In my dreams

Whoa whoa WHOA, waaaay to long with no post. Sorry dudes, let's just pretend the last 2 weeks never happened, k? Just dropping in for a quick post for now, and hopefully I'll have some cool features lined up for y'all soon.
I've come in possession of some pretty amazing pieces lately, thrifted and some not (very rare for me if you've noticed!). Example, these perrrrrfect Topshop jeans! My friend who was away in England for uni just came back 2 weeks ago, but before she left there I gave her a shopping list of things to get for me... one of them being these jeans! I've been searching for the perfect pair of high waisted, super flared jeans for literally months after seeing Selina's amazing jean find and the inspiration behind them. I had been mostly looking on eBay, but haden't come across anything I love for a decent price. Then through some kind of perfectly timed miracle I was browsing Topshop's online shop when I saw these jeans. It was fate. They're from the Tall line so they're suuuuper long, which I love cos I can wear massive plaforms and they still graze the ground. Seriously guys, I'm in love and I'm going to have a very 70's summer with these bad boys, a la Dazed and Confused.

Check me out, hangin at a strip mall. Badass.


Not a bad fit considering I didn't get to try them on, just blindly picked a size to be honest!

So that's it for now, maybe I'll have some quicky updates soon on what I've been up to and show some of the other great things I've found... perhaps even a DIY or two? Lord knows I haven't done one in ages. We'll see!

Oh man those look amazing on you. I need a pair of flares and clogs and i'm set to go.

Your green hair is gone :O are you gonna dye it a diff colour/green again/leave it as is? I FINALLY bought a bleaching kit and some manic panic hair dye in vampire red. It's semi-permanent, so when it washes out my tips are gonna stay.. dead and (hopefully) blonde-ish. Oh yeah i'm only dying the tips == i'm too wimpy to bleach my whole head sigh.

Umm what last 2 weeks are you talking abt? So far as i'm concerned, the last 2 weeks never existed. (; winkywinkwinkity.

Love,
mimi

You look really good in flares. I've tried so many different brands and they have always been waaay too short which made them look awkward and stupid. These are perfect. By the way I love your food blog, so yummy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLIEEEE!! <3

Okay so now you're making me want to wear flare pants again. They look freaking amazing on you! I love the whole '70s vibe you've got going on.
And I can't wait to see what DIYs you come up with! I've been so uninspired with sewing lately, maybe you'll be able to change that for me? ^.^

Re: Jay
LOL you're right I did do a TB video, I never posted it on my blog cos I was so embarrassed tbh. I clearly didn't have a lot of practice in front of the camera. The "and then you want to..." 's were a bit much, haha!

Jay said...

Lol totally understandable, talking to a camera is a strange strange feeling.
