OOTD: lilacism.

Jumper Cotton On/ Shirt Glassons/ Jeans Glassons/ Shoes Jeffrey Campbell Glen/ Glasses Alexander Wang/ Necklace Topshop/ Lips D'Lilac by Limecrime.

Lilac is currently one of my favourite colours for Spring. As I'm such a fan of coordination I was thrilled when I found this jumper for only $10 as it matches my shirt and lipstick perfectly. It's a very light knit which will be perfect as the weather gets warmer and enjoy the long length and dipped hem. Also new in is the shard necklace which I nabbed for pence in the Topshop sale. It arrived (along with a few other items you'll see soon) on my birthday so was like another present from myself really x

OOTD: in my birthday suit.

Here I am in my birthday suit...not quite, but I did indeed wear a suit on my birthday. I paired the matching geometric print with a simple black top, which was my mum's from the 80's, and my amazing new JC Stunners which were a birthday present to myself. I am literally in love with these shoes! Although they're a little big (nothing an insole can't fix) they are very comfortable and easy to walk in, something I can vouch for as I spent the day walking around town doing some spontaneous shopping. Overall I had a fantastic day, got rather spoilt and enjoyed a lovely dinner with friends that ended with Gangnam style at 1am. OOTN to come x

OOTD: denim + spikes.

A casual look today featuring my contrast denim shirt from ASOS. I think the subtle stripe and spot pattern clash is a great unexpected twist to a such a popular item x

OOTD: darian.

Shirt Glassons/ Disco Pants American Apparel/ Shoes Jeffrey Campbell Darian/ Necklace + Earrings Nasty Gal/ Bracelet Marc by Marc Jacobs/ Glasses Rayban Wayfarers/ Lips Hazard by Topshop.

It seems another pair of Jeffrey Campbells have snuck their way into my wardrobe. Yesterday I went shopping for a running singlet and instead came home with the Darian wedges. It was never a style I was particularly lusting after but when I saw them they definitely grew on me, and as they were on final clearance I couldn't seem to pass up the bargain. The shirt is also a recent sale purchase, I love the mirrored floral effect and how it matches the Nasty Gal necklace that arrived this morning, along with bonus earrings. I'm usually a complete stud girl, but thought I'd try the dangly ones for a change x

shadow stud.

jeffrey campbell

Call me crazy but I have become completely obsessed with the Jeffrey Campbell Shadow Studs. Although I've seen them around the Internet for several months it wasn't until seeing them on Sunbeams Jess that I became infatuated. I know they are totally impractical, but I am a lover of so-called crazy shoes, and something about these has got me hooked. I'm also partial to a few studs here and there, but these are just...insane! Now their original price tag definitely wouldn't warrant the wear I would get out of such shoes, but now considering they're less than half price I'm not sure I can resist. What would you do? x

OOTD: sports twist.

Witness the first time I have worn blue jeans in 2 years! I found these blue acid wash jeggings when I was sorting out my wardrobe a few months ago but it wasn't until today I decided to resurrect them. I must say they are really comfortable and although they are jeggings, they look and feel more like jeans. I'm quite enjoying the change from my usual black so paired them with a royal blue shirt, white pleather vest and wedge trainers for a slightly urban sports look x

new in: scents.

daisy

My beloved Daisy Eau So Fresh has been on its last legs for about a month so when it finally ran out last week I decided to repurchase it along with the new Dot Eau De Parfum also by Marc Jacobs. Needless to say, I'm a fan of both scents as they're fresh, not too heavy and have just the right amount of sweetness. The bottles are also pretty cool x

I'm back to blonde after washing out the pink, and having it recoloured today. I also decided to go for a change in the styling and push my fringe back which looks somewhat 'There's Something About Mary-esque' although the wind has been wreacking havoc with it. As for the outfit, it's a very casual look wearing a comfy cardigan, pleather panel jeans and flatform brogues with my quintessential collared shirt to add a polished touch x

OOTD: flowerbomb.

Blazer Primark/ Trousers Primark/ Shirt Equipment/ Creepers Glassons/ Glasses Alexander Wang.

I picked up this floral suit when I was in the UK earlier this year but the weather has only recently got warm enough to get it out of the wardrobe. I am truly addicted to patterned suits at the moment and love how polished, yet quirky they look. The silk shirt was a recent purchase in the sale at Quinns, and is probably one of my greatest bargains at around 75% off. The mint colour is perfect for spring, so when I spotted these creepers in the exact coordinated shade, I couldnt resist them x

Essay procrastination...why not turn my hair pink? Although I rather like it, its not permanent. I used a Colour Bug by Kevin Murphy, and think they're such a great idea for a pop of unexpected colour on a grey day x

A simple black and white outfit today with a pop of burgundy lipstick. I've been wearing pants a lot lately so decided to wear a skirt again, and paired it with a jumper I've had for a while but not yet worn. I like the fact it's a hoodie but a little more sophisticated than your usual sweatshirt style x
