every now and then i fall apart.

this is going to be another image-heavy post, i've got way too much i want to post.

my asos dress arrived :) i didn't actually notice the beaded part on the side when buying the dress but i actually like it quite a lot.

what i wore today.

Jaeger grey cardigan

ASOS nude slip dress & strapping tights

American Apparel black u-neck short sleeved dress

Converse black sneakers

this is from toby jones's lonely hearts club collection - i fell in love with it after seeing his work on Kingdom of Style. more of his work can be found at his site.

pauline van dongen shoes; she's a designer from the netherlands. love love love.

sarah brannon's chelsea rebelle collection. love the fabrics, and the whole collection's generally aesthetically pleasing.

brian atwood's harrison. that chain detail is incredible.

FINALLY.

ASOS Velvet Embellished Bandeau Dress-----------------------------ASOS Strapping Tights


ASOS Two Tone Sheer Star & Opaque Tights------------ASOS Spot And Line Sheer Tights



ASOS Chevron Knitted Tights, Burgundy---------------------GIPSY Back Seam Rose Hold Ups

my cheques came through so now i've got me some free-flowing cash. i promptly got onto asos and bought the contents of my shopping bag, which i've been lusting after for at least a week now. five various pairs of tights and a velvet dress, which i've been meaning to buy. back to college today, but it was actually nice. study plus is helpful for revision, as there are neither beds nor televisions...

2635% APR!

aha, terence.

it's snowing :)

just a quick shot out of the living room window. i love snow :) hopefully this year there'll be a white christmas.



shoes that i just ordered from asos. i'm cheap so they're not going to arrive until after christmas, but i don't mind. i'm attracted to wedge heels more than stilettos, etc. i never have to worry about getting stuck in grates, and i'm less likely to fall in the snow and break my neck. and die.

i'm so jolly.



i wanted these - i tried them on in selfridges when i was with george - but unfortunately they are a) out of my price range even on sale b) preposterously high c) cursed with thin heels. knowing my luck i'll snap a heel and i cannot afford to snap the heel of these shoes. so they shall remain unbought. even though they are beautifullll.

these feelings don't go awayyy

everything i ordered from asos has turned up :) photos will arrive later, i'm curled up in bed and i can't get out to dress up. i did ombre nails earlier. tried out a different colour on each nail, and then clear base on one hand, white base on the other. \



this is with clear base, i couldn't get a decent picture of the other hand. i'm going to wear them for a few days to decided which i like. other things that are new; the bump on the back of my helix is back, my dad is sending me some money, and i've realized that i'm actually quite happy at the moment. college is good, i've been keeping up and grades are good. my weight is fluctuating as usual, but i've lost 2kg since june. not that impressive, seeing as i need to lose another 15, which at this rate would take me a year, but nonetheless an achievement. feeling like things are falling into place. UCAS is all sorted, and soon i can be somewhere else. someone else, perhaps.

watching aladdin and in that mellow sort of mood where thinking about the future doesn't scare me. i mean, i'm thinking of several futures and they all seem like they'd end well for me. even though i like to hang on to a couple of never-going-to-happen events. just in case. hope is the thing with feathers, that perches in the soul, and sings the tune - without the words, and never stops at all <3

ASOS!

my outfit from the other day which i can't upload to lookbook, as it's being a wank.
the top's from hong kong. i was going to get it altered tighter but i figured that belting would be a better idea. it has zips on the shoulders, which i'm not sure i like.

my order finally arrived, so i'm in a rather good mood :)



Jonathan Aston Mock Suspender Tights

i loooove these, i saw them on lookbook and loved them.



Lace Trim Pointelle Slip Dress in Nude

this is super super soft and it's going to be part of my halloween costume.



Boudoir Lace Longline Bra in Coral

the sad thing about this is that there aren't matching pants :(



Seam Detail Maxi Skirt

i ordered this a couple of days ago so it should arrive soon - i need a maxi skirt, although for now wearing my dress as a skirt will do.

i also got a couple of comics from neil gaiman's sandman collection; dream country, a game of you and brief lives.

THINGS I NEED TO BAIII

the black/grey/bone ones are beautiful. ohhh they're so pretty.





okay fair enough i will look chunkymonkeyyy in both of these but they're so pretty.

also, i fail at resisting food. ugh, i'm so disgusting. trying to focus on chemistry work. and personal statement writing. and various other bullshit.
