'Cause if you're not really there
black jaeger blazer - charity shop - £6.75
heather gray woollen tights - New Look - £5
black basic shorts - Matalan
black legwarmers worn as knee high socks
light blue boyfriend t-shirt - New Look - £10
black flower corsage brooch - Claire's
I'm so in love with my new blazer- and I'm rather pleased I managed to get it for only £6.75. Charity shops can be brilliant for stand-alone pieces and rare finds like this one.
This entire outfit is sort of inspired by a lot of people I see both at college and on Lookbook, and I think it's actually quite adventurous of me to have attempted to pull off a semi-formal look like this. I was absolutely bricking it about the legwarmers/knee highs! To be fair, I spent the majority of my day pulling them back up my legs as they kept slipping down towards my calves. They're an old pair, and the elastic is now, sadly, non-existent. Hopefully I'll be able to invest in a couple new pairs at some point, although even if I don't, no harm done, really.

Anyway, I hope you're well, and that the winter isn't treating you too harshly. Keep warm! x

Part I of my birthday weekend "haul".
This is my first ever post here, so do excuse me if the fact that I'm a complete newbie is obvious. I have a blog on Tumblr- this one- and while I am primarily a photo-blogger there, lately I've been very interested in fashion blogging- therefore the creation of this blog. I follow some really amazing people, such as Bekah and Lily, whose posts initially inspired me to create this blog/to start fashion blogging.
To begin with, I think I should talk a little about myself- my name is Anshika, although I am known as "Ash" by almost everybody. I'm of Indian origin, but I currently reside in the small port city of Southampton, in England. I love it here, and think of this as my home, as compared to anywhere else in the world.
I turned seventeen two days ago, and I suppose you could say that I'm beginning a new project by creating this blog- new start and all that jazz.
I'm five feet, seven inches tall, and weigh about eleven stone. That's overweight for my age/height, but I'm working on it. I suppose this blog will (hopefully) document my progression towards being a healthier weight-
not only so I look better, but feel better and more confident too.
I go to sixth form college, and take photography, media studies, English literature/language, and communication & culture. I'm not a massive fan of college, but mostly because I just miss school. It's a permanent ache inside me, and I'm fine with the fact that it won't go away.
