There's a ghost in this house, and when he sings it sounds just like you.


I was delighted to find my awesome new skirt had arrived in the mail the other day. I'd been craving this beauty for quite a while but talked myself out of it countless times due to the self-proclaimed 'Grand Sequin Debacle'. I'm not crazy enough to count each sequin individually (I lost count after about 250... ok so I am a little crazy... and currently facing the sequin equivalent of snow blindness) but the absolute second one of those little sequins drops off will mark the beginning of the end (not just of the skirt, but also of my so-called life).
So why did I buy it regardless? Well when the priced dropped considerably in the sales and the only size left in stock was mine, so it felt like fate was compelling demanding me to buy that skirt! And I didn't want to upset fate now, did I??
Although I was a little surprised by it's appearance; on the website it was a sort of lilac grey with silver sequins, which on closer inspection looks more like elephant grey with tarnished gold and grey sequins, but whatever, it's still incredible.




Thanks for all the lovely comments on my last post btw. I won't be replying to them straight away because all my cwk deadlines are this month, the first of which is coming up this week so I've really gota focus, sorry, I'll try to write back soon! Until then, have an amazing week!

  22. The top photograph has a sinister, haunted twist to it which is really effective! I feel like these images could have a deeper narrative to them, such as suicide, because the top one looks like the girl is being hung from the lights...'out in a flash' comes to mind! The one below looks like she's being taunted by them! I love them all! All of your photographs look so professional, you should be PROUD! :D xx

    P.s I adore your mirror necklace!
