Purple Leaves


I love that it’s getting a bit colder and all the leaves are such pretty colours. When I took these pictures it was the perfect autumn day.

I’m wearing Topshop waxed trousers, a white sheer New Look shirt, a faux fur gilet from Canada, and my Jeffrey Campbell Climber boots, the cross studs are from Asos and the shirt pins are vintage.

I found these shirt collar pins in my mum’s vintage jewellery and immediately had to borrow them. They instantly give any shirt a unique twist and after seeing the Zara shirt with collar detailing on Fashion Toast it gave me even more reason to wear mine.

Also I dip dyed my hair purple!  It was much brighter at first but has now washed out into a lovely lilac colour. I used Paint Box purple haze and also have the pink version to try out at a later date. These colours should last anywhere between 3 and 30 washes.

I can’t wait for tomorrow as I have a Uni trip to London and then the Motel and Glossy Box event in the evening J

And to top off the week my family are coming up to Nottingham this weekend to visit me J

Hope everyone is having a great week !
