H&M STUDIO AW15

IT'S HEREE. The sneaky tidbits on Twitter have been driving me mental! 

My views..bit of a weird collection overall I'd say. Really mix of products but there were some beautiful pieces and I want absolutely everything in that green chevron print. I know maxi skirts aren't appropriate for winter but that one is top of my list..let's hope it hits stores early? Below are my favourite looks, what did you reckon about the collection?

When Kimono Dreams Come True.

WHEN KIMONO DREAMS COME TRUE.

Style-wise, I love something long, floaty, and a bit pointless. Which is why kimonos make me so happy. I've had this River Island one on my Polyvore for months, and stare at it sadly whenever I go in to store. I even tried it on once, to torment myself I imagine, as I couldn't justify buying it. 

HOWEVER when I got an email saying it had gone on sale, I couldn't move fast enough. I was at a family BBQ, mid conversation and I just legged it to a corner to buy it without disruption. Rude? Yes. Necessary? Even more yes. Can't say I regret it.

Please excuse my hair, my highlights are overdue and instead of getting them done I went on a pre-holiday clothing and tanning oil spree. I did find some perfect black sandals after years of hunting (Primark, below) so my hair will just have to wait. I'm still pretending that one day I'll be brave and cut it all off. Not going to lie, it also just needs a good wash. An outfit picture wasn't in my plan for today (it never is) and had I known I'd probably have at least put a bit more dry shampoo into it.

Please also excuse my thighs. Despite living off salads pre holiday they have refused to shrink.

Mermaid Dreams.

MERMAID DREAMS.

Why are so many of my posts about mermaids? I can't really explain my dream of being a mermaid. I partly blame the Little Mermaid; as the only redheaded Disney princess she probably gave me hope that I'd find a prince, even while I grew more ginger by the day. Then I saw Daryl Hannah in Splash and that was that. 

I don't understand it, since I hate having a wet face and the feeling of wet hair on my neck makes me well twitchy and cross. As you can imagine, I'm a dream to go on holiday with.

Anyway, last time I reverted to being five and plaited my hair before I went to bed, a friend told me the next day that I had mermaid hair. I nearly kissed her. So now I do it regularly and I wake up feeling a bit closer to the mermaid dream. So today I finished the feeling off with a fishtail little skirt. I'm only one step away from throwing myself in the bath fully clothed to see if I grow a tail.

I've also found the perfect lilac jumper, but we'll go into my confused feelings for lilac another day.
