Her fav'rite midnight haunts

 
Striped top: £30, Aubin and Wills. Corduroy skirt: £15, American Apparel via ebay. Socks: Internatçionale. Patent loafers: £15, Russell and Bromley via ebay.

Despite barely having a moment to myself (which means to just sit and catch up on Gossip Girl with a hot chocolate) it kind of feels like I've done hardly anything recently. Since my last post I've finished exams (Victorian literature did not go well. It probably didn't help that about thirty people left to go to the toilet, seriously??), got back the marks of last semester's assessed essays (they were much better), and went to Cambridge for the weekend. But now I'm back in Liverpool and am officially halfway through my degree; this thought has resulted in many a breakdown and existential crisis, so nothing too dramatic.

These photos were taken by Jazzy during a cute lunch date when I was home over Christmas. Making the suburban look rad is our day job.

  1. You look fantastic :) I hope that your exams went well and that you get the grades you want. I've got a year of my degree left but I'm starting to panic as well. It's pretty scary.

  33. Why, Ms Cohen, is that Aubin & Wills I spot there? Funny coincidence! What do you study actually, can't recall ever asking you this! But I hope your results (and mine, my exams were so dreary) turn out fine! What is that with people being unable to wait for an hour or two to go to the toilet, never got that either..

    ReplyDelete
  34. Maybe they were all in on some sort of mass cheat conspiracy? Or maybe the toilets were a sort of Harry Potter esque port hole into Victorian times...
    I sound ridiculous but I'm not going to delete this!
    Alas I love your outfit, I have a thing for stripes at the moment.

    You probably did better in the exam than you thought, and well done on the marks you got back! Don't worry about the mini breakdown, I've nearly finished my degree and I'm constantly having one, I think it must be part and parcel of student life!

  63. Oh, I hate barely having a moment to myself ... some wear busyness as a badge of pride, but honestly, I think some leisure in solitude is so important too, least to someone like me. Belated thanks for your sweet comment! <3 I'm afraid I didn't get a post in by Christmas, after all, not even close, though I've made a couple this week, and I've chosen to make shorter entries, so I can post more frequently.

    Hope you're well.

  73. Aw, this was a really nice post. In idea I would like to put in writing like this additionally – taking time and actual effort to make a very good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and by no means seem to get something done.###
