OOTD: Queen of the Gas Station

26 February, 2012

Crotchet Top: Topshop Sale, £12. Tie Dye, Velvet Leggings: Urban Outfitters Sale, £11. Gold Doc Marten's: An old friend, £30. Sunglasses: Primarni, 50 pence!


There's something about sunglasses that just make you instantly look about 100 x better, which could possibly down to the fact they cover about 30% of my face. Thankfully the weather is making it acceptable for me to wear them again! I bought these glasses at some point last year and because they were so cheap I picked them up in pink too! They may not exactly be the best pair of sunglasses in the world, but for Primark's standards they are pretty acceptable! Plus, my knock-off Ray Ban's are on their death bed. I really want to invest in a real pair, but I can never bring myself to part with that much money for one pair of sunglasses.

I've had these Doc Marten's about 5 years now and I only paid £30 for them at the time from an old friend. I think these beauties triggered the start of my love for gold clothing & shoes. I'm in love with my new bright lipstick too, it's Topshop's "All About Me" and is the perfect shade of pink. I'm no make-up expert, but I will admit though after around 3 hours of wearing it my lips were completely dried out. I'll suffer it thought because the colour is beautiful.

I'm so happy the sun is shining! This time of year usually sees my transformation from a dirty grunger to hippie child. Expect lots of crotchet, feather braids, tie dye, crop tops, headbands, maxis and patterned trousers!
