i don't know , you're not there .

in my head : ruby - kaiser chiefs

I'M SORRY I GOT IT MIXED UP BUT I'M PICTURE 321 !!!!! if you haven't voted for me , do it now . my current canon ixus almost died today and i almost had a heart attack .

there's been so much going on this past week . in between trying to finish my assignments and the surprising extensions , i'm kind of stuck . i can't seem to pull myself away from the multiple tabs in my firefox window to work on my assignments in microsoft word . all of that combined with my failing / failed pre-family-arrival low carb diet is turning out to be very frustrating . my desk looks like a bomb exploded , my carpet is a mixture of research material + tortilla chip crumbs + papadam fragments + hair + lint , and i'm pretty sure the last time i changed my sheets was two months ago .

another wasted morning / afternoon and i decided that i needed a change of scenery - even if it was to go grocery shopping .

i remember being completely smitten when prada first introduced their lace pieces in the autumn / winter 08 collection .

the fact that the lace was chunkier and tougher ( as opposed to being traditionally delicate and demure ) made me want it so much more . i didn't think i would actually be able to own something like that , but as luck would have it , i snagged the skirt / belt ! i haven't really worn it ( wearing it round the house doesn't count ) because i'm so paranoid i'll damage it , but i needed my spirits lifted today so i pulled out the prada .

tried to get an outfit shot at my usual spot but the sun kind of messed up the ISO ; got a pretty cool effect though .

i wore -

long sleeved top : warehouse
roadarte inspired sweater : savers
woven belt : camberwell
lace skirt/belt : prada
skirt : handmade following childhoodflames tutorial
leggings : deborah k.

to safeway .

my outfit completely reflects my intense nutella craving .

the extras

with the shredded effect , i bought the sweater because it reminded me so much of the rodarte pieces i want but can never afford . tavi , i would kill to be you .

this caught my eye on the way home . you get to take home a free plant and all you have to do is email or text where you brought the plant to !
