Let's get playful!

I love playsuits of all varieties, they look good dressed up or down and this version from Forever 21 makes no exception to the rule!
I love it because it looks good with crops thrown underneath and features a silky-like finish and is just the right length for someone my height (5'2).

I was feeling a bit Christmassy (I know, I know it's not even December yet) so teamed it with my sparkly black crop top bought from a charity shop several years ago, my lovely Chelsea boots from Office (the perfect heel for the daytime) and a silver spiky necklace from H&M.

This was one of those last minute outfits I put together, I've been opting for warmer colours recently as it's that time of year when they look good! I had planned to wear a playsuit from Urban Outfitters however I didn't like how it looked on! 

I had a last minute rummage through my drawers and wardrobes (note the use of plurals haha) and came across this skirt, which I'd only ever wore in the daytime. I am a huge fan of florals and love this particular style from Missbehaver.com as it's quite trans seasonal. The corset crop top is a recent purchase of mine from H&M and I'd been looking forward to wearing it for a while but wasn't sure what with. 

It was nippy outside last night so I threw some tights on and my old faithful leather jacket - perfect for those chilly nights in town!

P.S. Ignore the kitchen roll on the floor - I had just spilt some of my cocktail there... Oops!

Happy Halloween!

So this year I went to a Halloween party that involved DIY'ing your own costume...  Sounds a bit messy right?!

After struggling to come up with an idea for ages I googled homemade costume ideas and saw that you could make a bat costume with a broken black umbrella - definitely sounds easier than it actually was! 

I had to cut all the metal bits off using some pliers (and if you're weak like me you would not find this an easy task), I then had to cut two segments of the umby (umbrella) up and sew it to the arm and sides of a black cardigan... The costume did turn out great though!

I also went on a night out on actual Halloween with two of my good friends - we don't remember a lot of the night... These "blood" cocktails might be the reason why!
