Nobody loved Laura. Just us.

Anyone else a Twin Peaks fan, I hope so otherwise I will seem crazy? My favourite character is Audrey Horne (and Shelly, oh! oh! maybe the log lady too) so I spent a day posing as her, without the cigarettes. I also have the eyebrow mole so we are pretty much the same person... Anyway, these photos were taken at an old abandoned saw mill in our area, so as sad as it is, I dressed up for a day out. Shameless.

I got this TBA skirt a while ago. I heart TBA, but where did they go!?!?! I think the quality of their items and the fact that all their items are made of such nice fabrics, almost justifys their prices. Does anyone know where you can get TBA online anymore? I know they pulled out of ASOS and Urban Outfitters, maybe I'll just have to frequent eBay.

How cute are these Saddle shoes? I can't wear them like Rory Gilmore and they make my feet look huge (like boats) but they are fun regardless.

Anyway, here is a Bastille song about the main (maybe not main as she is dead in the pilot) character. It's a good song, and people like Bastille.

White Tutu Skirt 3 ways

So, I bought this skirt of eBay recently as I am huge sucker for a skirt with a good spinning radius and I thought I would share three different ways that I would wear it, maybe in the summer since not one of these outfits have sleeves...

Outfit one:

 (Skirt: eBay, Top: Free People, Belt: Peter Jensen, Hairband: Topshop (but check etsy), Wedges: Topshop, Socks: ASOS, Above Knuckle ring: Fashionologie)

Outfit Two:

(Skirt: eBay, Flag tee: Forever21, Belt: Karl Lagerfeld, Shoes: Topshop Unique, Gypsy hoops: Primark)

Outfit Three:

(Skirt: eBay, Strange combat vest thing: ASOS, Platforms: Marni x H&M, Necklace: House of Harlow, Lipstick: Mac "Cyber") 

This skirt is contagiously fun, maybe too much fun. Boyfriend was getting increasingly frustrated at my inability to stay still while taking these pictures (Sorry for all the blurs, but if you have ever had a skirt like this you will understand). This skirt is a bit of a statement in itself so making each outfit look really different was a challenge, but did you enjoy seeing my "styling" of the skirt with three different tops...? Which is your favourite?

My Favourite Things

 1. Winter days wasted away in bed in cozy knitted socks. A simple pleasure, but I love giant knitted socks, preferably knee high. They are cozy, wintery and cute. These are from Free People and are huge! They also aren't itchy which is a major plus for me! These socks also make for good welly socks, keeping your toes warm!

 2. Weekend sewing. So, made this super ugly hat today. I will have a DIY tutorial up soon hopefully. Even my sister likes this hat, which is a big complement so I am pretty excited. She is my biggest critic.

3. My favourite thing of the week? My Christmas tree.  He is quite a beauty, and he makes the house smell lovely. I love putting up the Christmas decorations (hate taking them down though), I am so controlling when it comes to decorating the tree so I am mostly left to do it by myself. People just do it wrong! I also thought I would extend this by going through my three favourite Christmas decorations of the year.

Gingerbread-men bauble from Liberty's of London. I bought this for my mum, I buy her a new Christmas decoration each year and fell in love with this glittered creation. I added a bow from Liberty ribbon at the top too. If I was up to me every Christmas decoration would have a bow at the top, bit naff and over the top but I don't care!!

 Monsieur Pig. He was hand made from a craft fair. Isn't he a cutie?! We bought this for my dad, don't think too much into it. He just likes pigs.

Mr Narwhal, was from Anthropologie, my sister got him last year and he is so sweet, if not a bit weighty so you need a sturdy branch for him to feature on. Kinda loving this walrus from this years selection!

Has everyone got their Christmas tree up yet? Where have you seen the best decorations this year?
