blair waldorf

 
shirt: primark
skirt: miss selfridge

I feel like I could turn up at Constance in this and fit right in! Wore this outfit (with black tights, duh) to the press days last week. Weird thing is the skirt is a teeny tiny size 6 yet I had to get the shirt in a 14. Yes, you read right, and it still gapes a little at the boobs! I have no idea WHAT is up with Primark's sizing lately.

What do we think about the new parting? I feel like a bit of a spamhead but it's growing on me. I just want to get rid of my fringe really, it gets in the way too much and my hair gets dirtier quicker where I have to keep playing with it! Have also been using a new hair tool which I can't wait to post about properly!

Got lots of outfit photos done today so will stagger them till I can do some more. It's not cheating since it's all stuff I've worn lately/ will be wearing so it counts right? Desperate times and desperate measures in the blogging world~

Does everyone have their Christmas tree up yet? Mum can't remember if she kept our old one or threw it away so we are going hunting for a new one tomorrow as well as some new ornaments and stuff! Hunting as in probably going as far as Tesco. Nonetheless I am quite excited at the prospect of festive activities. Ho ho ho.

  2. You look super beautiful in this! The new hair is certainly lovely, I had to get a 12-14 body-con skirt from primark the other day it looked like the 8-10 would barely fit around my thigh! Ridiculous...

  3. Love this outfit! Very Blair.

    We put our tree up on the 1st, but it looks a litle pathetic and bare! Having a rubbish tree is the price of being a student! Very excited for Christmas now though:)

  8. The hair and makeup is amazing!

    Also, my parents are waiting for me to go home to do the tree, so I guess it won't be up until the 19th when I eventually get back to France... Seems like such a long time to wait!

  25. LOVE this. In love with Blair and her entire wardrobe. Foolishly I bought this shirt in a 10 without trying it on so I'm like the incredible hulk bursting out of it from all seams..

  50. Beautiful hair and makeup, making me feel very scabby fresh out of the shower with not a scrap on my face!! This outfit works so well, I love the skirt, such a good staple and very flattering on you. My mum won't get the tree up until I go home on the 16th, excited even if all I do is sit and watch and eat chocolates!

  53. You look gorgeous - love your hair and makeup!

    Don't get me started on Primark sizing. I bought a pair of leggings the other day and can only get my legs in ONE side - the other side is at least two sizes smaller! What on earth.

    ReplyDelete

  54. love that shirt so much - I swear all of the sizes have gone so peculiar recently. I don't ever buy anything without trying it on now cos I never know what size I'm gonna be!
    I think the centre parting really suits you, really like it :) :)
    Take care <3 Holz oxo

  72. I love Blair inspired outfit. I haven't watched GG in years, but her style was always my favorite.
    I don't have my tree up either, we usually don't put it up until mid December around here, but I do have a mini one up in my room.
