Mermaid Vibin & DIY Denim!!!

A couple of posts ago I blogged my denim jacket that I diy'ed, when I did the jacket I also diy'ed some jeans. I actually meant to blog this outfit ages ago but totally forgot about it, so it's quite a summery look, but I'm not about those winter vibes anyway! I got these vintage jeans from a charity ages ago and hadn't worn them in a while, so I decided I'd freshen them up with some fun patches. I added a few rainbow patches and some assorted sequin patches including an amazing mermaid one! I sewed some rainbow sequin trim on the pockets at the front and back and double rainbows on the bum. The patches didn't seem to stick down that well when I ironed them on so I had to hand sew them too, it did take a while but I think it's worth the work! You can literally diy patch anything and there's so many cool patches around at the moment, I definitely want to try and do some more items. It's a easy and fairly cheap way to update something and make it feel like something totally different and new!


I teamed it with a basic crop top and the cutest little shrug I got from the Thrift shop in Manchester for about £4. It has a mermaid/chain print and I absolutely adore the colours, adding to the mermaid vibe I wore this cute shell necklace and my holographic shell bag. Finished off with some tiny pearl studs, fishnet socks and some turquoise flatform sandals.

Minnie Mouse Vibes!!!

So as soon as Halloween was over Christmas is already being shoved down our throats, I'm really not a festive person but I swear it gets earlier every year, and then it's gone in a flash! Christmas aside these winter months do bring the icy cold weather with them, which I am certainly not a fan of. But I've still got a couple of outfits to blog from when it wasn't quite so cold, today's being one of them. I'm a massive charity shop shopper and have got alot of my wardrobe from them, including this fabulous vintage shirt! Totally getting Minnie Mouse vibes from this cute polka dot blouse with ruffle front detail and it was only a few pounds. I teamed it with this pu leather fringe detail skirt that I got in the sale for a 5er from H&M! I wore my fave patent boots from last winter which are still going strong and a suede teardrop bag. As the shirt has got a huge ruffle front and there's fringing on the skirt I kept accessories minimal with some chunky gold earrings and finishing off with a cute scrunchie with bow/ear effect adding to the Minnie Mouse vibe!

Rainbows & Diy Denim!!!

Again I've been pretty rubbish at blogging recently and have another summery outfit I've only just got round to blogging for this post. It may be freezing outside now but I miss my summer wardrobe so I'm gonna post it anyway! In the summer I got this fab rainbow striped bandeau dress from Pretty Little Thing, and for £6 it was an absolute steal. It's great cause it's a nice stretchy jersey and it can easily be dressed up or down. I went for a more casual look and teamed it with my diy denim jacket. I got the vintage denim jacket at a vintage weigh and pay and got loads of sequin patches to put on, they are supposed to just iron on but they weren't very secure so I had to hand sew them all, which  did end up taking a while, but totally worth it! I want to add more patches as I find good ones but this is it for now. I wore my holographic platform sandals and some glittery purple socks and the most amazing Barbie bag which is very Moschino Barbie! To finish off the look I went pompom crazy with accessories with a pompom necklace, earrings and headband, girl loves a pompom!!
