Guitar Browsing OOTD











Jeans: Topshop, Top: Vintage, Jacket: River Island, Boots: New look, Sunglasses: New look, Necklace: Topshop


 As the boredom phase of the summer holidays commences, you begin to find yourself taking every oppourtunity that you can find to get out of the house.  For this reason I decided to go with my Dad to the proffesional music technology shop to buy a new amp lead, thrilling times.

However the range of guitars was amazing, I started teaching myself to play the electric guitar in March and whilst I am pleased with my progress, I was way too intimidated to have a go on any of the models in the shop, especially as the resident metal-heads were performing hardcore rock solos the entire time.

I wore my Topshop coated jeans with this Harley Davidson tank top I bought off Depop. It will be a remarkable day when I decide to forgo some sort of leather jacket, on this occasion I went with my cropped River Island one. To switch it up a bit I decided to accessorize with a gold collar necklace to match the metal trims on these new look ankle boots.

Hope you're finding fun ways to pass the summer!

Forever 21 Sunglasses


Sunglasses are something I rarely buy as the British weather doesn't often provide enough sunshine to justify wearing them. However I was inspired by American Horror Story Coven to start wearing sunglasses more often because they just look fabulous and who gives a crap whether its hot enough.
These three pairs were all £4.90 from Forever 21 which is a price I am willing to pay, compared with the likes of Topshop who were charging around £18. The quality is really good and all three pairs suit my face which is something I struggle with when choosing sunglasses.
The first pair are in the flat top style and have blue and clear ombre frames. I really like these for a casual look as they add a sporty feel to an outfit.
The second pair are cat eye and incredibly over-sized. I will admit that I do bear a slight resemblance to a fly in these sunglasses but they are undoubtedly a statement piece. I love pairing these with a red lip for a retro look.
The final pair are these mirrored aviators, I was torn between the blue and yellow, both of which were really nice but I decided to opt for the yellow as it seems like everyone and their cat has blue mirrored sunglasses. These also produce that enticing fly-like appeal but I do really love these for casual looks. They look great paired with a leather jacket too.
Let me know your favourite style of sunglasses...
