The Wombats & A New Dress

4 October 2015

My legs look very weird here, please excuse them.
I didn't schedule my post right and the post is all ready, in my drafts  to be posted and it just didn't post god damn. It's not that significant of a post though at all, but it will be up this Wednesday if all goes according to plan. Does anyone else find it really hard to blog during school though? I never check bloglovin enough or my blog or do anything blog related during the week. It's anoying, I need to find a way to fit it into my schedule I guess, not that I really have a schedule.

This week though, on Thursday I went to see The Wombats at Alexandra Palace and oh man they were incredible. They didn't talk much to us, like you know at a concert the performers will tell you little stories and things on stage, they didn't really. Well a bit, but not much, but it didn't really bother me because of how amazing they are live. They sound exactly like they do on recordings and it was just so much fun, and it was all standing but me and my friend had a good spot. Until some girls came along and stood in front of us who smelt kind of really bad. Also, there was no space for them. It really annoys me at gigs when you say people trying to get through the crowd but there's nowhere for them to go and they just stop there. Sometimes you can weave your way through to the front and I don't mind that, but when people try and you all know they have no hope so they just stop right in front of you. There were a few of those during the concert but it was okay, there was one really annoying guy but he went away before they actually came on stage. I really like Ally Pally as a venue though and there was the cutest photobooth thing, it was in a car and the background was all flowers and it was just adorable. Plus there was 10 seconds between pictures which gave us a lot of time to choose props which is always handy.

Firstly, sorry for the blur. My camera is very temperamental. Secondly I used a new editing software for these (fotor free download) and I hated it so now I'm back to Picasa.
Coat-Asos    |  Dress-Asos  (not the same dress)  |  Tights-Primark  |  Shoes-Vagabonds
I'm not sure if the coat link is the right one becuase mine wasn't that expensive but they look exactly the same. Also I couldn't find my dress on Asos so I just linked to you to a pretty dress)
The outfit I'm showing you here isn't actually from the concert. It's what I wore today (I'm typing this the day before I'm actually wearing this outfit woah got to get them tenses right) for my friends birthday. She didn't do much just like films and food and chilling, and it was nice because people we no longer go to school with were there.

I got this dress from Asos a while ago, I really want a plain black nice dress and just can't find one which is weird because I thought they would be easy. However, I found this dress which I just think is adorable. I love wearing dresses and this one is good because it's baggy but not flowwy, which means it's safe to wear in a windy environment, which is an excellent quality for a dress to have. Although this dress is quite summery (imagine it with no tights and a big floppy hat-nice) I think it's still good for winter with my Asos coat on over the top and with my Vagabonds. It's quite a thin material though, so maybe not winter wear but can definitely be worn in Autumn. 

Another little life update, I had a job interview yesterday, so fingers crossed I get the job! Anyway, that's it for today. Hopefully my post will go up on Wednesday, but who knows. I hope you've all had a good week!

  2. Ah I've been wanting to go to a gig at Ally Pally for ages now, and considering how close I live to it, it's almost embarrassing I've not been for a concert there before! This is a really cute dress, and in general this is a great outfit to wear for a gig. Good luck with the job, hope you get it :) x

    1. Ah than you! Ah you should go, it's quite a good venue. Although I prefer Brixton but Ally Pally is good but you have to get fairly close to be able to see x

    1. Thank you! Oh that's so annoying I hate when tight season is over and I feel the need to have hairless legs (not that you need to but I just prefer to not have hairy legs in summer) but now it's winter nobody will know ahah x

  7. Who knew it would be so hard to find a nice black dress, that does sound like something that would be easy to find! I love this one though, the print is fab! Glad you had a good time at the gig too!
