So I bought this headband from Topshop as I thought it would make my hair look better when it's middle-parted (if i middle-part my hair, I usually end up looking like a noob. Me no like.) I think it's awesome, and it kinda makes me look like a hippie and/or Cleopatra... But I like it. I'd like to curl my hair or something and see what it looks like...
So I went shopping, like I said in my previous post, and here are my purchases:
I went to South Bank here in London with my friends Helena and Alice yesterday (names changed for random purposes) and we had such a nice day. We wandered down the bank of the Thames, had lunch at Giraffe (I had a full english breakfast... yes, for lunch. It was nommy.), then debated going on the London Eye or going on a boat ride. Since they both took an hour to do, we decided instead to go to Covent Garden for some shopping - can't go wrong with shopping!
We went to H&M and Urban Outfitters - I got some nice things at Henny's (I'm saving any Urban Outfitters expenditure for today when I'm going shopping AGAIN with my friends, as I have a voucher from mah bday :D). Here are my buys:
Us being silly in UO - most awesome sunglasses ever though. |
After my day with my mum, which I talk about in my last post, I then went to Jay-Z and Kanye West's Watch The Throne Tour and I'm going to say this: DAT. SHIT. CRAY.
It was so amazingly mind-blowing and insane and GAH, can't even describe. Jay-Z has the most swag I have ever seen on a person. Period. Even more than JBiebs. (hahaha had to slip that in there ;P)
The bass BOOMED and all the audio from what I filmed on my Olympus camera went all fuzzy because it couldn't compute the swag. Srsly.
So I went out shopping again, because I had some left over birthday monays, and bought some new nice things. :) The title is 'Luxurious' because I watched a clothesencounters video (if you don't know what that is, I direct you to this post) and Jen described her flowy white blouse as 'luxurious' so I thought it fit as the shirt I bought fits that description well.
The shirt is a white blouse that has a long asymmetrical draping back, with a racer back cutout - I love it so much. And the shorts are black sequined, and are tiny, for going out and wanting that extra little wow factor.
I love Zara. If I had more monays, I would buy out that shop. Srsly. I was in the airport a few weeks ago, on my way to America, and there was a Zara there that was much cheaper than normal due to the duty free-ness of airports - OH THE JOY. I bought this dress that I am IN LOVE with and I think I may wear it to this family and friends dinner thing this saturday. I'm excited.
OMG OMG OMG don't know how I've only just discovered this, but Jen Im? I WANT TO BE YOU. *breathe* Okay, so now that I've calmed down minutely, I shall explain. A friend asked me if I watched Clothes Encounters on YouTube, to which my response was a confused 'no.' She then proceeded to say that I 'NEEDED to watch' these videos since I was (apparently) 'so similar' to this girl, so which I replied a slightly wary 'okay...'
I went home, merrily typed in 'clothes encounters' in the search bar, clicked on a video, and proceeded to despair as I could never EVER be as cool and stylish as the girl I found. Jen Im? Now, one of my key my fashion role models. Srsly.
Her style is INSANE and AWESOME and GAH I can't even describe....
She used to do Clothes Encounters with a girl called Sarah Chu, but then Jen moved away and so she flies solo now, though Sarah is sorely missed. :)
Jen has some awesome styling tips, and all her clothes are gorgeous - though if ya ask me, she'd look good in anything, including a trash bag... :P
Here are some cool-ass images:
So I recently went shopping with mah friend, whom I shall call Bea, and we went to the trusty ol' Urban Outfitters, a.k.a. my home away from home, and I gots myself some nice things:
I'm in love with this girl, AND her style. I first loved her in the film Kick Ass, also starring the yummy Aaron Johnson, and I recently saw her in Dark Shadows, with the ever-awesome Johnny Depp, which I also loved her in, even though the film as a whole didn't actually do much for me (but hey, just mah opinion). Check this girl out if ya don't know her - she's awesome - she seems like she would be an awesome friend as well!
