Not ur baby

Omg guys I finally finished secondary school the other day!!! I have never been more relieved to finish anything in my life and I am now super excited for college \(^-^)/
I just wanted to share my outfit as I am feeling especially cute today. The top, jeans and clutch are all from Topshop, the necklace is gifted, and the oversized shirt is thrifted. I am literally in love with this metallic cami as it is really comfortable and drapes well. I like how you can dress it down during the day or wear it with some bomb ass skinny jeans and heels.





I brought this clutch the other day for my prom and it was love at first sight (can you tell that I love pastel pink yet???). I'd been on the look out for pastel pink pieces for a while now so I was really glad to find this in the last chance to buy section at Topshop. On the theme of pink, I would love it if you could check out my tumblr as it is currently looking pretty damn fresh. I've gathered a load of inspiration from my tumblr that kind of matches this aesthetic.

UTOPIA

I know that Utopia came out ages ago but I only just got round to watching it and I'm seriously obsessed. I've always been a fan of dystopia but I have to say Utopia is in a WHOLE OTHER UNIVERSE. Everything about it is immaculate, the over-saturated colours, the plot and don't even get me started on the soundtrack. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who can stomach the gore and violence (of which there is a lot).
I wanted to share some screen caps to allow you to appreciate the genius and unsettling beauty of the cinematography (i've left out the gore btw). I kind of feel like I could go into a career in cinematography but tbh I have no idea how difficult that would be???¿
The plot centres around the Network, a powerful shadow organisation, and their plan to sterilise the human race. A group of unlikely allies try to fight the Network and the two series follow their attempts. I have to say my absolute favourite character is Jessica Hyde; she is literally the biggest pyscho bad-ass ever. I don't really want to say much else in case I give anything away for those of you who haven't watched it but I'd love to hear the thoughts of anyone who has seen it.





I was very sad to discover that a third series of Utopia was cancelled, especially as I'd binge watched all the episodes wayyyy to quickly. But anyway. I've started watching Channel 4's new series, Humans, which has a similar feel to Utopia. There's only been one episode, and so far I'm not sure how it's going to develop, but I think it should be good.






In other news, I only have one exam left before I'm done with school! I keep getting kind of emotional about it tbh but I'm really looking forward to college so...

AW 15


I'm back. Again. Oops sorry I always go ages without posting. Anyway, my exams are starting in three weeks and I'm forever wasting all my energy on trying to stay sane and not panicking (why am i doing so many subjects?!?). Even right now I am procrastinating by posting when I should be revising english literature. AGHHHHHHHHHH oh well.

Recently I've had this overwhelming desire to buy lots of beautiful clothes but every time I look in my wardrobe I don't know what to wear. I really want to get one of those big overcoats because I think they make every outfit look like 500x classier. You could literally go out wearing your pyjamas with one of those coats and you'd still look high end. *sighs*
So I did what any girl would do in my situation and looked at catwalk collections to make myself even more depressed. Its a bit late but I only just discovered the AW 15 collections AND THEY ARE JUST SO PERFECT. Miu Miu's coats are literally heavenly and I love how they've been teamed with tweed mini skirts. This is the kind of level of sophisticated I want to embody but I have no idea how since their clothes are wayy out of my price range. I love how Miu Miu, Prada and Dior have all combined pastels with tweeds in their collections. It's definitely inspired me to wear my tartan skirt more often.

In other news, my recent obsessions have been Gershwin's 'Rhapsody in Blue', Haruki Murakami's 'The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle' and Depeche Mode's greatest hits.

For all those other poor souls out there with exams coming up, good luck! We can make it.
