Sick of me in this skirt yet? No? GOOD! Ah I just simply love it. Promise I've washed it though! I have worn it an awful lot since I bought it. I wish I'd bought another one on reflection but Zoe linked me to this one on Asos on Twitter and I knew I had to get my mitts on it. I'm just obsessed with high wasited belted skirts! I seem to be doing blue and black looks alot recently, even though I'm not really much of a fan of blue and black, always thought it was a bit of a fashion no no. However I think with the browny rusty coloured cardigan it looks quite nice. If you haven't noticed, I'm quite into colours at the moment and how different colours go together. So its fun trying to find colours that unexpectedly work! I think thats the graphic designer in me!
Todays video is a little on the crappy side, Its been so dark and dreary today the lighting was just crap! But you get the idea! The bit at the end is probably as close as a HOW TO DO LLYMLRS HAIR as it gets (Although I do have a YT video on how I do my hair but its long forgotten!). As that is literally all I do to my hair. No products, although I would backcomb a tiny bit at the sides, Fluff it up a bit, swoosh it about, jujj it up and the volia, it might look good, it might not! I have actually Ombre'd it again so its alot blonder than it was! Just needs a bit of toner or something to take some of the brassyness out!
As for today, I haven't done much. I didnt sleep well last night, so I woke up a bit late, Had a free Starbucks in the morning, Went to university, Handed my dissertation in and came home! Now I'm going to have a nap, and hopefully it will refresh me a bit! I then plan to watch Man vs. Food, then Glee and then the new episode of Shameless. OHH IM LIVING THE HIGHLIFE!







Such a cute look! Your cardi is gorge too! I WANT! x
ReplyDeleteim not a fan of black and blue either but your outfit is pretty niceee. wooooh glee :] xx
ReplyDeleteMan alive, I love this. Classic yet edgy! Can you please buy extra clothes for all of us when you go shopping and we'll pay you back. Just tell the store you'll take all the black skirts. Sweet:)
ReplyDeleteI love the cardigan and simple skirts like the one you're wearing :) I love Glee too!
ReplyDeletei wish i could watch glee and shameless but i've told myself i'm not switching the telly on until i've finished revising...lucky me lol
ReplyDeletewhat a wild night i'm having ;)

I think the skirt looks good on you, I'm probably to big for it (not that I'm fat, but yeah... you know)
ReplyDeleteand I love love love the colour combination. The blue and brown go well together and for the whole blue black no no no thing... I have the same but with black and brown.
But this outfit breaks all the rules I guess, cause I like it.
What a longggggg comment, I'm sorry. On my own blog I never know what to write lol
x
i love the technical description of how to get hair ala lily ;) "jujj"
ReplyDeletethe highlight of my night is watching shameless, how very rock star of me. it's not as good as it used to be though, everyone's not as 'grotty' if you know what i meanz init. and i miss kev and veronica, and lip *sigh*
anyway, i digress, looking divine miss jujj ;)
love, emma xx
Like your lovely cardigan :> and love your hair! You are amazing :)
ReplyDeleteMan v Food is my absolute favourite! That cardigan looks super cosy. :)
ReplyDeleteSarah x
wow, that cardigan is gorgeous! i really wanna buy that!
ReplyDeletei love your outfit, especially the cardigan! and i finally got this adorable cross ring, too :O)
ReplyDeletei actually love blue and black together!
ReplyDeletealways hated it in magazines or online that were like 'OMG DON'T WEAR BLUE'N'BLACK FASHION FAUX PAS' but i thought why?
i like navy and black, but only with a tan belt around the waist just to break up the pallette.
wish i could have got my paws on this skirt! must have got in to late

Wow you can totally tell your hair has been re-ombred. It looks amazing, really natural. My hair looked like that naturally when I was younger - ahh sunkissed hair :) xxx

Love the different looks you're getting out of the skirt! It's so cute. I need to get myself another chunky knit cardi too, they are so cosy. It seems to be freezing again today.
ReplyDeleteGlee will actually be the higlight of day today
That cardi is schweeeet, and I don't see black and blue as a fashion no-no anymore - can look so good sometimes.
ReplyDeleteGlee = <3

I don't think blue and black is a fashion no no to be honest, I think you demonstrated that! I love that cardigan!
ReplyDeleteLove this style of skirt, think I'm going to be purchasing the ASOS skirt now that my student loan is in!

ReplyDeletelove it if you checked out my blog?:D
Love the colour palette of this outfit. I think the blue looks more than fine with the black. x
ReplyDeleteI love love love the cardigan! I've seen it so many times in my local New Look but since I've stopped working there I can't bear to part with the money knowing I could have used my discount if it had came out earlier! :( I also love the skirt, I think it really suits you! :) I can't wait for Glee tonight either, finally something to brighten up my dull Mondays again :) xx
ReplyDeleteamazing outfit. and i love your hair (-:
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your cardigan!
ReplyDeleteyou are so beautiful in these photos, i mean you are pretty in everything, but last days you had other hairstyle, didn´t you ? but great photos, I like them and greta outfit of course like always, I wanted this T-shirt in purple and green, but now don´t know what colour is the best :-)
ReplyDeleteI love that cardigan and your hair looks so good! I wish I could do that to mine but it's red and would probably end up pink :\
ReplyDeleteGLEE <33333333333!

ReplyDeletethe Brown and blue look great on you

Love this cardi, reminds me of the one I got for £65 outta Urban Outfitters, least I never paid for it Eek!

Hi , I'm a portuguese girl and I discover your blog a few days ago. So I have started reading that, because I think the image is importante but isn't everything. What the blogger have to say gives life and personnality to the blog.
ReplyDeleteAnd I congratulate you for the dedication on describing your day or your thoughts.
Your clothes are very funny and original , mostly because I'm not accustomed seeing that in portugal , so is the blog where I find combinations I've never seen. I simply adore.
I don't have a blog , but if you want to answer me you can just use my e-mail , anadias_12@hotmail.com.
Sorry for the mistakes but my english isn't the best.
Well Lily, your obsession with colours is certainly going well because these work perfectly together! I'm still loving this season's colours even if it is getting quite late on and we're heading into spring!
ReplyDeleteYour style is really cute, love the cardi!

I think I said the same thing on your youtube video but I love this skirt :). I need something similar you manage to make so many nice outfits with this one piece x
ReplyDeleteI love your outfit post and your skirt is gorgeous! x
ReplyDeleteThe blue and the caramel really are a match made in heaven, such a beautiful combination.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same with black skirts, I have the same one as you but without the scallop details, a leather one and a polka dot one. I have my eye on one from american apparel too, just need to save for it!

You are totally living the high life! :)
ReplyDeleteYou paired the black & blue swatch with the cognac knit perfectly. Adore it, you look so pretty.

ReplyDeletei love this outfit.
ReplyDeleteLovely. I have a similar chunky sweater but in grey that I seem to pair with everything these days. It just ties all my stuff together for some reason.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing your paper!
I've always loved high waisted skirts, they just skim in all the right places and highlight the waist to perfection. im loving them on you too :)Scrapbook de la Emma
ReplyDeleteOh gosh man vs food is the best. have fun watching it.

i really like this cardi too (I know everyone seems to have said that) i'm wondering if it is recent and therefore likely to be still in store?!!
ReplyDeleteI like the skirt, but personally I'm totally the wrong shape for high-waisted skirts..
I've seen so many girls wearing and blogging about this cardigan since you got it. Bit lame, but you rock it so good!
ReplyDeleteI think this colour blue and black look lovely together, so don't worry, you look gorgeous :)

ReplyDeleteHey Lily with just 2 'L's,
ReplyDeleteI really like this outfit and I pretty much like the way you do your outfit videos. You look gorgeous and happy in them :) Hahaha blabla enough compliments, I don't wanna sound like an extremely creepy stalker or something.
I don't sleep well at the moment, too, but I'm not into all this moon-esoteric-horoscope-sleeping-stuff, so I have no idea why. Hope you're getting better.

You are rocking the black and blue. I personally think black and blue is ok as long as its not navy blue then its a bit weird
