I totally forgot to post these images! I took them ages ago and thought I'd posted them. I really love this outfit, if it wasn't so cold and I wasn't so pale though, I'd love to wear it with bare legs. The winter has really brought out my pale skin, but I've been fortunate enough to be sent a <a href="http://www.very.co.uk/st-tropez/e/b/5725.end" target="_blank">St Tropez</a> kit!<br />

<br />
I can't wait to try it! I've never tried <a href="http://www.very.co.uk/st-tropez/e/b/5725.end">St. Tropez</a> before but I've heard all of the good reviews so I'm really looking forward to it; I have a lace cream leotard I always want to wear but look far too pale in, so I'll probably feature that in my next post!<br />
<br />
These high necklines are everywhere at the moment, and I just love them. I like to balance the look out with a short skirt usually, but I like this longer skirt with is because it's quite short on one side. I've been wearing this a lot lately, paired with some creepers I picked up in Primark for £12 (and they're identical to the ones in New Look for £25! I did the compare!) I'm off to do dissertation work now, but I'll hopefully have a post up later in the week!daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-18815340849071505942013-01-27T18:47:00.000+00:002013-01-27T18:49:04.846+00:00I'm lost in sleep<center>

Old pictures I forgot to post! I love this Motel body. Most of the clothes I wear at the moment are Motel, I picked up a few sale pieces and was treated to a few bits for my birthday. These Hillary bodies are perfect to dress up or down; I wear mine with shorts, maxi skirts, midi's and minis! They go with literally anything and everything, and when you can pick them up in the sale for £12 you can't afford not to! <br />
<br />
You can't really tell in the photos but I'm wearing a fossil necklace. As a child I loved rocks and fossils, I wanted to be a geologist! This fossil is an Orthoceras, 400million years old and one of the earliest recognised animals! I've had it for a couple of years now but completely forgot I had it; I think it's beautiful and can't believe it's so old! I have a few more pieces which have fossils in, I'll get round to wearing them on the blog soon :)<br />

Oh my god, I can't believe my commitment so showing off my aztec dress! You totally can't see it under my fur coat, so I had to brave the freezing weather! About 10minutes after taking these yesterday, it started snowing, and now my car is buried to the top of it's tyres in snow! I'm meant to be delivering Dominos pizza tonight, I'm pretty scared.<br />
<br />
The lovely <a href="https://twitter.com/ElChetcuti">El</a> from <a href="http://www.meemee.com/">MeeMee</a> sent me <a href="http://www.meemee.com/aztec-print-zip-dress.html">this gorgeous dress</a> a couple of months ago, but due to a lack of camera I've had a hard time blogging. I think that's why I look so miserable in the first picture; it's been SO long since I did blog photos I've forgotten what to do! Cue awkward face. I love the print on this dress, and I don't think I've ever owned a dress is this colour and I really love the change! It's got a zip down the front too. I've been wearing it with a sheer black vest over it, or tucked into my studded leather skater skirt, but today I decided to keep it simple so that you guys could see it properly. It's only £16 as well, and today MeeMee have 20% off using the code FACEBOOKLOVE20 so treat yourself on this horrible snow day!<br />
<br />
I've finished my exams and I'm about to start my final semester at uni. As much as I can't wait for the stresses of deadlines to be over, I don't ever want to leave! I think a Masters may be in the pipeline...Hope you enjoy the snow, I'm going to stay as far away from it as possible!

Crazy sunny day! Regretted not putting my sunnies on. Here's my gorgeous new motel dress! I absolutely love this style with the deep cut arms and high neck, it's so 90s! And I managed to pick it up in the sale for £18 :)! The purple version is sold out now unfortunately but you can get the blue version<a href="http://www.motelrocks.com/shop/products/Motel-Zena-Bodycon-Mini-Dress-in-Gothic-Placement-Print.html"> here</a> for £35. I love wearing this on its own or with a sheer vest over the top, or with my staple black skater skirt, and with my standard dark lip. I've unintentionally lost a stone and a half recently and I feel much more comfortable wearing bodycon, so I've been stocking up on a few motel dresses. This one is my favourite, but I also bought <a href="http://www.jujubrighton.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/z/e/zena_dress_blackandwhite_front.jpeg">this one</a> (which is also no longer available online), and I've got my eye on <a href="http://www.motelrocks.com/shop/products/Motel-Zabby-Sleeveless-Turtleneck-Dress-in-Black-Batik-Tie-Dye.html">this gorgeous zabby one</a>. I tried to buy it today but it was out of stock in my size, boo! I actually got an invite from the lovely Selina at Motel to their Motel event in just over a week! I'm going with my sister and I'm really excited! Let me know if you're going :)

Say hello to my cat Bubble :)! She's such an affectionate cat, so when I'm outside taking photos she just wont leave me alone, my sister spends the whole time shouting 'bubble' so she goes to her instead ha! But I guess blogging and cats go hand in hand so I popped a picture of her in here.<br />
<br />
I should have got a picture of my top without the coat on but it was soooo cold I didn't even think about taking the jacket off, but you totally can't see the leopard print cross. It's that top that every blogger had last year I think, but I still love throwing it on. Managed to pick up the leather panelled skirt for a fiver recently, couldn't even believe it! Such a bargain.<br />
<br />
Just a quick one today because I have a full day of uni followed by work (I'm a Dominos delivery driver, very glamorous!) Let me know if you're going to the Motel christmas party! I've fallen out of the twitter loop and don't really know where to begin with all the x factor tweets that mean nothing to me :/ Have a lovely day guys :) xdaisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-17322911113337723652012-10-31T08:44:00.000+00:002012-10-31T08:48:36.889+00:00don't talk to strangers. <center>

I'm just not destined to be a regular blogger am I? I'd love to blog more often, I really miss not only posting, but reading everyone's blogs, finding that new source of inspiration that makes me mix up my wardrobe! The only reason I haven't been able to keep up my regular posts is because I struggle to feel comfortable in front of a camera unless certain people are behind it - these are taken by my lovely twin sister.<br />
<br />
I have been wearing <a href="http://www.frenchconnection.com/product/Woman+Collections+Coats+And+Jackets/75JD7/Athena+Jacket.htm" target="_blank">this jacket</a> every day pretty much since French Connection gifted it to me. Now please excuse me while I gush because I just adore it - and not because it was gifted. I'd actually been eyeing up this jacket to buy for myself when I received the email asking me if I'd like to choose an item - I'm not the kind of blogger that would ever lose their integrity for a free gift! I will always be honest. Back to the jacket! It's not real leather, but I honestly could never tell until I read it on the website. It is just the perfect biker jacket don't you think? It has quilted shoulder and quilted elbow patches, and is the perfect length to throw on over dresses or over a hoodie and leggings to uni in the freezing cold Staffordshire weather! I've been wearing it daily for over three months now too and it's still in perfect condition with no rips in the lining or anything (don't you find that happens with EVERY leather jacket? Drives me mad) so I can say wholeheartedly that it is excellent quality too! It is literally the perfect biker and I am so happy with it and grateful to French Connection for giving it to me :)<br />
<br />
I picked up this top<a href="http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=1&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=4930729&langId=-1&sort_field=Price%20Ascending&categoryId=222021&parent_categoryId=459528&pageSize=20&refinements=category~[222033|222021]&noOfRefinements=1"> in the sale</a> at Topshop for £7.50! I really love the print as it has Daisies on it! Motel have some gorgeous items for sale at the moment but I'll post more on that another time - I've had a bit of a motel binge recently and bought three of their bodies and 2 bodycon (!! not like me!) dresses, I love them! I wear this shaped skirt all the time at the moment, I just think it's so flattering, so expect to see my black and leather versions pretty regularly!<br />
<br />
I hope you're all enjoying the autumny sun, I think this is the last week where everything will look pretty with the crispy leaves on the floor until it rains and all turns to slippery sludge and I end up falling on my bum! And I JUST realised - HAPPY HALLOWEEN :)! I should have done a halloweeny post...Maybe after the weekend of celebrations! daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-4927086369098751672012-08-23T17:54:00.000+01:002012-08-23T17:54:07.563+01:00licking young boys blood from her claws. <center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/7844485696/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="579" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8300/7844485696_e86c4a722a_z.jpg" width="386" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/7844484950/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="579" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8446/7844484950_51c2ee3dc9_z.jpg" width="386" /></a></center><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/7844484288/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="507" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8289/7844484288_dbc5d633f8_z.jpg" width="760" /></a></center><center><span style="font-size: xx-small;">peace print body;<a href="http://www.motelrocks.com/shop/"> motel</a> @ <a href="http://www.asos.com/Motel/Motel-Hillary-Peace-Print-Bodysuit/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2296833&SearchQuery=motel%20body&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Peace">asos</a> / flippy skater skirt; topshop / cross belt; topshop / hoodie; mens primark / flatforms; <a href="http://nelly.com/uk/womens-fashion/">nelly</a> / necklace; borrowed</span></center><br />
I love this outfit. I've been wearing this look quite a lot recently, one of my motel bodies with this topshop skirt. The only trouble with the bodies is they don't have poppers at the bottom which makes going to the loo in this outfit a nightmare. I like how I can go from day to night in this too :) Motel make the perfect items for day to night changes. I've also just seen that this body is now £6.50 on ASOS, a steal and still available in all sizes - I fully recommend! <br />
<br />
I don't know if you've seen on twitter but I'm currently selling a few bits a pieces.

I hate these pictures but I just had to show you this t-shirt. I love the print on it, I've just seen that it went down to £10 in the sale which is gutting! The shoes are from Nelly and are actually a bit too small for me so I'll probably end up selling them :( They're a size 3 if anyone is interested! Perfect condition as I've only worn them for about an hour in total! Before I bought from Nelly, all I had heard were bad things, but I bought 3 pairs of shoes from them, they delivered quickly (and it was free postage!) and when I returned a pair of shoes to them the refund went through fine. I'd fully recommend them for anyone who hasn't shopped with them before.<br />
<br />
I've had a crazy few days, had to pack up all my stuff in my house because I thought I needed to move out but fortunately I had a few extra days to organise things. Still not sure what I'm doing/where I'm going to be living, but had a few exciting emails this week which helped to cheer me up!<br />
<br />
Even though I have NO money, I've found myself internet shopping before swiftly closing the page before I have to pay! There are so many gorgeous things on the high street at the moment I'd love to snap up, I always love the AW collections. I'm subscribed to Goldie London's newsletter and their new collection is absolutely gorgeous - you have to <a href="http://www.goldielondon.com/new-in-c-381.html"><b>check it out</b></a>! The smoke print pieces are stunning and I love the fifth picture down in <a href="http://www.goldielondon.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/goldie-aw-201213-has-arrived.html"><b>this post</b></a>; that embellished top is beautiful!<br />

This NEVER happens. An all topshop outfit? I didn't even realise until I just typed it out. This dress is well old, I got it in the sale and never really wore it cos it's a size 6 and bodycon. I totally don't wear bodycon anymore! But worn under this skirt I really love it! I've worn it a couple of times recently, I think it's quite dressy for the day with the embellished neckline, but I throw my grey hoodie over it and I think it dresses it down nicely :)<br />
<br />
I got my nose pierced a few days ago! But to be super organised, I have another two outfit posts to post before I'll be posting it on here. I got a ring and I think it's a bit bent funny so I need to go back and have that fixed. Any tips for looking after it would be helpful, I want it to heal quickly but properly. I'm allergic to savlon so so far just been using salt water and not putting make up on it/touching it, very difficult when the ball keeps dropping out and making me look like a man. I'm sounding really positive about this piercing aren't I?! Anyway, I'm gonna go research the representation of women in 24! Have a nice day :) daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-2485109903120761872012-08-12T11:08:00.000+01:002012-08-12T11:08:05.965+01:00Shimmering like a penny out of reach in the subway grate.<center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/7764595850/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="579" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8293/7764595850_90ddfa71bc_z.jpg" width="386" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/7764595306/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="579" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8296/7764595306_f44a762e3b_z.jpg" width="386" /></a></center><center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/7764594672/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="Untitled" height="507" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7133/7764594672_899258bcc8_z.jpg" width="760" /></a></center><center><span style="font-size: xx-small;">knitted mix yarn hoodie/cardigan; <a href="http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=1&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=5801429&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208525&parent_categoryId=203984&pageSize=200">topshop</a> / dress; <a href="http://www.matalan.co.uk/fcp/product/fashion-to-buy-online/-Dresses/Be-Beau-Aztec-Bodycon-Dress/58909&resultsPerPage=100&attrList=Dept,brand">matalan</a> / vest top; h&m / studded vectra slippers; topshop / metal collar; topshop / jewellery; eBay/gifts/fashionology.</span></center><br />
I love this dress and cardigan hoodie thing SO much! I found the dress in Matalan for £14, I never ever go in there but popped in out of boredom and came out with this. I love the bright, clashing colours with the aztec print. It's also got a dead 90s high neckline with the deep cut shoulders, a shape I love at the moment. I can't believe how much I spent on this cardigan, EIGHTY FIVE ENGLISH POUNDS. That's like, the vast majority of £100. That's a LOT of money to me right now. I don't recommend buying it at all though! It is such poor quality, I've got so many holes in it where the thread just comes undone, and it's totally not worth the aforementioned fortune. But I do love it and wear it all the time so I'll stop bitching about it now!<br />
<br />
Going on a trip to Keele hall today and hopefully the sun will come out!

</span></center>It's been a while since I did one of these! Sorry for the blogging break, I don't really have an explanation other than I was having too much fun to find time to do this. Now summer has started to drag with no money and everybody being in exotic places, I thought I'd start blogging again. This is what I wore yesterday, I really love Motel, they have gorgeous prints and they're bodies/leotards are perfect teamed with this skirt or my beloved skater skirt from topshop. I also love throwing this hoodie on over dressy outfits, I'm sure I'll post an example soon.<br />
<br />
Don't really know what to say as I'm a bit out of the loop! Hope you're all enjoying the sun and please leave me your blog links as I've lost all my bookmarks now I have a new laptop :) I need a blogging binge! And I've been listening to Charlie Simpson loads recently, I think this is the first blog I've posted without Brand New lyrics!daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-86018082184188853732012-05-23T13:39:00.000+01:002012-05-23T13:39:45.910+01:00living in a jar, think the lid's the sky<br />

Hi guys! Sorry it has been so long since I last posted, I've been stupid busy over the easter break from uni and the past couple of weeks with deadlines and exams. I've had some exciting emails recently, including some giveaways and competitions that I can't wait to share with you, but for now I thought I'd leave you with something I wouldn't usually post on here. This is my photography project that I submitted today. I stupidly leave all my assignments to the last minute so this was a mad 24hour dash with far too many hours sleep in between. I based the photographs on a song by Brand New called 'In a Jar' and Plato's Allegory of the Cave. I'm happy with how it turned out but I definitely want to do some more with it. Anyway, hope you like it and I'll be back soon :)daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-26371681170388592092012-03-05T17:27:00.002+00:002012-03-05T17:32:04.862+00:00If there's any justice in heaven, then God won't let me in.<center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6956354343/" title="IMG_7677 by daisykate, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7207/6956354343_05fa4431ab_z.jpg" width="386" height="579" alt="IMG_7677"></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6810242344/" title="IMG_7665 by daisykate, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7200/6810242344_d679c67eb0_z.jpg" width="386" height="579" alt="IMG_7665"></a></center><br />

Oh haiiii skirt that every blogger, their cute pug/kitten and their mum has! I bought the primark one before it exploded on the blogosphere too but hated the elasticated waistband so when I saw this one in H&M I had to pick it up, swear it was only £15/£20 as well so an absolute barg. It's scandalously short though, I've worn it on a few nights out and I've had to wear lace shorts under it - I always wonder if I do flash someone and I'm wearing my lace shorts, do you reckon they'd just think I was wearing massive pants?! I'd be so embarrassed if they did. <br />
<br />
When I saw the Topshop New Gen tshirts I knew I had to get one, but I couldn't narrow it down so I ended up with this Ashish one and the Mary Katrantzou one as well. I keep trying to plan outfits with my Mary Katrantzou floral one but I'm finding it hard to not just play it safe with a black body con skirt, I wish I was as cool as Charlene so I could wear it with classed prints! <br />
<br />
I went to the #LDNLUNCH event on Saturday and had such a good time meeting other bloggers there! I travelled up with <a href="http://www.hashtaggollygosh.com/">Vicky</a> whose blog you MUST avoid if you don't want to spend all your money on pretty jewellery! She was great company and hopefully we'll go to some more events together in the future :)! I met lots of the other girls too who were all lovely, I've definitely found some new daily reads from it! I will link them all once <a href="http://storyofmylife-sophiesoph.blogspot.com/">Sophie</a> and <a href="http://ineedmoreclothes.blogspot.com/">Eloise</a> post all of the links up - massive thank you to them for sorting it all out for us!<br />

Got this dress/tunic with my friends topshop discount this week and I LOVE it. The colours are so hideous and clashy but amazing. I love this drop hem thing, I used to struggle so much to find it and only had a couple of pieces with it so I'm glad to see a few bits about with it now. I need to buy a new leather jacket, I have...6/7 but two have massive holes in and I just don't like my others. So tempted by <a href="http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=4867067&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=277012&parent_categoryId=208491&pageSize=200">this bad boy</a>. I also really like <a href="http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=4744169&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=208524&parent_categoryId=203984&pageSize=200">this,</a> I bet it vomits on the blogosphere (ha) in a week or so. <br />
<br />
I absolutely HATE my hands in this picture and the nails are disgusting, I don't know what the hell made me do a french manicure, it looks grotesque - I'm sorry, it won't happen again guys! My rings make up for it though don't they? ;) <br />
<br />
I don't have much else to say to be honest, had a shit week so I'm off for Mojitos! I hope your week has been much better - I'll be cheerful next time, I promise.daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com29tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-25116642545482006882012-02-20T14:03:00.012+00:002012-02-20T14:57:24.623+00:00if we all don't take cover we're all gonna fall back in love, again.<center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6897487697/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7049/6897487697_568c30dfa3_z.jpg" width="386" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6897484305/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7065/6897484305_0510559cc9_z.jpg" width="386" /></a></center><br />

<br />
Ok ok, so I didn't really wear these shoes out, but how else would I ever get to show you these beauties? They are so ridiculously high I have no idea if I'll ever wear them because I can't walk in them - any tips for stupidly high heels?! They're currently sitting pretty on my chest of drawers. I found them on eBay for £30, absolute bargain! <br />
<br />
I found this midi in Forever21 for I dunno, like £16 I think? I never thought I'd wear a midi but after the encouragement I got for my <a href="http://www.fashionstereotype.com/2012/01/we-all-dance-jingo-cabaret.html">topshop leopard midi</a> I had to give this a go. I don't think it's the most flattering on my thunder thighs, but I love that it's layered and goes shorter in the middle. If I had any money I'd definitely be purchasing a skirt like <a href="http://www.meemee.com/product/glamorous-blue-dip-back-skirt/">this one here</a>. A brand which has really caught my eye recently is <a href="http://www.asos.com/Women/A-To-Z-Of-Brands/Reverse/Cat/pgecategory.aspx?cid=12856#parentID=-1&pge=0&pgeSize=-1&sort=-1">Reverse</a> - they have so many gorgeous pieces and now I'm expanding my hemlines, or rather, elongating them (word?!), I really fancy getting one of their dresses, <a href="http://www.asos.com/Reverse/Reverse-Dress-with-Cut-Out-Harness-Top/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2005434&cid=12856&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=-1&sort=-1&clr=Black%2fblack">this one</a> and <a href="http://www.asos.com/Reverse/Reverse-Dress-with-PVC-Bustier-and-Hi-Low-Hem/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2003141&cid=12856&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=-1&sort=-1&clr=Nude+pvc%2fneon+pink">this one</a> has really caught my eye. I've spent far too much money though since the stunning Audrey over at <a href="http://www.befrassy.com/">Frassy</a> introduced me to <a href="http://nelly.com/eu/womens-fashion/">Nelly</a>. I bought <a href="https://nelly.com/eu/shoes-women/shoes/party-shoes/nelly-shoes-427/exclusive-suri-427777-29/">these</a>, <a href="https://nelly.com/eu/shoes-women/shoes/party-shoes/nelly-shoes-427/exclusive-suri-427777-14/">these</a>, <a href="https://nelly.com/eu/shoes-women/shoes/party-shoes/nelly-shoes-427/elin-427902-39/">these</a> and <a href="https://nelly.com/eu/womens-fashion/clothing/jumpers-cardigans/vero-moda-631/chunky-knit-631404-14/">this</a>, and come pay day <a href="http://nelly.com/eu/shoes-women/shoes/party-shoes/nelly-shoes-427/stud-427993-14/">these beauties</a> will be mine too - kicking myself for not including them in my order, because I hate paying postage so I know I'll end up spending another 75Euro so I get the free delivery! (I'll probably get <a href="http://nelly.com/eu/womens-fashion/clothing/tops/reverse-1401/mesh-sleeve-body-208366-509/">this</a>!) <br />
<br />
This is also my entry into the <a href="http://www.appliancesonline.co.uk/lg-6-motion-direct-drive-washing-machines">LG 6 Motion</a> Give us a Spin Competition via <a href="http://www.etcllymlrs.com/">etcLlymlrs</a>! When I saw the picture on the right I thought the skirt embodied the movement the competition called for so I had to enter - with the gorgeous blue colour it really reminded me of water too. Fingers crossed! <br />

Today I'm spending my day watching Season 4 of Breaking Bad, followed by Marcel Carne's 'Le Quai Des Brumes', Truffaut's 'Les Quatre Cents Coups' and Jean-Jacques Beineix's 'Diva'. I'm SO not as sophisticated as that makes me sound.<br />

<br />
This little outfit is what I wore on Wednesday when I saw my absolute favourite band, Brand New, for the second time in a week. I saw them in Manchester last week and I saw them at the O2 in Birmingham on Wednesday and it was just incredible. I was up in the balcony so I got to see everything and I was just so mesmerised and happy to be there, and just massively appreciative of the band - I'm all gushy about them now! I've loved them for almost a decade now and I pretty much listen to them exclusively (note the majority of my post titles...!) I'm absolutely terrified they're going to announce that they're over at the end of this tour (tonight I think) because they didn't play any new songs and they haven't had a new album for three years. I think I've seen them 6/7 times now, they are just incredible live. I think I've typed too much about this...<br />
<br />
On to the primary (and only) focus of this blog, my outfit. This gorgeous dress is by one of the many brands at MeeMee.com. I was introduced to this website by <a href="http://eleanorechetcuti.tumblr.com/">El</a> (click for her tumblr which has some of her incredible styling on!) and it wasn't long before I'd put in an order. They stock loads of different brands, tonnes which I'd never heard of before, and are soon going to have Mink Pink on there (an absolute favourite of mine), they just started stocking <a href="http://www.meemee.com/product/finders-keepers-cross-detail-dress/">Finders Keepers</a> and I really love <a href="http://www.meemee.com/product/motel-jet-jumpsuit/">this playsuit</a> by Motel. Do not go on this website if you're poor like me! Anyway, I really love the shape of this dress, and because of the fully lace top half you can wear it a few different ways and make the dress completely unique. I've tried it with a nude bralet and a black bralet (like I've worn here) but you could put a strapless bra with it like <a href="http://www.meemee.com/product/lace-top-and-chiffon-skirt-fit-and-flare-dress/">the team at MeeMee styled it</a>, or I think you could play with some colour like a gorgeous deep purple, plum or crimson bra/bralet (braletbraletbralet) As always, I teamed it with my trusty studded belt - my primark ones I've had for years are starting to fall apart so I had to invest in this little number; at £22 it was a lot steeper than my £1 efforts! <br />
<br />
I also have a little story about this coat! I saw it on the 'last chance to buy' rail around the time a lot of coats had gone in the sale in the Arcadia group; it hadn't been marked down from £89, but I made out to the assistant that I'd seen it on the website reduced so she'd check the price for me and yay! It was £59! Plus I had a 25% off deal (read; a very kind friend who works there!) so I ended up paying less than half the original price! I love it so much, although I've found it quite hard to wear; I feel like I can only wear it with all black, any suggestions? <br />
<br />
I've become obsessed with 90210, so the rest of my day will entail me finishing off season 4 - I hadn't ever seen it until a couple of weeks ago; the lovely and <a href="http://alxroe.tumblr.com/">beautiful Alix</a> has been enjoying my 'vintage 90210' tweets - NICK CANNON IS IN HER HOTEL ROOM?! and OH. MY. GAY. are probably favourites ;) <br />

Hii! I'm a bad blogger aren't I? I swear that's all I ever type in my posts. I had some personal stuff I had to sort out which is why I've been absent of late, plus, I just find I don't have time when I'm at uni. I'm always hungover or napping, sorry! I am SO grateful to have hit 550 followers already though, that's more than one new subscriber every day this year! So thank you for following and sticking with my sporadic ways :)! (are smiley faces blog appropriate? probably not...)<br />
<br />
So, I got this coat in Forever21 a fair few weeks ago. I saw it was a small and tried it on, but it was huge. I fell in love with the oversized sort of 90s look about it though (I've had a lot of This is England comments...) and it wasn't until I'd been wearing it for a fortnight that I realised it was a mans coat; oops. If anything though, it's taught me to shop in mens section more often; this was only £12.99 in the sale! I adore my flatforms which I got with a 25% discount code on ASOS; can't stop wearing them! They're just like the Office ones I've been lusting after since I saw the beautiful <a href="http://struttlamode.blogspot.com/">Charlene</a> wearing hers, but I couldn't afford the hefty price tag, so I'm dead pleased ASOS answered my wishes for a pair; in suede too, my favourite material. <br />
<br />
OH HAIIII DISCO PANTS! Not really lolz. Everyone's going mad for them, and although I do like them, I don't know where the sudden hype has come from? They've been around for literally about ten years. I've had these eBay versions for probably a year now (still available via LetsParty, I also have the burgundy and lilac (!) ) but I never wear them as I tend to only wear tights and skirts, but I do really like these with my flatforms. I've worn this outfit three times this week; that's gross isn't it? But it's just so easy to throw on. I actually have three pairs of leggings on here and two long sleeved tops under that shirt, so it's surprisingly cosy. I can see myself teaming more longer tops with leggings from now on - but don't worry; I will NOT be sporting that leggings as trousers look any time soon. Anyway, I'm boring myself. Hope everyones uni results are going well! I get mine a week today, nervous! Oh and if you're a real person and work; HEY WEEKEND :D!daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com24tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-74793600609750552012-01-18T13:15:00.001+00:002012-01-18T13:16:42.158+00:00we all dance a jingo cabaret<center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6705131577/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7144/6705131577_41f93c2c08_z.jpg" width="386" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6705133011/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7025/6705133011_d1899f19bb_z.jpg" width="386" /></a></center><br />

<br />
I know right, a midi? On me? My 5"3(ish) frame?! My scandalously short skirt loving self? I honestly don't know what got into me. Well, I do. My beautiful sister tried this on in Topshop just before she left me to go back to London (sobsob) and it looked so gorgeous I had to try it for myself. I wish I'd tried this with my leather jacket now, but maybe I'll try that in future - would that be too samey to repeat it on here? Probably...<br />
<br />
I've never worn a midi before but envied those who could. This type of dress definitely calls for heels as the helpful people of twitter instructed! And what better heels than my beautiful new Hildas?! Unfortunately I can't see myself wearing this to uni as I'm not as taken by it in flat shoes, nor can I see it on a night out, but it is perfect for a meal as Lauren pointed out. I actually wore this when I popped to see my Mum before I came back to uni (yes, here's another image I prepared earlier, see how prepared I was with my blog before my exams?!) I knew she'd love the 90s grunginess of it all. I'll definitely be experimenting with this length again. <br />
<br />
And queue huge sigh of relief; MY EXAMS ARE OVER! I know I won't do nearly as well in them as I wanted to, I've really struggled with anxiety this semester which was definitely enhanced with some personal stresses recently. As soon as I sat down in the exam my mind went completely blank, don't you just hate that? I also know that I didn't revise enough due to personal stuff so I'll have to try much harder this semester to make up for it. I'm doing a French cinema module which I'm so excited to start because I love Jean-Luc Godard, and a photography module which I can't wait for because I enjoyed <a href="http://www.fashionstereotype.com/2011/05/post-that-has-nothing-to-do-with.html">the one I did last year</a> so much. If you are a french cinema/photography fan please pop any recommendations in the comments, I'd really appreciate it :)<br />

<br />
Hadn't planned on blogging, but I'm doing ANYTHING to avoid revision. I got this top about two weeks ago; I haven't really ordered with missguided, I often find their clothes are a bit tacky and there's too much bodycon for a chubster like me, so I've always been put off. I don't know what made me go on there but there's quite a few nice bits on there at the moment, and this top was only a tenner! And I really love it, I love the print and the shape; I ordered s/m for anyone wanting a size guide, I reckon m/l could be a dress on anyone my sort of height (5'3 I think?) I also got some leopard print leggings (ME?!) and some wet look ones since my old ones are in tatters. The quality isn't too bad, the stitching is coming away on the hem of this top but nothing my sewing machine can't fix!<br />
<br />
Had good and bad times with Mr Postman this week; the good was, my Brand New tickets came! I'm seeing them twice, I've seen them four times now, and they are just incredible. I can't wait for February! Anybody else going? The bad post was my huge amazon order! I ordered 18 books with my birthday money, some I've wanted for ages, some for uni, some for fun (damnyouautocorrect and the hangover cookbook ha!) and the stupid idiot at Yodel has listed it as delivered 10 days ago, and left in 'Porch' - I DON'T HAVE A BLOODY PORCH! I'm so annoyed because I know it'll take ages to sort out, I hate Yodel, they're customer service is terrible. Don't use them ladies! <br />
<br />
My poor kitten has been chewing her tail so much (she chases it like a dog the silly thing) that it's got all infected, yuk! I had to put a cone <a href="http://instagr.am/p/hDq5y/">on her head</a> and she absolutely hated it - see here. She was so grumpy, she had it on for three hours then I couldn't bare it any more. I'll probably try again tomorrow so I can put some more cream on her, I feel so cruel though! She's also turning grey and chocolatey brown now - she was black and white! How weird is that?<br />
<br />
I've had a huge Flickr clear out this evening (which made me realise that my flickr registers the date that I take the photos <i>off</i> my camera as the date I've taken them? So now I look like I have weird little fashion shows on my own. I don't. I wore this last Thursday if anyone was wondering.) Flickr was trying to make me pay, so I ended up deleting a load of images, and then realised they wouldn't show on here any more if I'd deleted them; doh! So I had to delete some posts. I now have only 25 posts, what on earth?! I know I didn't have much more, but still, am I that sporadic a blogger? Must. Try. Harder. I've even got another post lined up for the end of the week wearing....A MIDI DRESS?! I dunno what's happening to me. Look at me, rambling purely so I don't have to revise for my exam in erm, 36 hours.

<br />
Say 'hello' to my beautiful new bag! If you follow me on <a href="http://www.twitter.com/daisy_kate">twitter</a>, you're probably bored of hearing about it, but I absolutely adore it. I spied it with my sister in Selfridges a few days ago, and I thought I'd have a little look, but never dreamed that I'd leave the shop with it! I should have photographed them really, but basically, it was missing 4 studs (which you absolutely can't tell) so instead of being £695, it was massively reduced! I decided that because I fell so, so in love with it, and I've never felt such buttery soft leather, I should buy it with some of my 21st birthday money, and I'm so glad that I did! Aside from the miserable sales assistant (why do they assume that everyone is poor? I am poor, but please don't insult me you horrible cow!) who I really hope doesn't get ANY commission ever. <br />
<br />
The shorts are new too; I picked them up in Topshop the same day while I was at the Trafford centre after having them on my wish list for a while. I rarely wear shorts, especially not ones this short, and I know they're really not flattering AT all on my shape, but I just love the pattern. They have some ruffles over the pockets too, and these are the FIRST shorts to ever fit my waist properly - they're usually far too low cut or too big if they fit my bum! Such a pain.<br />
<br />
And lastly, these beautiful shoes, which fit like a glove and are of AMAZING quality cost me guess how much? £1. ONE ENGLISH POUND. How you're asking? Because the crazy people at Miista decided to do a sale whereby people tweet about the shoe they want to be cheaper, and based on their Klout score, they knock a percentage off! The sale ends on Friday so hurry up and get tweeting while you can! My flatmate and I are after <a href="http://miista.com/shop/brielle-black/">these gorgeous wedges</a> after seeing them on the Topshop website - so feel free to tweet for us ;) <br />
<br />
I also have to acknowledge that I've hit over 500 GFC readers! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I really appreciate every single face that pops up on there and your comments make my day :) I can't believe my blog is barely a year old, I feel like it has come so far for such a crap, sporadic blogger like myself.

<br />
I got this dress along with a couple of coats when I saw it go in the sale at Topshop on christmas eve. I'd been searching everywhere for <a href="http://www.meemee.me/product/glamorous-lace-and-chiffon-skater-dress/"><i>this dress</i></a>, so bought this as a substitute to wear on NYE. I fully intended to return it when I finally found the dress I originally wanted in Dorothy Perkins (so unexpected!) but when I tried it on I just fell in love! I find that skater skirts really flatter my figure because I have such a huge bum, so I've loved that the past season has been full of them - and I only paid £16 for this dress too which is an absolute bargain! <br />
<br />
I bought this fur thing from Forever21 when I went to spend my birthday money. I love the style of fur it is - not that 'hair' like fur, more curly...I'm struggling to describe it! Being such a pear shape I do think it shows off my bad points, but I love it all the same! I don't have loads to say today, I'm shattered from work so think I'll leave you with <a href="http://instagr.am/p/cdAcs/"><i>this beauty</i></a> and get an early night!daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com56tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-43201629107511098722011-12-23T07:31:00.003+00:002011-12-23T07:38:19.258+00:00and I've never felt so alive in the whole of my life<center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6557972941/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7147/6557972941_e0d2f2f5da_z.jpg" width="386" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6557970157/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7166/6557970157_926f010378_z.jpg" width="386" /></a></center><br />

Firstly; WOW. Thank you so much for all of the lovely comments on my last post. I'm actually a really rubbish blogger when it comes to commenting, I get a bit embarrassed about what to say (how daft!) But I've recently started to leave them when I visit a blog because, as a blogger, I know how nice it is to receive comments and a bit of recognition for the efforts we all put into a blog post. I'm hoping to keep up my commenting sprees - plus, I've found so many gorgeous bloggers with enviable wardrobes through my commenting sprees! And it <i>may</i> have helped me get slightly closer to my 500 follower aim for <strike>Christmas</strike> New Year! <br />
<br />
These are a few new buys again, another piece of cobalt blue! This is a dead basic t-shirt from Forever21, but it's such good quality! It's that really gorgeous silky jersey which feels so much more expensive than it was - wish I'd bought a black and white one now! I paired it with my new necklace to add a bit more interest - another piece I can't stop wearing. I usually only wear real silver because I get so annoyed when costume jewellery tarnishes, but I had to make an exception for this beauty (and my bracelets in this post!) My favourite part of this outfit has to be my new cardigan! It's by Staple and I've wanted it for absolutely ages. When I was given my birthday money, and it had been reduced, I just knew I had to get it. I've already had 6 compliments on it and I've only worn it out twice - and once was just to get petrol! I can see this being worn to death. <br />
<br />
I adore these earrings which are rough pieces of Citrine and, if like me you love knowing the meanings of crystals, is associated with the mind and psychic powers. I have lots of different crystal jewellery and I honestly do feel that they work - I've worn my health crystal throughout this past semester and not been ill once! And we all know how sickly I was last year...! I'm rarely seen wearing matching earrings, in my other ear I have a feather and a bird skull necklace. These were all gifts over my birthday from my best friends and flatmates. I can't stop wearing them and I'm amazed that they chose them as they are absolutely perfect for me, and I'm notoriously difficult to buy for! I also got €100 in vouchers for Fashionology for my birthday so now I'm spoilt for choice! I'm thinking of buying <a href="http://www.fashionology.nl/earrings/silver-black-obsidian-casing-earrings.html">these</a>, <a href="http://www.fashionology.nl/bracelets/cross-bangle-ii.html">this</a> and <a href="http://www.fashionology.nl/rings/silver-black-obsidian-ring.html">this</a>, although I might wait until their new designs which will no doubt arrive in the spring!<br />
<br />
I've babbled again haven't I? This really will be my last post until after Christmas, so I hope you all get exactly what you want and eat loads and loads like I will be! Thank you again to all of my new followers for helping me to reach my target, I really appreciate it. If you do any Christmassy posts with wish lists or what you get, post them in the comments because I'd love to see! <b>Merry Christmas</b> :)!daisy katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06231713489362399412noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405423453501547386.post-28483777437276097492011-12-21T14:16:00.002+00:002011-12-21T19:38:21.918+00:00sing me to sleep<center><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6548864171/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7028/6548864171_18505607ab_z.jpg" width="386" /></a> <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/daisykate/6548870025/" title="Untitled by daisykate, on Flickr"><img alt="" height="579" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7013/6548870025_0d62734260_z.jpg" width="386" /></a></center><br />

I've finally finished uni for Christmas, so hopefully I'll have a bit more time for blogging. This term has been really difficult, especially when I've had my kitten distracting me! My flatmate and I decided to go to Birmingham as a little goodbye trip before we went home for the holidays and I finally got to go to Forever21! I spent far too much of my birthday money on a few things you'll no doubt be seeing on here soon. I know this is dead boring but I was so surprised by the customer service too! I was struggling to reach something and a really nice lady came over and helped me, and she continued to help and ask if I needed anything the whole time I was in the store - which was ages! I find that good customer service in high street shops a rarity, which is always really off putting when you want to spend your hard earned cash and there's a miserable cow being bitchy, but this girl really put so much effort into being dead lovely and I really appreciated it. I even rang up and told the manager how good she was! I swear I'm actually meant to be middle aged. <br />
<br />
Can you believe it - I'm wearing a colour that isn't a berry tone! I love cobalt blue! It's one of those shades that I think suits every skin tone, and it fits perfectly into my predominantly black wardrobe. I find it dead difficult choosing blazers because the fit has to be just right, and I love this fitted but at the same time loosely cut style - does that even make sense? <br />
<br />
I love this t-shirt too, it has a picture of Morrissey getting his hair cut on it - my boyfriend goes mad because I keep stealing it! I got these creepers ages ago in the Miss Selfridge sale for about £20 I think. I haven't worn them much because I thought they made my feet look dead big, but I really like them with this outfit. They're really comfy too, so maybe they'll get a few more outings in the future! <br />
<br />
If I don't blog before Christmas, have a lovely day! We're going out for our Christmas dinner again this year which I love, we get all dressed up and don't have to worry about washing up! I hope they do Champagne sorbet like last year - it's so good! I'm getting so fat this winter, but I keep saying it's because I need the extra insulation...!<br />
<br />

These pictures were taken a couple of weeks ago but I completely forgot to post them! This is another one of my new fur coats. It went in the sale for £68, and I actually only ended up paying £18 for it because I had an exchange and also signed up for an Outfit credit card just so I could get the £20% off! I really love it. It's completely different to my black fur so I felt like I could justify it - this one has a real vintage 'car coat' feel about it! And it's brown...although that's pretty axiomatic! <br />
<br />
I've included some extra pictures in today's post because, HOW strange are they? I love how they turned out but it was completely unintentional. When I imported them they just ended up like this, I really panicked that I'd broken something! I recently came across <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/danmountford/">Dan Mountford's</a> work with double exposures (I know these pictures aren't the same thing!) and I absolutely love them. I'm doing a photography module again next semester so I hope that I can do something inspired by him. <br />
<br />
It was my 21st birthday yesterday! I got thoroughly spoilt and I've still got presents from my family to come! I might have to be really self indulgent and dedicate a whole post to birthday shenanigans! For those of you who don't know, I am a twin, but my beautiful sister (we're non-identical, I'm aware that comes across massively arrogant for those who don't know us!) lives in Surrey at Uni so I couldn't spend the day, as I always have, with her. I also had loads of work due in so, apart from the evening (another day, another blog...) it just felt like any other day. This weekend will be our real birthday, Rosie is coming to my house on Friday and we're spending the evening at something called Winterfest - it's effectively Keele Univeristy's winter ball but a lot messier! Then Saturday we'll be visiting family - and she's being spoilt rotten! I can't wait to see her face when she get's her presents :) Wow, I think this is possibly THE most self indulgent post (the irony) of my entire blog - which evidently, turns 1 soon! <br />
<br />
I'm absolutely shattered now, so I'm going to watch The Shining (I'm terrified already) with my flatmates and gorge on Eton Mess! Hope everyone's uni assessments are going ok - it'll be Christmas soon! <br />
<br />
P.S. Did I really put 'shenanigans' in my blog?
