(wearing: vintage bustier from Paris, grey top (under lace) H&M, dress (skirt) AA, woolen tights who knows...? & shoes originally from faith, free on a shoot (I know, I know, I need some new shoes but they're so damn comfortable!)
(wearing: shredded t-shirt via etsy from UrbanRevisions, purple bull denim skirt AA, wool tights as before, shoes as before)
After a really crappy week last week things are looking good again! Just had an interview at a new college & start on the 1st of June to do Physics, English & Maths. I would never have thought I'd be doing such academic subjects, but my year at St Brendans (sixth form) has been a mess & honestly I can't wait to get out.
Oh & I get pay PLUS the tax I shouldn't have paid at the end of the month, sooo...
WISH LIST FOR SUMMER
- high waisted anything
(thinking full skirts with tucked overhanging tank tops & gladiators)
- patterned trousers!
(see last post)
- a cobalt blue bikini
- sheer anything
(AA mesh top or dress even...hmm, I'm addicted)
- vintage florals
(either on the skirts or trousers mentioned above, or on oversized vest tops)
- hats/headscarfs/head wear
(after last posts thinking I might try & branch out into head wear)
- new shoes
(brown wedges, or plain black pumps as mine are pretty much dead, what do you think?)
So, that's all I can really think of right now this second.
What are you looking for this summer?

love both outfits here!
i think my wishlist for summer would include: a playsuit (just posted a pic on my blog of a cute polka dot one), high waisted skirts/shorts, gladiator sandals, some brown/tan brogues & lots of tops! lol

THat bustier is amazing. I agree with Eliza both outfits are rather delish :D
Ah, a fellow vampire too ;) I used to take walks late at night/early morning but then my flatmates started an intervention and now I'm completely banned. Pretty nasty things can happen down here so I'm thankful for that.

20 May 2009 14:52
i love the bustier;D and the second outfit rocks;)))

My summer wishlist consists of one thing: a black bustier. One that I can wear with a highwaist skirt. I think then my life will be complete.
Question: did you not get any strange looks while wearing underwear as outerwear? I'm just trying to gauge how liberal other countries are with judging unique fashion looks.
20 May 2009 15:05
Love the idea of underwear for outerwear! Looks brilliant and well dont on the t shirt shredding. I am yet to perfect that xoxox
20 May 2009 15:16
i love the jacket/bustier combo!
you have really great hair btw
wish i could go short without looking like shirley temple

I loved the top look when i saw it on Chictopia and I love what you did with the back of the top in the second. I'm kind of craving a pair of patterned trousers, as well :-)
20 May 2009 18:47
As I wrote on chictopia..I love the idea! Look amazing:) :***
20 May 2009 19:08
I've posted my purchases in my newest post, but I'm not sure if I'll be showing my drawings any time soon :p I'm rather insecure about them so perhaps when I'm extremely proud of one...!
I'm in luvvvv with your shredded tshirt btw, it reminds me I should wear mine more often. And your wishlist sounds pretty awesome!
20 May 2009 19:24
thanks for the blog comment. I am glad you liked the blog. I love your outfits. I really love the aa tank dress.
20 May 2009 19:42
love the bustier....awesome style!
20 May 2009 21:15
I like the way that t-shirt is shredded. I'm totally searching for high waisted anything too! A vintage floral high waist skirt would just make my day.
I'm also looking for the perfect mens shirts just to throw on when I have my lazy days.
20 May 2009 21:45
Thank you for the lovely blog comment. Was just looking through some of your posts and I must say, I've fallen in love with your killer sense of style (i'm linking you).
Love this white bustier over black (so clever!) and that red printed topshop dress a few posts down. Its great to know we finally have a topshop here in NYC. Phew.
Also, I've been to Bristol back in January. The shopping there is endless...haha. NicE!
20 May 2009 21:52

xoxxxx
21 May 2009 00:45
too fabulous! love the way the second top is shredded - it's very clean.
i am in the same boat when it comes to high-waisted skirts and vintage florals for the summer. i'm also on the hunt for light denim, pastel colors and super versatile pieces (AA le sac dress plx)
21 May 2009 01:13
thanks for your comment :) and of COURSE, like the day after I posted that about Sevigny, I got the new W mag, and in it is a great editorial of her. So now I'm torn. I like Deyn she's kind of just another model.
The bustier is sick... and I'm loving anything and everything cobalt for the summer... just not a hugely shouldered micromini ;)

21 May 2009 01:15
*but she's kind of just another model. Gotta proofread haha
21 May 2009 02:34

The shredded tee is great. I like how colorful your closet looks.
21 May 2009 21:47
Mmm bustier loving.
Thanks for the comment.
It seems I follow a lot of your commentors. I guess the blogging world's a small one.
My summer wishlist includes:
man's shirt
other big floaty summery shirts
gladiator-like sandals, which are essential each summer really.
a loose white tank.
mmm. so much white for my multiple pairs of demin shorts.
Unfortunately at the end of this year my wardrobe still has to weigh 20kg to get it all home again...
