Adoring the Maltese-er Experience

Desperate for some sunshine I booked a last minute flight to Malta this Easter Break. It was amazing - there's so much history and beautiful buildings knocking about. I just wanted a beach break, a full week of doing nothing but it ended up being a bit of a city/island hopping break. Two other gorgeous islands just north of Malta - Gozo and Comino - were worth a visit. Not as hot as I wanted - explains the jeans - but I pushed through and have the cringe tan lines to show for it. 

Here's my wardrobe diary this holiday.

Till Hell Freezes Over

I've just booked my holiday for hot North Africa for later on this year and decided I was ready for sunshine and summer dresses. Then I woke up to this... :( Bent on wearing heels and summery clothes anyway I've layered up and added my wool hat. I will not let the weather beat me today! 

Today I'm wearing:

Pink Bow - Forever21 (saftey pinned onto my hat)

Dress - Urban Outfitters

Shirt - H&M

Boots - Jeffrey Campbells

February Feeling

The past few weeks have been freezing but super sunny which has got me excited about the coming Spring. Colours are creeping their way back into my black attire and to keep me warm I've tried to channel colours through my accessories - for example my red Irregular choice shoes or through bright nail colours. I'm also really feeling a fringe finish on practically everything at the moment. Fringe bags, shirts, skirts, jackets and my latest fringed item are these pleather shorts from Boohoo.com - they're amazing! They make my otherwise flat packed buttocks look peachy...

Fitting In

Jeans. I don't wear them and yet I'm still bent on finding the perfect pair. The ones I'm wearing today were picked up from a charity shop in South Yorkshire ages ago. They're old Levi's and cost me £2 - I had the intention of slicing them up and adding leather pockets and studs so I could sell them on but I kind of like them as they are! Who knows how much I'll wear them...but today I'm loving them with a high heel and a casual jumper.

Today I'm wearing:

Slouchy jumper - Silence + Noise at Urban Outfitters

Levi's Jeans - Charity shop

Bandage heels - River Island

Necklace - Primark

Shell bag - Primark

Sunglasses H&M

Ice Toes

So it was mega stupid to leave the house today in open toe sandals but my outfit was so blahhgh I had to add some shine - and since I literally had to hop across the lawn and into the car, I convinced myself (like everytime) that fashion trumps function... And besides, it's not like I wasn't wearing my glamorous thermal underwear underneath. I should have painted my nails but hey hoo...today I'm wearing.

Today I'm wearing:

Black bobble hat - Doncaster Market

grey open back tee - Urban Outfitters
Tiger print jacket - Vintage Kilo sale in East London

Leatherette Leggings - Topshop

Shiny cork heeled sandals - Dorothy Perkins

Black textured leather bag - DKNY

Blaze Amaze

This Winter has felt pretty grim and the mood and been reflected in my wardrobe with blacks and dark colours. So today despite the frosty sharp temperatures I put on my favourite red shoes to add a bit of energy to my outfit. Today I'm wearing a vintage blazer I picked up at a vintage kilo sale - the big shoulder pads made me feel a bit butch so also a perfect reason to wear some seriously girl ginham shoes. The leggings are a DIY project, I practiced on a cheapy pair of Primark ones for £3 - they worked well so will be doing a post about them soon!

By the way, its not safe to stand with your back to traffic in the road, please do not try this at home :)
