nevermind






dress: river island
cardigan: yayer *
nails: dalmatian nails beauty UK white * & unbranded black polish

Bought this dress for River Island a few days ago and it came earlier today. The little collar tie initially drew me to the item, and I had actually wanted the white version instead of the black. Its just too see through (I dont do sheer!) in the white and I can never find anything to look decent under white dresses. I opted for the black instead and luckily I have H&M dress thats the same sort of shape which was suitable to wear underneath. 

Cant believe its almost October, this years gone so ridiculously quickly! Depressing me a little bit that I'm not a student anymore seeing all my friends photos of them during freshers! Really need to take a trip to see some pals to get some of the uni experience back!

  37. Your dress is super pretty, I know what you mean, I always try white on but if I wear tights you can see them underneath and it just makes me feel uncomfortable so I always opt for black. Your cardigan looks super cosy, I have a similar one from New Look.

  41. I'm loving River Island at the moment for dresses - it's really impressing me. Also, I am a big fan of nail art and dalmation nails are so sweet. I'm going to have to try that one ASAP.
