"too glam to give a damn"

The best thing about reading, is the escape. When the book you're reading is so wonderfully written that you are involved. When you imagine the characters and get attached and they each have their own personal voice as you read. There is something that extra bit special about a book that is a little worn with turned corners and a bent back spine. It is such a wonderful pass time.

Throwing on a pair of boots and sunglasses in the same outfit, just didn't seem right. However with our unpredictable weather it turned out to be the correct choice. With the sun tearing its way through the clouds, my jacket seemed a little unnecessary. Putting on my sunglasses, I finally felt detached from winter. For once the sun shared some warmth. However the mud coated, puddled ground suggested that boots were the best option.

I must say, t-shirt weather is definitely the best. This slogan tee caught my eye due to it's sassy caption. I mean, "too glam to give a damn" gets straight to the point. The black velvet 3D lettering, stands out on the simplistic grey and white striped background, causing a simple yet bold casual tee. This is one of the only slogan tee's in my wardrobe but it has definitely made me fall back in love with them. With River Island managing to apply a quote to almost all their tops lately, I will be keeping my eyes peeled for another statement that 'says it all'.

If you haven't got a leather skirt in your clothing collection then I advise you add one as soon as possible. With the endless different outfit combinations you can create, I promise you it will be a piece you can wear all year round. There is something so effortlessly wonderful about an A-line shaped skirt and something even more intriguing when it is a 'leather look'. This is an item that has stayed on trend for the past couple of years and will definitely continue to stay strong in the fashion world. I mean, it may just be me but I love leather. When worn correctly it can be such a sleek look.

It was the finishing touches that completed this look in my opinion. From the navy blue boyfriend jacket to the yellow camera printed cup, they all added that extra little bit of detail. I absolutely love the fit of my boyfriend jacket, loose yet structured and the deep blue colour causes it to stand out against my pretty dull colour pallet. Accompanied by a square handbag, which is extremely practical. Perfect for those girls that like to carry everything from makeup wipes to hand gel, reading glasses to sweets (I literally fit as much in, just in case something happens). The wonderful camera print cup is more of a novelty really but I thought it worked really well due to the quirky slogan tee. To finish, my tortoise shell sunglasses and a copy of "Paper Towns" by John Green to escape into.

Wrapping my hair around the straighteners, the curls start to form, flicking here there and everywhere. Fastened in place with a couple of spritz of hairspray. For once I have made an effort with my hair, compared to the usual 7 day a week straight look. Of course I apply my everyday eye set up-pencil underneath, gel on top with a flick (attempted approx 10 times on my right eye to match my left) and mascara. Finishing the look by colouring my lips in, with a gorgeous deep shade. As I exit the house, I am excited because finally one month later I have found the time and had the weather to go out and get some images!
