Erm, I really don't know what's up with my arm in these photos...I guess all this strenuous essay-writing has left me needing to raise my arm above my head? Stretching...yes...
Anyway, hello! Today's outfit is a rarity for me as I'm dressing the way I did way back when I was at school (minus the leather jacket - I was not that cool at school) and the T-shirt is actually so ancient that the pattern has partly come off. But the unique thing that makes this outfit so curious is this...
Wearing: Next leather jacket, random-shop-in-Spain t-shirt, Miss Selfridge jeans via eBay.
JEANS. Yes, those are actual jeans! Not jeggings, not leggings, not tights...I have abandoned my usual uniform in favour of these lovely high-waisted jeans I got off eBay. They arrived today so I had to put them on...sadly due to my essay-over-eating they're a bit tight but they're the perfect length (I have stubby legs) and, well, they do up, and who needs to breathe, right? The best part is I got them for £9 plus postage whereas they retail for about £40 in the shop!
No-Foundation-February update: I can't lie, I can't WAIT for Tuesday so I can wear foundation again! It probably hasn't helped that I've been ill basically all of February and so my skin is super spotty but not wearing foundation hasn't really shown me any benefits! Instead I'm really playing up my other features (today I'm wearing Barry M Chocolate dazzle dust as an eyeliner to try and create a smoky eye) to detract attention from my spots, which I wouldn't have to do if I was wearing foundation... Bah.
Hope you're all doing well! Apparently it's good weather today... not in Canterbury, it's still rather gloomy! But if you're lucky enough to have sunshine then enjoy it!

@Sarah: haha perhaps I should make the arm waving my 'thing'? Like Zoolander's Blue Steel... xx
@Martha: aww thank you! Although having watched the Model Agency last week I just don't understand how people can look like a model or not, it's confusing! xx
@Maria: thank you so much :D :D haha I love when the word verification actually makes sense, had one earlier that said 'pronoun'! xx
@Danni: The TS ones are BEAUTIFUL though, I keep scouring ebay for some even though I have these and am basically broke! They're so soft, softer than these! xx
