OOTD: Spring Chick Vs. Grunge Goth

Just a quick little post for you guys showing you how I styled my most recent purchases, which you can read about in this post here. I really wanted to wear some colour because spring was taking sooooooo long to come around. It seems to have arrived now and I like to think this outfit had something do with that ;)

I also enjoy how cute my spring colours are on top and how grungy and dark my bottom half is, I just love my creepers too much and when summer comes around they are too hot to wear so I'm getting as much out of them now as possible! I can't believe I've had them for 3 years either! Literally the best wearing pair of shoes I've owned, they look like I got them out of the box yesterday.

Cardigan- Vintage £6    Shirt- American Apparel £51    Leggings- Zara £20    Creepers- Underground £89

Necklace- Matalan £10

What do you think of my outfit mash up? Are you as insanely happy as me that spring has turned up FINALLY?!

Birthday Wishlist!

It's one week to my 23rd (sadface) birthday today and I've had some real trouble thinking up what I want this year. But what started off as a tiny somehow culminated into a huuuuuge wish list! So I decided to share some of my faves with you guys:

1. White Converse- £42 Available from ASOS.

I haven't had a pair of Converse since I was about 17 and I think it's time to be reunited with these versatile shoes!

2. ASOS Spiked Pastel Bracelets- £8 each

A combination of two trends- pastels & grungy spikes- Perfect!

3. Urban Decay Brow Box- £17 & De-Slick Control Makeup Fix- £23 Available from Debenhams.

I can't usually afford expensive makeup so getting some for my birthday is always good.

I've had a recent obsession with my eyebrows so a brow box is perfect! And I'm obsessed with keeping a matte makeup face!

4. Long Clothing Fox T-Shirt- £35

I've been wanting a Long t-shirt for longtime (sorry bad pun!) but I can't decided between a black or white one...

5. ASOS Bodycon Mickey Mouse Print Dress- £15

Perfect midi length & funtime print. Oh and I already know it will go great with those Converse I want :P

6. Hot Diamonds Chops Away Silver & Rose Gold Necklace- £75

My name is Bacon, this necklace features a flying pig. A coincidence? I think not.

7. ZARA Leather Jacket- £149

I have never ever ever owned a leather jacket & I think it's about time that changed. And this ZARA one was just screaming out at me.

Well this list has definitely got me in the mood for my birthday and birthday treats! Hopefully I'll get a couple of the cheaper options from my list (I think the leather jacket is asking for a little too much!).
Have I left any essential birthday present goodies off my list?
