Varsity Blues

Maybe I'm totally jumping on the bandwagon or maybe it's because I'm becoming more of a fitness freak with my training for a half marathon, because all I want to wear these days is sportswear.
It's a trend that's always been lurking behind the sports luxe and 90s trends seen previous years. I think mainly because it's taken a while for the high street to perfect this look. Previously I thought the bomber jackets were rather sleazy/too colourful for my emo wardrobe and whenever I saw a raglan top I just thought of Zac Efron in High School Musical (anybody else?!). However these five pieces definitely swayed me towards the Varsity trend as they are staple pieces that can be styled in a sporty yet edgy way with the demure colours and not too 'extra from High School Musical':

1. ASOS 'E' beanie - £10
2. Zara 'Black & White' Sweatshirt - £19.99
3. Topshop Raglan Sleeve Dress - £26
4. Topshop Premium Varsity Bomber Jacket - £60 (hefty price, but such an amazing jacket!)
5. Converse Leather Hi Black Mono - £59.99

Hope you like! Are you enjoying the Varsity trend is it 'so 2011' for you?

Music Monday's

So the uni OOTD failed...oops! I was quite unwell last week so I just threw on whatever was clean and hardly stylish to uni, therefore there was no point on posting them on here.
Instead today I bring you Music Monday. I always liked Lil Wayne and left the album playing on Spotify and this is definitely my new (depsite it being fairly old) favourite song:

Hope you like it too?

Finally, here's a photo of Alicia and I at a Black and White party, perfect occasion to wear my new Motel dress!

OOTD - Day at uni

Well well well, here is a long overdue OOTD.
I think this week (awkwardly starting on Tuesday) I will try and take a photo of what I wear to uni each day, a sort of 'university lookbook' we can call it.
So this is what I wore for my long hard day of one lecture hahaha...

 

 

awkward photo...

Dogtooth Coat - Oasis
Bag - Zara
Boots - Urban Outfitters
Supercosy Tights - Primark
Polka dot skirt - Monki
Polo neck jumper - charity shop
Belt - Primark
Bobble beanie hat - Oasis
Gold band rings - set from H&M
Gold chain necklace - ASOS
Nail varnish - Nail Inc 'London' + glitter

If you guys haven't picked up a pair of Primark's Supercosy tights, I urge you to. They are so soft with their fleece lining and really protect me from the Edinburgh chill!

Hope you like my OOTD today!
