c'est freak le chic

Hola girlies! A quick post of my outfit today, bought these shoes/booties from Primarni on sunday they were £15 woo, matched my christmas (warehouse) satchel pretty well so I thought why not. Wearing Beth's fur coat again ;) and the geek glasses!  Oh and not forgetting the bru as well haha. 

Talking of Beth, she has started up her own blog, showcasing her gorgeous outfits and photography work and random ramblings. Take a look! 

Seeing as I've now presented my three presentations, and only have a 3500 word essay due in for next week I'm treating myself by going out tonight (again) for a few drinkies! Not sure at all what to wear but I'll be sure to take a pic for here! 

Happy tuesday lovelies,

xoxo AVS

stylequeen of my heart.

~this post is a little out of date, however with the news of another little Beckham on the way I wanted to celebrate Mrs B~

You may or may not have heard me mention in the past my love for a certain Mrs Beckham. The amount of love I have for this lady is immense! I've never been one of those types to have massive lifelong loves or monthly crushes on fit actors or handsome singers, my one true love is Victoria Beckham.

 Ever since Spice girls the movie, "Which dress shall I wear? The little black Gucci dress or the little black Gucci dress?" I fell in love. Yeah Baby spice was loved and adored by everyone and wore a lot of pink, but Posh was classy and mysterious (and didn't wear those hideously clumpy boots that Baby+Scary wore!!)

Victoria has been on a style journey in the past 10 years; she went from the little black Gucci dress, to reavealling WAG appropriate Roberto Cavalli and back to a simple little black dress. Her name is huge in fashion industry right now, she was even nominated for the Best Designer Brand award at the British Fashion Awards 2010. 

This month Victoria has graced the cover of British Vogue for a third time, (solo this is her second cover). What a massive achievement. Not only does Victoria have her January issue to celebrate she is also 3 months pregnant with her 4th little Beckham, a massive congratulations to her and the hubby. 

Here is a run through of VB's covers for your viewing pleasure :) 

Her first cover in 1998, from the Spice Girls days makes me laugh, all the other girls are smiling away and there's Victoria pouting away! I love the April 2008 cover, I remember being at college and my best friend brought her copy in and just envying Victoria, she looks amazing. I'm not too keen on the fact that May 2010 was so similar in pose... Could they not think of another one?

Out of these final four, my least favourite is the Feb 2009 cover, simply for the fact you can't see her eyes, yeah you can tell it's her, but if you didn't know it was her would that draw you to the magazine (if you didn't usually buy Vogue that is) I do love her eyebrows in the May 2010 cover though, she looks incredible. 

Having graced British, Turkish, Spanish, Russian and Indian Vogue, all that is left is American! Then world domination! ~ Long live the StyleQueen!  

Mega envious of her (potential) little girl. Think about the wardrobe she'll inherit.

red lips+leopard spots.

leopard print blazer- h&m, body con dress- topshop, bag- marc b! booties- topshop! 

(and BTW, i'm not a hoe- i didn't wear my dress this high all night, i had quickly hopped up to have this pic taken!) 

bonjour you beautiful girlies! 

as promised here is a picture of my thursday night outfit, although if you read the previous post, you'd know i planned on wearing a sheer shirt... this is no sheer shirt! i brought this gorgeous leopard print blazer on my birthday when i went shopping in brighton, it was only £15 (non-sale!)

i'm addicted to leopard print- its my thing. i could make an entire outfit out of leopard print items twice over, i just love how its a classic print and can be worn all year round, season after season. 

also, as you can see i have some gorgeous new booties!!!! they are from toppyshoppy and i got them £40 on sale (down from £80). my housemate, Katie, had them for like a year in navy blue and she's a tiny size 4 feet, my flippers wouldn't have fit in them, so when i saw these in my size, i jumped at the chance of purchasing them! 

incase you're wondering why i didn't wear the sheer shirt, i wanted to wear it with grey jeans and my new booties, but i don't didn't own any! after a tip of from RAY, i went to primarni and picked up a pair of super skinnies for £8! woooo! so next time i go out i'm sorted! 

anyway loverrsss, i'm off to finish my presentation then watch take me out with my housemates! muchos loveeeeeee, 

xoxo AVS 

birthdayblues

l-r: me: dress- H&M £10 in the sale! katie: dress- Bank 

girlies, it was my birthday last week, and now i'm officially old (20! not a teen anymore, boo hoo) nothing has obviously changed physically but maybe this is a time to grow up and accept some responsibility in 2011? well i've taken my New Years Resolutions seriously (last night I chose to stay in and do work over hitting up Kaos), gonna start running with my housemate Beth (she has a new blog- check it!)

i'm going out for a few cheeky glasses of wine tonight with the girls, i know i know i said i wasn't going out but i can't help it, what can i say, i'm a social butterfly! 

(one is aware of how many times one said the term 'i' in that sentence! one is so self absorbed!) 

tonight i'm planning on rocking a sheer h&m shirt that i brought the other day, what shall i wear on my lower half? i'd love to wear grey skinnies but alas i don't own any! (i'll post a pic of what i eventually decide tomorrow!) 

lots of love!!!!!!!!! eeeek!

blur+specs

specs & trousers- new look, leather jacket & scarf- h&m, bag- lipsy

Happy New Year girlies, I hope 2011 has been treating you well so far, and you've snapped up lots and lots of goodies in the sales? I've been looking at some of your posts with your purchases in and I'm very jealous about some of them! I've seen some right bargains on your blogs! 

I highly suspect that this picture would have been alright if it had not been blurring and missed out my shoes (but thank you for taking it Beth!). I rocked this look a few days ago, and I've come to discover that I love wearing trousers. These New Look trousers are oh so comfortable, I adore the colour as its very versatile and they were very reasonably priced! 

Uni is very hectic for me at the moment, I have 3 presentations, a 3,500 word essay and a magazine layout+workbook to do before the 18th! Wish me luck! 2011 will hopefully calm down soon! 

xoxo AVS 

oh sweet treat of mine.

(sorry about the poor photo! have no fear my dears, the camera *hopefully* comes tomorrow!!!) 

Say hello to the new baby of my shoe family! these beauts were an early birthday present to me from, well, myself! Topshop's sale has started and I just had to get these (I got them for £40 down from £80). BARGAIN! 

Have you indulged in any pre-christmas sales? What are your Christmas Eve plans? 

Me and my muma intend on finishing our present wrapping then sitting down with some Christmassy beverages and watch Elf! (film4, 7:15)

I hope you all have an absolutely wonderful evening, make sure your rooms are tidy (otherwise Santa won't come in and leave your stocking at the end of your bed!), I hope your Christmas is filled with a lot of laughter and happiness :) 

lots of CHRISTMAS love! 

xoxo avs
