What I wore today - Leopard print t-shirt

I hope you're having a good week - a beanie wasn't a great idea but my hair's weird soooo there we are. A bit of spicy colour in this oversized leopard print t-shirt today - i do like a splash of colour every now and again. We went to London on Friday, we had to get up at like 4am which was silly and i didn't know what to wear - so i wore my neon jumper, ripped skinnies, and cut out boots, oh and my wool fedora...bad decision, we got to London at about 9am and it was already sweltering, honestly it was so hot i had to go to Zara to buy a vest to change in to! It was a fun day and we did lots of touristy things like visiting Buckingham Palace, looking at London folk, walking round the Natural History Museum, and of course Oxford Street! I've been a fair few times before but it had been a while, so it was great to be back in the city :).
Do you like leopard print?

The Monday Piece - Araneus clothing cap

I hope you had a lovely weekeend! This week's Monday Piece is on Araneus Clothing and their awesome caps. As you know, i love a beanie hat, but now as it's warmer they're not always that practical, however snapbacks/caps/strapbacks are! Hooray! I think they're really easy to wear, and i'm a big fan of streetwear and urban clothing so i was excited to try one of these. This cap retails at £30, it's 100% corduroy crown and top visor , the logo on the front is 3D embroidered, the under-visor is also printed in a contrast green and black so there is a lot of detail and sits just right on my little old head (they are adjustable). Araneus is Latin for Spider, the name was chosen as they make clothes for people who weave their own path and destiny, and the spider is a symbol of creativity and independence! Such an awesome motto!
I've styled it with some jeans, strappy sandals, and a cheese vest from Choies - the love for slogan tees continues!
Do you think i suit a cap?

The Monday Piece - Paul's Boutique

This week's Monday Piece is on Paul's Boutique - this is a pretty famous brand that i'm sure most of you would have heard of, they offer an enormous range of handbags, hoodies, watches, amongst other things, and in recent months have undergone a huge transformation! I can remember lusting after the bright printed bags as a teen, it's crazy to think the brand have been around since 2002 but times have changed - on their website you can still find the awesome, unique pieces that i wanted when i was youger, but now the selection is more mature, more simple, more grown up...more amazing! The new range of satchels, and a luxury leather range too, has widened the audience of Paul's Boutique, there really is something for everyone.
This fabulous satchel is milky in colour, with electric blue strap and detailing, it comes with a cute but discreet bow charm that has the Paul's Boutique symbol on, it's all leather too so definitely has that luxurious feel to it, plus it's only £50 which i think is so reasonable for a leather bag. The size is just right, and perfect for slinging over my shoulder when i'm dashing out of the house every morning - don't even get me started on this slouchy leather bag, what a dream, it's got teeny tiny skulls on it too!
Anyway, you really will be spoiled for choice, i'm really impressed with the fresh new urban take on the brand, i hope you are too :)

What I wore today - Primark varsity mesh vest

I hope you're having a good week so far! My favourite kind of outfit today, lots of varsity themed things, the American dream continues! Can you believe this little mesh vest is from Primark? And at only £5 it's a guilt free treat, it looks so much more expensive too - very Topshopesque, i wore a plain vest underneath as i've not got the body for overly see through things, ha! I've been wearing these little hi tops for a few days now, they're really light and comfy and perfect for hip hopping around in, these are also an amazing price at £12.99 from my favourite eBay shop Fashionshoesdirect.
Ooh I completely forgot to mention that I went on Question Time last Thursday, they were in my home town Worcester so we managed to get tickets - it was all very exciting and we got to meet David Dimbleby and have a big debate on TV - I quite like politics and current affairs, it's good to be kept in the loop with how the country is being run so I enjoyed the evening very much. It was quite funny as we were sat right in front of the sound guys who were having some pretty dodgy conversations, very naughty!
Hope you like the outfit :)

What I wore today - Hedonia cropped jumper and Steve Madden Twynkle Sneakers

Finally getting round to showing you my Steve Madden Twynkle sneakers in an outfit post (they are now only £30 in the sale!), plus a little cropped sweater from Hedonia that I would have loved to have worn with a little skirt but i'm having a fat day and it's still too cold. Ha! Though i still like it over a long vest with some leggings, nice and casual for a Friday. You might be able to see that i've changed my hair slightly, i've gone darker - mainly due to my Mum and Sister telling me my hair looked green...which panicked me a fair bit...so I ended up doing it myself with a home hair kit. I think it looks ok anyway, despite being fluffy and frizzy in these pictures - it's not been styled at all so it's a right mess, must make more of an effort in future! It reminds me a little of the Friends episode where Monica goes to Barbados and has the monster hair...well maybe it's not that bad...is it?
Have a fab Friday :)
