Well technically I wore this yesterday but whatever ;p
My favorite season (for fashion) is definately, without doubt, A/W. I just love the colours, the warmth, the comfort, everything! One of my favorte trends for this season is the skull print, the berry tones, and creepers! They are so comfortable and give me a bit of height too (I am only 5"4) plus its easy to find a pair to suit you seeing as they're EVERYWHERE! This pair I got for €15 too! My scarf I got on eBay for €1.70 :p It did take a while to arrive however, it came from Hong Kong, but the quality is surpisingly good.
Below I leave you with my outfit. (I couldn't get a good all-in-one picture, unfortunately)

So I was blog searching the other day and came across http://emilydenisephotography.com/blog ,who had a fantastic idea for these nails. I simply changed the colour, but they're quite easy to recreate, just a bit time consuming.
Im a nail art fanatic! I recently ordred some dotting tools and China Glaze nail varnish off eBay (as I heard American brands like that are fab) so I cant wait for them to arrive! I actually set up a business but only had two customers ;p

I was recently looking at some other crafty, fashion blogs and found a tutorial for studded heels (found at hellocrissey.com if you are interested).
So I thought, why not jazz up my old converse? (Not real, by the way)
You will need;
- converse
- rhinestones
- super glue (or strong craft glue)
- pritt stick
- pencil (with an eraser on one end)
*Step 1: prepare your rhinestones so that they are the correct way up
*Step 2: make sure the top of our converse are clean!
*Step 3: gently rub the top of the pencil (the eraser on top) with pritt stick so it is tacky.
*Step 4: cover the area you want to stick rhinestones on (but not all at once) with super glue
*Step 5: pick up a rhinestone with the pencil-eraser and apply. Press down firmly.
*Step 6: repeat until the entire top of your converse is covered in rhinestones!
I unfortunately ran out of rhinestones (must buy some on eBay when I get the chance!) so I couldn't do around the sides too, but you can if you wish. I also used multi-coloured rhinestones but you can choose one set it colour if that's what you'd prefer! Remember, they are YOUR shoes so you can decorate them whatever way you want.
OH and try use a cheap or old pair of converse so you don't get in trouble for using an expensive pair ;p Ask for permission if you must/are young.
Next time, Ill post some nail tutorials and maybe some of my drawings :)

Ok so EVEN THOUGH I went to see Lady Gaga like 3 weeks ago I still thought I'd share some pictures seeing as it was frickin' amazing! She is like my all time favorite person ok, so I was elated when I won the tickets. Our seats were sooo high up but it was still the best concert I've ever been to! I took alot of pictures but here are the best few;
By the way, I'm sorry for not posting. Yes I realise I'm practically talking to myself as I have NO FOLLOWERS but whatever. I will be more active and will post some better, non self-centered things soon, sigh sigh.
