Embroidered dress - Topshop
Boots - Topshop
Hat - Topshop (currently similar in PRIMARK)

This dress is adorable!!!!! I love the embroidered detail so much, such a sweet perfect detail. Walking around the shop I grabbing a few things, not realising this was a petite dress. After trying it on it was perfect! I was worried the chest area would be to loose but it was a great fit! The little ladies were snug as a bug in a rug. No need for me to be conscious of showing off my bra, boob or nipple!

After taking it off I realised it was a petite but I didn't care because it fit perfectly. I was told that petite is only different in length, being shorter, however I didn't see a difference with this dress, it cover me up fine and my bum sticks out but that was still fine. I put it on save and went to get it on uniform the next morning only to be told its been moved but I didn't have time to fetch it!! So frustrated. I quickly tried a normal size 8 on (not petite) but I found the bust to be quite loose! So I got a fellow colleague to radio about for the saves rail and luckily it was still there.

Anyway... Its one of my favourite pieces right now and its perfect for a festival look! Although I'm sure it won't last long in the filth of a festival now ay' I think it was £38.

I have had these real leather boots for a while now and I feel like the leather looks over worn, in a bad way... I really want the Topshop brown pointed toe boots, they are perfect but I certainly cannot afford everything and its not boots season now, so I just couldn't convince myself even if I did have money. For now the black boots add to a festival look. Can you see yourself rocking this dress with some black DR. Martins? OH YESSSSS

70s Polkadots

 

Skirt - Urban Outfitters sale

Shoes - Primark (recent)

Feeling like I am stuck for wardrobe inspiration again when I open the doors. There is barely anything in there that I actually like but I can't get rid of it because I don't have anything to replace it with... I am slowly sorting out taking the pics of items and putting them on DEPOP or Ebay but after spending 3hours and only shooting tops, skirts and a small pile of playsuits, I no longer have time for the rest! (knitwear, coats, jackets, shorts, trousers, crop tops) there is just so much and I still have to find time to upload them. BAH

Any-who, I still love this skirt and I have had so many compliments. I am currently swooning over the Topshop brown suede button front skirt but its a ridiculous £75. WHAT TEENAGER/YOUNG ADULT CAN AFFORD THAT, WHATTTTT.  Now thats shit is cray'
I teamed this skirt up with some polka dots this time, quite a cute monochrome outfit. Still doesn't 100% feel like me though, I mean I am so confused about who 'me' is. All I know is that my dress sense definitely has a split personality, what it is however, I have no idea!! Well this is turning into quite a confession-like blog post haha.

These shoes are sooooooo cute! they are made of faux leather and certainly do hurt your feet. The first day I wore them I had to wear two medium plasters and one big one on top haha but I knew what to expect when I bought these from primark for a sweet £14. You can just tell by the hard back that the shoes isn't going to be fun breaking in, but I honestly don't care, they are so cute! No pain no gain :P

70s corduroy

 

Shirt - Topshop

Corduroy A-line skirt - Urban Outfitters

Shoes - Topshop

Hat - Topshop

I was inspired by Dearestdeer the fashionblogger to get my hands on this cute little 70s style corduroy front button skirt! She posted a picture on her instagram wearing this skirt and the 70s pussy bow shirt you may have seen in the topshop picture adverts. I am defiantly getting my hands on the pussy bow shirt next! It was such an adorable look!

This skirt has gone into sale when I searched for it and it was all out of stock! Absolutely gutted. I began to search ebay and depop a few weeks later only to realise I should just do my typical trick, keep the page open on my phone and check it everyday. And what happened? Ta da! A size small came back in stock! (I thought I was going to need a medium as I thought Urban Outfitters clothes come up smaller but after talking to someone selling a M on depop I found out that she is the same size as me and M was to big) Of course I snapped up the skirt right away! This trick has never failed me. Even today I managed to get my hands on something I had been watching for 4 weeks! Magic aye! haha

I wasn't really sure how to style this skirt as I had my mind set on the pussy bow shirt. I did a little research into the 70s trend and decided to go with a plain white shirt. At first I felt I looked to plain, so I added a black bow hair clip to the top of the shirt, mimicking a bow tie but I didn't like that either. Then I tried changing the size of my hat to something bigger and floppy. At first I didn't like that either and switched back but when I looked at the pictures on my laptop I preferred the hat as it presented it self as a statement.

To finish the outfit I wore my pointed toe Topshop boots. These boots are so simple but so chic and very expensive! I would never spend as much on such a shoe but luckily for my I had 1 Topshop uniform piece left and bagged them for half price, they are real leather too which I rarely buy into because of the price, so I am extremely pleased I could treat myself to such an elegant pair of sweethearts.

Forest Lace

 

 

 

Top - Topshop Petite

Culottes - Dorothy Perkins

Shoes - Pink Soda - Bank Fashion

Necklace - Urban Outfitters

Hat - Primark

Today I have been shooting blog posts and doing videos from 9am-3pm non stop. My brain is fried haha, so lets see if I can write this baby up!

Really love this little lace number! It also comes in black so I bagged that too! I bought a size 6 in both because I really wanted the lace to high enough that is fairly into a crop top rather then a top so that the lace sits in a position that makes it a statement. I'm not usually the one for green, mint is probably as close as I would go, a pastel kind of mint of course! But I absolutely adored this forest green and lace combo.

OH yeah, so I don't have pink hair anymore :( Had to do my roots again so everything got washed out! and now my roots are bright orange, hahahaha, hence why I live in fedora's these days. I'm thinking of going lilac but as I haven't done it before and the pink won't completely wash out, I'm worried it will go tits up and hit London Fashion Weekend with horrid hair. But you only live once is what I try to go by as I am a safe player and its really frustrating at times!

Back to the outfit.. I was going to pair this top up with a cream pleated skirt, however the outfit created a strong summer vibe so I had to pass. I wanted to present something more tomboy(ish) and covering!

I got this cute little shoes for £10 in the Bank Fashion closing down sale, so sad! they were a good brand! I just think there is so much competition these days its hard for every retailer to fed the monies! They are really comfy and I cannot wait to wear them in the summer. I really love the strappy ankle and then a small gap with a big block of croc print, what I mean is usually strappy ankle shoes show off a lot of ones foot, which I hate, so this provides good coverage.

Lastly, the necklace. What a bargain! I bought 4 necklaces from Urban Outfitters for £15 when they were meant to cost me £40-50 all together, bargain!! Absolutely love crystals so it was a must have and I have more to come!
