Candyfloss and sorrys.

Hello guys! It has been almost a month to the day since I last posted on here, and I am SORRY! I AM A TERRIBLE HUMAN PERSON WITH A BLOG. There is no real reason why I haven't, I have just been in a completely different, I don't know, mindset or something since being in Sheffield. But I'm back home now, and will be posting a lot more often!
I bought this skirt a few days before I left for Sheffield in September in Topshop, and I am so in love with it. It feels like wearing a skirt made from pillowy layers of marshmallow or candyfloss, so floaty and ethereal. I LOVE IT. Pastel feminist actualities of wearing pink fluffy things and biting people's heads off. Anyway, yeah, I just really love this skirt! Equally beautiful is the fact that it was £15 reduced from like £38.
The reasons I haven't been blogging that much (or at all, really) while I've been at Sheffield are quite hard to pinpoint. It's a completely different way of living, I cook for myself, take up a lot of time washing, cleaning and shopping for food, and then I have work on top of that so I don't have as much spare time as I used to. Also, it just hasn't really been at the forefront of my mind as I've been trying to, you know, be ~sociable~ and everything with my flatmates and other people. I really do like university, but it is an odd experience. It kind of tiptoes the line between real life, adolescent life and adult life. (If there can even be a line between three things? Whatever). I am taking my camera back with me when I go home in January, so that when I do want to post (and I will), I can. Sorry, must try harder!
Perfect skirt of perfect chiffon perfectness.
I kind of love how long my roots are, I think it's really funny. I'm hoping they make me look a bit like Madonna, or Marina & the Diamonds (she says hopefully). My hair has miraculously gone a white/platinum blonde colour instead of its usual yellow nightmare, which I love. Despite saying how much I love my roots and my hair right now, I'm getting it cut, bleached & dyed this week, so it's goodbye again to this hair for a while.
Blue frilly socks to sort of match the pink frilly skirt. My necklace had flowers on in these exact shades (as well as cream), but unfortunately I didn't get a picture of them as I was in a bit of a hurry. I wore this outfit to meet up with my two best friends from home, which was lovely as we had a really great night. I hadn't seen them both in aeons, so it was brilliant to catch up again. It's wonderful to have people that you can fall right back into step with after such a long time.

  6. wow wow wow that skirt is amazing! I've been desperately searching etsy for the perfect fluffy skirt. I know exactly how you feel about college being a strange transition period. I'm not sure what to make of it.

  14. That skirt is so ethereal and lovely. I love how you lean towards pastels and creams and whites. Also, I think we all take lapses from blogging from time to time, no big deal. ANd the roots look cool, it's like the opposite of dip-dying, a differentiation in colour on the top, rather than at the ends. :D
