my days end best when this sunset gets itself.

jacket : ebay

jumper : asos

skirt : urban outfitters

boots : cloggs.com

bag : cambridge satchel company

s'cuse the suitcases under my eyes, i have a new street light right outside my bedroom which is about twenty times brighter than the one before (that kept me awake anyway) mixed with very loud road drilling at eight twenty this morning makes me sleepy one!

i realised the other day i only own two short skirts, two! so this little french horn/foxy number made its way swiftly into my wardrobe after spying it in the UO sale.

it also got to the time where it was kind essential to own a flat pair of brown chelsea boots, flat because one; i walk everywhere and I'm not lady like to wear heels everyday and two brown goes with everything...plus...i do like a chelsea boot

we managed to survive the storm unscathed, our roof tiles rattled a little, but nothing dramatic.

hope everyone stayed safe!

just hold on we're going home.

jacket and loafers: ebay

dress : new look

i wasn't so sure of this dress when i got it, but now i loves it.

i wore it out the other night and i though i would crack it out to brighten up a foggy wednesday.

its fair to say we're well into the autumnal season now and dare i say it i'm getting excited for christmas (only because we were talking about it at the weekend...) 

i love getting cosy in my room with candles and a cuppa (cool kid i know) or walking on foggy mornings tucked up in a big coat!

plus autumn means jumpers, we all know my bad habit for jumpers...

love livvy

this babe took the pictures today because she is a lovely chum

stay this way.

cardigan | primark | twelve pounds

jumper | primark | eight pounds   hat | H&M | seven ninety nine

heels | matalan | fifteen pounds*   mascara | nine pounds   nail varnish | three ninety nine

primer | five pounds fifty   lashes | five pounds fifty   foundation | six pounds ninety nine 

shift dress | new look | seventeen pounds   skater dress | primark | eight pounds

converse | forty pounds

with getting paid and my student loan i got a bit carried away...the converse were an investment as i have worn them everyday since i got them (which is why they look a bit scuffed)

had a matalan voucher to spend as  they were lovely and included a twenty pound voucher in our goody bags from the event!

to be fair i can't walk very well in the heels but they look puuurrddyyy, i wore them with the printed shift dress the other night and it was a very enjoyable combination.

jay came down for the weekend and we ate allot...a turtle bay (and a few too many cocktails) TWO tootis (which is a gelato bar) i take no responsibility for this..

and i made a pie aannddd it was a success! it even had pie written on it in the left over pastry!

you got me so wild.

jacket and boots : ebay

dress and bag : primark

rings : topshop

bloggers stupid pose : a norm 

say hello to my new favourite dress! i wore this for the first time the other day and i got so many compliments on it, everyone was shocked that it was from primark!

it is a bit tricky to get in and out of and a tad tight on the should/boob area (my housemates now like to make fat shoulder jokes)

however it makes up for this by being nice to twirl in, everyone got a show of this!

not sure why my hair looks so blonde all over in these photos, i can guarantee its not, however it is a fluffy as it looks..

my bag is a right gem, i can pretty much fit a small child in there (i think, i haven't actually tried) so far i have fitted; my mac, camera, all chargers, a pair of boots, hair dryer, make up bag, purse, umbrella, phone and keys WITH ROOM. i have designated it to be my library books bag. 

its got SO cold in hampton of the south, the wind here is vicious, this means if i make any effort with my hair it is wasted as soon as it leave the house, i pretend i look like like a l'orel advert but really i look like i have an impressively hairy face...good look i know!

always keep your heart locked tight, don't let your mind retire.

jacket : ebay

dress and boots : new look

neckalce : primark

bag : nica via bagable*

forever keeping it classy in the ally behind my house, i kept trying to stand infront of the fallen over wheelie bin..

bagable kindly sent me this lovely nica bag, you can fit a TON of stuff in it plus the lining is so so pretty!

not much to report on apart from i'm busy researching my diss subject, so my arms have been getting a work out carrying all the chunky photography books home, but its so nice to actually be looking and writing about photographs/photography and getting excited about shooting again, it feels like so long.

love livvy

p.s. a haul post may or may not be appearing soon...

been around the world, don't speak the language.

 last week i received an invite to an event that i was like 'errmaaagaaad yes please!'

i was invited by matalan to a private screening of woody allens film 'midnight in paris' at the bvlgari hotel in knightsbridge (accidentally gave myself a small tour of knightsbridge due to my appalling sense of direction even with google maps, it was a one minute walk..the shame..)

 the food. oh the food, it was deeevviinneeee, i am easily swayed by mini burgers and macaroons, add in those chocolate things on the spoon and i was in heaven, and a cheeky glass of fizz (or two...or three..) 

i had a lovely chat with cailin, becca, sophie and laura before the screening, and i chatted to rhea on the train home!

as well as chatting we looked at some of matalan's new products, i am very tempted by a fluffy jumper it was so so soft! 

thinking about it, i don't think i've ever been in a five star hotel until this event, a woman walked me to the lift and pressed the button for me...anyway enough of that here is what i wore 

i did regret the jumper, i was one warm wendy all day my face did feel like it matched my jumper for most of the day...

jumper, necklace and bag : primark

jeans and rings : topshop

boots : new look
