OOTD: Guns 'n' Roses edition.

                                                             
OOTD: Guns 'n' Roses edition

So, here's my OOTD. Patterned leggings, red vest and a huge, baggy Guns 'n' Roses t-shirt. I love wearing this top with my patterned leggings, because with plain black ones it feels a little depressing. However, since I've lost some weight, the top doesn't look good without a vest on underneath to balance it out. All the items are ages old, but I'll list where they're from anyway:

Guns 'n' Roses top: H&M

Red vest (worn underneath): Topshop

Leggings: New Look.

All that's missing from this is an uber long necklace. I just couldn't find one to wear!

Enjoy, leave comments and whatnot :)

Skater dresses are my friends.

I've previously bought a couple of skater dress from Primark (one being the red, polka dot one in a previous post) and I love the shape of them. I also think that skater dresses can be very versatile. You can dress them up for nights out or formal events or you can use them for the most casual of occasions. I also believe that skater dresses suit most body shapes. I'd class myself as an hourglass and they fit perfectly on my waist and skim over the part of my stomach that I don't really like. To me, they are a must purchase for chubby girls!

Anyway, I bought two that were exactly the same from New Look: one in a forest green and the other in a rose pink. They both cost £11.99. However, I managed to get my student discount on the pink on and got it for just over £10. For how much I've worn the both of them, I feel like they were massive bargains.

I usually style them both with a skinny belt at the waist, black tights and, either, ballet pumps or converse/vans. They look good with a denim jacket or my blue jersey blazer. They're really light so are perfect for the summer. However, in the winter, I plan on wearing them with leggings and a cosy jumper to keep myself warm.

They are still available in New Look in assorted colours. I seriously suggest everyone should invest in at least one!

Enjoy, leave comments and such :)

Many apologies, not that anyone cares.

I realise I've not written a blog for a while, but I've been on holiday and then generally busy. That and I wasn't really in the mood for taking photos for OOTDs or writing. Which is strange, because I love writing. 

I'l start doing OOTDs again soon, but right now I'm not in a nice place with myself. I'm full of self-loathing right now. It's a mixture of extended period blues and the fact that I've put some weight on. It's making me burst into tears every time I look in the mirror. I don't know what's wrong. I mean I've never loved myself, but I thought I'd finally gotten to a stage where I didn't abhor everything I looked at. I've never felt fatter. Nothing I like seems to fit me and I just hate all my clothes. I just want to wear massively baggy tshirts to hide my body from the world. I can't be bothered with my hair and my make up half the time. That's when you know something is wrong, when I can't be bothered with my hair. Hence, I've not taken too many pictures of my new clothes, or just of myself, for the fleeting fashion aspect of this blog. 

To top it all off, John has gone to Malia and I don't have him here to hug me. Nor, does he know what I'm feeling like because I didn't want to tell him all this before he went on holiday.

I really need to motivate myself and get back on track with my weight loss, confidence-building and liking who I am. I was really happy when it was going well and since we got back from holiday (which I shall blog about at a later date) I've been miserable. I can't even get a job to distract myself!

I'm off to watch some more Sabrina, the Teenage Witch,

Not really an OOTD, but it was Fancy Dress.

My mates birthday was last week, so now we're all back together we went out for it in Preston.
It was fancy dress and instead of spending a load of money that can be saved for my holiday, I decided to use a red spotted dress that I already own and go as Minnie Mouse :)

Ok, so you can't see the whole outfit, but it's a red polka dot skater dress from Primark (old) but was £10.
The Minnie ears were from a fancy dress shop in Preston - £3.99
I bought some white gloves, but took them off straight away because they were a nightmare when trying to do anything! - £1 from the fancy dress shop.
I wore a chunky black belt that was from Peacocks, black tights and my white Converse (£40 - Schuh).

I had such a good night, dancing along to all the cheesy music in Reflex and then chilling to my indie tunes in Lava (even though we only stayed for half an hour).

We didn't even get a take away on the way home, so proud of us!

Stay fashionable people.

Friday the 13th - OOTD

OOTD - Friday April 13th 2012

So, yeah. This is what I wore on Friday night when I went out for one of my best friend's birthdays. I am in love with this playsuit; I would wear it everyday if I could. It's unbelievably comfortable and baggy, but still flattering. Oh, I dyed my hair pink too as you can see in the bottom picture. It's mostly faded now, but I think I'm going to redo it eventually.

Anyway... outfit details.

Playsuit  - George at Asda (yes, really!) £16.

Belt - Primark £2 

I wore  it with some tan wedges that I got from Next last year (or even the year before) and  this bag
Which is from Red Herring at Debenhams - £20.
I wasn't sure about the clash of patterns, but the bag is huge and meant I could carry around a pair of flat shoes for when my feet started killing me, along with an array of other things.

Hope you like :)
