I swear it one day we'll gonna leave this town


Outfit:
Beach print dress: Primark
Crochet cream long cardigan: Topshop
Grey tights: Mums drawer
Grey pumps: Primark
Cream statement ring: Primark

I am not in my bedroom taking pictures! As it was such a lovely day, I walked to Uni with no coat on, I begged the mother to take pictures of me in the garden. I love just wearing a cardigan!

This was the one dress in the Primark S/S 11 lookbook that I just had to have. I remember lusting over the Prada versions a while back, Carey Milligan had one. So when I spotted this it was a must buy! It is quite short so it will have be a dress only worn with tights. I won't be able to wear it in the summer. Im not sure I like my hair straight, usually I tie it up in a bun when its half dry to increase my natural waves. It just seems to lack volume. I have tried to backcomb it a bit at the roots but it still looks limp to me.

I am off round my boyfriends dads girlfriends house for dinner tonight. Boy that was a bit of a mouthful eh? I have never been round there before but my boyfriend says its massive and she has an all important games room. Exciting stuff! I love having a nosy round someones house! Anyone else the same?

Off to see Cage the Elephant tomorrow at the Electric Ballroom. I saw them at Reading in 2008 and they were crazy to say the least! The lead singer had a pink tutu on swigging from a bottle of Jager so hopefully it will more of the same tomorrow ha!

  6. Love the dress, go Primark! I think your hair looks fine but I know what you mean, mine kind of hangs a bit limply unless I tie it up first, I guess the weight drags it down a bit if you've got thick hair! xx

  20. Good morning Sophie, found you via Amy's blog and what a lovely blog you have. I remember the pay day feel but in my day pay day was a brown envelope with cash in and it came every week - such bliss trotting off en mass in our pvc macs down to Chelsea Girl to find the latest look in mini skirts - so thanks for the memory and if you fancy a virtual coffee please feel free to visit me any time.
    Take care, keep safe, be happy
