daisy days

This is a good time to be writing a post, just defeated the boy on mario kart! now got some Reese's peanut butter cups for blogging inspiration ...

This outfit is a new little put together, I know it's not completely fancy or anything spectacularly wild, but it worked! Unfortunately the trousers are a little big for me as they are a size 12, (debating whether to get them taken in or not) but i loved the print, reminded me slightly of rupert bear trousers (except a different colour of course). In a way it's quite handy them being a little big as I can wear them high waisted with a skinny black belt. As you may have guessed these are yet another charity shop purchase at an amazing £1!Ii also added just a small white crop top to the outfit for a bit of simplicity and also a mint green cardigan later as it was quite a windy day! The white crop top was purchased from Topshop at a very reasonable £6 and I think it's quite easy to wear. Although I'm not usually one that likes to show any flesh around the middle (despite having tattoos on my ribs) I thought I'd break this thought .. My bog standard basic black wedges finished off this outfit that I got from H&M in Norwich along with the mint green cardigan. I know that everyone has been buying the Topshop coloured socks with the frill trim but I personally love them and everyone who I've seen wearing them has made them look so good!

Going along to the Vintage Market at Snape Maltings on Sunday with the boy and maybe some family, I'm sure I'll pick up a few gems that I'll share with you guys!

spinning into oblivion

everyone has been going mad these bank holidays, and why shouldn't they, it's the jubilee! we should all be proud to be british, ok we are known for our crappy weather BUT we ignore that and celebrate in the best way we possibly can!
this afternoon i'm going to my boyfriend's sister's fiance's parent's house (what a mouthful) for a first meeting which should be nice! of course me and boyfriend are getting all dressed up for this, we're terrible we get dressed up for anything! i've just received a text from him saying he's got me a little something from Urban Vintage as a little surprise, excited to see what this will be, i'll show you guys later ;-)
so the picture below, the skirt i'm humming over, still unsure about it, if anyone has any outfit ideas for me then please do say! the top i absolutely love, it's on a loan from Kristy (so tempted to keep but of course i won't)!
i'm really annoyed today i've lost my bloomin' memory card so can't take any new pictures until i've found it which SUCKS! but nevermind!

counting down the days now until my dad's wedding, i'm so excited! me and my step sister have both got handmade bridesmaid dresses and fascinators (sneak preview of the fascinators below) of course i'll be doing a blog post on this, the whole day is going to consist of a hand fasting ceremony, afternoon tea, hog roast live music and beer!!
