Scruffy

Hey!
I felt so scruffy today, but I always feel scruffy in really flat shoes anyway!


I wore my Luella cardigan today (it doesn't go with as much of my wardrobe as I thought it would!) with my ancient H&M dress, ill-fitting Primark tights, Dorothy Perkins flats, a belt from this really cheap shop near my flat and a chain I got in a charity shop.
I woke up early on Monday, thinking my lecture (the first of the new year!) was at 11, but it wasn't until 2! What a bimbo I am sometimes...
I wore my Topshop dress again, this tiem with a brown t-shirt from River Island which I've had for ages and a belt from ebay. The socks are H&M and the tights are from Marks and Spencer (I'd recommend their tights, even 60 or 80 denier are really opaque!) and the boots, from Topshop, which I have had for about a million years!

I actually really dislike these boots and don't wear them often at all, I think it's because they look a bit like Uggs! Though I must admit, they look quite nice with this coat and they kept my feet really warm and dry, despite today's simultaneous snow and rain!



I am in love with these Aldo shoes, which Rumi of Fashion Toast has, but they seem to only be available on the US site, anyone know why this is? I'm seriously considering getting them when payday arrives, even though they're probably expensive ($125 on the US site...) and I never buy expensive shoes!
Oh and a little reminder, you can follow our blog with bloglovin'!

I really love your Luella cardigan. It looks so good on you.
And those shoes are quite awesome also. There seems to be quite a lot of studded heels coming onto the market though, even here in Australia, and we seem to always be behind. So I'm sure if you don't get those particular ones, you will come across others =)

I love your Luella cardi,
and you never ever look scruffy!

I get most of my jewellery making stuff on ebay,
though I re-discovered an amazing craft shop in Bristol today and spent over half an hour in there choosing things and talking to the owner!

I think the Luella cardigan looks fabulous. I'm really jealous of you that you actually own a Luella cardigan :) Oh, and the Topshop dress is nice.

Thanks for the tip about looking for clock necklaces on ebay. I wonder why I never thought of that!
