Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag.

This is just a little outfit I put together for the panto after party (which is a week after the actual shows) I have some photograph's of the garments which I'll do a post on when I finally get a chance. I already realise you've seen everything I'm wearing in this at least one if not multiple times, well I'm remixing to create new looks and I have to say I really like the whole look of this final outcome.

So what am I wearing? This utterly lovely blazer I got my hands on in one of my favourite charity shops, Its originally from Bhs petite and scoring it for just over five pound was totally worth sending it to the cleaners for, it's my all purpose jacket i can throw it over anything. Most definitely had my moneys worth out of this! The dress you would of seen recently as it's from the evans sale, I have worn it so many times already it was also worth the price I payed for it. Then of course my tights are just basic 60 denier black tights from primark they come in a pack of three for 2 pound though unfortunately now they no longer make them high waisted so they seem to fall down much easier now. These shoes I wear all the time from popping them on for college to going out for a meal or even out to clubs for birthdays, I'm not really a high heels type of girl and these seem to just be dressy enough without me having to walk on stilts. The brogue flats were from Evans and at the time I got them discounted and they are just lovely. My bag is another charity shop find I got it a couple of years ago for about 1.50 and I just think it finishes off outfits nicely without having to have a bulky strap slung across my body.

I finished the outfit off with a really adorable rose ring from Dorothy Perkins which I got as a gift off one of the women in my dressing room as a thank you for helping her with all the quick changes and just being organised ( I may not be in my own life but I am when I'm working with costumes!) Then a slick of pillar box red lipstick which actually survived the night and my face covered in dream matte mouse and powder, then I was good to go.


These last two images are just to show you how the night went... lets just say I may of drank a tiny bit too much oh and that's my mum I'm glaring at on the picture above. I don't think she's been seen on my blog before, so erm here you go. And again below is me and my mum possibly arguing but most definitely NOT dancing! Yes I realise there not the most flattering photographs but at least they bring a smile to my face.

She hates the sun 'cause it proves she's not alone.

And the world doesn't revolve around her soul, no she loves the sky 'cause it validates her

pride, never lets her know when she is wrong.

Finally another outfit post sorry its been a week but the things i often wear for college really aren't worth posting up, ha ha. Though i think i would probably wear this outfit for college but with a cardigan under the jacket because it can get pretty nippy in that big old building which i secretly love. I took these photographs on Thursday and to tell you guys the truth i wasn't feeling very well at all so as soon as i did these i swapped into a baggy top and cardigan and tried to fix my computer, write essays and personal statements all really enjoyable tasks..... I also found out on Thursday that my grandad was rushed to the doctor's due to a really swollen face and hes still sounding really rough about it all, hopefully he'll be back to his dandy self in no time...

Anyway here's what I'm wearing The jacket was original for BHS but i thrifted it from a charity shop at Easter for about 5 pounds and i wear this EVERYWHERE it can look casual or smart its comfy and can keep the chill out it even came with it's spare buttons! Though normally i stick to black coats and blazers I'm slowly filtering into the more navy end of the market. The top i am wearing is relatively new from Dorothy Perkins sale and is ever so comfy its a loose fitting style with a very relaxed shape, I think it would be perfect for hotter days but at the moment i layer it with a long t-shirt underneath. I have no idea where the scarf is from i found in my mum's sock draw when i was about 10 and I've finally started to wear it now, the piece itself has really lovely detailed colours printed onto it and the scarf is also a very rich and deep colour. My bag is originally from Cl arks but i also picked this up at one of the many charity shops i go searching around, whenever i use this bag i think somewhere there's a woman with matching shoes looking for the perfect bag while I'm looking for the perfect shoes. i just wore Evans leggings on the bottom and i have to admit these leggings are my wardrobe staple I don't know that I'd do without them sometimes.

I really love experimenting with lipsticks and I'm more than happy to walk around my house in a rainbow's array of colours, but as soon as i step out i feel really of coneious that people could possibly be giggling because its on my teeth... This lippie was really cheap from superdrug but works surprisingly well, i used some clear powder over it to mattify the look and i have to say i might get the balls to do this in public in the future too.

So tomorrow I'm off for a spot of fabric shopping then bonfire, do any of you wonderful people have any plans for the bonfire weekend?
