Burberry Prorsum Pics.

Here are the buckled knee length boots. Don't they just look so comfy?

And that huge bag that came in several colours. Sigh.

And one of the aviator style jackets. In fact, I think my Dad still has a very similar one from the 70s in his wardrobe somewhere....hmmm.....could be time for a quick call home!

The ankle buckle boots. Again, deliciously comfy, no?

Burberry Prorsum LFW

Just watched the Burberry Prorsum show streamed live from London. I am loving the whole cadets/aviation theme! I especially loved the huge coats with all the buckle detail, the ankle and knee length buckled boots, the thigh high khaki boots (such a nice change from black) and that HUGE bag! Hopefully I'll have some photos up soon but am off to bed now as it is 1.45am in Osaka and I'm up at 7!

Just a little note to say...

Term is nearly over, only have one class left which is on Wednesday! The weather is looking better (fingers crossed, touch wood) and it's the end of the school year in Japan! This means that very soon I will have the time to take photos in the daylight, so no more will you have to suffer the interiors of mine and my boyfriends apartments, yay!

Also, am planning a bit of a two week jaunt around Japan in March so hopefully lots of exciting locations will present themselves! I only hope I pack the right clothes!

More clothes related posts coming soon!

Valentine's Day

I had a fantastic Valentine's Day, hope you did too! The boyfriend took me to a gorgeous Spanish restaurant and then to our favourite whiskey bar. Decided it was too cold and rainy to go all out colourful, so black it was! As well as a little tribute to Alexander McQueen. To liven it up a bit I put some very red lipstick on and went all out Japanese with some fake eyelashes, oh and my favourite blue hoop earrings.

Wearing Zara dress and Jacket, scarf Alexander McQueen copy from ASOS, F21 shoes, all jewelry presents.

Miu Miu Platforms

Am a bit late to post about these but have been waiting for free time time to nab the scanner at school!
I am in love with these Miu Miu platforms! Although, in this story in US Vogue I wasn't so impressed with what they were styled with (blasphemy I know)! The first picture with the jumpsuit though is fab! But anyway, aren't these wedges just dreamy? I love the different combinations of material, with some being all over one print and others a contrast of prints, prints and plain and colour.

RIP ALEXANDER McQUEEN!

The world has lost a very artistic and talented person.

Feel Like Jumping

 

Horrible weather here at the moment so yet more inside photos, sorry! A new wall for the background this time though. See if you can spot the spelling mistake in a couple of the posters!
Leopard print is the print of Osaka so I bought this jacket soon after I arrived here and I love it!
Also tried tying my hair up today, think I like it, maybe... 
Oh, and sorry about the pile of marking in the corner of the first picture. What a fun National Holiday I had! Hmmm...

Wearing F21 boots, Primark jeans, River Island red tank top, Zara semi sheer white top, nameless necklace and jacket.

Dreaming of Bodies!

Last night I actually had a shopping dream! And I was shopping for a body suit. Random?! Anyway, since it is obviously something my subconscious wants me to buy (hah) I've been having a look round and I'm a bit disappointed to be honest. Here are some of my faves from Topshop and AA.

Old Hair!

Seeing as I can't sleep here's some photos of my old hair over the past 3 years or so. Miss being long and white blonde have to say, but not allowed to go back to white blonde according to my bosses :(

Which one's your fave? Blonde, brown, highlights (as I have now), long, short, fringe, fringeless? Straight, curly (my natural state)? Right, another attempt to sleep me thinks...

Cup Noodle and Crab Sticks


Today was one of those days where I really just couldn't be bothered with anything. So here I am at 1am going on a cup noodle and crab sticks run and then messing around with my self timer. Suppose I should get on with my marking and then go to bed, have to be up in 5 hours!

Wearing Zara t-shirt, unknown jacket, AA scarf, Dorothy Perkins leggings, F21 boots.

Swap Shop!

 
Saturday was a rather girly affair. I had some friends round and we swapped some clothes we no longer wanted. I managed to get a new bag and some fab tops and a dress. Then we had our makeup done by a fabulously talented friend, who is also a goddess in the kitchen!

Wearing, ABC Mart cowboy boots, Uniqlo jeans, Lipsy top, unknown necklace.
