Some new & old New Ins

Old:



Mom's cardigan with faux fur lining. SO warm!

Again my mom's old silk blouse which she's let me have 

Ruffle detail of a blouse my mother found in Tk Maxx


I bought the coat for a slight discount due to the buttons falling off (which i fixed myself) from Oasis a couple of months back. It's composed with mostly wool and some polyester, and with the fur collar which is removable I AM INLOVE. The only detail I'm not keen on, however, is the stitching along the shoulder sides, I'd have preferred it to be sewn on properly to give it more of an androgynous look, but beggars can't be choosers :P

New:







Aaand once again my mother's vintage velvet earrings...I swear I don't steal all her stuff aha



I bought this necklace from Portobello market when I went there during the half term holidays. It's my new favourite necklace, I haven't stopped wearing it since purchase! Sorry the quality's crap, my camera's dying on me. On the plus side I've found a tripod for my camera, so better outfit pictures to come!

2011 post

 Finally bought the new issue of Elle, also bought a disposable cam from Boots

 Most delicious smelling candle ever! 


Blouse from H&M 

Just finished reading this gem...bit of an anti climax towards the end but nevertheless still an amazing read!


Just some photos from the past few days... quite happy with the disposable camera; now I can take photos on the go when i'm out with friends, plus when developed the print has a kind of retro look to it which in the long run will be cheaper than a polaroid camera, so until I've saved enough for one this'll have to do.

Kisses, Aisha

My name is Trouble, my first name's A Mess





Photos of what I wore to school today. The jumper I stole from my dad, and I love the little hole detail on either side of the jumper. My tights are from Ellen Tracy and I love them! They're literally indestructible haha, you can get them for a good price at Tk Maxx. I think they're much better value compared to the cheap packs I get from Primark haha.

Have a good week...Oh God it's only Tuesday :(

Kisses, Aish

p.s check out this singer, I've been listening to her stuff all weekend

Good Lord I buy a lot of things from Tk Maxx! Well actually, it's my mom who has the good eye, everytime I go there I can never find something I like! VERY please, though, with my little rucksack find, was at the back of the handbag rail and at a MUCH cheaper price than Urban Outfitters!
The clear mascara is a pretty decent primer I guess, but for the price it was I don't really care. 

FIRST DAY of school tomorrow and I don't know what to wear D;

Have a great week... only two more days left!

Basics from New Look

Hairbands, £1.50 New Look

Cocktail dress, £25 TK Maxx

Okay a bit lame but I love this! Works like magic and smells so good :)

Anklet, $3 http://www.etsy.com/people/AAlovelysister 
Watch Rotary
Finally got rid of that cheap New Look coat and exchanged it for a few basics. The items I exchanged the coat for had to add up to £10 so I had to buy the hairbands. Ggrr.
The dress is a silk cocktail dress with a suede belt, however the garment it very delicate, I think maybe it's one of those buy-cheap-wear-it-a-few-times-then-throw-it-away items. Shame. My mother bought it for me for Eid which is a celebration for Muslims after Ramadan. Can't wait to wear it!
The watch was a present from my mom for my birthday... I ADORE it! Something I'd been wanting for a while, a classic watch.

The lady I bought the anklet from has some very cool items for sale on her Etsy.com shop, check them out!

How's your week been going so far?
Kisses, Aisha

These dreams, under my pillow

Apologies for the no show... nothing very interesting has been happening in my life recently haha. But to make it up I'm awake at 5 in the morning posting this:). The other night I went to visit my cousins and had dinner. While there I was checking out New Look's sale online and purchased this duffle coat, which is pretty similar to Topshop's coat from the A/W2010 collection . Looks rather yucky but I'll make it work haha.

Some photos of what I wore today:

Top  Old- my father's
Jeans Primark
Shoes Converses, bought from Office

Oh fickle mind

Ended up wearing this

Top Vero Moda from TK Maxx
Jeans H&M
Belt Topshop


The belt actually came with this skirt http://tinyurl.com/3lget5y which was reduced from £35 to £7! I love it because I was looking for a cheap plaited (genuine) leather belt so I got more than what I bargained for!

I also bought these two nail polishes from SUPERDRUG and picked up a beauty card aswell :)


They were £1 each! I bought a plum purple and orange coral colour and considering the price, the formula is great and dries in modest time- I am very pleased :)

What are your favourite nail polish colours?

Aisha


p.s sorry for the bad quality photos
