Yesterday (all my troubles seemed so far away etc)

Yesterday I went to the induction day at college.
The proper induction day was last week and this one was just for people who couldn't make it then, so there were about 25 students tops and almost everyone arrived on their own. Awkwardness was inevitable.

Either way, I managed to go and see the tutors for most of the classes I was interested in, which were:

*Perfomance Studies
* Theatre Studies
* Media Studies
* Film Studies
* Sociology
* Communication and Culture
* Art

Now to pick four of those in time for August...
The problem is they're all pretty similar and I could really do with a varied choice since I have no idea what I want to do for a career.
Plus I'm still unsure if Art covers Textiles, graphics and all of those, or if they can be picked as separate classes, since I don't want to do Fine Art all the time.
And I don't know if photography comes as part of Media or Art. Or both.


GAAAAAAAAH


On a lighter note, heres what I wore:


And of course a top. A stripy strapless H&M one for that matter.
I also wore the trusty brogues featured in my last post and a sheer(ish) cream shirt with brown and dark red details from Warehouse.
My hair seems to be all... iffy in that photo. My apologies.
The scarf/headband I bought from a vintage fair, and the rust shorts are from Tophop.
The tights of course are (well-worn and ripped) House of Holland. Those tights don't half piss my parents off.

In the mirror

So, this is what I wore today:

Yes, classic teenage-girl-in-the-mirror-with-flash pose. Forgive me? I have to be honest, the camera is new and I haven't yet found self timer (or a friend to take a photo for that matter). Note the failed mini victory rolls in my hair. Oh and the cut on my leg, lovely yes?

My top is stretchy and made to look like denim, from H&M. It has a zip down the front (which I don't particularly like) and I unzipped it slightly then tucked the parts in to form more of a sweetheart neckline.


Here are my H&M brogues (plus lacy socks and some random material...)
I love brogues but never have the patience for tying shoelaces prettily. Hmm.


And belt- I have absolutely no idea where that belt came from. The skirt is from a thrift store in Liverpool. I can usually find brilliant vintage shops in any area in England, except Manchester. Which is where I live. Typical.


And the bag? Well, a Union Jack tin lunch-box of course!
(aren't tin lunch-boxes and box bags just so cute?)

I'd like to say that I wore this to a vintage fair or a park but... well all I did today was go to a particuarly long doctors appointment. Hence the indoor photos. Hmm, I really need to do more with this summer!

Speaking of which, I've been looking into volunteer work for this next couple of months at theatres and animal sanctuaries, though maybe I should look for a paying job to feed my shopping addictions...
