Heidi plaits

I know what you're thinking; now there's a girl with too much time on her hands! You're probably right, although it actually only took about 10 minutes to transform my hair into something Heidi would be proud of. It's just 3 French plaits, wound around my head, it looks a little messy and there are grips poking out from every angle, but for a first attempt I'm pretty pleased with it. I'm still undecided whether I like it or not, is it a little ridiculous to style yourself on Heidi? (For those of you who are unaware, I'm talking about Heidi, the TV show about the girl who lived in the Swiss Alps, and definitely not Heidi Montag, just to clear that up!)

Coat: Topshop |  Shirt: Zara  |  Cardigan: Topman  |  Shorts: Vintage Levi's  |  Shoes: Carvela

Although my face is completely over exposed and my expression pretty gormless, I love this outfit so decided to post these photos anyway, rather than attempt to squeeze into the nook of that tree again. During the summer I wore these shorts far too much, so when winter came around they got shoved to the back of my wardrobe and were replaced with a black cord version, which I have worn far too much all winter! Recently I've discovered my love for my these Levi's again. Shorts are my absolute go to item, I feel so comfortable in them and they just seem to make any outfit look better.

Pussy bows and polka dots

  Hat and Cardigan: H&M
 Belt and Ring: Topshop
Loafers: Office

  Blouse: Zara

  Shorts: Levi

I managed to find some time to snap a few photos in the sun yesterday, which was lucky as the only outfit appropriate for today is something similar to the style of Paddington bear, which would probably make a pretty awesome outfit post actually. Anyway, I managed to solve the tiny hat/huge head mystery, it turns out that H&M do 2 different styles, so I don't have a ridiculously big head, brilliant! I think I prefer this hat, the one in my bowler hat post looks a bit werid on my head, what do you reckon?

I absolutely love this blouse, the photos don't really do it justice. It combines so many things I love at the moment, polka dots, pussy bows, peter pan collars, and burgundy autumnal colours. I've become a bit of a lover of Zara at the moment, which is a complete turn around. I always used to find their shops so stark and the clothes really bland, but their A/W collection is right up my ally!

I've also joined yet another outfit site, if you have a spare minute please add me on Chictopia and I'll love you forever.
