everybody's somebody's fool

shirt, tie dye socks - diy, high waisted shorts - topshop (gift), shoes - doc martens, earrings - primark

This is the outfit that I wore to the carboot I wrote about in my last post. It seems like ages ago now, but I've been spreading out the outfit posts because I now don't have a tripod to use. This is the last lot of outfit photos I have so fingers crossed I have a new tripod soon! Else I might have to resort to having to pose in front of an actual person instead of a camera on a stick - the horror!

I tie dyed these socks a while ago then realised that they were much easier to wear when they were cream. But I've worn them with one outfit now, so it's fine! I don't wear shorts very often any more, but I really like the fit of these Topshop ones. My housemate gave me them as they were too big for her. Free Topshop shorts - score!

Hopefully I will be back soon with a more up-to-date outfit including my new glasses. It feels wrong posting an outfit post featuring bare legs when there's a huge storm outside!

I've switched Twitter accounts - please follow me here! And now onto the post...

  

shirt - charity shop/ diy, bird patches - ebay, jacket - primark, riding pants - american apparel, socks - primark, creepers - pj shoes, ring - dixi (present), earring - diy

This outfit includes two of my recent DIYs. I ordered the bird patches off eBay around a month ago when I was suddenly struck with inspiration one afternoon at work, but they'd been sitting in a drawer since they'd arrived because I couldn't face the effort of sewing them on. However, rather unusually in my experience, the iron actually fully stuck the patch onto my shirt so no sewing required! I also managed to melt a bit of my carpet in the process (don't tell the landlord). I'm really pleased with the outcome and may have to tattoo some of my other clothes too! The other DIY is my cross earring. I'd had a necklace for ages but never worn it, so the other day I made this, plus two similar earrings out of it. 

I thought the bird claw ring was quite fitting with this outfit! I couldn't get a good photos of it but I've put the link above. There was also a bird showing when my jacket was covering up the shirt, don't you worry:

Now that one I did have to sew on!

I've made two more shoes purchases this week, oops, this pair of fake Creepers being one of them. I don't usually like buying fakes but I had £20 birthday money left and these were £19 so I couldn't really leave them behind, could I?! The other pair I bought were some navy Doc Marten shoes, which I got with an Amazon voucher that I got for my birthday. Spending money doesn't count if it's birthday money.

Have a good weekend!
