These pictures were taken on campus, me and James found a lovely wooded area that only dog walkers seem to visit. I'm going to keep it in mind for next time I want to go for a picnic! This outfit is all vintage, apart from my accessories. I bought the skirt from a vintage shop in Amsterdam, my top is from the vintage fair in York, the jacket is vintage from ebay (which I altered to my size) and my

I really love crazy glasses. The bigger, and the more extravagant, the better! Nothing reminds me more of summer than a huge pair of colourful sunglasses. Most of the time, I wear big round glasses that make me look like a man from the 70's, but I also love cat eyes. I found these beauties looking bare and flowerless in H&M for just a pound, and they were dying for some embellishment. It's super

My local Morrison has introduced an exotic fruit and veg section, and it is SO exciting. Every time I go, I pick up something new and alien looking to try and cook with. Some experiements have been unsuccesful (the bitter gourd curry was not good) But these plantain chips were really tasty! A plantain is a large vegetable that looks like a big green bannana. It doesn't feel like a bannan though, it's

There are two things that I cannot get enough of when it comes to clothes, and those are tie dye and fringing. Maybe it's because I'm such a hippy at heart, but I just love tie dye. This dress is from ASOS Marketplace, my oversized shirt is from Purple Haze in York, my boots are New Look and my lipstick is MAC Russian Red which I've been wearing all the time. When ever I go to charity shops or vintage
