Lookbook / Chictopia

So it may look that over night I've fought this illness and my heath has improved greatly. Unfortunately not, I'm still sat in PJs, with messy hair and not a hint of make up in sight. These pics were taken the day before i found myself unable to move, breathe or talk. But after asking on Twitter whether you'd like to see these pics, i had a well rounded yes. I'm wearing a primark (obviously) boys jumper that Matt got me for Christmas. As soon as a i saw it i knew it had to be mine and it was only £3! I can't say I'm a massive fan of the whole 'Animal' craze, i don't own a single item of clothing with some kind of print on it. But this jumper is so lovely, and really comfy which makes it an even better bargin!

I'm really sorry to say that I've not sorted out any scrabble orders, nor gone through my emails about them. I will however get on to it as soon as i feel better. I haven't forgotten about you. I've also not managed to do any uni work, and I've missed one deadline. I'm really hoping my tutor will account for the fact I've not been very well but you never know. She seems to hand extensions out to the same people for like no reason. But whatever, it's my own fault for leaving things till the last minute i guess.

I've been hunting high and low for these shoes and they were nearly mine yesterday when i started bidding on a pair on Ebay however, they went for a stupid price that just wasn't worth it. There's another pair on there, and I'm really tempted to buy them but i just can't seem to get over the fact they were only £20 in the sale. If anyone has a size 5 in their local Topshop please please let me know! I need them in my life! I have however treated myself to this little beauty with the help of Simones NUS card number. I've wanted a cape for so long, and I'm so happy i will now own one! Granted it's a little more than what I'd usually pay, but like I've mentioned before I've not treated myself in so long.

Myself and Matt have watched a lot of films these past few weeks, with it being the holidays and both being vegetables on the sofa. To name a few... Salt, Kick Ass, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Deja Vu and The Way Back at the cinema on Monday. We'll probably end up watching a Studio Ghibli film at some point this weekend too.

As for now, im going to be a geek and watch Star Wars drink more tea and eat another hand full of Jaffa cakes !

  9. I love that jumper. I have a love hate relationship with guys clothing- it's so comfy and jumpers in particular seem such a great fit, but unlike every other woman on the planet I can't seem to find guys shirts that fit me the way I want them too. I think it may be as my mum calls it "too much tits and arse" problem.

    Hope you get better soon, it's super miserable, I'm in my office, on my own, on hold with a service provider and starting to go down hill again. IT SUCKS!

  14. hey victoria! this is sort of a weird comment but I was reading Niotillfem (Sandra's blog) last night and I thought I should show it to you! Sandra bought those shoes and said "The world's finest heels from Topshop, which is impossible to walk in, I discovered later."

  31. I love Studio Ghibli films (: They're so fun! I love this jumper - men's jumpers always fit so nicely! It's a shame about the gorgeous shoes but I think sometimes things are just too pricey to be worth it. Your new cape looks beautiful though. I'm rather jealous. Hope you're back to 100% soon. Nice new layout too!
