AUVOIR



A tad bit moody

Denim jacket: Vintage Market, turtle neck jumper: Zara, velvet leggings: Charity shop, mini backpack: Charity shop, boots: vintage market

Ahhhh! I didn't realise how cold it was until i went outside, hence the ''i really don't want to be doing this expression'' above. I wore this on Saturday( I know centuries ago1) to buy a few bits and bobs for a birthday dinner in the evening. Is ought of felt a glimpse of hope when the sun showed its shameless face earlier that weak, that was until i went outside and was thoroughly deceived. I am in love with my velvet leggings, i wear them almost all the time, they go with everything, with a little bit of layering underneath, i am kept me soo warm.
toodles!
Love Ben

Ola people!

I've been lusting after these monsters for aagggees! So i decided to let out all of this excitement through this post. I love the fact that these boots are so tough, its like they've got a voice of their own. They have all the features of a hard rocker, the heavy gold metal, leather and the stomp stomp heels, these are what makes these horrid beauties the whole package. I am especially loving how they look with something flowy and massive tees. This is what i would call the thorough biker.  

ta ta love Ben.

In circular motion

hey dolls!

Just wanted to show of my new babies, aren't they incredible. I have decided to name them Delilah,in my household we have a habit of naming some of our properties. for example my frigdes' name is Catherine, yes we are a bunch of weirdo's lol. i have chosen this name because they are somewhat soulful yet add a lot of impact.  

You guys may have noticed me changing my blog name a few times and deleting some posts, well that was me just me finding my niche and knowing exactly what I'm blogging about, i don't want to end up all over the place. Right now I am happy with the way things are looking, and have decided not to publish a post unless i am 100% happy with it.

ooh and don't mind the little sticker thing still being on Delilah, i fear that if i take it of she won't be new anymore. oh and they are from 'The clock tower market' in Greenwich and only £5 ( i know bargain!), the jumper is vintage via my mama and the beanie is from H&M.

Have a lovely Sunday guys.

Love Ben 

Once upon a time

Hey there!

This post is a mix of my love for Company magazine, (and may i add is freaking amazing, its always there when I'm in dying need of inspiration) and my love for ASOS ( i don't need to tell you how amazing this store is). I was looking through Company and came across this shop its called 'onceuponatimevintage' (hence the post title) and is located on ASOS Marketplace. it specialises in vintage, customised and modern clothing. I am completely and utterly in love with their studded beanies and tie-dye t-shirts and dresses, they're so edgy and cool. I would literally love to own this store, that way i could take everything for free.  I love this shop because it just screams me, especially the black cropped top with typographic print, although the prices are way above my budget, there is still no harm in admiring. Auvoir guys.
Love Ben

Hello new year

2013

2012 has been good to me! for starters I'm still here. That year i went through quite a few transitions. I transitioned from relaxed (permed) to natural, I willingly cut my hair, something i said i would never do. I turned 16! it is sort of a big deal right i mean they make whole shows out of this age. I started sixth form,which is excruciating, but I'm getting through. I went to Paris, which is an immensely beautiful city and have a really good H&M. When i grow old and have travelled the world and had my grand kids, I'm going to buy a nice cosy apartment in France with a balcony in a neighbour full of laughing children playing football every minute of the day and narrow roads and then I'm going to sit on that balcony for the rest of my life.

I'm not gonna lie for a Broke kid like me, Paris did sort of batter my wallet. That reminds me of summer, the best season, there was so much Sun! Then there were those weird random days where the weather won't make up its mind. 

Great thing about the sun is when i woke up today on the first day of 2013 I looked out the window and the sun was shining like it was summer. I sought of felt like 2013 was probably gonna be better. Hopefully.
