Geek Chic

1 comments
I wish wearing Non perscription spectacles was more socially acceptable and you weren't instantly branded a 'hipster' when you wear them *sigh*
These neon beauts were another, in my opinion, fantastic buy from the  'Hiper Asia' market :) 
For only €3.50 i feel instantly geek chic and i must say slightly cleverer (yes that age old stereotype that if you wear glasses you must be the new einstein!) 
Of course these beat the boring black fancy dress ones you get hands down. For starters they do have glass lenses in them AND they are neon pink! You cannot get better than that!


Don't i look fabulous...


Don't judge.

I just can't get enough

2 comments
A new dawn, a new day and a whole load of new things for me to buy :) Today i was woken up from my deep slumber to be told that we were going to yet another market, of course no complaints on my part but my dream had just got exciting! 
Driving 20min down the road to a lil place called Totana, where the chicken is good and the clothes are cheap!

I have to say though it was not as good as the market i went to the other day and to quote Miranda Priestly while i was walking around: 'I've seen all this before.' 
I did however manage to stumble upon two wonderful bargains. One was at, what i can only describe a second hand jumble stall, everything thrown on top of one another, most of it dated and resembling something my gran would wear, but not in the 'oooo this is so vintage kinda way!'. 
But again, right at the bottom of the pile, where everything decent seems to be i've come to find, was this sweet little Tee with... well i don't really know how to describe the pattern, but its bright and colourful and i think could easily pass for Topshop AND it was €2! Bargain!
I've been wanting some more baggyish T-shirts that i can just roll the sleeves up ( cos thats what the kids do now a days) and have a casual day. I love it! 


When it comes to handbags, i have to say, im not particularly great at choosing them. So many different types, sizes, colours i generally get all in a fluster, chuck it back and decide not to have one. Its the one accessory i just can't hack. Although saying this i am currently on the hunt for three different types of bag, a rucksack, a shoulder bag and a saddle bag. Well today guys i managed to cross one off my list and it wasn't particularly hard! 
€5, Mustard in colour, so will go with most things in my wardrobe, light to handle and did i mention €5!


It also went surprisingly well with the outfit i had chosen to wear today which was also a bonus. 


Well lemme know what ya think, there will be many more bargain posts to come don't you worry!

Peace

Cuffs, Chains and Dangly Bits

2 comments
Chains dangling off various parts of the body are proving to be extremely popular this season (yes of course i've jumped on the band wagon), but what are people thinking of Topshop's latest craze: The spike chain nose cuff?
I have to say its one thing having chains and dangly bits hanging from your ears, i mean its what ears are there for, but having 5 spikes draped across your face...im not too sure. I have an idea that it would feel like you permanently had a hair across your face and you'd just keep wiping it away! 
Although saying this i know in a few weeks i will prove to be a massive hypocrite because im so curious im likely to end up buying one! 
Here it does look delicate and pretty i have to say!
What do you guys think on the whole situation? If any of you own one please post a pic :) 



Next i move onto the Cuff to lobe chain :) This delicate little beaut is from Newlook at a wonderful £4! Ear cuffs have become a must have fashion accessory in the last few months with trend setters like Topshop and Misselfridge sporting many styles and designs. I have to say i was a wee bit behind on this craze as i have a cartilage piercing in both ears and thought i'd look weird(er than usual). But as usual i caved when i saw this gem! I think it was the cross stud that sold it. Crosses have become one of the must have patterns of the season and accessories are catching on to it! 
This actually came as a pair and looks bangin' wearing both or just one! 



Something i feel that hasn't caught on as well as the cuff is the 'behind the ear cuff'. I brought this months ago, saw it on eBay and fell in love! Its a great accessory, really delicate and looks beautiful, although some friends were like WTF! But what do they know! 
There is however one massive design flaw to the 'behind the ear cuff'...On the most part the cuffs are all the same size on any style you have, one size fits all. Except one size doesn't fit all if, like me, you have fairly small ears. You'll find the bottom part of the cuff, that is supposed to be tucked away behind the ear, will be on show thus not giving the mysterious desired affect. It also slips off the back of my ear so i have to make-shift fasten it to my front lobe hole with a stud. I'd recommend if you are going to get one of these that you go to a shop and try it on and not buy it off eBay like me!
However much i have just complained about it though I LOVE IT! Just wish i was normal and had bigger ear!

And to complete the outfit... EARRINGS.

3 comments
If any of you read my very first post you will have noticed I have a wide variety of accessories to complete the look on any outfit!
As you know (if you're a regular reader...if not then why not?!?) I do love my body chains, however I also have a passion for earrings! With eight holes in my ears I have to fill them with something exciting!
This summer it's all about danglies!

For the punk rocker in you I have these awesome spike hoops from Topshop. Studs and spikes have been very popular this year with celebs like Rihanna and Lady GaGa sporting them regularly. (naturally I've started studding EVERYTHING).


These next ones are big and beautiful but not gonna lie you can here me coming from a mile off with the jangle they make! They are perfect for a night out as they go with anything and everything. (and you can't here the jangle over the music!)


Accessorize are renowned for having exquisite taste in earrings (well accessories are what they special in) I got these gems for my twentieth birthday (of course I picked them out).
Again they go with anything but are perfect if your going for that Navajo look!


You know those earrings you have that you just through on because they are simple, easy and go with anything? Well these are those...need I say more?


Primark! Yes primark is where I grabbed these bargains at a pound! Great if you want to make a plain outfit look more exciting! Block colours go particularly well as it makes them stand out more! My favourites!


These are my beach earrings. Bang on trend for this summer, again another Primark bargain. They are beautiful, elegant and go with anything, especially a bikini :)


Boho chick? You want these! Stretching all the way down to your collar bone, they dangle beautifully and are a subtle enhancer to a casual outfit. Also look bangin' if you have long hair as they just tie in with your lovely locks! Also nice to wear one at a time, a big trend that hit last summer that I still do on the odd occasion :)

When they said loungerie on the outside...

6 comments
Sooooo getting ready to go out the other night was a hard choice, I have a whole wardrobe full of clothes yet sod all to wear! So I turned to the 'wear once in a while pile' and this is what I came up with!
As you'll see by most of my outfits I like showing a bit of midriff, tbh it's so I can show off my tattoo!

The LBS is a lil fav of mine, goes with anything and not blowing my horn but makes my ass look gooood :p
But what do you think of the crop top?
I'll let you in on a secret...it's a sports bra! Don't worry I wasn't going out nips on show! It does genuinely look like a tight crop top!
Paired with one of my fav accessories the body chain (makes anything plain look awesome!) I strutted out into town full of confidence, mostly due to the vodka but the outfit did help!
OH the TIGHTS nearly forgotten to mention them! These beauty's add a lovely bit of colour to an otherwise dull outfit, and stockingesque tights are very much in the season!

Peace out x

The Audrey Hepburn

3 comments
After a week of rain and a hard day of doing nothing, it's six o'clock and I look out my window to see bright sunshine! Was tempted to head to the beach but I thought no, instead I'm going to wack on some accessories, do a new hair do and take pictures of myself looking ready for summer (I'm so cool it hurts sometimes aha)
I've gone for the Audrey Hepburn look (which my mate kindly pointed out) big Sunnies, scarf in the hair, scruffy bun, all bang on trend for this summer!

Braides, plaits and knots are also well in this season! I just can't seem to do the perfect plait so I went for the standard quiff :)

Hope it stays sunny!

Body Chains and Leathers... Not as kinky as it sounds!

0 comments
For any of you Topshop fans, you will know that they are often the first to come out with a new kind of must have accessory, and this season's just happens to be the body chain! Make any plain top look that little bit more special with an intricate piece of jewellery hanging across it!

This beaut I'm wearing here is from MissSelfridge. It's a full body chain that attaches at the neck and again around the waist! Now I got this at a bargain for £1! Well worth it! There are so many designs for all styles so seriously get one! Bang on trend for this season!!

The sun has got its hat on... And I have my SUNNIES!

0 comments
Looked out my bedroom window today to be greeted by glorious sunshine rather than the miserable rain fall that has been so consistent recently.
So naturally I reached across my desk,rolled a fag and grabbed my Sunnies!
Was a hard pick out of my many pairs but came to a good decision me thinks!

GET YOUR SUNNIES OUT!

Accessorize!

Every girl needs an extensive jewellery box to help pull together that perfect outfit! These are just a few of my beauty's.
Big dangly earrings, feathers and spikes are all bang on trend this season,whether it be for that beach chic, boho babe or punk rocker look no outfit is complete unless you've got something exciting hanging off your ear lobes!

If like me you're finding it hard to keep your favs from entwining in each other, quick tip: hang a piece or string across your wall and hook them on! TIDY!
