old and new

Jumper: Zara; Shorts: Urban Outfitters; Tights: M&S; Shoes: Bertie Boots

So I'm back at university now, for my last ever term before I graduate in July. It's starting to really hit home that I'm leaving in 6 months and everyone seems to be panicking about graduate jobs and schemes which is, quite frankly, terrifying.

I went out for some retail therapy today, I only picked up a few things, perhaps I'll do a haul post soon. I wore this Zara jumper that I've been wearing to death since I bought it over summer. I absolutely love it. It's a little bit cropped, but not too much, I can wear it knowing I won't show too much skin. These shorts are very new, I picked them up in London a few days ago. I already have a pair of lighter denim shorts, but I've been after a darker pair for months and these are just right. I haven't worn the boots since my first year at university (2 years ago!) They were hiding under my bed, and I forgot how much I love them! They're fur lined which makes them super comfy and perfect for the freezing January weather.

Short Shorts

Camisole: Zara, £13. Shorts: Miss Selfridge, £22. Shoes: Topshop

I had to run a few errands today and as the temperature is hovering around the high 20's where I am I thought it was the perfect excuse to try one of my summer holiday looks. I saw the shorts months ago out shopping with friends, but they didn't have my size. I'm never really one for online shopping but I couldn't forget about them so I bit the bullet and they're perfect so I'm really pleased. I bought the adorable little camisole in the Zara sale yesterday, £25 reduced to £13, its a little too big but for the summer months loose fitting clothes are ideal. The peplum feature is usually something I completely avoid, but as it's very subtle I didn't really mind.

Excuse the terrible photo, it's the first time I've attempted taking full-body shots of myself. Turns out it's a lot harder than I anticipated. Hopefully with a little more practice they'll turn out better...!
