Touch the sky


Blue tie dye top: MANGO | Black skinny jeans: TOPSHOP | Shoes: CONVERSE

This top is one of my favourite items in my wardrobe.  It's different to anything I've ever bought before, but probably one of the coolest.  I'm not usually one to wear tie-dye prints and describe them as 'cool', but hey, people change.  The weird thing is I know for a fact I wouldn't have bought the top if it wasn't for the zip.  Yes, that tiny little zip which isn't even that noticeable.  But it gives the top cool grungy effect and therefore takes it out of the 'hippy' territory which tie-dye usually belongs to.  It is a busy top so I have to be careful when choosing what to team with it, hence why I don't wear it that often, so black jeans and Converse were the perfect choices.  I also think white skinnies would go amazingly with it but alas I don't own a pair, but you know, I can imagine... I've though about wearing it with my pink jeans but maybe that would be going too far.  What do you think, what would you wear with this top?  I've just purchased a black pleather mini skirt and I think they'd look awesome together, so I'll have to see when that arrives to my door...
Speaking of purchasing things, I have been in a huuuge shopping mood recently.  I am ALWAYS in a shopping mood, but once every few months I get into phases where I just want to buy everything I see online.  So this weekend, as soon as money went into my bank, it literally just went away again, but you do what you gotta do, right?  I didn't have enough money to buy literally everything I saw, but I have bought a few things from Zara and ASOS which am really pleased with.  Granted I can't do any shopping for the next month (which is why I'm in the process of whacking loads of clothes on my eBay, including those Topshop polkadot trousers), but I can't complain when I am wearing awesome new things, right?
I woke up at, wait for it... TEN PAST THREE(!) this afternoon.  Ohhh that can't be healthy, can it?  I didn't get to sleep until six this morning, in my defense.  I was admiring the beautiful pink sky (the only time I didn't have my camera, I was so gutted!) and reading in bed, which is now one of my favourite things to do.  The early hours of the morning when the birds are tweeting and the sun is slowly coming out is now the best time of the day.
