“They seek him here, they seek him there,
His clothes are loud, but never square...”

This post’s TUNE comes from The Kinks, a legendary band!  If you love The Beatles (and why wouldn’t you!!), then you will love these!  I love all the bands from this era, when I was younger and my dad used to tell me about them I wasn’t interested, but then one day I saw the light (not literally) and I realised just how good they really were!  You can listen to this song here.

So get yourself some Kinks in your life and visit the website here.

Anywho....



 Top: Tesco (old)
Trousers: Internacionale (£9.50, sale)
Shoes:Primark (old)
Coat: Topshop (old)
Scarf: H&M (old)
Satchel: Cambridge Satchel (Prezzie)
Watch: Urban Outfitters (old)

Sometimes I look so moody in these pictures, tut, I promise I'll try and look happier from now on...
Anywho...
 
Ooooh, I picked up these trousers in a sale in Internacionale when it was buy one get half price, as if a sale couldn't get any better!  So I picked up these along with 3 other skirts, all of which will make an appearance soon I'm sure!  Anywho, I'm really happy with them, it gets so boring wearing jeans or skirt, so it's nice to have a bit of a change.  I think they suit my old Tesco blouse, as they both have a bit of a vintage look, yey.

I have quite a few coats but recently it seems I've been living in my leather jacket so it's nice to stick something else on, and the scarf was just necessary, it's the old bones you see...


Just so you know, I don't suffer with back problems, I choose  to pose like this, yes, I know, very odd, very odd indeed, but I do quite like it... although I'm thinking if I do it enough will I end up with some kind of weird stoop, which eventually turns into a hump, oh my god, I'd have to start shutting myself away and only coming out at night time....   Woah, lets stop there, too much thinking...

Yo Yo Yo,

    1. Oh um, everyone always asks how my hair is shiny, I honestly don't know, it's a combination of hair dye, cheap shampoo (I don't see any difference between the tesco everyday shampoo and the expensive ones), oh and I use Moroccan Oil on it too (you can get the cheap version I use in Home Bargains)... sorry, it's not much help haha

  7. Oh, but the receipt is so easy and quick - you should definitely try it out! I'm sure it's going to be a success ;)
    Also, I love your hairstyle! (hope I won't sound to creepy) I also wanted to get a similar cut but only if I would have dyed my hair on very light colour.

    Have a lovely day,
