FOREVER 21 HAUL yay

Hey - so my clothes came like a week ago, and my friend took some photos for me today of me modelling them so I thought I would do a little post. Just a note: I am returning a couple of items that don't fit me, so I won't be showing them.

I got most of these in the sale, for £1.99 or something similar, but I paid full price for a couple of them, although they were still cheap.

So first off, we have this crochet floaty black top, which I think would look perfect with a bandeau underneath, or a swimming costume. It is really pretty and delicate, and you can also see my shorts which I will talk about next!

 So I really love these bohemian/festival style bombshell shorts which I think are very cool and really good for fall. (I know, summer is nearly over, :'( ) The reviews said to get a size up from your usual, but I got my normal size and they were a tad big, so I am not sure what's up with that!

I am also wearing a crop top in the colour 'Tomato Red' which I think fits very nicely and is quite a bright, fun colour.
Finally, I got this striped crop top in burgundy and heather grey, and these casual sweatpants, also in grey, which I cannot find on the website, but I have linked the most similar pair. I like both the crop top and sweatpants because they are both very simple and casual, and are good for lounging around in or if you want to look relaxed.

You may also notice my hair is no longer turquoise/pink/peach/purple and has gone back to it's bleached blonde state. I may cut it off/ dye it brown / leave it, I'm not sure yet.

we were liars

NOTE: The 100 was not good (in my opinion so I am not going to bother reviewing it).

We
Were
Liars

This book is pretty amazing, I don't really want to tell you anything about it at all because I think it is best if you read it without knowing anything about it. I thought I could share some of my favourite quotes from it with you, though.

sheerhearts:

Be a little kinder than you have to be.

So gorgeous! than you have to be



Another antagonistic quote from We Were Liars.  I don’t really believe in normal. 

We Were Liars

Now go and read the book please thank you very much. I really want people to read it. I don't know how I feel about it.

I read Eleanor&Park, it was a bit of a let down but I will still review it.

books i want to read

SO books on Kindle were really cheap today - probably an average of £1.50? So I thought I would buy one. Or three.

I got The 100 which is a dystopian novel about 100 prisoners who are sent back to earth after humans have been living on a space ship style thing for quite some time. I have just started this and it isn't shaping up to be all that good but I will persevere.


Next book is one I am really excited about reading, We Were Liars by E. Lockhart. I am not quite sure what it is about, I have read the first couple of pages, but it is highly recommended and from the first couple of pages I get a good feeling for the book. The style is vaguely similar to More than This, by Patrick Ness, and that was a great book so I am really excited to read this one.



















Finally, Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell, this book has been recommended to me several times, and a friend recently read it and enjoyed it. I have read Fangirl, by the same author and thought that was a pleasant read, so I am quite excited for this book too, even if romance is not my forte.



















I will maybe-possibly-probably write a review for each one, after I have read them, although that is quite a dedication to make so let's see if I do.
