The Country Bucket.

Ive always wanted to travel and have been thinking about it a lot more lately so to get some of it outta my system I'm gonna post about it OK? So the places I'd LOVE and NEED to travel to before i die are,.well some of them as I got bored after all that,.. drum roll please..


Buenos Aires - Argentina

Dirt cheap & loaded with culture along with a who load of sunshine? If that's not an unmissable experience I don't know what is..

San Jose - Costa Rica 

Another cheap as chips city with some of the most beautiful scenes, views and beaches I have ever seen. I'd be gutted to go to a place like this without one of them really professional cameras!.

Guayaquil - Ecuador 

Another cheapskates dream but just look at the buildings? why would you have a reason not to go? Not to mention the fact that I love the song...Laaaaaaaaaame.

Rome - Italy..

Need I say anymore?..Didn't think so.

  Paris - France...
Aside from the views there's the fashion and the food..
I'm won already! Bonvoyage.

Sexy Shoesies..

So I have this delicious pair of shoes from Dorothy Perkins, however the club I wear them to has gotten the better of them and made a few dents and marks on the heels.. So me being the beautifully talented gyal I am, customised them to freshen them up. Seriously I'm not that talented it was child's play...

Excuse the hideous mess on the floor I promise I tidied and hoovered today :D.

So I funked the already lovely shoes up and made them even more gorgeous ....

And it only cost me a couple of quid, I got the 'diamonds' as they re named on the packet - haha yeah right, from POUNDLAND. Definitely getting some more! And the glue was from my gran (if you don't have a gran as awesome as mine you can get superglue any where, or you can use nail glue) and the rest is pretty self explanatory!.. Ooh I love a 5 minute job to funk up your wardrobe!

Mood Board

I love the catepillar from Alice in wonderland, these shoes are so cute! ☮ I cant get enough of tea at the mo & am making it my mission to try almost every kind I can find.. I also learnt how to make turkish coffee and have a mini obsession with not only the drink but the teeny tiny cups they come in.☮ I really want a dashiki.. I have no idea how I would wear it but I just love the prints. ☮ Obviously the flatforms are big at the mo, I find them quite hit & miss but these Marc Jacob ones are toooo cute. ☮ Had a blast from the past googling Kelly Kapowski & Lisa Turtle - Their outfits excite me I want their wardrobes! ☮ Finally I looooooooove these shoes !! I need a pair now.

getting there..

So I've started to have a go at sewing, dress making etc & I think I'm starting to get there slowly but surely.. So far I've managed to edit 2 garments..

These were high waisted polazzo pants from Primark, but with the inspiration/help from Fabi's blog I managed to make them into cute shorts for the spring yaaay.

This dress was made from a paisley maxi dress from Newlook and a pink vest top from Topshop, its pretty basic I just made an elasticated skirt out of the dress and sewed the skirt to the top. I'm not advanced enough to do much else, one day...


Although it was only basics I really enjoyed making these two so I'm gonna keep practicing and see what i come up with, i also made a beautiful necklace from the leftover fabric of the maxi dress but i don't have a picture at the moment so that will be another post, another time. I love getting arty :D.

I'm trying my hardest to express my fashion more (in the winter its almost impossible to get me out of my hoodie and sweats) and so this i give you step one. i personally love this outfit, well I'm not too keen on the boots but at least i tried.
