Oldschool Topshop dress OOTN

Today I figured I should probably get out of my house and do something with my life so I decided to get the bus to Norwich, my nearest City and go to all the charity shops as I rarely have time to do them all. I was pretty unlucky, didn't find anything excet a jacket I will blog about tomorrow so I decided to get the bus back after like an hour and a bit there. I figured to cheer me self up over my fail of a charity shop sesh I would do the charity shops in town and this is wear I was pretty lucky! I found 2 Topshop dresses! The one that's going to be in this Blogpost is an old school one, like the Topshop label is different and vintage like. So it must be pree old, but it's very pretty. Like heavy kind of clingy material but flattering on me as it clings at the top then goes out slightly so doesn't cling to my huge ass and hips :) It has a pretty flowery design on it that is very subtle! I would happily wear this dress clubbing/out as I think it's soo pretty but classy and not trashyyy and trashy is not my style :D Also this dress was £5.99 which some may think is expensive for charity shops, but 1. this is a Topshop dress 2.It's possibly vintage and 3. It's not like I can buy my clothes anywhere else!

Oh and I apologise for the photos being in my Kitchen.. as there is so much stuff everywhere in there and it's really bright and it may be too much for your eyes! I decided it was too cold for outside and the other room I usually take photos in was real messy so the kitchen had to do. Enjoy the yellowness.
Oh and I was wearing a red bra during these stupidly so had to touch it up so if you see any black marks that don't look right, that would be my really bad touching up skills :)

Why do I do this pose? It's like 'I dunno'






Too much crack. I am cray.

Summery dress OOTD

So I have soooooooo much stuff to blog about, it's getting a bit craycray! I will try and fit some more blogs in today! But for now, I am just going to blog about one dress. It's a beautiful dress :) I got this from a charityshop in Cromer which was raising money for a Church/Christian group I think. It was hanging near the door, and I grabbed it as soon as I saw it, hoping that it would fit! It was quite pricey for a charity shop.. £7.95 BUT still had the original New Look tag on that said £28 so I figured really for a new dress that hasn't been worn that isn't bad :)
It is white with red flowers all over it, I am crazy for florals/prints! Just think it makes an outfit so much more girly and cute! It's fitted at the top and then goes out, it has netting underneath so goes out a bit more than usual which I love! Feel like someone from Grease or something! It also has a cut out love heart shape at the back but I forgot to take a photo of this! I have it in mind to wear to a wedding, but tbh now the weather is getting hotter I am hoping there will be a few events in the evening where I can wear it to :)



I teamed it with my chunky black suede Ebay heels, originally Newlook and some red lippy. A simple yet visually interesting girly outfit :) I look forward to wearing this out soon!

Different patterns haul.

I love mid week days off :) Today was one of them, and my Dad also had a day off so we thought we would go out to Cromer :) There was actually a carboot sale there today that we looked around but I didn't get anything so not much to blog about there... my dad got some metal rusty thing though.. he seemed pretty excited about  it.. and he also got some really really old Norfolk maps... he was also very excited about these.. weird man.

I got more lucky in the charity shops, picking up 2 tops, a playsuit and a tray for my nail varnishes. I haven't taken photos the tops, or the tray, but photos will come :) The tray is pretty and floral though, and lives on my window sill with my nail varnishes looking pretty on it. One top is spotty and one is floral :)

So first thing I found was a playsuit with a perfume bottle design all over it. It's originally asos and super cute. I didn;t try it on in the shop because it was quite busy, and as it was only £3.50 I just figured if it didn't fit I'd give it away or something, but thankfully it fits perfect!

It's a lovely classy shape, wraps around my boobs and tucks me in just under them. Also keeps me nice and covered up top but shows my legs off (with tights on :P)

I paired it with simple suede black heels from Newlook (but I found them on ebay) and would also pair it with a black clutch if I was too go out.


 This photo shows the pattern a bit clearer, lots of different perfume bottle designs repeated :) Cute!

After Cromer, we popped to North Walsham, which is the town closest to where I live, it has LOTS of charity shops! I found a skirt, some bath stuff and a jumper :) I won't be blogging about the bath stuff although it is beauticology and chocolate scented, buuuut I shall be blogging about the clothes :)

The shirt is super pretty, blue with little white hearts on, it is originally primark and had the tag on for £6, I paid £3.99 :)
I teamed with a little white shirt from a charity shop, jelly shoes, and a charity shop find bag from ages ago, I proper reminded myself of the characters in Grease in this outfit :P





The next thing I found was a super cute jumper for £4.99! I found it in the same charity shop as the skirt :) It has boats all over it, and is super soft! It's by Frederik Anderson Copenhagen.. I have a feeling it's a men's jumper but I don't know much about the brand at all?? I teamed this with a spotty primark shirt that I cut the sleeves off, newlook jeans, primark bag and peacocks boots :) A more casual look than usual!



This is definitely an outfit I'd wear for a casual day out! The jumper is so cute! Ahhh sailing boots! And yes I love scrunchies atm!

So yes these were some of the things I got today :)
