complaining abuot my style and recent clothes.

Gals (and guys), I seem to be having a bit of a problem at the moment but I'm sure a lot of you have had (or do have) a similar problem.

I appear to be having a bad case of "Style schizophrenia". I just don't know how I want to dress anymore.

When I open my wardrobe I just stare in with a dead face. it's annoying because I know I have a lot of clothes but nothing matches with anything else. I attempted to clear out my wardrobe to take out the things that I don't wear anymore too see if this would help me.

And now my wardrobe is void of colour, lets count how many coloured things we can see!

I counted 4. 

Where's the colour?

It's all in here, in the draw of stuff I don't wear anymore. I'm probably going to sell this stuff

It's funny because I really like colourful clothes and thought I wore a lot of colour but apparently not...

I can't seem to find many things to my taste in the shops and even gal online stores have been leaving me feeling a bit uninspired recently...

I need more drapey floaty things my my life. And tutuHa, lots of tutuHa and Murua. and D.i.a

I did manage to get a few things in the last coupe of days. Nothing that interesting but good staples for my wardrobe.

I got a black maxi dress from H&M for £12 because I thought it would be good for Mode-gyaru coordinates.
 Styled it up with some round River Island sunglasses, bangles, metal necklace and litas.

i also got some earrings from River Island for £10
 Lovely and glam <3 I don't have enough earrings. Need more.

Some Too Faced lip injection extreme gloss.
 This stuff is a MIRACLE for girls with thin lips i.e myself. It stings like hell but its so worth it, just don't get it no anymore besides directly on your lips or you will look like you have herpes.
 This magical La Senza Bra for £25. I always complain how UK bras don't compare to the frilly awesomeness of MA*RS style bras but this was suitably frilly and impractical enough for me to want it.

I actually went back a few days later and got the matching underwear.



I shit you not, this is the first pair of matching underwear I have ever owned. I don't like thongs normally but look how cute it is!

I also got a turquoise ring from H&M for about £4.

 Styling up my dress again

Right that was a shitty entry, I'll try and write a better one next time.

I'm sure everyone has phases of hating their clothes, what do you guys do to over-come it??

Emmie's hipster shopping trip

Long time no blog! I've been so lazy~

The weather's been so lovely recently I just haven't felt like doing anything but I ventured out today to London do some serious shopping as I've been having withdrawals.

I went to Oxford street, as usual! It's usually pretty quiet on Wednesdays, especially at around 11o'clock, the time I normally go up there but it was strangely busy today...
still didn't deter me!!

So on reaching Oxford street, the heavens decided to open and it was basically a torrential down pout of rain the entire time I was shopping. Somehow this caused one of the soles of my boots to come away from the rest of the boot, not that you could really notice it but I'm a bit annoyed that I can't wear them anymore... in the bin they go!

SO my first port of call in Oxford street was Office Shoes! I haven't bought shoes in ages but I did go in there for a specific reason...  

 Lets see what's in this giant-ass bag....

 SHOES OF COURSE. But they're not just any shoes...
 They're Jeffrey Campbell 'Lita' boots
 IN TAUPE SUEDE!!!

This probably means nothing to a lot of you but basically I've been wanting to get hold of these hipster-magnets for a long time and I've only just bought them and I feel all tingly inside~

When the shop assistant brought them out I nearly had a heart attack and when I took them to the till  was suddenly surrounded by another 2 staff congratulating me on my excellent choice of footwear and that they all had a pair. I felt like I was a member of an elite club!
 THEY GO WITH EVERYTHING.

Oh yeah on with the other stuff. After feeling guilty over spending £120 on shoes (£108 with student discount!), but still in clothes I decided to brave Primark.

Primark is Oxford street a force to be reckoned with especially when its raining but I was brave ;_;
I wanted to try a vintage- [how I hate that word]esque look, hence why I bought these particular things. I don't normally buy clothes like these but I wanted to try something different!

and obviously I'll put a Gal twist on it when I style it up~

Simple black bag. It's spring now and as much as I love my furry River Island shoulder bag, I shall put it away for next autumn/winter.

it doesn't really show up in the photo but it's faux leather.


 Rope necklace thingy. I don't know what attracted me to this, maybe because I've been staring at too many Mode-gyaru brand web-stores recently but it's quite lovely! It makes me want to wear a bikini and hunt for a beach.
 Leopard print wrap. I don't know what you're supposed to call this silhouette (I thought it was a kimono sleeve top, but there seem to be no kimono sleeves...) It's really sheer and feels like chiffon. You can wear it tied up, as pictured, or let the the ends hang down.


It looks quite peachy in the picture but the skirt is more of a terracotta colour with cute little razor pleats.
It was called a size 8/10 but when I tried to pull it on, I could hear threads in the top hem snap as the elastic stretched x_x That's Primark quality for you aye!

A trip to John Lewis looking for black gel eyeliner (which I forgot to buy =_=) I came out with the blusher I posted in my March Want list; Nar's Angelika!

The camera flash drowned out the pink a bit but if you look on My want list 2 entries back, you can see it's true colour~




and lastly, a cape. I didn't buy this from London, I ordered it from ASOS a few days ago and it happened to appear on my door-step when I arrived back from London much to my delight!

On the hanger, it does look like it's just a blanket... Come to think of it, it basically is; a blanket with a slit going half way through the middle.

It sort of just hangs off your arms. It's super comfortable and perfect for Spring.

I had my 4th and 5th (it was a double lesson) driving lesson today and nobody died and I didn't total my instructors car so in my opinion that was a very successful day of driving!

I shall leave you with a song
