Holiday Lookbook | Spring Summer 2015

Hey,

Today’s post is going to be a spring/ summer lookbook from my holiday to the Dominican Republic. It was a beach holiday and was sunny all week so this is probably going to be summer themed. Here I have created just a few looks from my 10 day holiday, some day, some nights.

History of Fashion - 1950s | Collab with Glitter Melody

Hey,

So today’s post is going to be something new and different, so I hope you’ll enjoy it. I have always loved clothes and fashion since I was little and one area that I find particularly interesting is the history of fashion. Consequently, today’s post is a fashion post inspired by the 1950s! Furthermore, today’s post is a collab with the wonderful Hannah from the amazing blog Glitter Melody. Hannah has a great blog and one that it’s clear to see she works so hard on, so I would definitely recommend checking it out here!**** She does fab outfit posts and I love hearing her thoughts!

My Outfit: Lovely in Lace

Hey,

So today’s post is another instalment of ‘My Outfit’. This was actually the outfit I wore yesterday, but I loved it so much I wanted to show you. I wore this to a dressy/casual friend’s birthday meal and it was definitely something a little different for me.

This skirt was actually quite out of my comfort zone, and I’m so happy I decided to try something new. For me, my favourite thing to wear is a crop top matched with a skater skirt. This style of skirt holds the waist but is the flow-ey around the stomach. The skirt from Topshop is not like that, it is figure hugging and a straight style. I also think the lace skirt and lace cut-out on the top look fab together. I really like this look and I know that I’ll be wearing a lot when I go out for more dressy nights.

To see my post I did all about the shoes I'm wearing, just click here.

MyOutfit: Christmas Jumper | Blogmas Day 15

Hey,

So today’s post is going to be a new type of series. Similar to an OOTD, I want to create a series of ‘my outfit’ posts. I basically changed the way that I was doing these types of posts because I wanted them to be more like a series and I’ve decided that I dislike the phrase OOTD! I hope you like this, you’ll be seeing a few more soon I’m sure!

My outfit today is based on how I love to wear my Christmas jumper. Everyone has a festive jumper and they are perfect for this time of year for a simple look. My jumper isn’t too tacky or in your face, but this look can work with the fashion or cheesy type.

If you were wondering, my jumper has tiny little penguins and silver snowflakes on it and I choose it because it was subtle. I wanted something that I could style more, instead of a mad 3d creation-although they are super Christmas-sy and a laugh. The jumper is so soft and the grey colour makes it very wearable.

I styled my jumper with a black skirt and opaque black tights. The tights I am wearing are actually amazing because they are fleeced inside! This makes it so much easier to wear a skirt in winter! If you are really up for a novelty Christmas then why dont you wear a festive hat like my Christmas pudding one! Mines from Primark menswear. 

I am also wearing some shoes I am seriously excited for. I am very lucky ans I was recently bought these brown Chelsea boots after having wanted a pair for MONTHS. My Primark boots have finally given up and I wanted a neater less-casual pair for this winter. I love brown boots so much and adore this style but I hesitated because I wasn’t sure I could pull them off. However I eventually decided that I really did want them and I think they look so cute with these New Look frilled socks! I cant wait to wear them again and again!

And that is my outfit today. I hoped you like this post and will consider making an outfit similar with your Christmas jumper! I am feeling so festive at the moment as I begin to count down the days and I hope you are too! Have a great Monday,

OOTD: Summer Night + Floral Kimono | #summerstyle

So today's post is going to be an outfit post. I love reading these but I often find myself a bit unconfident in making them. However I was so excited to put together this outfit because recently I bought my first kimono. I adore the look of kimonos, and although I’ve owned similar garments, I have never had one myself. My kimono is black and floral, suiting well with my style, and is lined with tassels. I especially love how sheer this kimono is, so it is a great cover up on summer nights and is flattering because you can still see the body’s silhouette through.

Kimono- New Look £20

Crop Top- H&M £3.99

Skirt- H&M £12.99

Shoes- New Look OLD

Necklace- Dorothy Perkins OLD

Nails- Rimmel 60 seconds polish £3.69

Lips- No7 Lip Crayon ‘Delicate Pink’ £9.00

I love this outfit so much, I hope I will have a warm night to wear it on before autumn rolls around! Do you love kimonos? How would you style them? Have a wonderful week,

OOTD- smart/casual

Hey,

So this weekend I had a family meal and I thought I would just do a combination of my clothes and makeup, as an OOTD. This look is a high street priced, smart/casual evening look. I wore this to a birthday meal at a restaurant but it could also be worn to other occasions. What I like about this look is how affordable it is and how I think it really reflects my style.

My outfit-

Jersey Top- Primark - £8

Skater Skirt- H&M - £13

Tights- F&F

Nail Polish- Kelly Brooke @ New Look - £2.50?

Impulse Body spray- Sweet smile

Old perfume

Bag- Primark- £8

When I went out I also wore an old denim jacket.

I hope you liked this look, comment down below your thoughts. Have a lovely week, and I hope your March has begun well,

Valentines outfit ideas

Hey,

So this week holds a very special day in it- valentines day!

Although I am mostly grumpy on valentines day, it has to be said, I do still enjoy this day themed around love and romance. Today’s post and also Wednesday’s post will be themed around valentines day. Today is some outfit ideas and then Wednesday is all about make up! I hope you enjoy.

 

So I have split both outfit and make up idea into two sections. One is girly cute heart filled valentines day (very pink) and the other is more romantic/ date/ party themed.

So this is the first outfit. It is simple and casual, comfortable and easy to create. It exists of just some jeans/ jeggins, I had blue ones but you could swap this to any other colour. For a top I choose a heart top from new look. I have had this for ages, but you could choose any top with a heart theme for this valentines look. I finished the look with my pair of berry Converse.

The next still girly themed outfit is this. I choose this jumper, which I bought new this year from New Look, find it here at http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/tops/shell-pink-heart-print-3-4-sleeve-lightweight-top_29423517, which is a lightweight cream top/ jumper with black decorative heart details. I think this is perfect for valentines because it is cute but subtle. I had to wear a white top underneath though because the jumper/top was slightly see-through. Then to finish I added a denim skater skirt, nude tights and black shoes.

For the next outfit I choose this dress. It is grey with black floral pattern on it, with a skater like skirt on it. To accessorise I added a black cardigan and black bottie heels, with the alternative of adding berry and cream frilled socks (from Primark). This can be recreated with any dressy clothes/ dress you have and some simple accessorises.

The last valentines outfit is this one. It is all based on a skater skirt, which I have dressed up so it seems a little less casual. The black and floral skirt, from H&M http://www.hm.com/gb/product/22907?article=22907-B#article=22907-E , it is a simple skirt and I have just added a black strappy top, nude tights and black booties. Also because it is cold outside, I have added a woollen berry cardigan, which looks really cute and is so comfortable with the skirt! Overall I think this is perfect for a ‘date night’ as it isn’t casual but isn’t too dressed up.

 I hope you have been inspired by these ideas; I’d love to hear what you think. Please comment down below or share with Google+. Hope you are all well,
