Hat- Topshop

Rainbow Crop Top- Vintage

Lace Bell Bottoms- Thriftette

Shoes- Jeffrey Campbell

Fringed Bag & Charm Bracelet- Southsea Flea Market 

I excitedly bought these beautiful bell bottoms from Thriftette a little while ago but have only just got round to posting this outfit! I was on the hunt for a pair for literally about 2 years but couldn't find any in the UK so was extremely over excited when I saw one of my faves Thriftette were selling some <3

Despite my boyfriend and several of my friends hatred for flares I still continue to love them and wanted to team them with lots of other 70s-esque items such as my floppy hat, fringed bag and chunky platforms.

Those of you who follow me on twitter (@helibells) may have seen my excited tweets about starting my own website. I'm planning on starting a little online clothes shop for my Final Major Project but also to carry on for when I finish uni. I will be selling amazing vintage clothes and accessories, remade vintage two pieces and kimonos, flower crowns and am also hoping to be stocking some amazing brands! I'm really hoping to get started ASAP so keep an eye out ;)

I'm freeeeeeeeee! I've finished my internship and done all my uni work and feel as free as a bird :D :D

To celebrate this fact I found myself in Oxford Street yesterday after assisting a shoot for the magazine (lethal for shopaholics) and treated myself to these bad boy sandals. I felt so guilty about buying them I was literally shaking but my travel expenses from travelling from Brighton to London had been reimbursed and I felt like I deserved it after a hard month interning so thought- sod it!

I'm not particularly keen on studs anymore but I can't seem to find any bags or belts without any on these days so had to make do with these. Anyway I'm back in Portsmouth now and only at uni for a few tutorials and final major project and dissertation briefing so have lots more time to blog/make stuff/be creative which I'm looking forward to. Now my body just needs to get out of the habit of waking up at 5 in the morning!

Two piece- Vintage

Platforms- eBay

Sunglasses- H&M

I wore this out for my best friends 21st birthday last night but didn't get a photo so dragged my hungover ass out of bed to take a photo especially because I love this crazy 80s/tacky barbie outfit SO much. I found it hanging up in my house ready to be taken to Southsea Flea Market but there was no way I was letting it go- it even comes with matching shorts too!

These shoes are all over the blogosphere right now and at £27.99 you can see why! They're so high but easy to walk in and didn't make my feet ache although did rub a little.

Only 4 more days left interning then I am basically finished at uni and moving back home so gonna get back into the swing of blogging and tings.

Yay a blog post! I was actually excited to go out and do a post today as I feel deprived from blogging lately. I mentioned in my last post that I have started interning at LOOK magazine where I have been getting up at 5.15am and travelling 3 hours a day from Brighton to London and it is absolutely killing me. I can't even begin to explain my exhaustion but I'm halfway through now so will go back to being a non zombie soon!

This is what I wore today to Southsea Flea Market which as most of you know is an event my mum runs and I help promote and we sell lots of vintage clothes and bits I make like flower crowns. I've had a few requests  to start selling my crowns online and just wanted to say that I'm hoping to start an online clothes business this summer and they will be part of it so fingers crossed it all goes well! I have lots of hopes and dreams for this business and can't wait to get it started. I just want to provide you all with beautiful clothes <3

Fishnet Top- H&M

Print Trousers- Charity Shop

Rainbow Shoes- Schuh

Sunglasses- Brighton Laines

A really quick post today as I'm busy trying to write a 2500 word essay and get everything ready for starting my internship at Look Magazine on Monday (eeee so nervous!)

I bought these trousers/leggings from a charity shop and they're actually size 20 but I never think much about sizing with old stuff as it's not really that big and you can usually do something with it to make it look more your size. With these I just pulled them up so they're high waisted and wore with a belt!

Not sure how much I am going to be posting during my 4 week internship as will be getting up at 5.30am and travelling 3 hours a day so am most probably gonna be shattered. Hopefully get to catch up with you guys on the weekends though :) wish me luck!

Lazy Daisy Dungarees- Waiste

Tie Dye Kimono & Turban- Topshop

Crochet Top- Charity Shop

Shoes- The White Pepper

Sunglasses- H&M

Heyyy remember me? feel like I haven't done an outfit post in ages :( A combination of being busy interning,  tiredness and lack of motivation has left me uninspired with outfit building but I'm back! for now anyway..

I'm definitely in my element when my outfits combine aspects of my two favourite eras; the 70s and 90s and I feel this outfit does just that. These lazy daisy dungarees are amazey and I've already worn them twice since receiving them on Friday. They are the perfect fit and I can't wait to wear them more in the summer. If you haven't already since the rest of Sara's beautiful new Waiste collection have a look here. I was torn between these, the paisley dungarees and the rainbow crochet jacket!

I'm seriously envious of all the people over at Coachella right now but if I'm honest the main reason why I want to go is because of the fashion not really because of the music. I wish we had the weather to dress Coachella style all year round!

There's a slight delay with an outfit photo of what I wore to the Missguided blogger house party as I foolishly forgot to take any on my camera so have stolen a couple from the lovely Sara and Laura.

These rainbow shoes are a DREAM. I've been on the hunt for some ever since I spotted them on my idols Jess and Stef but the Jeffrey Campbell versions seem to be sold out everywhere. Luckily I was speaking to a friend about them and she recommended these babies from Schuh and I couldn't be happier with them. They are really easy to walk in and are probably gonna be worn every day when it gets warmer. 

P.S still girl crushing over Sara.. watch this space because we have some big dreams. We WILL conquer UK fashion world muahaha xx
