Whoo Whoo...The Rolling Stones

Yesterday I went to see the Rolling Stones at Hyde Park and, my god, they were amazing! (As a warning this post will be full of endless gibbering about how good they were!)

They started the set with a bang of fireworks and Start me up. Jagger swaggered on (had to write it) in a gold embroidered jacket and Keith rocked up with a burberry tartan scarf draped over one shoulder and his trademark hairband. They are literally too cool! I don't know how they did it at their age (they're nearing seventy) but they had boundless energy! Jagger was dancing around, strutting down the catwalk that stuck out the front of the stage into the audience.

Even Mick Taylor joined them on the stage for a song to reminisce his first ever gig with them in 1969 on that very stage - A-M-AZING!

They played my fave song (Bitch-coz love is a bitch. True story) and finished the encore with Satisfaction! I have to say I think that was the best gig I've ever gone to! They played with such energy and enjoyment that it was just fantastic to be there! And it was lovely to have gone with my dad and brother too! My dad saw them in the 70s and thought they were even better now than back then!

But anyway, I'll stop rambling and post an OOTD for yesterday. Excuse the pitchfork in the foreground, I live on a farm if I haven't mentioned!


Sunhat - old
Dress - Topshop
Shoes - Fatface 


Me, Dad and Bro at Hyde Park! 


Mick!

Start Me Up

Todays the day...I'm off to see the Stones! Yusssss!

Pretty god damn excited! My dad has played their songs in our house since I was a wee one so it's nice that I'm going with him and my brother!

I'll do an outfit post later on, but I'm basically wearing a straw trilby, black and white zodiac dress from Topshop (too cool!) and loafers.

Plus I'm taking my new ostrich bag! Beaautiful! Not exactly rock n roll but it'll fit all my stuff in it!


You can find this lovely bag at Miss Selfridge or click here. 

I'll take lots of pictures! Have a lovely weekend readers!

Cute Collars

A bit of a random post today! I'm struggling for blogging inspiration at the moment, work is draining it out of me!

I've noticed that I'm wearing a lot of collars at the moment! If my tops don't have one on I tend to add one with a necklace, or fold a collared shirt over a jumper.



What would you like to see me posting about?

OOTD Grey Daze

My lovely followers may remember my H&M bargain, a grey dip hem dress that was only £14.99 (blog post here). And today was the perfect day to wear it.

The weather was so beautiful and I finally got my legs out without any tights! It was still a bit breezy so I added a pastel coloured cardigan to keep me warm. I also styled it with a pearl collar to make it more formal and add a cute twist.


Sorry for the rubbish photos, my face hates the camera!

What did you wear in this lovely sunshine?

OOTD: Black and White


Leggings, New Look
Shoes, Asos
Jumper, Asos
Necklace, Matalan



If anyone saw me today, then you'll know this wasn't todays outfit! 

This morning I had to get up at 5am to catch a train back to university for an 11am lecture :( 

So I looked a bit worse for wear, with no makeup and incredibly messy hair! Ah well! 

This photo was from yesterday. We had some family over for lunch to celebrate my Mum's birthday the day before and I was going for a comfy vibe. I love my cross leggings, they are so wearable! They are starting to fade as I wear them so much, so I'm looking to buy some more!

Have you seen any lovely leggings around?

OOTD: Red Red Wine


Today is my mum's birthday (Happy Birthday Mum!). 
I wore this outfit to take her out for coffee and cake this afternoon and then to the local pub with the family this evening. 

Today was so nice! It felt like the start of summer! The sun was out, the birds were singing and I was sitting in a pub garden!

Unfortunately, I still had to wear tights and a cardigan, but I'm hoping the day's not far away when I can wear my midi-dress without them! 


I did match my handbag and shoes today, some would say this is the proper thing to do, and others would say it looks daft.

Personally, I like the tradition. I'm a vintage girl, so I think matching your handbag and shoes is a classy thing, but not always doable anymore! 

My gorgeous boyfriend bought me the Pandora ring I've been lusting after for ages for our anniversary. It's my favourite item :)

After you've finished vomiting, I have to do a big shout out to Topshop about my faux fur cardigan. I've had it for about two and half years and it is still in shape. It still has its fur with very little fall out and washes like a dream! It was expensive when I bought it, (about £60) but is such a good investment.

OOTD: Oranges & Lemons...

Shirt, Primark
Leggings, New Look
Necklace, Matalan

I'm doing a colour AND print clash today! I love this eye catching print shirt from Primark but only usually wear it with dark colour bottoms. Today I thought I'd add my mustard yellow bag to add another colour pop (very Spring/Summer 2013!).

OOTD - First Day Interning

What I wore today... first day interning at Velvet Magazine!
Blazer, M&S
Jumper, £20, ASOS
Leggings, New Look
Necklace, £10, Matalan
And I was wearing my black chelsea boots from Topshop, £60. 

I love the pop of colour the blazer gives to the outfit! Sorry about the rubbish picture, I tried getting my dad to take one for me but they came out blurry, bless him! 

The jumper is still available from Asos.
