Peppermint Penny

Jumper - Topshop

Pleather Skirt - H&M

Plimsolls - New Look

Nail Varnish - Topshop "Venus Fly Trap"

So I realise that I've been a completely useless blogger recently...a thousand apologies...things have been absolutely crazy busy in my work, personal and home life over the last couple of weeks AND then I went to Valencia for a week so I haven't had time to breathe let alone blog, but now I'm back!

This is the outfit I wore for an all day birthday bbq last weekend and I love it! The cropped jumper is the first piece of clothing I've bought from Topshop in foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and, although I have no idea what possessed me to pair it with the least summery item in my wardrobe, I quite like the look of the soft minty knit with the structured pleather.

As it was a bbq heels definitely weren't an option so I threw on my New Look plimsolls. These have been glued to my feet since I picked them up for a bargain £9.99 last week and they're super comfy, perfect for dancing on the tables...but that's a whole other story!

I've got a couple of mega life changes coming up over the next month or so and may be pretty sporadic with my blogging but if you're at all interested to know what I'm up to, please check out my YouTube channel for update videos!

Hope you're all having a lovely week, fingers crossed for continued sunshine!

The Archtops

 

 

Dress - H&M

Boots - New Look (sale)

Socks - Primark 

Nails - Rita Ora for Rimmel "Oragasam"

Last weekend Dan and I took a little trip to Southend to watch our friends band "The Archtops" play. The weather was glorious and balmy when we left so tights and a coat weren't even considered...but at the seaside it was frigging ARCTIC and super windy so in hindsight it might have been a wise idea to wrap up!

If I'm honest, H&M may have been partly to blame for my lack of common sense and warm clothing. I picked up this little jem of a dress for £14.99 the other day and with it's chunky stripe print, shift shape and high neck it was too beaut to hide...

The gig was amaaaaaazing and we had the best night ever. There are no words for how musically talented those boys are, they had everyone up dancing and singing along in no time! They're playing a couple of wicked dates over the Summer so if you're at all interested, do check them out HERE.

Growing Up Easy

Dress - Missguided (last year) 

Boots - New Look (sale) 

Hair - Babyliss Hair Extensions in "Light Blonde"

It's getting to that point in my life when I'm starting to realise that my friends are growing up. Over the last 12 months things have started to change. Nights out have been replaced with mid week bookclub, vodka and skittles swapped for wine and cheese, weddings are being planned, houses bought and the some are even having children!

Last Sunday was the day of my friend Rachel's baby shower. A day to officially confirm that she will soon become a mother and is therefore more grown up than the rest of us put together! It's absolutely terrifying and totally amazing in equal measure.

In my mind baby showers are a bit of a nondescript when it comes to dress code and quite tricky to dress for, but in the end I opted for this old Missguided skater dress. It was on my lust list for Summer 2013 but by the time I finally got my hands on it, the weather had turned and the poor thing's been sitting in my cupboard waiting for it's moment ever since!

My ratty old hair extensions made a reappearance *mental note - must buy a new set soon* and I topped the the whole look off with my New Look stomper boots to stop it becoming EVEN MORE frothy and girlie.

The whole day was lovely. We ate baby food, chose baby names, unwrapped presents and serenaded the momma to be with tunes from Frozen before heading home clutching our party bags!


I can't wait to meet the little one (not long now!) and with aunties like these it's going to be the best dressed bub around!

In Love With Ginger

Fedora - Miss Selfridge

Dress - gift (originally Urban Outfitters I think...maybe...)

Boots - New Look sale HERE

This is my absolute favourite kind of outfit.
You can never go wrong with a minidress and chunky boots - FACT.

Dress it up/dress it down/hot weather/cold weather, it's the most adaptable look ever and practically my unofficial uniform!

This dress is both sweet and sexy at the same time with the combination of the zip detail and flippy girlie skirt so to toughen it up I put it with my chunky worker boots from New Look. I'm still completely in love with them and noticed they're now only £14 on the NL website goddamit!

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend

Country Girl Take My Hand

Dress - Zara (sale)

Boots - New Look (sale) HERE

Necklace - Bohemian Collective HERE (DIYed to be a necklace)

The weather was so amazing the other weekend when I was at my parents house that Hector and I couldn't resist heading out to the fields to take some outfit photos of my favourite new pieces. 

This dress was something I'd had my eye on for a while when I saw it on the Zara website a couple of months ago. Although it's not at all my usual style it really caught my eye. The price tag was pretty hefty so I put it to the back of my mind...until...I saw it crop up on Instagram for the sale price of £12.99... Cue frantic phone calls to friends who could pop to Zara as it had totally sold out online!! My amazing friend Lydia came up with the goods and managed to find me a size M (I'd say a 10-12) whch is a perfect fit! It's just as beautiful in the flesh as it was online and I'm so happy that I managed to get my paws on it. 

My boots are another sale bargain from New Look and I'll be putting up a haul video very soon which features these bits and other beauties so take a leaf out of our book and keep an eye out for that...!

I hope you're all having a beautiful weekend!

The Big Pink

Coat - "vintage"

Trousers - COS (gift)

Boots - New Look sale HERE 

T Shirt - COS (gift)
Necklace - Zara 

If 2014 was the year for stepping outside of my comfort zone this coat is one of the biggest leaps I'll probably take! 

Unless you've lived under a rock for the last couple of months you can't have failed to notice that pink coats have been THE trend for AW2014. Although I love the look of them I am reluctant to buy something that I may only wear for a season or so but then this little beauty came into my life...for free!

I'm going to call it "vintage" but it's a hand-me-down from my Granny. Having admired it over Xmas I was only too pleased when she casually passed it onto me!

It's bright pink and fleecy...really not my cup of tea but there's something about it that I was instantly drawn to. What do you think? 

Teamed with messy hair and a simple outfit I think it's the perfect nod towards the current neon trend for SS14 and yes I've finally jumped on that bandwaggon. Pink Ladies together.

3 Years and Counting...

Sequin T Shirt - Matalan

Jeans - New Look similar HERE

Boots - Primark similar HERE

Fedora - Miss Selfridge similar HERE

Scarf - ASOS similar HERE

This is what I wore to celebrate mine and Dan's 3 year anniversary. I don't think either of us can honestly believe that it's been that long!!

We decided to go out for a low key curry HERE and it was totally amazing! Apparently the Beckham clan ate there a couple of weeks ago (there was plenty of photo evidence) so if you're ever in the area do check it out as it comes very highly recommended.

Date night is a chance to dress up so I popped on this sequin t shirt (from the Matalan sale last year) and my ripped New Look jeans. Paired with my faux suede chelsea boots from Primark this is the most perfect outfit for a celebratory curry evening!

Hope you're all having a lovely Saturday evening! I'm spending the weekend at my parents house in the country and am currently wrapped up in my onesie, in front of the fire, waiting for The Voice and Take Me Out...#perfectsaturdaynight

As The Crow Flies

Cropped Jumper - Primark similar HERE and

Belt- Primark

Dipped Hem Skirt - New Look similar HERE

Boots - Matalan

I wore this outfit to a late "Christmas" party the other weekend. Paired with a slash of dark lipstick and messy hair it's suddenly become one of my favourite outfits of late.

Yes I know it's similar to my previous outfit post - monochrome ft a white, cropped Primark jumper - but I just love how simple and effective it is with the contasting colours, textures and lengths between the jumper and skirt.

You could pair this basic combination with converse and a messy bun or a fedora and fishtail plait to style it up or down.

Rings - Ebay HERE

Of course no outfit is complete without accessories and for this I matched my belt buckle to my rings for gold accents.

These rings. There are no words.

I saw Kavita from She Wears Fashion wearing a similar set and managed to get my paws on these ones from trusty old Ebay! FYI the "one size fits all sizing" is liessssssssssssssssssssssssssss...half of them are too big for me, so to avoid them flying off my fingers mid-twerk I squeezed some of them tighter with pliers. Sorted!

Camo Kid

Jeans - New Look HERE

Camo Jacket - New Look sale

Boots - Ebay HERE

Faux Fur - Ebay HERE

Fedora - Miss Selfridge HERE

Cross Ring - Ebay HERE

I'm a born and bred "Army brat" and have always associated camouflage with my dad and the military life that I've lived. In my opinion it's something to be respected and worn only by those who have earned it...but then some fashion genius decided that it could be worn by anyone anywhere...

This is the only piece of camouflage I own, it took forever find and for me it's perfect. It's a simple, oversized camouflage shirt. No tacky militia buttons or badges or shoulder detail. That's it. Plain and simple. Respectful. 

In a funny sort of way it's almost subtle especially when paired with different textures such as my fave faux fur collar and Chloe wannabe booties. A subtle nod to fashion and family in one snug little Autumn outfit.
