Shoe Porn

All ASOS

I am really into this pointed or minimalistic shoe trend at the moment. All the heels I own have a massive platform and a chunky heel which looks a bit heavy with certain outfits. My only problem with these kind of shoes are that the heel is so thin and because there is no platform I’m worried i’ll wobble or snap it. I already walk like I’ve shat myself in stable heels. They’re also SO painful.

In other news I haven’t started university properly yet so I’m taking this free time to look for internships. I’m having trouble actually finding one in the area I want to go into. It’s also so hard to find a company who will even email back. I wouldn’t even mind if the email said “fuck off you’re really shit” at least that it’s some acknowledgement. Oh well.

Post Christmas Update

It feels as if I haven’t written a post in absolutely ages, I actually couldn’t remember what button to press to make a post...

I’m so glad Christmas is over. Now everything can go back to normal and everything won’t be all festive related. Eating more than usual has been fun but I fear I soon will not fit into most of my clothing. Only NYE to tackle now and then after that I’ll never have to see another sequined dress for another year - praise the Lord. (why does everyone like them so much at this time of year?!) And I can get back to the gym because believe it or not I do actually go...

In other news by tonight all of my uni work will be done and I will be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I can’t wait to be stress free until I get my results and another round of coursework come January. 

Hitting the sales tomorrow hopefully I’ll find something nice but to be honest I’m doubtful if online is anything to go by. It’s obvious they’ve just collected all the shit that hasn’t sold this summer and dumped it in the winter sale. Terrible people.

So you don't get bored here are some photographs from my recent photo shoot. I'm so proud of myself because I hate taking pictures and they turned out so well.

Sweatshirts Minus The Sweat

I have only just realised I’ve only done one outfit post this month! That is appalling, I apologize. I have new clothes and not as much work so I will hopefully churn more of these out :)

Jumper; eBay/DIY | Shorts; Levis via Charity Shop | Belt; Primark | Necklace; Gift | Bag; Vintage | Camo Jacket; eBay | Snood; ASOS

P.S look what I found whilst cleaning out my drawers. Nineties classic. 

NYC

I’m back from New York now and I can say it was possibly the best place I have been to in the world so far! I loved it and I could definitely see myself living there in the future. 

There’s not much more I can say to sell NY to you so here are the pictures.

Rockerfella Tree. (I think that’s how you spell it) 

Basically it’s just a massive Christmas tree. And that’s it. 

Time Square

Broadway Comedy Club

First comedy club experience and most of the acts did so well. 

Shirt; eBay | Shorts; Levis via Charity Shop | Hat; H&M | Jacket; ASOS

Grand Central Station. 

Just a big station. Round the corner there was an Irish Bar that did the cheapest drinks, you need to go there. 

Jumper; Judy’s Vintage Fair | Skirt; Topshop | Boots; ASOS |

DASH 

The Kardashian’s shop which was so nice. I have stood where a Kardashian has stood. It makes me so emotional. Saying that the clothes in there were not that great and very expensive. 

Easy Jeans; American Apparel | Disco Pants; American Apparel | Skirt; Forever 21 | Jumper; American Apparel Jewellery; Diament Jewellery 

Everything I bought (minus a necklace and a pair of sunglasses)

I have to say I was expecting the clothing to be much cheaper than they were but the American Apparel outlet was amazing everything in there was so reasonably priced for American Apparel. Even the normal one was cheaper than the extortionate prices we pay in Britain. 

Black 'n' Rose

Top; ASOS | Discopants; American Apparel via eBay | Necklace; ASOS | Bracelet; Forever 21 (...but stolen from a friend.) 

Just a quick post (I was so tempted to call this post 'All Black Everything' but was told it was cringey) as I am in the midst of writing an essay. The pressure of getting all my tasks done for Wednesday is on my head.

All Things Disco

This is exactly how I’ll look in my disco shorts...

This time in two weeks I will be on the plane to New York having a panic attack. The thought of a 7 hour plane journey is making me really anxious but it will all be worth it when I get to go to the american apparel outlet!!! I rarely get excited about anything but I am for this and the first thing I’m going to buy is anything disco related.

As you probably know I have a pair of black disco pants (from eBay) and they are my second skin. Now I wear them and wash them so much the thread is starting to come loose and I think it’s time to get a few more pairs but at ￡74 a pair in the UK it is unlikely that I would be able to scrape together enough cash to even afford the button on them. But an outlet in Soho, NYC sells them for just $40?!?! I wept. It also means I can get the disco shorts (this could be a huge mistake) and disco skirt (not sure if I like it yet but it has disco in front of it so I will buy it.)

I’ll be sure to update you all on what I’ve bought!
