Bishoujo Senshi



Blouse - Primark / Skirt - H&M / Necklace - Astrid & Miyu

This shirt has been on my wishlist for the longest time. I only ever saw it once in my local Primark in a size 8 & size 12. Not brilliant when you're a size 10 but I was willing to ignore that because I wanted it so much. I had to rush off to our swimming lesson & when I returned two hours later they were both gone. So I trawled ebay for it & managed to get it BNWT for £12. Happy me. I think it was the combination of a pointed collar, bell sleeves & a bow that drew me to it. It also slightly reminds me of the Japanese school uniform. I always wanted to be Sailor Moon so now I can live out my dreams haha. I'm wearing my pleated leather H&M skirt which I'm sure you all know I'm obsessed with. I was sent this absolutely gorgeous necklace from Astrid & Miyu. Its the perfect mixture of grunge & elegance which is kind of the aesthetic I've been going for recently. I'll always love pretty clothes but I like to use accessories to toughen up an outfit.

  25. That necklace is absolutely divine! Grunge and elegance definitely is the perfect description for it. It's the kind of style I like to go for too. I like the grungey 90s kind of style, but I'm also a total girly girl. I'd love to have an amazing statement piece like that!
