I'm sure we all have those days as style bloggers - the days when you think you're lookin' rather lovely just before you leave your flat, only to find that as soon as you are walking down the street nothing feels quite right. You look tired, your hair is frizzy and you aren't completely sure of your outfit anymore. You still attempt to take a few outfit pictures as to not have a wasted trip to your favourite location, only to find that most are out of focus (mum, you're fired! Only joking, I love you dearly) and you wished you styled something a little bit differently. I have those days pretty darn often, but I thought I'd share these photographs with you nevertheless! hope you are all havin' a lovely start to the new year, I'm determined to make this year even better than the last. So far things are lookin' rather positive, though with my pessimistic and worrying nature the thought of growing up can be a little scary at times! Lots of love, Jazmine.

    I love the charity shop finds, I found my winter coat this year in Age Concern, it was £1 - a full grey wool coat for that! Amazing!

  25. I love the outfit and I really think you look great. Your hair is so beautiful like that, like Bruno Mars says "her hair falls perfectly without her trying", is what it seems to me. So please keep posting pictures even in days you feel like that :P

    Big hug

  26. Maybe you need to hear it from a grown man: you look utterly stylish & captivating. I might also add that you should truly cherish these times when your photographer's yer mum rather than a jaded professional, you have only the local park on an overcast day for a setting, & have to search & search for an overlooked gem at the thrift store! Genius, to paraphrase the poet Baudelaire, invents its own strictures, dear, & your challenge in later life will indeed be to create your own challenges that right now you are blessed with (yes, blessed with!)as a matter of course (e.g. "naivete," "lack of affluence," "insecurity")Now go get em, girl ;)
