Oh my god I have a cold!!
I was perfectly fine and healthy this morning; but as the day has gone on the sneezing has become more frequent to the point where it's running and I can't catch it!!
I actually can't remember the last time I had a cold which is good, but now I feel like its back for vengeance.
Doesn't help that I'm half dead and my lazy eye is slowly closing - I look like I've been dragged through a hedge backwards.
Anyway...
Just a quick post today!!
This was me earlier today after college.
I've now finished my second week at college and all I can remember from it is how tired I am. Doesn't help that I have the '3 week tests' next week and I feel like I haven't learnt anything - you can see my dilemma! I also have to read chapter 2 of 'Enduring Love' which I really don't like. If any of you haven't seen the film DON'T, it is the most weirdest film ever and apparently the book is completely different; but I can't help but compare it to the film (even if I am on chapter 2). But don't worry, college hasn't been just work, work, work in fact I've been socialising. I've even clicked with a girl in my class called Leah; it's so nice to meet someone who loves vintage as much as I do. I'm still working on other connections/friendships so you never know what will happen. I've also noticed that I've been dressing really girly lately (even in the two outfits I haven't shown here); maybe it's something to do with the rain brings out the inner girly girl in me. Which reminds me - OMG the rain on Tuesday was horrendous!! And it didn't help that I decided to wear pumps which turned from shoes to puddles. Wasn't fun!!
To the outfit...
I am channelling my inner Parisian in honour of Paris Fashion Week!!
Would I rather be in Paris - YES!!
I had this outfit in my head for a while in various variations, but all included this skirt and my lovely Alexy boots. I think with this Vero Moda skirt you have the option of dressing it up or dressing it down, a month ago I wore it in a casual/dressy way for drinks (here). I love how fairytale esque this skirt is with the netting, the slight puffiness and of course the length which makes it very ladylike. I think this is perfect teamed up with my old H&M top which let's face it I wear quite a lot, (I even used to wear it to bed months ago). Not only are the longer sleeves perfect for this weather, but the combination of the grey background with black stripes gives it the classic Breton style. I always imagined this outfit with these boots to really have the feminine element, plus it's a great excuse to keep practising in these (and its working).
I feel like death warmed up!!
I want to crawl in to the corner and be left alone by the world (I didn't want to say die).
Hopefully I'll feel better in the morning.
Fingers crossed...
