Bag lust

Is £68 too much to spend on a bag?
This questIon has been replaying in my mind over and over. After jumping on the satchel trend earlier this year, I now have two brown satchels and a brown doctors bag. I use them to death (and rotate) but I now could really do with a bright bag.

I love mulberry's new green lovelies, but failed to find a remote lookalike. Red was an option, but I've just bought a lovely rust cardigan from H&M so that's a no.
So, it's between mustard and cobalt blue.

This one from topshop, caught my eye;

But this, this was love at first sight.

I bought a rucksack for school from there in Florida but I ADORE this. I might have to dip into my paper round savings :)
Is it too much?

Shoe lust

After a day of drawing Harry potter stills I'm knackered but had to show you these stunning Miu Miu heels. I can't even upload an image but gold, silver, black, strappy, bowed, I will take any.
Thanks :)
More on Miu Miu tomorrow,

And relax...

Stressful past few weeks. After returning from Florida, as I said, I got that job and have now quit (£300 later, hello new season!) to catch up on school work :( ah well, needs must.
GCSE results day today. I am only in yr10 so didn't ge them all but I'm thankful I know where I stand for going back in sept. Got an A in history which I am most happy about, getting that was stressful to say the least.
Anyway, thought I'd share my new season buys.
Been wanting a white shirt for a while now, and after weeks of searching (honestly) I have found it. It's this number from asos:
Planning on pairing it with black/ navy skinnies and layering under jumpers so the collar pokes out. I loved the Paul Smith catwalk:
The styling, hair and glasses are unusual enough to be cool, yet casual and be not intimidating.
Swapping skinnies for a tartan skirt and loosely tucking in the shirt nods to heritage too, or layered under a slinky jersey mini to nod to the 60's, a la the gorgeous Mila Kunis in this months Glamour:



As always,

There's a first for everything

Today I spent my first day in my first paid job. I washed dogs, but you have to start somewhere?
Unfortunately, how I wish to dress and indulge in dressing is beyond my time and money limits, as my current focus in life is more mitosis than miu miu s/s'11 but I decided to start blogging as a way of expressing my fashion opinions for free. I am undoubtedly a lover of what could be called 'wearable' fashion and the pretty. I am aware that this is not always designers intention but just because I am partial to chiffon it does not mean i cannot appreciate androgyny.
I'm writing this on an iPad at almost midnight under a bedcover because I had trouble sleeping last night due to a head full of ideas.
Will find time to include interesting stuff tomorrow, promise (including pretty pictures!)
Due to previous references of age post timings will vary and I apologise in advance.

But hey, I'm only 15 and have barely started!
As always,
Kerry xx
