It's Not Even My Birthday...

Thursday 3 January 2013

I'm running out of Laura Ashley wallpaper, fact. Today the weather wasn't too bad so these pictures were taken on my driveway before it started pouring down - I'm so urban.

 Jacket: Traffic People - Skirt: Motel - Hat: Superdry

Since it's officially my birthday in 2 days time, today I decided to play around with potential name day outfit choices. Before Christmas, Fuse ran a Pinterest competition where you could win your dream wishlist up to £250. I entered and by Pattz I won!! Amongst my wishlist was this gorgeous fitted panel jacket by Traffic People and this mermaid-tastic metallic sequin skirt by Motel. Needless to say, the Fuse team are my new best friends.

Golden Glitter Ring: Ji Ji Kiki - Stone Ring: Lovisa

This skirt is so comfortable it's crazy. I spotted a similar one on Little Magpie and then started lusting after one for myself. It has a lot of stretch in and is longer than most sequin minis on the high street which is perfect for me because I need to grow old gracefully.


The hat I'm rockin' is by the super fly Superdry. It's been firmly attached to my head this Winter (when I'm not wearing a bowler that is) and I have the matching scarf too! It's so oversized and comfy. I've always liked Superdry, they offer so much more than branded hoodies and now have a pretty cool beauty range! 

Finally, does my hair look a bit ombre'd to you? It's all natural but I suppose it's quite on trend ha!

  8. Oooh, I didn't realise that motel did that skirt in the iridescent green - I bought the Gabby dress but it just didn't suit me, I may have to buy this instead as the colour is just so gorgeous! x
