BOHO VIBES

I was feeling very boho for todays post, so I thought i'd drag my flares out and a nice little plain top. These flares I got from TKMAXX in Braunschweig in Germany for about €5 but they do also sell them in our TKMAXX for £5-£7 which I think is a great price even if you only get 4-5 wears out of them. They're high waisted and SUPER comfy I could sleep every night in them! 

My top is from H&M and is just a casual basic cropped cami top, was about £3 last summer, it is a bit small for me now as i've put the most weight on but for photographs it did perfectly. I didn't really want a busy/patterned top as I have this gorgeous tassle sleeveless jacket thing which was only £3 from primark! (most of my wardrobe is as i work there!) The cream/white of the top contrasts with the black/grey of the bottoms which I really like and then to add a bit of colour I have my trust camden boho bag! 

Ever in need of summer items, Camden is my place to go. I JUST LOVE! I am taking a trip there this weekend so I will try and so a short post about my time there and where I visit/what I buy! As everyone knows I will come back with a train full! but back to the bag.. It's so hard wearing and can carry a tonne, i'm sure it was about £3.99 I've never had a problem with it and i've had it for years! 

I also have in these photos my favourite Topshop shoes which have been mentioned on a few posts now if you want to read more about them and how I wear them day-to-day! 

PEACE XO

I've been loving my flares since last summer when I got the amazing Forever 21 black floral bells last summer but as they were just too big for me I had to sell and even though these flares are nothing on my last years ones I am still in love! They were only £6 or something stupid like that from boohoo.com it was a right bargain! As flares are a big thing this summer I thought I'd do another post that has them in, even though I did one earlier this year if you wanted to read more about them further down my blog!  

The crochet top was a very good bargain (at the time as it doesn't really fit me and now is on my depop) it ties at the back and it halter-neck it's so pretty on but just doesn't suit me and is a bit small for me! But at the time couldn't resist! It was from a small vintage/boutique shop from Princes Quay in Hull (also came in camel and pink and camel and mint which were both lush too but I could only afford one :( [SAD LIFE OF A STUDENT] so if you want to buy this amazingly gorgeous top that doesn't fit me then head to my depop (annahodgson) and feel free to buy! :D

The main part of this blog post is this AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS black leather fringed biker jacket! It's my mums and she got it in 1988/89 and it's been all over on the back of my dad's motorbike, all over the UK and Germany too! (It's lasted longer than my dads motorbike!) I thought it complimented this outfit quite well especially when brands and shops at the moments are creating replicas of such jackets for this seasons fashion, having a real one from the 80's really is a lot better because not only does it have history thats older than me but when it's your favourite person on this earths jacket it really means something to you and makes you love it a lot more! 

Finally my boots! I love them! Kurt Geiger block heeled boots, they're not the comfiest things ever but, who cares! they look good. These photos don't do them justice at all but I swear they are SO amazing! They should be, they cost enough! I wish I got to wear them more but after 2 hours my feet feel like they want to give up and go home without me and they aren't even high, like at all. how odd.

but I love them all the same!

Thank you for reading my blog and hope you like this styling

Outfit of the day, handmade clothing all the way!

As I study fashion (even though now its fashion comms but it was design) I thought i'd put my trade to good use. I've been looking into buying some flares in velvet but people were selling for £30 and at the moment I just couldn't afford it. A jobless fashion shopping addicted student is not the best thing to be when you have more time on your hands than a watch. An impulse buy at my local haberdashery shop (BOYES) of 3M of dark purple crushed velvet fabric sparked up my brain as to creating my OWN flares!

After tracing my other flares to make a quick pattern I was on my way! How astounded was I when they came out as good as they did is unreal. (in my opinion nothing I do comes out as good as I thought) 

With the amount of time I have on my hands at the moment as well I decided to make two matching tops..TWO! 

I made both a point up halter-neck tie back and a elasticated boob-tube (both beginner garments I know but simple but effective is the way forward) 

I am thinking of making these sets for sale and selling them on my DEPOP account (USERNAME: annahodgson) I am just trying to perfect the pattern. 

I am very happy with my garment creations today I will be making more soon and putting them on my blog too! 

Thanks for reading dolls!

Tassels & Flares! Item of the week!

hey guys thought I'd do a little post about an item of clothing I've just recently bought to try a different style of blogging, if it works and I carry on doing this style I assure you the photographs will be better than this as its my first go.

So H&M have released a small range for/by Florrie who is an up and coming musician who is actually really good and they have brought out a black body-con dress with long sleeves and tassels, it looks amazing and the best thing is its only £7.99. Unfortunately it's sold out online but it's still possible there is some in store. One thing I will say though, similar to the rest of H&M clothing the sizing is small, i'd say up to 1 size smaller really as I had to get a 12 and I usually take a 10. the tassels though are a great idea because they don't go too far up the arm so it's not all bunchy!

This is the dress as you see its like gorg on Florrie! I just wanted to show that it was a great buy as it doesn't just work as a dress but a top too for this seasons flares trend! As I say it's the first time I've done photos of myself in an outfit but I thought I may as well because ATM i'm in the middle of loosing weight so they can't get any worse I suppose! But I really did like this dress and I also thought it went so well with the thigh high boots and for the price it's an unmissable bargain! 

Hair: BLEACH LONDON

Eyes: SUGARPILL - CANDYCRUSH

Lips: BELISSIMO GLITTER LIPS

Dress: H&M FLORRIE TASSEL DRESS

Trousers: SNAKESKIN FLARE TROUSERS - BOOHOO

Boots: THIGH HIGH BOOTS - EBAY CHINA 

So I hope you like my little post about what I could call my item of the week, I just wanted to share my love for this dress as it's amazing! So if you want my to try anything else and write about I can do just email me, thanks for reading!
