Bedroom DIY

Hey guys! Finally I found something to blog about, I’ve been kind of lost for a little while in terms of fashion. My outfits recently have consisted of a lot of jeans and trainers...nothing exciting! Although the same can't be said for my room. Why is it when you have a million and one things to do you always seem to distract yourself with something ridiculous like re-decorating your room! I'm constantly looking on Pinterest for DIY inspo and cute bedroom ideas and this is what I have came up with! I thought the easiest way to do this is take lots of pics of my little set ups and talk through them and tell you guys where I got things etc!  



So...I have two sets of white drawers from Ikea (not 100% sure what they are called) bursting with hundreds clothes! 


I have stacked some copies of my favourite Vogue issues and placed a couple of little trinkets on top. A picture of me and my friends, the frame is from Tiger. Another picture of me and my friend in New York last year, the frame is just for polaroid pictures from Urban Outfitters. A cute little elephant that I got when I was on holiday in Portugal, a mini Eiffel Tower that I bought when I was in Paris and a pink champaign flute that my auntie bought me for my 21st Birthday. I really love this little collection of trinkets because each one has a very special memory attached to it.  


I thought I would tell you guys just why these are my favourite Vogue issues. The top on is my ultimate fav its a September 1994 issue (the month/year I was born) the BEST birthday present my boyfriend has ever bought me. The second is a Spanish Vogue that I purchased when I was studying in Madrid. And the last two are just ones that I really really enjoy reading over and over again! 


And on the right hand side I have a little display of my favourite fashion books. A book about Vivenne Westwood (that I haven't actually read yet!), An amazing book by Lucy Siegle that I recommend EVERYONE that is intreseted in fashion to read it is such an eye opening book, Alex Chung's It ... If you havent read this ... Where the fuck have you been?!, Bringing Home the Birkin is the most wonderful holiday, easy-read book I have read it soo many times. Finally, Confessions of a Fashionista which I have yet to read but I will be taking it on holiday! 


I have actually had this feature for a while in my room and added to it over the years. Changing the pictures every so offten. I'm not going to go through this too much but I have purchaed frames from ... B&M, Home Bargins, The Range, Urban Outfitters, Paperchase and Tiger! 


Finally, the newest addition to my room is this wall... 


Now this is totally inspired by Pintrest! It's a mix of prints ("but first coffee." from Paperchase and the Chanel perfume bottle is from a market in Paris), poloroid pictures and shopping bags from my favourite brands. I really love this wall I feel like it makes a great feature! 




Well I hope you have all enjoyed this short and sweet blog post! Sorry for the lack of posts I've been super busy with work and FINISHING UNI! 

Lots of Love
