BURKATRON

hello rascals! spring seems to have arrived; I can't believe how bright the evenings are this week, hurrah! I think it's high time for an outfit post since I've been slacking over the weekend. you'll have to excuse the messy 'do I've been suffering from a serious case of the girl flu! bed head has been my go-to hairstyle of choice for the last few days (I'm not quite ready to part with my pineapple just yet!)  I've been dying to wear this  warehouse  skater dress since it arrived! since there's still a chill in the air I decided to layer it up with this shirt I found in primark last week; I love the cut out and scalloped detailing on the collar! I've become a acid wash fan girl so this dress ticks a few boxes for me; I was worried it wouldn't fit after all the junk food I've consumed in the last fortnight but it's one of those miracle dresses that pulls you in in all the right places.. phew!  denim acid wash skater dress:   warehouse ...

cold days call for comfort! that's exactly what I had whilst I was away, so my go-to uniform consisted of layers (in fact so many layers that I began to resemble an onion!) I do love my h&m boyfriend jeans; it's definitely a style that seems to divide opinions between me and my friends! personally however I'm a fan of the slightly odd looser shape especially when worn with heels (for a day trekking around galleries I chose to wear mine with my well worn flat boots and simple breton tee!)  the slightly over sized bubble coat was an impulse buy from primark and the hat was a topman sale find!  hat: topman breton stripe tee: river island similar  here navy coat: primark boyfriend low jeans:  h&m belt & necklaces: urban outfitters boots: vintage after an early morning coffee we headed to uptown to the museum of modern art and the guggenheim to get our culture on! the guggenheim was the highlight for me because of the amazing architecture; I've never been insi...

I'm not sure whats happened but I seem to have put together a rather smart ensemble? that doesn't happen too often (my mum will be so proud!)  since I'm saving up for my big apple trip next month I'm on a ridiculously tight budget! I've been pulling out my old clothes and putting together outfits I'd clean forgotten about, it's been quite fun actually and definitely helped taking the edge of my shopping withdrawals thus far! one of my few buys this month has been this cowgirl shirt, I saw a few of them online in the autumn but they have appeared back with a vengeance so I decided to finally embrace my inner cowboy! I'd been harbouring a huge crush on one I'd seen on the dahlia website but I spotted this primark version for a fraction of the price yeeeee haaaaa! (it also comes in cream & navy which some of you may prefer)  I think a embroidered or fringed shirt is the easiest way to incorporate the western trend into your wardrobe, I'm plannin...

I can't seem to shake my current love of stripes! I picked up this dress in primark last summer and it's one of my most worn dresses because it's so comfortable and easy to wear (nothing beats a good ol' jersey fabric in my book!) I was so excited when my parka from the lovely people at mee mee  arrived this week, it fits like a dream! I've been harbouring a crush on two tone jackets and have been umm-ing and ahh-ing about getting one for months! I swiftly bookmarked their website as it has a great selection of vintage items too (hurrah!) perfect for a high street/vintage kinda girl. my latest favourite purchase is my topshop rucksack! my bank balance heaved a sigh of relief as I was able to buy  it with some gift vouchers I was given at christmas.. phew thanks mom! I'm slightly addicted to rucksacks; I adore the casual look and they suit me perfectly (..I can fill them up with all my clutter aha!)  contrast sleeve parka: c/o  mee mee dress: primark hair bow: gi...
