checkmate

what i'm wearing:
french connection checked dress* NARS 'at first sight' palette* (on cheeks and eyes)
delilah dust feather necklace*
h&m nude court heels initial disc necklace
pandora ring

i'm going to apologise now for the next couple of outfit posts i'm probably going to put up. like i said in my last post, i got my hair done (finally) and although i am super happy with my colour i never get more than an inch cut off at a time just because i know it's a pain in the arse for it to grow back. plus nine times out of ten, i'm actually happy with how my hair looks. but this time i agreed to getting a shorter layer in and now i'm really regretting it and struggling to get used to it. to others people might be looking and thinking 'what on earth is she going on about', but to me before i'd got it cut, it was the longest it had ever been and i was so happy how it looked when i curled it; which is the only way i only ever style it. so now i've lost all my length and i feel exposed and just can't figure out how to make it look nice. this is just a hair rant so please ignore me if this has all gone over your head. i honestly think i'm going to get a packet dye for my clip in extensions* and pop them in as it took me almost an hour to get the main photo for this post because every photo i looked at all i could think was 'i hate my hair!'. all i know now is that i probably won't let anyone with scissors anywhere near my hair for about a year now. *hands together* please grow back soon.

anyway... back to the actual post. today was a minging day hence why the quality of my photos are pants (thank you lack of sun) but i really wanted to show my new dress from french connection. a lovely fitted style and a lovely material too i love that because the skirt is tuliped (?) it means i don't have to worry about my stomach overflowing when i sit down. super pretty and i only wish i'd put on my trusty red lipstick!

p.s my body is covered in a magnitude of bruises/cuts from the wonderful place i call work so that's why this post make look a little ott when it comes to the blurring.
