and add some needed glamour, but their thicker than i thought, like an inch thick, which is suprising, but hey their nice.
