Chatting about my fave online fashion campaign of the year and another fabulous charity shop find! 

Black Floral Strappy Back Tea Dress // Boohoo

Teal Coat // John Rocha (Charity Shop)

Grey Suede Boots // Primark 

Tiger Print Bag // Current Mood

Sorry for lack of posting again! My blogging has been truly terrible this year having missed all spring and pretty much half of my fave season, autumn.. Thankfully with my new time off scenario (more on that later) I had time to shoot a couple of outfits today.  Que lots of squeezing in wears of leather jackets, thigh boots with sheer tights and long sleeved T's till it really is too cold to wear them over the next few weeks!

The coat is my new fave, another Haywards Heath charity shop find. It looks totally unworn by its previous owner and cost just £7! :) Think it was a British Heart Foundation shop. 

I LOVE the colour, it really brightens up my darker outfits. I am now committed to wearing more black as I am now working in a salon this is the uniform colour I have to wear. So I'll be def separating my wardrobe in to fun weekendy things and my black gothicky salon attire! 

This cute little black Boohoo tea dress was actually bought with another occasion in mind which was our wedding anniversary earlier this month. I am obsessed with all things from Boohoo at the moment and particularly their #allgirls campaign which I think more brands need to start to do.

The campaign features girls of all shapes, sizes and colour which makes such a refreshing change of the usual models who are all exactly the same height, body type and more often then not have had some kind of surgery done here as well as a mountain of photo-shopping. Its not always a realistic to advertise clothes when using these models as it doesn't represent every girl out there. So here we have the #allgirls campaign which I'm loving. Its so nice to see realistic models! 

It would be great if the high street also followed suit and had different mannequin shapes and sizes as well as ones with disabilities too. Hopefully one day in the not too distant future this will happen!

Chasing the Sun

Not feelin ready to let Summer go just yet... 

Rainbow Maxi Prom Dress // Charity Shop 

Still not over the fact I got THIS DRESS from a charity shop earlier this week! After spotting it in the window of Help the Aged, Hayward's Heath, last Friday I was completely in love. 

Luckily it waited for me as I saw it was still there on my walk to work after the weekend and just went straight in and bought it without trying it on or anything, thankfully it fits perfectly and I loveeee it! 

I wore it out to the Eastbourne Steampunk Festival today (not really going with the theme, but hey ho)  There was a bloke with a crossbow and a lady with a frog on her head, pugs in top hats etc so I thought well why can't I then go along in my rainbow dress for today as everyone's super dressed up? So I did! :) 

I've been going to the festival the last couple of years, though last year it was abit of a let down (weather wise) whereas it was really nice out yesterday so you could stroll around the stalls, watch the bands and belly dancers in the sunny sun sun. If your about in the area I'd def recommend you go to check it out!

PS. Like the trippy fillterey look? Played with the brush filter on Glitche app to get this effect!

Happy Sunday guys!

Hope you've all has another good weekend, mine was abit random, slept most of yesterday and then headed over to my mums to pick up my Christmas Party dress eeepp! Can't believe its nearly the season of sparkle all ready!

To kickstart off the season I've combined some sparkle with one of this years biggest trends - patches! I spotted this amazing patch from SugarBones a long while ago and waited for it to come back in to stock and thankfully it did! Its so perfect for the back of a jacket as its huge and totally transforms this old moto jacket I picked up from a charity shop.

I completely fell in love with The Labyrinth this year after fellow blogger (& cosplay ghost buster!) Adam lent me his copy of the film on DVD, I had never seen it before then and watched it a few times before giving it back. Its one of those films I could watch till I know it off by heart so that's probably what I will end up doing, and buying more Labyrinth themed stuff lol!

I added some sparkle with help of Hobby Craft and my Swarovski crystals I got from the Alexander McQueen exhibition last year and its like a totally new jacket! :) Think I may also change the buttons but now sure quite what sort of buttons yet. Maybe star shaped ones to go with the Sailor Moon/Labyrinth Theme!

Check out SugarBones on her website! Her pins and patches are so unique, I'd love to have them all!

In My Field Of Paper Flowers

Pink Sheer Maxi Skirt - Primark

Cut-Out White Top - River Island (Charity Shop)

Chunky Black Studded Cut-Out Boots - Ebay

Rose Floral Hair Band - Primark

90's Black Choker - Ebay

Lips - Topshop Lips in Beguiled 

Nails - Nails Inc. London 3D Glitter in Conaught Square

Back with abit of a boho vibe, this pink sheer maxi skirt from Primark's latest drop is perfect for our current transeasonal weather.

I usually tend to match girly skirts with leather or something biker chick however I'm nowhere near ready to go delving in to my wintery wardrobe just yet opted for something more romantic boho instead. I did keep my studded boots on though to toughen up the look abit and not get my feet wet. One of my work pals did say I looked very princessesy though regardless of the chunky boots :) 

The top is something I've had for years, I bought it in a charity shop for a couple of quid and since then its been a staple piece in my wardrobe. Sometimes I've safety pinned patches on it, layered it on top of longer sleeved tops in the winter ..its really versatile! Sometimes I find the stuff I've found in charity shops are the best and most long-lasting of all my clothes. I definitely want to do a charity shop haul soon to see what treasures I can find. I haven't done any charity shop hunting in ages! 

Have you ever bought any clothes from a charity shop that's become favourite piece in your wardrobe?
