Lets go to Ha-Wa-Hee



As the weather has been beautiful today I decided to get out 'The Hawaiin Shirt'.
This post is just going to be focussed all on that Hawaiin shirt really. The reason why I love this shirt so much is because I've been looking for a decent Hawaiin shirt for AGES then I found this bad boi in a charity shop and instantly fell in love. It just hit all the spots, bright and wonderful but is subtle still.
I need to calm myself down before I get abit over excited over a shirt.

Question: Do Hawaain people ACTUALLY wear Hawaiin shirts, or is it just what English people wear when they go Hawaii?

While I was getting dressed, I was listening to Paramore's new album (which is amazing) and I think that really inspired this outfit alot today. If I had a pair of black Odd Future old skool Vans, they would just make the outfit 10 times better, well, I'm afraid I don't have a pair. But instead I went for second best and wore my Creepers!

Poeme Obsession

Poeme Obsession by georgiaxsmyth featuring prada

These beautiful Prada sunglasses are my summer must have's, unfortunately I can't afford them. So I am just going to appreciate them from afar. I would say the top ivory coloured glasses are my absolute favourite out of all of these and I would wear these with a minimal, white, shorts/trouser suit and some killer heels. But a girl can only dream.

Bank Holiday Clashing




So this was taken on bank holiday Monday (yes it has taken me flippin ages to post this) in London near Carnaby St, before there I went to the Erwin Blumenfield exhibition at Somerset House and IT WAS SO GOOD, if you don't know who he is, his a Fashion Photographer who's mostly known for his work in the 1940s-60s. So I was desperate to go. I would've taken photos but I we weren't allowed to, so I strongly recommend giving it a visit or just google him, that might be easier.
And I got stopped by some bloggers to take a photo of my outfit which I found a massive compliment, they haven't put it up yet but when they do I'll put up the link.
I'd like to pre-apologise for my horrendous posing, it will improve I promise, as you can tell I no model!

This outfit is one big texture/pattern clash and I don't know if that's a good thing (I hope it is). I've basically mixed mesh, floral, velvet and bleached denim all into one. I think the floral shirt makes this abit more feminine and brighter just for the fact that the velvet and mesh really darkens it.
My jacket was a dark denim jacket I found in a charity shop and decided to do some DIY acid wash, I learnt how to do it from youtube videos and literally found them soooo funny. Theres this guy called theiceman289 (his hilarious) who does alot of DIY clothing tutorials and you can find the denim acid one here.
