SEXY AND I KNOW IT

SEXY AND I KNOW IT

Just a quick post today with a picture of what I wore out for Halloween accompanied by THE song of the night. Who doesn't love a bit of LMFAO? One of my lovely friends managed to snap this photo before we hit town (Pro photographer much?! I should ask her to do my outfit posts) where we went to Cav for what turned out to be an absolutely amazing night.

I'll hopefully manage to get a few full body shots of us all... the girls went as Sexy Felines with furry manes which you can just see it under my hair and the boys as Abercrombie models - whoever suggested that was a genius - and when I do I'll edit them in!

Top - Forever 21.   Earrings - New Look.   Beaded Bracelets - H&M

Strand Bracelet - 10m2.   Ring - Topshop.   Nails - Sephora by OPI Metro Chic

Not a massive fan of Afrojack but No Beef is such an addictive track... I'm loving the Hangover / Vegas video and watching them run through the Bellagio makes we wish I was still there. We were only in town for a few days before flying to New York but made sure to get our fill of Sin City. If you haven't been then I TOTALLY recommend it (please take me with you) otherwise you're missing out on a whole lot of drinking, gambling, partying and sights that are on another level. I mean, just look at this! Look at it! Beauuuutiful.

Slightly suffering from lack of sleep today so just tramping around the house and putting off a Tesco trip. Love this casual top from Forever 21 here (I'm wearing taupe) as it goes with pretty much everything. Loving Forever 21 in general right now but I've heard their UK customer service is a bit rubbish which is a shame. I know when I buy stuff I want it at my door about 30 seconds later! Have on the usual jewellery and this seriously cool Bird Skull ring from topshop.

YOU USED TO HOLD ME

YOU USED TO HOLD ME

Jacket - H&M.   Top - Truly Madly Deeply.   Skirt - H&M.   Belt - Vintage

Silver Strand Bracelet - Links of London.   Nails - Models Own Concrete Mixer

This is pretty much my standard go-to sort of outfit. Skirt, top and leather jacket... Someone please send my award for originality through the post.

The skirt is one of those H&M beauties that I have in loads of colours. They're just really versatile and depending on the sort of club you're heading to... easy to dress up for going out at night too. The elastic band is a whole lot of ugly though so definitely worth pairing it with a belt unless you want to look like you've just been dropped off at school. The top on the other hand is actually amazing. I think it was from Urban Outfitters and extortionately priced but it has this really nice illustration of the anatomy of a bird (love birds) which is labelled with the kind of handwriting I wish I had.

Enough rambling, I'm off to watch American Horror Story. Not sure if I like it or not but it's definitely holding my attention.

Jacket - M&S.   Top - H&M.   Shorts - Hollister.   Scarf - Alexander McQueen

Necklaces - Accessorize.   Beaded bracelets - H&M.   Strand Bracelet - 10m2.   Boots - Topshop

I should probably start off by saying that I am definitely not a fashionista. I don't particularly enjoy clothes shopping and when I do eventually find something I like, I buy about 10 of them. Case in point - black H&M bodycon skirts.

So this is what I'm wearing today to catch a friend for a couple of drinks after work. I've had this jacket about 6 months and worn it once - shame on me because it's really nicely cut - so it's getting a bit of an outing in my attempt to look smart casual. Wearing it with a plain black tank, a pair of indecently short shorts from Hollister, opaques and the Topshop Allegra's which I lovelovelovelove and will be on my feet until next summer.

I know most of you have probably found this blog through twitter, but if not and you'd like to follow this is where to find me!

HEYY

So as I'm supposed to be working on a commission right now, it makes sense that I'm sitting with a cup of tea and procrastinating by making a new blog. Isn't that always the way?

Anyway, a quick introduction! I'm Naomi, a 22 year old recent Graphic Design graduate from Edinburgh attempting to avoid the world of work and prolong being a student by working freelance in the areas of Graphics and Illustration. You can check out my main website here and my photoblog here if you'd like to see what I get up to when I'm "working" but I'd like to dedicate this little corner of the internet to my everyday musings.
It might be shallow and generic in terms of content - think copious amount of cat pictures, OOTD's and showing you my binge-buys from Superdrug - but we all have to start somewhere!
