ahoy!

I thought I'd post it before it got too far away from Halloween... Last week was my course's Halloween party and in true Rose Tinted Uncertainty fashion I went as a 1940s pin up sailor. I really wish I had a good picture of the whole dress because it is indeed my favourite dress. I'm sure I will make an excuse to wear it again and then there will be photos, I promise.

Anyway I thought you'd all be interested in my attempt at victory rolls. Tricky little buggers indeed! Mountains of hairspray and patience were used. I was happy with the results though and I am planning on mastering the art so I can wear my hair like this more often (without the teeny sailor hat of course). I also had little white gloves as well... I looked awfully cute!

Back in college a week now and I am trying hard to keep posting. The blog is my baby after all, a fat, hungry baby that needs to be fed. I took these photos during the week but only getting round to posting them now. If I can keep to at least one outfit post a week (along with all the other posts of course) I will be pleased. Here I am trying to make what is clearly a summer dress more "September appropriate" with black accessories. I think it works alright. I felt good walking around in it and that's good enough for me.

Fourth year is proving difficult and I wanna get stuck in early to keep my head above water (no pun intended seeing as I am wearing an anchor dress). Do not worry though (I know you are) I will still be around, posting and rambling like always.

Dress/ Shoes: Penneys

Belt: River Island

Tights: Dunnes

College projects have taken over my life and even though I have a love affair with the fitted form I've noticed myself throwing on my giant denim shirt when doing college work. It's soft, comfy, loose and so easy going. I don't have to worry about fixing myself every 5 minutes.

So right now I am dreaming (instead of finishing off my menu) of loose fitted dress that can be worn with converse, chunky socks and a messy beehive ponytail (don't ask, its the hairstyle I've been lusting after for awhile).

Sadly I do not have the funds to shop online or the spare time to snoop out Penneys so I will have to do with my beloved denim shirt. It is being worn again tomorrow (with floral hot pants and tights).

Another want, another need...

I wanna do some screen prints in these bad boys! Wear these in college, they are too cool to wear out.

Seriously want to wear more heels to college and these would do just fine...

Topshop send me these, please and thank you.
