That Fashion Eye

I wear your granddads clothes

I wear your granddads clothes.

My big ass coat is from that thrift shop down Leigh Road.

Seriously though, Macklemore's song is so dope.

It really describes so may thrifty fashionistas like myself.

This jacket did actually cost 99 cents ...well £1 which is close.

I saw this jacket and had to buy it! I have nothing suede and wanted something oversized for ages, I didn't want a typical oversized denim like everyone else so I'm so glad I bought this granddad jacket.

Tip: When charity shop shopping bring a friend, sometimes you'll want something because it's cheap or think it's got a thifty edgy, but some things are plain GROSS. Saying that, Ebony didn't like this jacket so if you like it, and know it, then get it. The money goes to a good cause!

The Shiny Show

These Primark leggings for £3 are so shiny, kids would be clambering for these if they were on the shiny show!

I've had this top since a couple of Christmas's ago but it's only the second time I've worn it. I mentioned to my brother that I liked it, and being the best brother ever he surprised me and bought it for £32. Wowzar.

The cut was horrible and I thought it was a bit gai so I never wore it. I decided that as it cost so much I felt I had to give it another go. I slashed the sleeves and made a deep drop arm so it was less lame. I must have been 14/15 when I got it so I'm glad the new cut has transformed it into something more mature and edgy.

I'd show you a better picture but I didn't want to expose my side boob, not that there's much there!

Another reason why I was reluctant to wear the top was because it's PAUL'S BOUTIQUE, but I've gone past the stage of being a label snob because it's not what you where, it's how you wear it. You can't really tell it's from PB though!

Night 4: Kingston Karaoke

I didn't have time to take photos of my outfit because I was having too much fun! Mwhaha.

I wore:

Navy Disco Pants: MissGuided - £22.99

Baroque collar and cuff shirt: MissGuided - £22.99

Black crop top: Topshop - £10

I wore a crop top underneath because the shirt was way to sheer to be wearing in front of old people (young adults haha).

Woo it's Nikki :)

Thought I'd have a quick bathroom photo shoot with my sister's boyfriend! @PatLeeX .

^^^^The funniest drunk^^^^

You can see the gold cuff here!

Pleading for JoJo to come to K!

JoJo came to Dingwalls and co owns @TheWhiteNoiseUK with Louise!

Day 4: NANDOS SKANK

I'm a Nandos skank who loves the Nandos skank!

Primark Floral - £10

Tweed Skirt- H n M - £12.99

This half term was like one big family gathering. Liz, Nikki and I met our brother for a "cheeky" (how a Nando's can be cheeky I don't know! ) Nando's which he paid for. How cute.

But before that, Liz's friend Nikki and I went for a quick shop in Bentalls. I found some...dare I say it... FLUORESCENT NEON LEGGINGS.

Without being conceited, ever since I can remember, I've always been a strut ahead of the crowd. When me and my friends were rocking our mini shorties and skater dresses (this was considered cool) at school disco's, trying not to look 11, other girls would be wearing their neon tutu's. An accessory I've never worn. I've always sworn against neon and it's obnoxious gleam until this day.

I've been so impressed with how designers have been inspired by neon and turned something I've abhorred for years into something cool. That's what I love about fashion. It creates beautifully hideous clothing (turning something hideous into something beautiful). So I caved. I'M SORRY! After all "It's not what you wear it's how you wear it".

Liz bought us food! yay :)

Liz et moi et the fabulous Nikki!

Day 3: Sporty Spice

Good morning.

So today we had to go to the library again before we hit badminton so I had to dress for the day and sports. I tried to be practical, but with fashion it's difficult.

FASHION IS NOT ABOUT PRACTICALITY GAWD DAMN IT.

I wore one of my sisters cotton tee's and wore my comfortable Lycra leggings. I just had to put on the belt as an accessory to make up for how I was looking. Tbh I think I managed to pull of sports luxe pretty well.

Liz's New Look conversetype things.

Head's up. Patterned fur is still a trend for this summer.

Day 2: Monochrome Madness

On day 2 visiting my sister.

I strutted along with her Topshop boots to the University where I met another one of her friend's Nicki, I know, my sister's Miss Popular! After that we went to meet more of her friend's and watched this Korean comedy which I thought would be totally unfunny. Surprisingly, I began to understand my sister's Korean infatuation. It was hilarious.

I've said it once and I'll say it again. I LOVE LAYERING.

I layered my new crop top over my dogtooth shift. This is by far one of my favourite outfits because it's monochrome chic but youthful and revitalised!

Boots: Topshop

Bag: Zara

Shift: H n M - £19.99

Crop: Topshop - £10.00

Hat and necklace: H n M

Newlook Dog Tooth Trousers: £20

Night 1: Allen Stone; The King de la chapeau

Today was the first day me and my sister were properly going out on the raz together and I was a little anxious. At first I didn't want to go because I was worried we'd argue or I'd cramp her; this happens a lot. But, it was actually SO bloody sick and kick-started the rest of a good half term with her!

Liz rocking my fedora better than me, and pulling it off with a matching coloured Louis satchel! So chic.

Oh and that random hand in the corner is my sisters Asian best friend - Louise.

Whilst we waited for Louise to fetch her ticket we bonded over being vein and taking some sister snaps hahaha. (I look the same in both but there aren't many of my sister to show!

She's hawt.

Ooops. I bet at a quick glance you thought that was my sister. YOU RACIST.

Nope, I present to you the owner of that infamous hand, Louissssssse.

Originally it was just her, her friend and Liz going to Dingwalls to see Allen stone in Camden but then I showed up :) surprise!

She co owns an underground music magazine too, so if you're a cool kid ( which you must be if you're reading the blog ) then follow her.

ALLEN, ALLEN, STEVE STEVE.

His performance at Dingwalls, Camden was amazing. His raspy tone of soul was literally music to my ears. At first we we're at the back, but eventually Louise shoved us to the front and I was so close he was spitting on me! I would've opened my mouth but that's too weird, even for me.

At the end of the show he gave me a hug ( because I asked lol ) and I even felt his damp golden locks brush my neck! He also said he liked my sisters (my) hat! COOL DUDE!
