OOTD Vegan leather jacket

I have been wanting a faux leather jacket since going vegan and I seriously don't know how I went so long without one! Initially I was going to buy one of the pastel jackets from Zara that every one has been wearing, but after it came out that Zara had been stealing peoples artwork I was so glad that I hadn't!

I was torn between buying a plain black leather or getting a colourful version. After a few days deliberating I decided to get the more versatile and classic black jacket and I'm so happy with it!
I went for a size up from my usual to get more of a relaxed fit and I'll easily be able to layer a hoody underneath in the winter. The only problem is that the back is a bit tight if I lift my arms up or stretch (rock climber probs).

The sun was shining so I wore my trusty Vans pool sliders. You can't go wrong with checkerboard and I like how they dress down an outfit and make it a bit more casual. I've lived in them this summer.

Wardrobe staple... The denim shirt

I've been on the hunt for a denim shirt for quite some time now and I was finally coming around to the idea of spending £30 on a Topshop one when I stumbled across this beauty from Primark! For £10 it was a steal and I've already got plenty of wear out of it.
I wanted to get these photo's outside of the pretty colourful houses but the fear of someone opening their front door to me stumbling around in heels was too off putting.

I've been rather uninspired with my art lately so I'm going to try accompanying each post with an illustration in an attempt to restart my creativity.

I'm also working on redesigning the blog so hopefully I will be more inspired here too!

Lavender Hair

Lately I've been trying to be more spontaneous and it occurred to me that I've had the same blonde hair for three years, not very spontaneous of me!

After searching for hours on Pinterest I finally decided I was going to take the leap and dye my hair a pinky/purple. I bought two pots of Directions Lavender dye and left it on for about an hour and a half. When I washed off the colour I could see that the freshly bleached top of my hair took the colour a lot better and so it was a bright purple, whereas the ends of my hair were left more of a lilac, pastel pink mixture. This resulted in an accidental ombre which I really love!

I'm now completely inspired to keep experimenting with my hair colour and I love how I can match my eyebrows to it and be more adventurous with my makeup. I mainly wear head to toe black and so this colour is allowing me to stand out a little more than I normally do!

I think next I'm going to try electric blue or pastel turquoise.
