Mom Jeans Summer Outfit.

festival specs // prêt-a-portobello + top, part of co-ord set // celeb look mom jeans // new look flossys If you don’t own flossys, you should really ask yourself why. They are the most comfortable plimsoles for the heat and they come in so many colours and patterns that they work with any outfit. As for the mom jeans, I brought these in the sale for the reduced price of £12 and they are now only £10. New Look is always quite good for sales because everything gets so far reduced before it goes out of stores and offline which makes for a fashionable wardrobe on a budget. I’m absolutely worn out today. I have worked two long shifts this weekend at work and barely had any sleep. I know this is like half of a normal persons working week but I’m not used to it and supermarkets are draining…

Knitted Pleated Skirt, Simple Monochrome Outfit.

necklace // primark cropped tee // custom florence and fred mens tee (simila pleated knit skirt // primark petrol docklands // asos Yes, I am slightly wishing away the summer by dressing in a knitted skirt, but the weather is hardly helping. Just as I took these pictures it began to storm over with thunder and lightening – which would have looked cool in an outfit post but it stopped me getting any better images. Is anyone else finding the weather to be an outfit-picture-taking nightmare? This skirt was a £3 buy from Primark a couple of years a go but I’d never really been able to style it well so it just laid in my drawer collecting dust. However, when I realised the simplicity of styling it with something as easy as a white crop it worked. I quite like that the necklace and shoes are more of a…

Motel Rocks Striped Shirt and Fluffy Jumper.

fluffy cropped jumper // motel rocks striped shirt // motel vintage + white jeans // h+m These two Motel pieces are ones which I received as a thank you for helping out at the vintage event last week – how gorgeous are they? I had so much fun going around the samples and vintage to find pieces which would work well with my current wardrobe. This fluffy jumper will be perfect through Winter because of the super soft and warm feel of the material. I’ve had such a busy weekend with work so I am glad to finally be free for a while, its nice to know that I have a week of packing and getting ready to move – which I am so excited for! I can’t wait to move into the new house with some of my best friends and have lower rent to afford more clothes.. priorities!

All Pastel Pink Outfit.

lipstick // saint germain, mac eyelash lace bralet // celeb look + pvc wrap skirt // lauren pope collection, in the style + stressed clutch // zara chunky heels // truffle via ebay So if there was ever an outfit on my blog which made you think ‘this isn’t very copper’ – this would be it. I’m not one for girly, skirts or revealing crops but this outfit is a little special to me. This outfit is the kind of thing that would be worn if I had a party or night out coming up. The skirt is my absolute love right now because it is so slimming and flattering, the colour works perfectly for this season and adds a touch of style to any outfit. The bralet? I’ve been wearing it as underwear as well as a top because its so lovely. The zip up back helps to make it fit…

Motel Rocks Chino Shorts.

striped leotard // new look chino shorts // motel vintage+ chunky heels // truffle Say hello to the biggest lover of stripes. They are a subtle way to add more to a plain outfit, without actually adding patterns. The chino shorts were my chosen item from the Motel Vintage event and they are gorgeous. Despite being slightly too big for me round the legs, they could easily be altered to work better.

Khaki Vest and Wrangler Boots.

sunglasses // primark (old) earrings // topshop  necklace // primark khaki sleeveless vest // new look shorts // celeb look wrangler boots // vintage lipstick // saint germain, mac   This is probably one of my favourite looks in the heat. The khaki sleeveless vest is perfect for warmer weather because its quite breezy but can be styled warmer if its not too hot out. I dress more tomboy than feminine which is beginning to reflect through my outfit choices – although I wish I looked as chic as some of the girls on tumblr/pinterest. My Wrangler boots were part of a depop splurge in which I swapped for. They are so comfortable and I quite like that they are worn a little because it makes them look more ‘worker boot’ than stiff.

Watermelon Co-Ord Set for Festivals.

shirt dress // dorothy perkins + watermelon bralet + watermelon mesh shorts + cycle shorts // asos chunky heels // truffle   Slightly out of comfort zone outfit, I’ll admit. It isn’t often that you’ll get me to wear a bralet like this comfortably without something mesh or sheer over the top but I love it. Best Clothing have some gorgeous sets for this season but the watermelon was one that I couldn’t resist – its perfect! I love the contrasting mesh and watermelon panels of the shorts – they’d be perfect over high waisted knickers or even just a bikini.

CELEB LOOK | LOOKBOOK.

co-ord set & eyelash lace bralet // celeb look+ Celeb Look kindly sent me a couple of gorgeous items to feature and review on my blog so what better way to show them off than in a lookbook? I am going to find time to film this so its easier to see the outfits, but filming a lookbook alone with a tripod is quite hard – so for now here is my alternative. The brand is full of low cost fashion which comes in all sizes including a wide range of plus sized items – which is perfect if you’re a more curvy girl. The models are all gorgeous and realistic sizes which makes the choices easier because they aren’t all over 6ft tall with skyscraper legs. If you just click onto their facebook then you’ll see what I mean. The first item that I chose was the co-ord set, which was my…
