make a mess, make a bow







 Dress - New look
Hat - H&M
Shoes - 2nd hand/Skopunkten
Necklace - "Self-made"
Earrings - Seppälä



I think losing earrings is something of a family trait, and the last couple of years have really shown me that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. My mum is the most talented person I've ever met at losing one of her earrings. Never both, just one. And my collection of lonely earrings has started to grow too. (Must be my cray uni life...) Obviously the difference is that hardly any of mine are genuine, which makes the loss a little more bearable. Still, I was quite devastated to notice I only had one of my favourite earrings when I came home one time last year. I do wear mismatched earrings often, but thought this bow one couldn't even be mismatched well. So, I removed the post and now wear it round my neck rather than the ear. The simplest DIY!

That'd be all. See you soon, lovelies♥!

And don't forget you can still ask me questions!

  9. Love the colour of this dress! I never change my earrings and have been wearing the same ones since I was 11. They're raggedy now, but I never take them out.
