Heart of Gold

Is it just me or has this 'long' weekend gone by extremely quickly? Yesterday I went to watch The Avengers, and this is what I wore. I love the gold glitter heart on this grey Topshop vest, but it did shed quite a bit, and made me look like I had dandruff on my jacket sleeves. Not very attractive, let me tell you. I know it's a bit matchy-matchy, but I think the knuckleduster goes well with it.

I wasn't too sure about the necklace at first; I couldn't quite figure out whether the neon accents were too childlike. The multi-coloured ribbon reminds me of those necklaces you could get from fun fairs that have a flashing light up shape on the end. No, just me then? I think the spikes won me over.

Despite the rain I just can't bear to wear boots again. I hate wearing boots and only wear them in the winter because I hate being cold more. Okay so technically speaking these are boots, but they have a peep toe, which makes them acceptable to wear in spring weather.

Spikes and Things

I am in love with this necklace! I don't really wear much jewellery, but I will always wear a chunky necklace to bring an outfit together, or dress it up a little. This actually showed up on my Facebook news feed, on the Look magazine page, and as soon as I saw it I had to get it! New Look have got some lovely neck pieces in, and I've bagged a few lately. I'm not really into silver jewellery, I definitely wear more gold.


It comes in white/gold and black/gold, and although I was originally drawn by the black, I thought I'd go for the white as it was more summery, and it made a nice change. The gold spikes give the necklace a little bit of an edge, and lend it some drama.




I wore this out shopping today(any excuse really). I always like to be comfortable when going shopping, and keep my handbag as small as possible. Who wants to be hoarding the weight of the world on their shoulder as well as carting around all their purchases?! I fell over the other day *cringe* and sprained my ankle so my lovely friend went and got me these pumps so I could get home in one piece. I have become so clumsy lately and have developed a very embarrassing habit of falling over in public.
