outfit #8 - the v&a

t-shirt - camden lock / jacket - dirty harrys brighton / jeans - cheap monday / boots - faith / necklaces - boot sale & primark / bag - mulberry tillie hobo

today i went to the v&a museum for the first time with brit, despite living in london i never take full advantage or have touristy days. the weather means i am lacking in inspiration for any good outfits and have been living in jeans and t-shirts.

the museum is free and filled with loads of amazing jewellery and fashion most of which you can't photograph but i managed to get a few in before i got told to put away my camera,

I am thinking about making museum trips a weekly thing and will definitely be going back to the v&a

hair, there, everywhere - outfit

shirt - charity shop / jumper - american apparel / collar tips - goodhood

tee - charity shop / jacket - ebay / bag - mulberry tillie hobo / jeans - cheap monday

rings - bootsale/topshop/ebay

£2 charity shop! (not sure if that's a bargain or not?)

despite the unpredictability of the weather and it's wind I decided to let my hair down (only literally) also I was too lazy to straighten it. after many years of struggling, bleaching and relaxing i've finally got my hair in a good condition from the use of afro-carribean conditioners, moroccan oil and getting a regular trim every 8 weeks. it's not as good as it could be as I have home dyed it about 6 times this year and abused it with the ghd's. i'm going to monitor it and try some new products as well as hair vitamin tablets which I will at some point blog about.

this weekend didn't consist of much due to lack of money except charity shopping, a wander along the beach and a street party. I always feel my hair has to match the outfit so thought i'd go for something a bit grungy/masculine in the camo tee and jacket.

this is one of my fav nail designs at the moment as it's so subtle and easy to do (with a sponge and any two colours) and can be jazzed up with some jewels or drawing. 

my outfits seem to be pretty repetitive at the moment as I haven't been doing anything exciting, but hopefully this rain will stop and I can get a bit more free will in my outfit choices as well as FINALLY moving back to London and out of boredom at the end of this month.

Christmas

These 3 things have been the only things I could think of for my christmas list:

Cheap Monday Second Skin Jeans - I've never owned a pair of cheap mondays nor a pair of high-waisted jeans, but I fell in love. Perfect for day and night and perfect fit, only flaw is the zipper has a mind of it's own which means I have to safety pin the zip shut, to avoid 'your flies are undone'.

YSL ring - This christmas ask was a bit of an ask because of the price, but if you don't ask you don't get. This ring brightens up any black evening outfit, addicted to anything large and gold anyway, worth the price as hopefully it will last me years. It can be bought on
net-a-porter

Russell and Bromley brown loafers - Always wanted a pair of these, summer or winter they still remain a classic. These shoes are available in all of the Russell and Bromley shops.
