True Blue
















































































blazer: charity shop, boots: new look, shorts: champagne diamond, shirt: the dandelion, belt: h&m


Roped my little sister into taking my photos again this weekend bless her, she's getting good at it aha. It was so funny, I hadn't seen her that morning yet and when I went downstairs we were both wearing denim shorts with lace trimming and blue shirts. Her shirt had the shoulders cut out too- so yes it's official, not only do me and my 11 year old sister have a similar wardrobe... she's actually cooler than me. 

My beautiful levis came from the lovely Lucy at Champagne Diamond, I won these through her competition on tumblr along with the earring I'm wearing. They are amazing. They fit perfectly which is rare for levis you've tried on beforehand, let alone ones you haven't; the lace trim she's sewn on has gorgeous flower detailing which make them perfect for summer too. She sells these for £20 which I think is ridiculously cheap as it can be hard to find plain levis on eBay for less... I'm so tempted to buy her cat print ones but I officially own too many shorts- 6 of which are levis. Is a 7th pair a little too much?

Tried my hand at popping some collar tips on my shirt and I've done a ridiculously bad job, the ones I bought from eBay are at a right angle which means a normal shirt collar doesn't actually fit. I managed to get them on by folding over the corners but it doesn't look brilliant. Do all collar tips fit like this? 

Apologies for being a bad blogger of late, life appears to be taking over a little. & I am still without a phone which is driving me insaneeee but I should be shiny new iPhone tomorrow- yay.
