Cross My Heart.

Another, jewellery lust. This time it is Maria Francesca Pepe. Equally as masculine, gothic and metal-heavy as all predecessors.
Vampire Sleepers, £67, Cross Ade Ring £55, Piercing Earring, £88, Fangs Ade Ring, £55.

Aspirational Asprey.

I don't think Asprey can do wrong. From safes and salt shakers to magnifying glasses and mother of pearl spoons. Let's just forget the formalities, like prices, they have no use here.

Blazers, Bandeaus And Bittersweet Good Buys.

As student loan day fast approaches, my usually overzealous idealistic finds become all too possible. Someone take my card before it's too late.
Peace 18-Karat Rose Gold Diamond Ring, £570, Ileana Makri. Mid-rise raw-edged rigid-denim shorts, £145, Ksubi. Black Ruched Bandeau Bralet, £8, Premium Oyster Co-ordinating Silky Blazer, £85, Fabio White Buckle Cuff Sandals, £42, all Topshop.

My Apologies.

It is officially the most stressful week of my academic calender and for that I can only apologise. Much to my dismay, the blog posts will suffer but I'll try my utmost not to completely neglect it. If you are on here looking to procrastinate, like I do with much of my time, you might like to take a look at Peter Szuhay's website. He is an antique collector and whilst admittedly I almost fell asleep typing 'antique collector', there is the odd diamond in the rough. For example, the 'vintage bone and albatros quill pipe' below in May's VOGUE came from his collection. Pro: it's a skull. Con: it cost £800.

Pre Work Mini Spree.

Nothing like a little shop to try and remotely incentivize the forthcoming week from hell. Give me the strength to survive this week and give these wonderful purchases the attention and outings they deserve.

Black Floral Print Shirt, £38, Topshop.


Lips in Muted, £8, Topshop.

Medium Leather Carry-All Pouch, £40, American Apparel. (Excuse the DIY picture, I couldn't find this leather online, it's that special)

Wishful Thinking.

And another, arguably more practical, ensemble for a sunny Sunday. Do have a lovely day and think of me in the two worst places to be on a day like today; library and work.

Kourion Leather Gladiator Sandals, £235, Diane von Furstenberg. Straw Shopper Bag, £32, XL Semi Precious Tassel Necklace, £14, both Topshop. Pleated Crepe Gown, £1,715, Chloé.

Just Fabulous.

Feeling a little fierce today for a Sunday. Does it show? Nothing like a bit of armoured leather, six and a half inch stilettos and blood red cow hide to start the day.
Leather & Wool-Crepe Dress, £1,630, Chloé. David Delfin Suede & Leather Pumps, £495, Christian Louboutin. Small Leather Carry-All Pouch, £30, Nail Varnish in Manila, £7, both American Apparel.

It's A Sunny Situation.

Best make the most of the weather whilst it's here, it never stays for long, here is an outfit to excel in this sunny weekend. I think I'd walk barefoot for a year to wear these wedges for a day. They are beautiful beyond belief.

Water Snake Espadrille Wedges, £421, Chloé. Black Ribbon Bow Tie, Anywhere. Black Pleated Maxi Skirt By Marios, £190, Stone Sleeveless Casual Shirt, £32, Cut Out Stacker Ring Set, £8.50, all Topshop.

Pamela Love for Topshop.

You know that old cliché, 'dream come true'? Well this is one of those. Fave high street plus fave jewellery designer collaborations make Rosie a happy girl. Shame it's only five pieces but I have high hopes for those five. I've been waiting a while now but with them due in May, the suspense is starting to kill me. (Insert some ironic line about loving Pamela Love.)

Lav. Lav. Lav.

Been waiting for this one for a while. Beautiful.

Premium Grey Suede Fringe Cape, £195, Topshop.
