Fall At Your Feet

Last Sunday I travelled down to Sheffield for an event I've been waiting ten whole years for - MCBUSTED. In all honestly I probably haven't listened to either Busted or McFly during that time but both bands will always hold a very special place in my heart. I'm sure I've mentioned my teenage stalking of them many times before. I even went to see James' musical Loserville in Leeds a couple of years ago. Nothing can compare to seeing them all live on stage together again though. Gotta admit, I did miss Charlie a teeny tiny bit but the show was completely amazing! They played so many good songs & I was happy that the ratio of Busted to McFly songs was in the former's favour. I especially liked the UFO performances because it was right near our seats. I had such a blast & I cannot wait for the much promised McBusted album. I was quite tempted to get a tour book but I ended up just getting a wristband from the merch stand because I spent most of my money on booze. £15 for 3 drinks?! I thought we were in Yorkshire!

So this what I wore for the concert. I spotted this dress in Urban Outfitters in Leeds a couple of weeks ago & snapped it up right away. I loved the combo of different sized gingham patterns & the collar adds such a cool 60s vibe to it. I go through phases of loving everything in Urban Outfitters & then not liking a single thing. At the moment I want so many things from there. I found this dress by Little White Lies on their website that Kay Hanley from Letters To Cleo wore on an episode of Parks & Rec. It's such an adorable vintage style Summer dress that's a bit 90s Courtney Love-esque. I'd best get saving my pennies for it! The Sheffield Motorpoint Arena was absolutely boiling inside so I'm glad I only took my thin leather jacket from Primark. This is one of my favourite items of clothing ever. It only cost me £10 & I've had it for yeeeeears. I decided to wear my Vans because I wanted to be comfy with all the dancing & jumping about. I'm pretty sure I spent most of the concert jumping up & down. It wouldn't have been right if I hadn't done a Busted-style jump or two!

  1. The dress is so gorgeous! I love gingham and the collar looks as if you've put a shirt underneath! I'm obsessed with Urban Outfitters at the moment as they sell some really cool brands which I haven't heard of anywhere else :)

  8. Ah you're making me want to go blonder! Love this outfit, and glad you had a good time at mcbusted! Shame about the pricey drinks though, I hate it when places rip you off because there's no way of buy it elsewhere.

  9. OH Caroline why are you doing this to me? I tried this dress on two weeks ago, and left it behind as I wasn't 100% on it (I'm not sure why - i think it was the fabric) but ever since then I've been rethinking about it and now I see you're wearing it and i'm like WAHH I THINK I DO NEED IT!!
    You look amazing in this xx

    I remember seeing Busted play live in Birmingham when I was 14, not everyone can say that was the first concert they went to. :P
