LA VIBES AT BRANDY MELVILLE


 Topshop Joni Jeans//Brandy Melville T//Aldo Sunglasses//Converse High Tops

Had another mooch about the shops in Vancouver on Tuesday and my cousin took me to this cute little store called Brandy Melville, I say little but apparently not- a quick glance at the Instagram and 90,000+ Facebook likes tells me this store is a pretty big deal this side of the pond. Have any of my British followers heard of it before? Anyway, its pretty cool and I fell in love with all of their super soft slogan tees. I decided to treat myself to the top above as it was only $18. Now I know what you're thinking, 'why the fuck did she buy it in baby size??' well no actually a lot of the tees come in one size only which I guess says a lot about the customer demographic (young/skinny?) I'm off to Vegas next week for a few days and thought this would look cool over a bikini, but for the sake of an outfit post I tried it on with my high waisted Joni jeans from Topshop and it just about borderlines appropriate for a 25 year old.

OBSESSIONS

necklace: H&M 
shorts: Primark//bag:Alexander Wang//tee:Topshop//trainers:River Island
top to bottom:ASOS//Ebay//H&M//ASOS
vest & shoes:Zara//shorts:Urban Outfitters//bag:H&M

Since outfit posts have kind of had to go out the window for the moment (I'm too preoccupied trying to sort my life out to dress decently) I'll have to bore you with this nonsense... So I'm a little bit besotted with this whole outfit grid thing. I love the instagram @outfitgrid, its all menswear which I'm obsessed with because they have the BEST accessories. But I think the girls oughta play too, so that's what I'm attempting here. Its also a great way to put outfits together, so when the weather turns nice and I'm ready to get out of my sweatpants/slippers/jeans/trainers rotation I shall be wearing both these get ups. 

I also wanted to show you my new neck candy! I'm back on statement necklaces since they are a great way to dress up a boring outfit e.g- tshirts and jeans (my staples!) The ID chain from Ebay, which is the closest to the Celine version can be found by searching 'chunky ID chain' which will bring up tonnes of tasty results to choose from. Mine is actually plastic which I was kinda pissed about when it arrived but it means it won't tarnish.

PRINT


Sorry about the bad quality (its a scan) I was lucky enough to be featured in the street style pages of British ELLE this month and my super excited mother scanned it in and emailed it over to me so I thought I would share it with you guys. It was suppose to be sports wear influenced so I wore my trusty New Balance 620's and Wood Wood jersey, they teamed them with these amazing orange MiH jeans and some cool accessories that I would never pick out for myself but overall I really like the look!

LATE OFF THE MARK



Trousers: Primark// Top: Victorias Secret// Jacket: Topshop// Trainers: River Island

Well hello there from sunny Vancouver, I guess this is my first post since moving across the pond but its a bit of a cheat because I took these in the UK for an outfit post but never got round to putting them up, so here is how I styled those bargain sport-luxe style trousers I posted about a few weeks ago, I love that old sports jersey style number tops are everywhere right now they are perfect for throwing on and so comfortable.

Anyyyway, I arrived halfway round the world about two weeks ago (hence why my blog has been so quiet) I spent a week in Canada's capital- Ottawa and took a short trip to Montreal then came to Vancouver last sunday. I'm starting to settle in now so stay tuned in for upcoming posts and thanks for still following and supporting my blog folks!
