BEAUTYCON TOMORROW


If you follow me on social media, you may have heard that I won two pro tickets too Beautycon London tomorrow. I have been raking out my wardrobe to find the perfect outfit and today my new Motel Rocks palm leaf unitard came! I LOVE IT, I know it's not online anymore but Motel has a depop account on which they sell one offs for discounted price and this unitard brand new with tags only cost me £12 including signed postage! Amazing right?


Paired with my Primark fishnet socks and platform sliders (also Primark only £6 OMG) I think it would be a cute for beautycon! but I am the most unsure right now! 

I am excited for tomorrow, setting off at 5AM from Hull to get to London and I'm driving (god help me) and it's going to be such a long day. I will be posting about it all day on my Instagram if you want to follow on what i'll be doing. I have pro tickets therefore I will be doing meets and greets and getting goodiebags so if you're interested i'll be sharing it with you all! I will also be writing a blog post about my day probably on Sunday so if you want to keep up with the days events as they go, follow me on Instagram @annahodgson 


I am also debating on whether to wear my new septum ring only £3.79 from ebay! would love to know your opinions in the comments!

THE PEACH VINTAGE JEANS

I can't believe I haven't done a post about these jeans yet.. These are my favourite vintage jeans in a washed out orange colour, so washed out they're more of a peachy pink now! ]
I got them last year in a sale at a vintage shop called POORBOY BOUTIQUE which is a lovely vintage shop in Hull. My particular jeans were only £3! probably seems more astounding then it actually is as luckily Hull is one of the cheapest place to live in the UK.

Anyway back to the jeans.. who needs me blabbing on about where I live!
They're mom/slouchy jeans so they're as comfy as all hell and because they are preloved they are all broken in and snuggly! I know mom/slouchy jeans are not very flattering on some figures... LIKE MINE! but who cares I love a good pair of mom jeans!


I've paired my fabulous peach jeans with my new TOPSHOP body with star nips which I caught in the sale for £3 nothing like this ever fits me right because of my stupid oddly sized boobs which NOBODY wants if any one else has this problem.. I feel ya sista! and am always open to any help which makes it not as bad as it is so feel free to comment with any help! 
I also have put in my YRU platform shoes which are gorgeous too, I just haven't got the gist of walking around on anything but totally flat ground yet!



Hope you enjoyed reading my short post feel free to comment and share! x

OO and PS the necklace and the belt are also from topshop! <3

MARKET DAY! am I the bargain queen?

Walton Street Market Hull is a market near KC stadium in Hull which I have been going to since I was younger with my nan. I haven't been in years because of an incident with my nan when we went (she was almost pick pocketed) but decided to give it another go today and I was SO glad I did. 
I spent £20 in all and everyone knows how cheap Hull is for everything anyway but today topped the bill!

I firstly walked past a stall where a man was selling some AMAZING shoes, all £5!! the shoes included things by brands such as RocketDog, Steve Madden, Windsor Smith and JuJu and YRU!! As you know from other posts I LOVE my YRU platform sandals, and when I saw these in my size for only £5 each I had too they're to die for! How gorgeous are they!? I couldn't say no,  I will be going back next week to see if he has anymore bargains like that!



After being SO excited with this purchase I knew I was on a role so I had a good gander through all the sale rails!


More stuff I bought throughout my day at Walton Street Market was this green crochet halter neck dress only £1! ONE POUND! so I had too! I got many £1 specials as well today such as these amazing things...

                 

Pink and purple sparkly 90's vest... £1!!


Gold and orange/red halter neck top LOVE... £1!!



Pink and orange stripe crop top.... £1!!!



Hand painted Catrina Hull Artist tshirt, unsigned... £1!!! (BARGAIN)



Pink tie back and neck top only £1!!!! 

and finally...


this gorg 90's lilac snake print dress! amazing! only £1!!!

I also bought my mum a top that cost £2 so ALL that for only £20 I was astounded and can't wait to go back next week, so glad I got over my pick pocketing fear and get up and go to Walton Street Market!

I hope to see you all there next Wednesday 8-2! (bargain central)

Thanks for reading and if you have got any bargains recently please comment on what you've got I am ALWAYS happy to read about good bargains! #BARGAINQUEEN!

PSYCHODELIC

Ever been so excited for an online order to come that you find yourself checking the letter box at least twice a day? THATS ME! Well it's been me since last Thursday. I ordered this gorgeous thing from boohoo.com 

LINK TO CATSUIT

With free saver delivery may I add, boohoo.com are great for delivery deals! I ordered a size M as I usually am anywhere between a 8-12 and so this was a good middle ground. It fits me fab, I could have maybe gotten away with a S but I didn't want to push it but OMG I love it! It's so eye catching and vibrant which is great for the festival season and for anyone who wants to make a big SASSY statement this summer time!


I paired it with my adidas supercolour trainers to add to the total rush of colour the outfit gives off, along with my lilac hair (in miley buns of course) I think it would be the great festival outfit, all I was missing was a bindi and of course the glitter dust in hair and face! 


The back is nice and low which is fab but makes it unable to wear any bra, but who cares it's summer let it all hang out, everyone else seems too! good thing about this is catsuit is that even if you don't have the perfect body you can still wear it like everyone else because the amount of pattern hides some of the imperfections in a woman's figure, the high shine lycra material helps a lot too making things seem a little more streamlined!




Overall an amazing buy as it's only £15!! and I would recommend it to anyone! 

Thanks for reading and feel free to comment!

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!

BARGAINS OF THE DAY.. Fab new outfits

So today I took a trip to my favourite charity shops in Hull down Holderness Road and I found these beauties so amazing prices! 



This amazing purple cheerleader skirt! Goes fab with my little purple phase! 


A lovely Ivory/beige cotton boho dress which would be great for festivals, debating whether to dye it pink yet...


Both this missoni style crochet like dress and this iridescent blue mermaid crochet bag so lovely and rainbow like and as for the bag OMG i am in love with it. Almost may take over my viv.. Maybe..



And finally this amazing dusky pink tie up top, I am wearing back to front as it looks so much better! Also has a low back/front so paired with a AA crossover bra looks amazing!


And to top it off I got all these things for £5.50! So even if people think we charity shops, it's only like buying off eBay or depop but if you rummage you may just find some gems, also the turnover of clothing some charity shop is amazing I go to my favourite one at least twice a week!


Thank you for reading my small post on charity thrift shopping!
