Ayshire-Cow

ASOS jacket, TOPSHOP jeans, ZARA sweater, TOPSHOP boots, COS bag

I know i'm wearing a fur jacket in the middle of May but I don't care. We've had a slight weather dip over the past week so I thought it was an acceptable form of outerwear. I saw the jacket in the Asos sale last week and couldn't resist - it reminded me of a cow I saw at the North Somerset Show a couple of weeks ago and thought it looked quite spring-like. The little hood is an added bonus too!

The Ball Outfit

ACNE dress (via my-wardrobe), ZARA heels

This is the outfit I wore to my Sixth Form Ball on Saturday evening held at a hotel in Bristol. I bought the dress a few months ago and have been desperate to wear it - I didn't want to go for an extravagant dress as I felt that buying a slightly pricier classic dress that I can keep for ever is much more justifiable. I couldn't decide between black or metallic-silver accessories but went with the black last minute because it felt much more together. I have a Leaver's Dinner at the end of June at my school so i'll probably wear the silver then! 

As some of you may not know, I am currently in Upper Sixth at Sixth Form/School and I only have another month or so left of being a 'school-child'. I have been at my school for seven years and although i've loved it, I cannot wait to move on and venture into the next stage of my life. Spending three years at University will probably fly by and before I know it i'll be applying for internships and jobs. I'm so excited for the future and feel more than ready to finish school, although i'm sure i'll miss the security of it when I do leave. I have three hugely important exams in June so I feel that blogging will have to sit quietly on the sideline for a few months while I buckle down and work for the grades that will essentially secure my place at University. When summer is over i'll be back with much more focus and drive considering i'm studying fashion. Besides, i'm more than certain that my blog is going to be bursting with ideas and projects come September/October but for now all focus will be on three subjects: History, Psychology and Art.

Eighty-Six

TOPSHOP top, VINTAGE skirt (eBay), WHISTLES clutch, ZARA shoes, RAY-BAN sunglasses

Please excuse my orange-ness in these pictures, it's my Sixth Form Ball tonight and I had a spray-tan yesterday. I love this top and couldn't wait to pair it with a vintage leather mini and heeled sandals = the perfect combination.

All White Everything


All white is still going strong in my mind. As much as I do love a bit of monochrome, I just love how fresh and minimal white can look all together. I need to stop myself from shopping as i've gone a bit mad recently, so unfortunately I will have to retain from purchasing any of the above pieces. However if anyone manages to see a cheaper version of the Reiss coat, please do let me know!
