Fedora - Topman sale similar HERE

Cardigan - Charity Shop

T shirt - COS

Leggings - H&M (old)

Converse - Office

This cardigan might be my best EVER charity shop find! 

I spied it whilst browsing through the Bristol charity shops with my sister over the Easter weekend and was instantly smitten! From the colours to the oversized shape and the fluffy texture of the knit, it's perfect and only cost me a measly £15!!

I like to think I don't own many "marmite" love/hate items...but turns out this definitely is one. Although I couldn't think of anything more beautiful it has actually made some people gag!

Are you a lover or a hater?

Sunshine On My Window Makes Me Happy

Cropped Jumper - Primark

Anklet (worn as necklace) - The Bohemian Collective HERE

Dress- Primark

Converse - Office HERE

The weather in England has been absolutely amazing for the last week or so. Blue skies and sunshine pretty much every day! Annoyingly all my summer clothes are bagged up and hidden away for "summer" so I've been having to put together warm weather outfits out of my Autmn/Winter wardrobe.

This skater dress from Primark has already featured on my blog HERE and I was obsessed with this cropped jumper over the Christmas period (see HERE ) so I thought why not combine the two! I think the flouncy skater skirt of the dress mixed with the cream jumper really lends itself to spring/summer and of course a floral/cream colour palette is just perfect for this kind of weather. This kind of outfit could really easily be adapted for cold weather with ankle boots and black tights but I decided to tone down it's femininity with dirty ole converse!

Typically, having boasted about how amazing the weather is, whilst sitting here typing this up all I can see outside is grey sky and people putting up their umbrellas...

Laura Ralph

Two Piece - Laura Ralph 

Clutch - gift similar HERE

Shoes - Matalan similar HERE 

If you've seen my recent HAUL VIDEO you may have already seen this amazing two piece I got from Laura Ralph! I've been following her on Facebook for a while, biding my time and waiting for the perfect fabric to appear so as soon as I saw this beautiful grey oriental style print I jumped on it! The price for a trouser set is £35 inc p&p and as they're made to order there's an estimated ten day delivery time...but it's soooo worth the wait!

I ordered my set in a 10 - 12 and the only gripe I have is that the top is a little teeny for my 34DD chest so I would definitely advise sizing up if possible if you're on the busty side. The trousers are perfection and can easily be worn by themselves. They're high waisted, elasticated and suprisingly there's not even an inkling of camel toe! 

Originally I was planning to save this outfit for the perfect occasion but I've had it for nearly 2 months now and I just couldn't wait to wear it any longer! Ideally I'd be toned and tanned...I'm definitely not yet but I still love it and can only look forward to how much better it will look when I am in shape! In summer I want to style it with coloured accessories and a flower crown so you'll definitely be seeing this again. 

Do go check out Laura's Facebook page HERE to see if anything tickles your fancy! I'm already on the look out for a summer short set...

Love Will Tear Us Apart - OOTN

This dress is flying round the blogisphere at the moment! Every single blogger and You Tuber in their right mind has got their hands on one of these badboys and I for one can completely understand the hype. They cost £12, fit like a dream and have a Topshop worthy print that flatters every complexion!

My dress had it's first formal outing the other night when we headed out for my boyfriend's birthday supper, and it passed the food baby test with flying colours!

Dress - Primark

Boots - Matalan HERE

Lipstick - Kate Moss for Rimmel no 107 HERE

I've seen it worn with heels, hats and collars but I decided to wear mine with my current favourite stompy boots. They were a bargain buy from Matalan and I've been living in them for the last month or so. They have cut outs at the heels which I'm not a fan of but if I wear them with plain black socks only the eagle eyed would notice!

Do any of you have one of these dresses? I'd love to know how you'd style it!

OOTD: Greek Beach Party

Top - New Look

Shorts - Primark 

Shoes - New Look

Sunglasses - H&M 

The final part of the wedding was the party on the beach on Sunday..errr...WOW! The happy couple had hired out a breathtaking bay for the party complete with bar and food stalls.

Having spent 3 days celebrating it was nice to relax with the friends we'd made throughout the wedding and we spent the sunny afternoon in and out of the sea, drinking cocktails and prancing round in our personalised wedding t shirts! 

So long Greece, it was a pleasure!

Now I'm back to England *sob* and work *sob*...meh. What did you all think of these posts? I hope they were interesting, back to normal English outfit posts against mediocre backgrounds very soon!

OOTD: Greensleeves

Who doesn't love a lark in the park on a Sunday?!

Fisherman Jumper - Matalan 

Shorts - River Island (old)

Pumps- Primark similar HERE

Winter on the top, summer on the bottom - kind of perfect for this changeable weather!

TMLP Barry M Lipstick - buy HERE

The lipstick I'm wearing is my latest obsession, the new Barry M "Touch of Magic" lip paint. 

It's bright green in colour in the tube but once on your lips turns a bright pink colour...abracadabra..."you're a wizard Harry!" Retailing at just under £5 I would recommend it just for the novelty alone to be honest but the flash of colour adds an interesting touch to even the most boring of outfits

It goes on a bright fuchsia kind of colour which grows darker for about 5 - 10 minutes and has a matte finish. As someone who doesn't suit bright lip colours, this one is perfect for me as it adapts slightly to suit your skin tone and looks good on absolutely everyone! 

Check it ouuuuuuuuuutttttttttttttt

Would love to know if any of you have tried this or similar "magic" lipsticks!

OOTN: Can't Catch A Rainbow

Heading out for a slap up birthday supper for  my "mother-in-law" on Saturday night

Dress - Apricot (v old, inherited from a friend)

Belt - Primark

Clutch - Ralph Lauren 

Boots - Mr Shoes (out of stock on that site and cannot find them in stock on any other sites :( keep your eyes peeled!)

Love this dress! It hides all your lumps and bumps but allows you to show as much or as little shoulder as your want so you don't end up looking like a total pudding. Turns out it's pretty see through in direct sunlight but hey ho. You win some you lose some!

These Lita style boots are my shoe saviours! I bought 3 different pairs last years for c£35 from Truffle and they are worth every penny. Pretty much identical to the JC's they are seriously comfy and easy peasy to walk, run and even jump in all evening long. I also have the paisley and the matte black faux leather ones and wouldn't be without them! Can't find these aztec print babies anywhere online at the moment but always worth doing a scout round the web every couple of weeks if you really want a pair.

We had a lovely evening. Stuffed ourselves with deliiiiiiiiiish Greek food and had to be rolled home and into bed!

Bloggers Lookbook: May 2013

The Little Magpie - Getting On ABit 

Photo belongs to Amy - http://amybell-thelittlemagpie.blogspot.co.uk

Amy's blog is one of my absolute favourite reads. The outfits she wears on a daily basis are always totally unique and eclectic pulled together with statement jewellery and amaaaaaazing hair but this post really stood out for me. 

A DIY safety pin dress that Liz Hurley would be jealous of, cut out boots and a fedora for an all-black beaut of a look in themselves but mixed with cowboy jewellery and a to-die-for kimono...top of the class Amy! 

Sara Luxe - Choies Choice

Photo belongs to Sara - http://www.saraluxe.com When I was younger I wanted to be a witch. Sadly this was not to be, but if it had been, this is exactly the kind of stylish all black outfit I would wear! 

Sara's looks are always effortlessly cool and she mixes slightly "out-there" pieces with high street staples in a way which turns me green with envy. This little dress with cobwebby type shoulder detail paired with chunky lace up boots and quirky glasses is still making me dribble a month later!

LLYMLRS - Celia Birtwell x Uniqlo 

Photo belongs to Lily - http://www.llymlrs.com

Anyone who follows Lily's blog will be aware of her undying love for monochrome outfits. I'm not a massive fan of the look on myself but Lily pulls it off with aplomb by choosing unusual pieces and accessories to add to otherwise simple outfits. 

This look is my all time favourite posts of hers. Those incredible trousers are paired with a plain cold shoulder t shirt to keep all the focus on their print and vibrant colour - love love loveeeeee Lily! 

What do you think of the bloggers looks I've chosen?

OOTD: Camel Racing

The title of this post is no joke. 

On Monday we travelled to a field in the middle of nowhere to go to a country fair type event with ferris wheel, candyfloss, dog shows and...yes...camel racing! 

I have honestly never seen anything like it! Camels are bloody enormous, definitely a lot bigger than I thought they were and they tower over a 6ft human. The jockeys were more used to riding ponies in gymkhanas than these mighty "ships of the desert" and looked absolutely terrified. As soon as they were mounted the camels were raring to go and then they were off!!

I do like camels. They have eyelashes to die for. But I don't want one as a pet. Thanks but no thanks.

Jacket - Primark (v old) with the sleeves hacked off

Dress - River Island £12 in the sale!

Hope you all had a b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l bank holiday weekend!

Video: Get Ready With Me for Field Day Festival May 2013

check it outttttt HERE

The Bank Holiday weekend was craaaaaazy good!

I went to Field Day Festival in Hackney on Saturday for a friends birthday. The weather was set to be wet and cold but we actually had beautiful sunshine alllll daaaaaaay. Honestly, there is nothing better than sitting outside drinking in the sunshine with your friends...bliss

So I got up at 7 am to make a "get ready with me" video before I left! Hell yes, that's dedication right there. I love these kinds of vids so thought I'd have a go at making my own. It's not the most interesting but if you fancy checking out how I did my make up/hair for the day check it out HERE

Princess Peach

Who amongst us didn't want to be a princess when they were little? 

For most of us that was never going to happen and 10 years on we're just happy in our own little lives...but hold your horses...don't give up on the dream just yet...

Crowns are making a comeback!

I need one of these on my head pronto! 

Can definitely picture myself strolling around town wearing one of these with a plain t shirt dress and chunky boots. Of course you'd get a couple of odd looks, but know that deep inside all the too-cool-for-school teenage girls would be green with envy.

All photos belong to www.regalrose.co.uk

Regal Rose is the place to head to if you want to pick up one of these little beauties! They are selling "Arwen" ombre lace crowns in turquoise, purple and pink for £24 - a bargain of a price for something which could lead you to bag your Prince Charming!

Check out their full range of princess goodness HERE. 

Does anyone else fancy joining the Crown Cult with me?
