With luck, it might even snow for us

After Dark - Haruki Murakami

We had the tiniest dusting of snow in Manchester over the past two days. Most of it has melted everywhere, but there was still some on Beech Road. Irsa finally came round, and we managed to take a few pictures. I know they're not amazing, but it was really, really, really ridiculously cold! Plus, my camera was in a bad mood, and most of the pictures were coming out really awful. 

Now, I'm off to finish my English portfolio (the one I haven't even started yet) and Irsa's busy with her Architecture work. 

I'm hoping we get time to see each other again in the next week or two, and then we can actually do a decent blog post. 

Have a great weekend!

How doth the little crocodile improve his shining tail

Alice in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll

Went for Bree's birthday meal today; a non formal get together.

We came to the conclusion that I might have found my signature look. Exciting!

 My description of it was dark and punk-ish, but I think I'm going to stick to Ambreen's words; high end and elegant.

Heres a few shots me and my brother took

Hypnotise you

Jacket - New look

T-shirt - Jack & Jones

Jeans - Primark

We've been trying to do a-post-a-day for this month. So far so good!

The weather was horrible today. I don't mind the cold, but when the heavens decide to open (which they often do in Manchester) I think twice about stepping outside. Which is exactly why, the only time I went out today was to take these pictures! 

However sitting at home all day today, allowed me to opt for a comfy, easy-to-throw-together, jeans and a t-shirt combo. The layered jacket and wedge heels add femininity to the outfit (which I'm sure Ambreen will give me a thumbs up for) and the black ties the other colours together nicely. 

Should finally be seeing Ambreen tomorrow, so watch out for our post together. Not had one of those in a while!

Come on down and dance, if you get the chance

Kings of leon - Back down south

T shirt - Primark (men's section)

Scarf - H&M (men's section)

Cardigan - H&M (men's section)

Trousers - H&M 

Wedge heeled ankle boots - Deichmann

Just quickly put this post together as I'm trying to make up for my lack in contribution towards the blog lately.

I went for my traditional boyish look today, as you can tell since half my outfit is brought from the men's section (Ambreen won't be too pleased). But, its easy, comfortable and looks good! Effortless. 

currently obsessed with this scarf! It was brought as a treat while I was in Berlin and I think it makes up the best blend of colours for winter. These wedges are also a favourite at the moment. Their perfectly suitable for looking good on the constantly wet floor that makes up Manchester city.

For this post a stole a external flash from my uncles shed of vintage cameras & parts. I never use the flash when doing photography, even in dimmer light settings, I tend to use surrounding light sources to light the picture. I don't think I've perfected its full potential yet, but I do like how some of the pictures have turned out. Hopefully with some experimenting, we'll have some fantastic shots soon.
