Hello everyone, I bet this is a shocking sight for you all. Me, wearing something other than black? Cor blimey. I absolutely adore the colour of these jeans, as soon as I saw them in Topshop last week I just had to try them on. In the past when I've tried on Topshop jeans they have been rather baggy on me, but since gaining some weight in the last year they are now the perfect fit (and quite flattering if I say so myself!), so I saw it quite the investment to also buy them in camel and black. The price of all three was originally meant to total to one hundred and twenty pounds, but due to two of them scanning through cheaper and my student discount I managed to get all three for just eighty one pounds! I hardly ever treat myself to new, 'expensive' things, so I'm really happy with my purchases. I can't wait to style the others, they are perfect additions to my wardrobe, I may actually have to buy a few more colours! 
I have to admit, I was unsure about posting such pictures of myself after current events - the riots which have been taking place in the UK over the last few days are absolutely shocking, words can't fully express how I feel. On Monday night I couldn't even get home because my neighbourhood was too dangerous (luckily I managed to stay at a relative's house in South Kensington) and my local high street has really been affected. I hope everyone is okay. Stay safe! Love, Jazzabelle.

    I wish i had your wardrobe, But i would never pull it off as well as you do. Those jeans are bloody amazing! I want theeem. I need a black pair too! I used to find jeans too baggy for me but i've gained a lot of weight in the last few years (god damn it hahah) so they are very good fit! I do love topshop jeans a lot. I need to wear my camel ones more!

    Gosh look at those legs! bloody beautiful. I've been wanting a pair like that to wear with some wedges I bought the other week. You're right about them being flattering! They look very feminine also!

    I live between Wolverhampton and Birmingham and both have been affected. I've seem some images of pictures of the cities being smashed and it hurts so much. How does this solve anything, they have no idea how much hurt they have caused.

    I am glad you are SAFE. I can't imagine what it must be like to live in London at the moment (it has spread up north but it's all copycats really), how frightening.

    On a positive note, it's lovely to see you in brights! :) Those trews are beautiful, can't believe you strayed from your 50p routine hehe. Looking lovely mrs, and the way you're styling your hair of late is beautiful.

    So glad you're safe and had a relative to stay with! It does feel a tad weird blogging through the madness, I was so stressed about rumours in my local area yesterday I didn't post anything. Luckily the police presence prevented anything though.

    I do wear colour but I never wear jeans! Yet when I see pairs in gorgeous shades like this I am completely won over. They're lovely. Hooray for student discount!

    The riots have been so scary, but they seem to have quietened down thank goodness. I know a lot of people were not sure whether to start blogging again after, but I feel like it's important to get back to real life, and give us all something to enjoy as well.

    I know how you feel about the riots, I've lived just outside of Croydon my whole life and to see the place I know burnt down and destroyed is heartbreaking.
