Favourite Things: Graduation Edition

Well, on Friday I graduated. I know can be one of those people who add their degree titles at the end of their email signature. I could be, but I won't. Although I didn't and I don't have that many feelings about graduation (it just kind of crept up on me!) I felt I should still share some pictures. All that I was grateful for was that I did not fall over, my shoes were not the most sensible, but they were a compromise, I was considering wearing these babies.

Although I wasn't that psyched about my own graduation I was so happy to see my best friend graduate. She deserves everything and more and looked beautiful like always! So, to my wifie, congratulations, but sorry your present is late.

Finally, My university- thank you for being such a beautiful place to study and pose in front of on Friday.  However, Glasgow weather, seriously, you suck- rain on graduation??? These pictures were not taken on the day of Graduation as it resembled a drunk ant hill.

Congratualtions to anyone else who has graduated recently!

Gonna wash my bones in the Atlantic shore

The General Specific: Band of Horses 

(Dress: Topshop with sleeves taken off, ugly feet: posers own) #teenvogue

I found this dress in my cupboard a few weeks ago having never worn it. I bought in Topshop sale, I have this strange feelings for clothes that are left in sale for weeks and weeks, homeless and unwanted. Working in Topshop did nothing if not amass a section of my wardrobe accumulated due to my feminine feelings for rejected clothing. But when I rediscovered it again and tried it on I still felt weird in it. It originally had fussy sleeves that made it look a bit, well cheap. So I just grabbed the stitch ripper and took them off. Looks a bit more balanced now. I might have to revisit some of my other sale rejects and see if I can love them a bit more.

P.S. sorry for my blogging absence- balancing a full time job with general life is proving difficult. However, I graduate on Friday! Exciting, but I'll attempt to schedule a post for Thursday, so see you then!

Against Privacy

 

Cold War Kids: Against Privacy

(Ee tee: American Apparel, botanic shorts: Forever21, Shoes: H&M, Purse: Prada (oh, so old- strap came off twice...) #teenvogue

So many crotch shots and leg showcasing, sorry guys, I did refrain from uploading the sneaky bum pictures Stuart took. This outfit was not meant for the blogosphere but how pretty is this forest? It's PINK! Moving on, these shorts are great, a measly £12 I think and the quality is great and the pattern is all kinds of rad. Also, can't believe it took me this long to get this bag on here. It has to be the scabbiest Prada in history. It is at least 3rd hand and my first designer item. Perfect size and housed my geography folder for many a year in secondary school. To you Mr Faithful Prada.
