Black & White

I've been so busy over the last week revising for my history and economics exams. Hopefully I did ok - but I've got another history one on monday! Its really annoying having to be inside on the sunniest days in the year - although I've been getting quite bad hayfever so I suppose staying inside is the better option.

My outfit today was very simple - just a white t-shirt and a black skirt with some necklaces. I slightly modified the t-shirt though, by cutting off the collar and pinning up the sleeves. I think a lot of my t-shirts will be getting this treatment for the summer! The black skirt is a bit of an American Apparel copy, from Topshop, but bought on eBay. You can't really see the detail in the photos but it has slouchy pockets and a gathered waist.

I was tagged to do this quiz the other day by Hannah, who writes one of my favourite blogs: Hello Mr Fox. Definitely check it out if you haven't already!

1. What is your current obsession? Probably finding bargains in charity shops! I can’t walk past one without going in.

2. What is your weirdest obsession? I love looking at things from the past; 80s CD covers, 60s fashion icons, 70s magazines, tights packets…

3. What do you see outside your window? A robin!

4. What is your favourite colour? All shades of green, except turquoise.

7. What would you like to learn how to do? I’d love to be able to play my ukulele better. It’s such a fun instrument!

The rules state that this tag is to be passed on to eight other bloggers - but I pass this on to anyone who wants to do the tag!
