OOTD: Bad Hair Day

12 April, 2012

Waistcoat: Urban Outfitters (old), Christmas Present | Vest: River Island Sale, £12 | Disco Pant Dupes: Urban Outfitters (w/ discount), £18 | Allegra Boots: Topshop, £75 | Earrings: Miss Selfridge Sale, £1

I picked up this vest in the River Island sale last week. It's unlike anything else I own, but I'm in love with the colours of it. It could prove to be an ideal festival top this summer tucked into some denim shorts! River Island is such a 'hit and miss' shop for me, as some seasons their collections are completely tacky and market-stall worthy, then the next they step up their game with some must-have pieces. I always find myself waiting for the sale though, because I have to admit their sales are one of my favourites! They pretty much throw everything into sale every few months!

I'm having such a bad hair day, which is probably down to the fact I haven't washed it in what feels like forever. I hate washing my hair, it's such a chore especially the longer it gets. I've just thrown it into a top-knot and it's just exaggerated how bad my roots are! I never realised how dark my natural colour is! It almost looks pretty much black! I must admit, I wasn't going to blog today. I've got some 'personal issues' (God, I hate that phrase!) I need to work my way through. However, I enjoy blogging and it's a form of escape in a way, so I thought why shouldn't I?!
