collar c/o.

It's so friggan hot, like actual get ya legs out weather. I should be in a beer garden right about now, not doing uni work and probably not this either.

This is the collar I won last week. Snapped these in my garden, ventruing into the great outdoors.

Nar my hair isn't tied up, it is actually this short.  I was sick of failing to grow it long and luscious so I finally manned up and got the chop the other day. You wouldn't be blamed for mistaking me for a 12 year old boy.
Jumper: Chairty shop, Collar: C/o Crazy Pig Ideas, Super Skinny Equestrian Trousers: Topshop, Wedged Desert Boots: Dorothy Perkins, Ring and Bag: C/o my sister.
I need some summer appropriate clothing. I am roasting.

    Agreed! I am clueless when it comes to dressing for warmer weather.. give me boots, layers and cardis and I'm happy!

  7. :O your hair looks super nice! Definitely not boyish - you rock the pixie look so well, I wish I could, but I think my 6ft frame would somehow defeat the object :( x

  8. looove your hair. not 12 year old boyish at all (you should see me with short hair for that, not good). i made the fatal mistake of wearing black jeans today... bloody boiling. almost broke out in a sweat in silverlink it was that bad xx

  10. That collar is wicked.
    Good on you for getting the chop too, really suits you.
    Ive done the opposite, pretty much packed all my winter clothes away in the loft (wardrobe space idea and makes them smell funky and vintage when I dig them out) and only have summer gear. Will bite me on the ass in a week though, how long can it last?

  37. I always find it funny that i can be moaning there aren't enough cold-weather clothes in my wardrobe as people in the northern hemisphere can be doing the exact opposite.. i hate dressing for summer.. it's such an exhausting enterprise.. in aus it's all about denim cut offs and midriff baring singlets (eurrghhh).. i wish there were more options for hot weather!
