BACK, BACK, BACK!




Hello lovelies! I am back from my wonderful trip to london! As you all know (because I went on so much) I stayed at the Hilton with my boy and we spent the week visiting Notting Hill, rummaging through market stalls at Portobello market and enjoying some lovely meals out. 
Unfortunately I have not had internet up until now, the price for a days wifi at the hotel was extortionate! 


We also visited Ripely's believe it or not museum, i certainly didn't believe it but it seems Jack did!


These are some pictures I snapped before I rammed all these clothes in a suitcase! Do you find it easier to think of what you are going to wear/need if you lay it out? Certainly helps me! 


Check back for lots and lots more images from the week as well as out fit posts :)

LFW


The mad frenzy as street style photographers bombarded the next fashionista!





I WANT NEED these trousers!

 Amazing dip dye hair!





First peek of how I spent my day yesterday at London Fashion week! 

I met the adorable Katie from Lock stock + Style, it is amazing how easy it is to form a friendship having read a persons blog! 
We enjoyed mingling with the fashion crowd and soaking up the atmosphere, even though it was so cold our fingers turned to ice blocks!  We also got snapped ourselves so keep your eyes peeled for our pics somewhere on the internet! 
Starbucks and plasters where also in order, to warm our hands and nurse our battered feet! 

Stay tuned for my outfit photos! I am also staying in the Hilton the rest of the week with the boyfriend to explore london and do some much needed shopping! So I am sure there will be even more photos to bombard you with!

So these babies have unfortunately only been worn once and I am now going to have to find them a loving new owner. I really wanted to get the bigger size but they are now completely sold out, and being limited I am guessing they will not get any more!

DIY studded leather jacket









So since I have been coveting studs the last week I thought I would actually get down to business and start studding my sleeveless jacket! I am planing on adding way more studs than this I have been waiting on the post for a delivery of 500 smaller studs! Just think how much damage i could do with 500! 

You will need:
- Studs (Got mine from studsandspikes.com)
- A jacket that you want studded
- some pliers or other manly tool to bend the back of the studs
-scissors to punch a whole for the studs
- Some thing to read is you get bored! I opted for Elle. 

I could tell you how to do it step by step but its pretty simple and straight forward so I will save boring you, one tip I would give is to maybe measure how much space you want between the studs to make sure it is even and in line. You also want to make sure that you bend the back of the studs right in so that they do not scratch you when you put it on! It only took me about 10 minutes to do. It has taken a pretty ordinary Primark gillet and turned it into something with a bit more attitude!

I MEAN STUDS...







I am seriously lusting after anything studded at the moment! So I couldn't resist showing you some of my favourite images featuring studs! I couldn't believe it when I found the first image of the studded Hermes bag as I had had the idea of studding a bag like that for ages! I also think that the pocket revealing the studs is so hot! The taxidermy studded is another idea that had been buzzing around in my head, and the last two images are photographs of the studded horse that used to be in topshop! Snapped these before running to Uni last week! 

I Hope you have all had a lovely weekend! I promise tons of posts next week! Also what do you guys think of the new layout? I have been messing around with it again!

New goodies!






I am sorry about the awful quality of these photos, Jack decided to take them very late saturday night literally as I walked in the door he was there snapping away! But this has been the best outfit I have worn in a while, don't you just love that feeling when everything you are wearing is new, well nearly in this case, I have had the shoes for a while! I have only just realised that I am a walking advert for Topshop! I love the feel of this really floaty balloon sleeve top, especially worn with leather! Oh and I could not help but show you my favourite bag, that little skull follows me everywhere!!
