Made in the 80's...

 Hey loves! Hope you've all had a lovely weekend. I'm currently on the sofa wrapped up in blanket  watching old box sets of The Hills- aren't Sundays a wonderful thing?! 

Just a casual one today- a weird mix of my 2 year old Mom jeans which are now awkwardly too small, and a size 20 blazer that I bought in a charity shop. Like I said, weird. This T shirt is actually oversized and can be worn as a dress, but I seem to be going through a phase of tying my T Shirts up at the front. A bit Saved by the Bell...

Yet another post which really urges me to have a health kick... Sigh! I'll start tomorrow. Maybe.

A sunny day in East London...

Hey loves! I hope you're all having a good week and enjoying the sunshine! How much better does life feel (and music sound) when the sun has got his hat on?! 

Thought I'd share with you my outfit from Saturday, when I spent the most perfectly chilled day mooching around East London with Abbie. We started off at Hackney City Farm and then strolled up to Broadway market for a bite to eat and a Prosecco stop which was swiftly followed with another bottle of Prosecco on London Fields. It doesn't get much better than that does it?! 

I went with an all black (errythang) outfit in the form of my bargainous £7 H&M cropped trousers and a split side sleeveless top from New Look. My new uniform seem to be my River Island fringed jacket and of course, the Adidas Superstars. If you haven't bought these yet then 1) buy them, and 2) if you're a size 5 or smaller, get them from the Kids section. £15 cheaper and EXACTLY the same trainers. Crazy, eh?! 

Excuse the shameless tattoo shot at the end, I just love. it. so. much.

Two more days til the weekend guys, we can totally do this.

Wide leg trousers and Adidas

Hey loves, hope you've had a lovely weekend! Mine couldn't have been better, as I spent the whole weekend in London with my fellow fashion loving friend Abbie. We spent Friday night catching up over Venezuelan food and cocktails- I'm not even sure what I ate but I do know it was one of the nicest things I have EVER eaten!!

The whole weekend was lovely and chilled, so this outfit was ideal- the Adidas T Shirt makes another appearance paired with my new love- this pair of wide leg trousers from H&M. Dreamy, aren't they?! My lovely boyfriend also turned up at my door with a pair of Adidas Superstars that morning (I knowww, I'm late on the bandwagon with these) and I can already tell these are going to be worn every. single. day. 

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and aren't suffering the Sunday Blues on quite the same scale as me this evening. 

Love love

Kendall made me do it...

After months of what was quite honestly complete overkill, I gave in and bought that Calvin Klein set. And I kind of hate myself a little bit for it. £50 for that little material is actually ridiculous, and it's quite safe to say that my body isn't quite in the same state as all the girls gracing Tumblr in their little CK crop tops with their washboard abs, sigh. (In fact just after Will took these photos I had a complete body breakdown which resulted in me throwing away all the crisps in the house and taking the roast potatoes off the menu for dinner that evening!) 

I got these cropped wide leg trousers in the H&M sale for £7, they're super comfy and are pretty similar to a lot of the culottes that have started appearing in stores. Bargain! 

I hope you're all having a great week- I'm off to London this weekend to stay with one of my favourites, Abbie and I can't bloody wait- hopefully some exciting posts coming up next week!

My new obsession...

  These days the countdown to payday isn't filled with daydreams of Topshop and Zara, but instead of the bright aisles of Ikea and Home Sense. My name is Amy and I'm a homeware addict.

Nike Air Max

I hope you're all well and truly back in the swing of work- that Easter break feels like a lifetime away now don't you think?! 

Thought I'd share my outfit from Bank Holiday Monday- as the sun FINALLY decided to show it's face and I took the opportunity to get a dress on! 

I'd been waiting for an opportunity to pair a black midi dress with my Nikes and this tassled jacket since I dreamed the outfit up while scrolling Pinterest (am I the only one that does that!?)

This jacket was an absolute steal from Depop where a very lovely seller was selling it brand new and unworn for just £18- I had my eye on it when it was £65 in River Island!

Excuse my light reflecting legs. Come. On. Summer. 

 

It feels like summer is well and truly on it's way, THANK THE LORD!! *hands in the air emoji* 

Love love

Crop it like it's hot...

Hey loves, I hope you've all had a lovely bank holiday. Four days always sounds like such a long time but somehow manages to go by so quickly!

I spent Good Friday with my boyfriend Will, who surprised me with brunch and whisked me to Brighton for the day- what a good egg. 

I'm so happy to dig out this vintage CK tee (bought on Depop last summer but I can only imagine it's from Beyond Retro).

Yes, I am shamefully showing off my tattoo in these photos. Guilty. 

Judging by these photos I need to put down the Easter eggs! Have you had a nice break? What have you been getting up to? 

Love love 

A xoxo
