Summer isn't my Season

Wednesday 1 June 2016


I spend my life online looking at clothes I want and can’t afford, so i’ve thrown together this small outfit of items i’m in love with at the moment. I’ve had such an issue with leggings lately after my beloved American Apparel pair gained an ever growing hole on the back of the calf (probably from where i’ve rushed to pull them on and put my toe through them). I bought a couple of Baziic leggings but the stitching all up the bum has just gone into holes and disintegrated, i promise this is not my doing. I was so sad. I found a pair of ‘double layered’ leggings from Boom Boom the label that i’m currently pining for. They are handmade in England and at a price that makes me hope they’ll last me a good while. Basically a lot of things off their website I now want. All the colours are perfect. I’m tempted to sell my entire wardrobe and just buy one of everything they sell.

The outfit is based around a Bardot top I bought for like, £6 for an insect themed party I went to (don’t ask) and I wore it with a pair of American Apparel disco pants. Now i’m looking for another way to continue wearing it because it’s SO COMFY (without a bra it’s just fab). 

The fedora I tried on in All Saints and fell in love.

A leather Grafea backpack with a pom pom is my idea of heaven.

My friend back in Edinburgh has these Adidas trainers and they are so cute in person. A sort of off white / beige / cream colour. 


I remember reading about The Design Studio bomber jackets agessssss ago. I’ve never really been into faux fur or really any kind of fur on clothing as I find the texture a bit weird. However, these jackets are stunning. I’m crazy about the ‘Eryl’ jacket and think it’s the perfect piece for a cool summer night in the city with a crop top underneath, cocktail in hand.
