O U T F I T | Atrocity Exhibition

Top: Urban Outfitters, £6 | Skirt: Urban Outfitters, £10 | Necklace: Matalan, £2 | Socks: Primark, £2 | Shoes: Urban Outfitters, £24

I've finally been reunited with the beloved internet at my house so I am blogging on a regular basis once again as well as catching up on all of my favourite reading material across the web. In the absence of the internet my boredom got the better of me and I've lightened my hair to blonde and finally acquired a nose piercing. I'm ever so impatient for it to heal though, so I can change it to a ring! You can partially see part of my new bedroom, which I'm absolutely in love with as it's the size of a small studio apartment.

This is an almost entirely Urban Outfitters outfit, however it's all relatively old. This skater skirt combines two of my ultimate favourite things: velvet & paisley. It's the perfect creation. These chunky, cut-out shoes were from the vintage renewal section and they are certainly shoes my mum would be proud of. When I was a kid she would forever try and persuade me to get 'sensible', chunky, buckled school shoes which I always turned my nose up at. Now I'm wearing them by choice! This particular pair are from the 70's and resemble a Vagabond style that I was lusting after. These were a much, much cheaper price though.

  2. Ah I love this post! I think I actually have the same rug as you in my bedroom. I also love velvet & paisley as a combo so this skirt's a winner!

    Try leave your nose as long as possible, mine took aaaages to heal. But I would recommend changing to a ring as soon as you can - I ripped my stud out so many times, once in the gym by a towel, then it went clattering down the drain :(

    A triumphant return to blogging <3
