Denim Dungarees

Thursday, 1 October 2015



Dungarees - Topshop Sale
Ribbed Roll Neck - Primark
Converse Dupes - Primark

When you've only got £50 for clothes, hair and beauty every month you start to get down and dirty with research on things you want in regards to pricing. Two staple pieces for my wardrobe are a pair of denim dungarees and black dungarees. I have been researching for months for some nice dungarees no more then £15. Very tricky to find I tell you that. At first I didn't want to get anything baggy but that opinion was swayed with these dungarees. After doing Topshop stock take I scanned through these, had a check on the price, £25 in sale and found out shortly after work that there was an additional 20% off sale so of course I jumped at the chance!! I wasn't sure at first, I thought I would most likely to return them but after doing this blog shoot I love them! I think what has swayed me is that there not plain, there acid wash and they are slightly high waisted! Thats the issues I find with dungarees, they emphasise the biggest part of me, my hips and its not flattering.

Paired the dungarees with a another wardrobe staple for AW, this primark ribbed roll neck. Is super soft and not see through, well I don't see anything but the image above seems too? I dunno. Its was only £5 and I think its great!

The converse dupes were a steal! £6 but they come up really short as if someone has cut a small part of the toe cap off. I bought a size 5 and I know a size 6 would just slip off. At the time I wasn't bothered but then I found out NEWLOOK do the same dupes for £12 and I bet they would be comfy! So now I'm gutted but never mind, £6 not a loss.

Thanks for reading :)

Double Denim for Summer Vibes

Thursday, 16 April 2015


Bralet - Primark (recent)
Shirt - Topshop
Shorts - Levis
Necklace - Newlook
Shoes - Converse

Tying a shirt around my tummy has also been a go to styling thing for me. Sometimes it works, sometimes I look like a hooker haha. This time it worked fabulous and I have fallen in love with another Double Denim look, this time the kind of summer edition. I had a few compliments at work on this outfit too but I was wearing a black velvet Topshop bralet instead at that point.

I think I mentioned before that I would never ever go for this dark type of denim however with blonde hair its working a treat for me! This shirt is really soft, comfy and lightweight. It doesn't feel like a denim shirt but is more likely made to look like one.

My trusty levis shorts, I have always adored these. They are my go to shorts in the summer but unfortunately as I have lost so much weight since UNI they are very baggy! but they still look really nice. Definitely on the look this year for a new pair though.

The crochet bralet, CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS WAS ONLY £5! Its such a staple piece for this summer and such an amazing bargain! Missguided have released their bralet too and its so gorgeous! I want both :'( but I doubt I'll have money for Missguided before it sells out! The only thing I am worried about this bralet is the strap, its avery thin piece of string (the halter neck tie) holding onto the bralet piece and I could see it pulling and snapping with wear so I'll be keeping my eyes on it!

The aztec necklace is just not being give justice in these pics. I love this necklace simply because of the aztec print giving off those festival summer vibes and then a sweet little misty bullet on the end.

Casual Lace

Thursday, 22 January 2015







Shirt - Love Clothing
Ripped Jeans - Topshop
Shoes - Converse

Isn't this shirt just the absolute bomb!? Its so beautiful made and cut! This shirt provides the perfect simplicity with the splash of statement (over the rest of the outfit) detail. Really love the finely cut, medium sized collar too adding to the simplicity of it all in a different way, in comparison to any old white shirt. I bought this beauty for (I think) £22! temporarily reduced from £26 :) AND NOW ITS ONLY £13!!! fabulous price! The material feels really nice too, it feel like a thick cotton in comparison to the kind of linen/cotton feel of other shirts, does that make sense?

Keeping within the casual simplicity I paired the shirt with some ripped black joni jeans but personally I think I would prefer non ripped jeans, just so that the focus on statement detail is entirely on the lace of the shirt. Keeping the footwear casual with some Converse too which bounce the white around too :)
