OOTD - Fair Isle Bargain!!

For some reason my GFC isn't showing up for some people at the right hand side, if you want to follow me (and I'd love you to!) then please click on the 'follow blog' button at the very top of the page, or you can also follow via BlogLovin' using the link on the left. Sorry and thanks!! ^_^

A little OOTD for you today, featuring my lovely little bargain skirt from Primark! It was the only one left, and it said it was a tenner but scanned up at £3. Perfect.


I've liked the whole Fair Isle trend over Winter but because I tend to wear what suits me rather than just follow the fashion, I was worried about investing in something and then looking 'so last season' because I'd probably wear it year round. Ha. So this little bargain skirt was perfect for me to dip my toe in!

I used my Gorillapod to take these photos, my first real attempt with it!
Here's the photo of it incase you missed it in my post a while back:


It worked a treat! I really recommend it if you're looking for a wee helping hand for your photos. =p


The top is from New Look last year, and the tights are from Primark. I'm going through a 'ribbons in my hair' stage just now; just ignore it haha!

And my face:

No idea what the pink thing is under my chin!
Eyes: Naked Palette, Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour felt tip eyeliner, UD Supercurl mascara
Face: Nars Orgasm, JK Light as Air foundation
Lips: Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Colour in Coral Reef.

What do you think? Will you still be wearing your winter clothes in Spring?? Or wouldn't you be seen dead in 'last season's' efforts? =p
Let me know!

  1. I love the jumper...so cute!

    I have a Gorillapod too, but I haven't had chance to use it. Perhaps because when I went to find it the other day, I realised I have no idea what I did with it *fail*
