I'm back after a crazy busy weekend! 

Yesterday, I went to London Fashion Weekend, which is the part of LFW that is open to the public. It was my first time going and I had an awesome day! I'll create a post about the day and the catwalks later this week after I've recovered!.

Hair was done by the lovelies at The Braid Bar! This was my third visit there since this time last year and they created this gorgeous fish tail braid in just under 15 mins! Perfect as I was dashing about with little time to spare and it was a great idea as it also kept my hair tamed for the day as it was pretty windy :)

For my outfit I decided to go for the iron on patches look which is a massive trend right now! I am so pleased that patches have made a huge comeback. I used to spend alot of time in my teens customising clothes and would spend my monies buying patches from a local shop called Gecko. I think its great to see this trend as it encourages you to create your own stuff which is one of a kind, and its super easy to do!  :)

Want to get in on the trend and feelin lazy? no worries! loads of shops on the high street & online are now selling loads of awesome garms with patches on them - take a look at some of my top picks below!

The UNIF Frost Dupe..

Nothing beats a good dupe or candy coloured houses! Would love to live in a little colourful house like this! :)

Here I have found a copy of the blogger fave the Frost sweater and made a DIY version of the Lazy Oaf x Ragged Priest Total Mess Jeans!

Pastel Stripe Knit // SheIn

White "I can always be myself around you" Print Flatforms // Choies

Blue Jeggings (customised) // Primark

Lilac Heart Choker // eBay 

Lilac Satchel // River Island 

Pink Fluffy Keyring // Molly Trubody

The UNIF Frost sweater has been the blogger sweater this season, however, due to that it was constantly sold out and that it was pretty pricey I didn't get it. I went on a scout to find a dupe and found this pretty amazing dupe for just £15! 

Sites such as SheIn & Choies have pretty good dupes of alot of brands and, (so long as you don't need the item quickly as they come from China), is a great way to get hold of fashionable lookalike garms for a fraction of the cost! Although I was sceptical at first, and as ever, you have gotta be careful when shopping online, I definitely recommend these two sites and everything I have bought has been really good quality and as described :) 

I am totally obsessed with these Choies trainers too, they are incredibly comfortable and so eye catching. I tried to customise them with some pink fluff but they didn't exactly work as planed so am gonna try spray painting the fluff next until I find some actual pink fluffy fabric! :) 

I also had a DIY moment with these Primark Jeans - Ragged Priest collaborated with Lazy Oaf not to long ago and made some amazing jeans with some pretty simple to copy marker pen writing on the knees, however at the price of £65 I thought I could easily copy this and make my own version for just £10 here. DIY writing with a fabric marker pen and made my own knee rips, easy peasy! 

Have you got any good dupes websites that you can recommend or have any DIY ideas for any clothes you have seen lately? let me know! :)
