I'm obsessed with the mess that's America

Sup' guys :)

Well, this has been quite a lovely week for the British! Last week I was wearing a thick coat and scarf and this week I'm proper wacking the shorts out, and actually leaving my house WITHOUT A COAT. 
For those of you who don't live in the UK, we all go crazy when we get a little sun and temperature over 15 degrees! haha (and get sabotaged by greenflies)
Anyways, to the may focus of this post-Americana Trend! I have always loved the 90's style, denim look and am currently obsessed with this fad. Especially after watching this week's Frock Me episode.

My favourite part of Frock Me is when Gemma wanders the streets of a city (this week Birmingham) i think British fashion is one of the main reasons I am proud of my nationality.
Seriously think this girl should have been choosen, I love the detailing of the brooches and that cardi is fierce :D
I also loved this girls hair and pinstripe blazer 

I really want to go to Birmingham, meerly for people watching!
