Layer up!

I've kinda got a thing for layers, I always end up layering old blouses and throwing old concoctions together! This is an outfit I wore out for a fancy meal last week with a friend, we enjoyed some fine dining along with some lush cocktails! Cannot beat cocktails, they're my fave :-)

Summer loving

 

 

 

At last I can wear my ASOS skater dress. :) I got this back in March for my Birthday but I've not had chance to wear it until now because of the minging weather! Btw ignore my awful milk bottle legs (nothing a sun bed can't fix!)

I really like this dress with these clumpy cut out wedges and other reaaaaaally high shoes, but on me it doesn't look  right with flats which a bit of shame. It's probably due to my dwarfness that I've been blessed with :(! Other than that I love it as it's really light material along with the paisley duck egg print is perfect for summer!

It also doesn't really need any accessories to accompany it as the print talks for itself, (kinda cheaper too). I've just paired it with a small waist belt to break it up a bit.

Leave links below, I love following new blogs.. Thanks,

Rose Petals, Heartbreak... I was his Marilyn Monroe

I totally loooooove this oversized tee that I purchased from forever 21 a few months ago and the other day I really felt like wearing it again! Marilyn was such a beautiful women so I love that I can wear a bit of her on me when I wear this top! :D

As for these shoes... I recently blogged about them saying how much I wanted them. I originally found them in TOPSHOP for £55 which I thought was a reasonable amount of money. But as I do, I went onto eBay in search of a bigger bargain and found THE EXACT same ones for £29.99 which you can find HERE :D sweeeeet!

This outfit didn't have much colour to it so I added the bright necklace to it. This was from Primark which I purchased a few days ago. I never really like Primark jewellery but I thought this was pretty nice for such a small price tag. :)

A dungaree thing.

I love the dungaree trend that's flying about at the moment. It seems to be hitting all the high street stores in all colours and fabrics. I certainly will be wearing the dungaree trend out during V festival in August with my Wellingtons of course. :)

Alexa Chung and Jameela Jamil have amazing style and would probably look good wearing a bin bag and when it comes to dungarees there's no change, they both look great! I especially love the denim, acid wash Alexa Chung shows off and the over sized boyfriend blazer Jameela Jamil pairs with the child-like shorts. 

 

 

 

The dungaree style seems so effortless and classic and is easy to dress up or down depending on the accessories and shirt paired with it. Denim dungarees seem a more casual look to go for, whereas the black tailored dungaree paired with a classic cream blouse would look a lot more dressy.

Jeans Day

This is an outfit I wore the other day when going out for a casual meal with a friend. My hair looks slightly weird on the pictures as I've had a full fringe but I hate it so much so trying to grip it back each day is a nightmare and looks a lil messy! Grow hair, grow!

I have recently purchased this blouse from H&M for £14.00. I love the faded look so it's not to in your face and can be worn day-to-day. I layered it up with what was a leather jacket but I got bored one day and did a bit of DIY on it and cut the shoulders off. Can't get much more tight than that - just watching my money that's all haha!:)

These are also new jeans from zara..I was in desperate need for some more jeans and for £20 I couldn't go wrong. They also do the same cut in white which I'm definitely going to purchase for le summer!:)

I loooooove these earrings that I have in, I got given them for my birthday last year and still wear them so much! Gotta love over sized earrings.

(sorry for the blur that's come out with my pictures - my cam is a bit/a lot broke.)

Bikinis for the summer!

This summer I'm off to Zante (excited is an understatement!) only 73 days to go! :D I've began my holiday shopping and looking at all the gorj bikinis is making me want to get on that beach now!!!

This year the 50's bikini seems to be high on trend with cupped halter-neck bras and high wasted pants. I'm not that keen on these pants myself as they really dont suit my figure and I look mega stupid. :( I'm more into the frilly bandeau bikinis that were very popular last year and have came back around again this summer. Here are some of my favourites>>>

1. Seahorse ruffle bikini - ASOS - £32

2. Triangle bikini with 3D roses - ASOS - £28

3. Ruffle bikini - F&F at Tesco - £13

4. exoic parrot print bikini - Playful promises -  £60

I think I'm a sucker for blue and red/coral this year :)

Primark also has some really pretty bikinis this year, I've just got a bandeau leopard print one from there for £13 for the set!:D

I loooooove holiday shopping!!!!
