The Night Circus

For Christmas my sister bought me a book called The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, I really enjoyed it particularly because the imagery of the all black-and-white circus was described so vividly. The novel spans over a number of years and follows the magical (literally) lives of Celia Bowen and Marco Alisdair, among other equally magical characters who are a part of a fantastical, dreamlike, travelling circus. Not only was The Night Circus a good read, it also inspired this outfit:

If you're looking for a book to read and enjoy fairy tales then I would recommend  The Night Circus.

2012 almost...

We all have days when coming up for a name for a post is impossible

A few weeks ago I had my high school graduation, this is what I wore:

 I was sort of aiming for a 1920's flapper look...

Now that school is over I have just been enjoying the warm weather and holiday cheer by doing basically nothing except watching tv shows (Misfits check it out it's awesome!) and reading (Faust by Robert Nye). Hope you're all enjoying this time of year as much as I am!

Guess what! Guess rhymes with Little Black Dress!!!

Holidays aren't what they used to be. It is meant to be spring but it has been raining buckets all day long, my days are meant to be whiled away doing nothing, but instead I have to study for lousy exams. Woe is me, but being in my last year of high school (forever!) is not all bad, for this weekend I have the perfect excuse to shop and not just shop, but to absolutely splurge on a dress and all kinds of accessories and shoes because after exams it's GRADUATION!!! YAY!!! WOO HOO!!!

Anyway...these here photographs are of myself wearing a fancy black velvet dress that I've had for a while but haven't worn much. These photos were taken when I was bored one night and had nothing better to do (except homework) than put on red lipstick and play dress up.

I Wear A Leather Jacket (because I'm a tough bitch!)

Today I went to a university open day- you know to prepare for my future and all- and it kind of depressed me a little bit let's face it change is always a bit overwhelming (I'm totally deep, I know), but after the open day I went to Seafolly and bought new bathers. They are 1950s style blue gingham and they are super cute! I can't wait to wear them when the weather gets nicer.
However, until then I will continue to wear outfits such as this one:



It turns out that this maroon t-shirt was one of the best purchases ever, because I have been waring it constantly and it's surprisingly versatile.



The tights are ones that I love but don't wear often enough, so it was nice to wear them today.

AND....

.....my lovely new bathers!!!!! yay!!!

Call me a Fairy Princess

Yesterday I went to see the newest (and sadly the last) Harry Potter film for the second time, I loved it no less second time round!!! I didn't dress up, but I wore a flower garland in my hair which made me feel pretty special and pretty in general (ha ha ha). Anyway, bad humor aside, that's all I really got up to, I also bought a sheer black maxi dress from Sportsgirl which I love but most likely won't be wearing for a while until the weather warms up.
Also, the other week I got my nose pierced and this is the first I've posted since getting it done, I think it's really awesome and just wanted to let you know...

Rain Rain Something Something

Today is the last day of my winter holidays and I have to say it has been quite a cold and miserable winter, so every now and again I find myself fantasizing about the summer. I haven't posted in a while and figured that if I can't make it summer in the real world I can at least pretend it's summer on my blog, the following are some outfits I wore when the weather was a whole lot nicer.
