Boy Street Style Grunge

I don't know whether its just me being stuck in my ways but at the minute I'm absolutely loving this sorta street style where girls can totally dress down and rock this boyish look. I've always been the sort to wear oversized jumpers and printed tees, whether it was on trend or not. However, now I'm more than satisfied that it is now considered socially acceptable to wear such clothing. Its always a plus point when you and you boyfriend have a similiar style as well - you know what that means...sharing clothes!

Street Style, Ombre and Girl Problems!

So, as you all know I am a massive fan of the brand 'The Ragged Priest'. I've previously written a post about it. The Ragged Priest is an independent street style brand which I love.  Anyway, my boyfriend being the wonderful person he is,  bought me a beanie hat and a dress from there. I've wanted this beanie for ages so I was dead happy when he got me this. The dress, I also love. It is half denim, half leather. The pictures maybe deceiving but this dress is actually really tight around my ass!!! - but cause I love it so much, I'll make it fit. The only trouble with The Ragged Priest is that the sizing is a 'one size fits all' and is supposed to fit a size 6-12 and me being a 10, well I do struggle!

I just thought I'd upload that picture as it really shows off my ombre hair and brings out the colour and I thought it looked pretty cool - however I'll let you be the judge of that.

Then yesterday I took a quick detour to Asda to get a few things for tea, but as per I got distracted and ended up getting some Disney Princess Bubble Bath (Ooops) - girl problems ey. I also purchased a box of Fruit Loops as I always used to see these on American TV programmes and wanted to try them. They taste amaze, no joke. Oh and I also decided to get The Life Of Pi book because I recently went to see the film at the cinema and I loved it.
mwah. xo

What i've been up to...

 Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've been extremely busy working etc... So I thought I'd just tell all you pretty people what I've been up to recently!!!! The other week I bought a new coat (as shown in the picture) which I bought from the Ragged Priest. I previously wrote a post about the brand because I'm a massive fan of it so I was really excited to buy this coat as it is going to play a staple part in my wardrobe over winter. I love this style of it, the fur makes it so cosy and of course the studs and sewn on denim just give it that extra edge...I've had loads of people comment on the coat thinking that I'd customized it my self because they thought it looked really cool!

The puppy in the photo is called Biscuit, he is such a cutie! We bought him for my dad as a Christmas/Birthday present as he had been hassling us for ages saying that he wanted a puppy so we took it up for him as a suprise. He is such a lovely dog with sooooo much energy. (Credits for me for thinking of the cute name for him :-D).

Obviously last weekend was Halloween weekend, well its actually today but still. I worked in a Bar/Club and we threw our Halloween Party on Saturday in which everybody dressed up. I decided to go as a Zombie Bride!

Then today I have been panning my way through that pile of books as I am currently in the midst of researching for my extended project that I'm doing. To some of you it may look tedious, but I love reading so it wasn't a chore at all; in fact it was quite therapeutic, as well as educational! It also reminded me how much I had been abandoning the books on my shelf and that I really should start reading on more of a regular basis again. Anyways, I hope you all had a good weekend and managed to get dressed up as a freak - I did and thoroughly enjoyed the process. :-) Hit me with your comments, love hearing from you all!!!! xo

Confession.

I'll be the first to admit. I'll hold my hands up and confess that yes I am in fact - a sucker for leather and studs. We all have that one fashion obsession that we just want to re-live forever and this is mine. Whenever wandering aimlessly around shopping centres I almost have anything leather and studs on some sort of radar and if I come across anything fitting that description - I have to purchase. I'm totally into the rock/gothic look, its edgy and can add a great element to any outfit. Sometimes I go all out and flaunt a grunge ensemble, other days I'm a pastel princess. It entirely depends what mood I'm in, however I would say this sort of clothing and shoes is my 'safe place' and what I feel most comfortable in. I suppose that's the thing with fashion, the meaning of the word is so vague and there are so many options. Probably the reason why everybody has caught the bug, but can you blame us? 

The Ragged Priest

Ok so i recently discovered this fierce new brand: The Ragged Priest. Any closet fashionistas, lovers’ of grunge and all things leather will absolute worship this brand. The Ragged Priest quickly emerged and became more well known when it collaborated with Topshop and began to sell their products on there. Its not just us bloggers’ who have fallen in love with them, looks like the celebrities have caught on with the hype - as Rihanna and Jessie J have recently been snapped sporting the attire.
The Ragged Priest focuses very much on re-working vintage leather and denim by customising the garments with studs and various other embellishments. As well as being a wardrobe toughening brand, the products are affordable but will guarantee to set you aside from the crowd. What more could you want from a brand? - affordable fashion which is fierce and grunge heaven! It will save your poor little hands from getting blisters studding your vintage leather biker and spending hours on end perfecting the ideal look. I can almost smell the leather from here! Grab yourself a new staple item and make a new statement wardrobe quickly or i will!
