The layout of the inspiration behind the collection was jaw dropping, literally, with the simplicity of the effortless and minimalistic presentation of the exhibition, leaving me in a trance like state, wanting it to continue on as I came to the exit.
What are your thoughts on the exhibition?

My current state consists of pajamas, hot chocolate and my credit card. Yes, that's right, its pay day and it's also raining outside. Despite the typical British weather we are having, right now I'm online shopping through the sales and new stock for some summer dresses to brighten up my wardrobe.
Considering, I'm probably one of the most indecisive people ever, I can never make up my mind and end up putting half the stores in my basket, only to realize the price is stacking up! (definitely hate looking at my bank balance after). I then thought that I could blog about my favourite dresses I've seen so far and see what you think, so here we are.

So recently I've been looking for some new going out outfits that are a little more summery; seeing as my wardrobe is pretty black and white. Obviously the first place I thought of was MissGuided. I am absolutely obsessed with their collections, you can find anything and everything, and for a reasonable price too! And I needn't look any further as I found the perfect dress for me.
I first spotted this mint lazer cut out scalloped mini dress, and fell in love! The price didn't hurt either, I bet you can't guess it... okay I'll tell you, £20! (P.s. You can still purchase them here ). Then I noticed it in this dusky blue colour and couldn't not get it. My indecisive nature left me with no choice but to purchase both colours, it also comes in several other colours too, but these stood out the most to me for summer.

Although they have a simple design, they sure do make a statement, standing out in any crowd! Another thing I loved about these dresses is how they can be styled in a million and one ways, dressing down with sandals and a bikini, or swapping that for heels and a clutch ready to go out. Its the perfect day to night dress, especially for summer!
What do you think?

To go strawberry picking I kept it pretty simple in monochrome, opting for a black pair of RiverIsland high waisted shorts and a striped crop top from Topshop. I'm usually very skeptical about wearing stripes, but I decided to brave it and now this top has become a favourite of mine. 
Its such a perfect activity to do in summer, even if it was sun and cloud and even greater to bake with after. In fact it's also very cheap at £4 per 1kg of strawberries!

Yet another month has passed by and it's time for a favourites blog to appear. This is a bit of a mix of fashion, beauty and stuff, and all pretty related to the sunny weather we've been experiencing (hallelujah!)
1. Rimmel London Highlighter
This is one of my go-to products, even if I'm not wearing a lot of make up that day, I will still reach for my highlighter. I decided to try this brand as I have previously read so many positive reviews for it. After trying it, I can't fault it! This 25ml bottle priced at £4.99 (bargain I know!!) also comes in three different shades, I think I'm in love.
2. White Nail Polish
After reaching into my pot of the unkown that is my nail polish box, searching for a summery colour to paint my nails, I found some white nail polish, and thought why not! I have become obsessed! White is my new black (well for the summer at least). I think what I like best is how it is naturally bright and makes me look super tanned.
3. Pretty Little Liars
This isn't a new favourite of mine, I have been watching this show since the pilot of the first series aired and have been constantly hooked; but since its been back with yet another ground breaking series with some answers being revealed, but for every one answer given, ten more questions need to be answered, it had to go on my favourites list!
3. RiverIsland Sunglasses
I think this is an obvious one, more of a necessity due to the sunny weather we've been having. But what I like most about these sunglasses is their slightly cat eye shape, and the contrasting sides.
4. New Look Heeled Sandals
The main reason for these shoes being in my favourites, besides their colour, is their comfort! These shoes as super comfy to wear, which makes them perfect for one of those day to night outfits.
5. MaxFactor Waterproof Mascara
Everytime summer comes around, this becomes my summer mascara. It is by far the best waterproof mascara I have used! It does not come off in water! I would say, however, is that it is a little harder to take off in the evening, but it is definitely worth it.
6. New Look Watch >>Similar Here
This is a very recent purchase, for work actually. I'm not usually a watch person, but I've kind of fallen in love with it. I love the big clock, the rose gold floral design in it, and the thin white strap. It's an all in one.
I could go on forever about everything and anything I loved throughout June, and narrowing it down to six was hard but we got there!
What are you June favourites?

Okay, so you know that feeling when you know that pay day is coming, and you are counting down the days and hours until you can buy everything and anything (within reason obviously...) from that very long list of things you most definitely need to buy. Well this is the top five of mine...
1. A TRIANGL Bikini
This classic Triangl bikini is definitely a favourite of mine, and its mainly because of the colour. This bright pastel blue/turquoise colour is perfect for the summer weather and seems to compliment my skin tone nicely, as well as automatically making me look tanned (BONUS!)
2. PublicDesire shoes
Obviously I love every shoe that is of PublicDesire origin, but these in particular caught my attention. I'm all about a classic heeled stiletto, they are perfect for everything! But this Leona heeled sandal design has cut out back detail, its white and a gold effect toe! Talk about an all in one, did I also mention its only £24.99! How could you not love them.
3. St. Tropez Gradual Tan In Shower
Everything about this product just screams purchase me! The huge surge of positive reviews have made this an essential product to try.The easy streak free application in the shower and moisturizing qualities make it sound soo desirable. Plus, everyone loves an easy tan, giving you a healthy sun kissed glow.
4.Miss Selfridge Striped Shirt Dress
A shirt dress has way more many uses than you may first think, it sounds so casual I know. But many now with the new styles and materials means they are so versatile. You can dress them up in heels and a clutch, or dress down in sandals and a bikini. This particular shirt dress stood out to me because of the striped pattern, stripes are so big this summer and well.. every summer, so you can't go wrong!
5. RiverIsland Mini Tote Bag
Now I actually have a similar black one to this, but thought a new summer handbag was needed. At the moment, you may be able to tell that white and gold is my favourite combination for the summer, and this bag would definitely be a perfect addition to the wardrobe collection. The plain colour pallette means that it will match with basically everything.

The thing I love most about Winter has to be the warm clothes! I
love the over-sized coats, the winter boots and all things knitted. My main
reason for this, is the cold, sunny days with frost as its looks just like a
scene from a movie.
So for today's outfit
I decided to make my main feature a pair of printed leggings, keeping the
overall colour scheme, surprise surprise, wintery in monochrome. Tis the season
where it is actually acceptable to be wearing A LOT of black, which my wardrobe
is made out of.
 |
| Hat - Asos Coat - Dorothy Perkins Crop top - H&M Leggings - Dorothy Perkins Shoes - RiverIsland Mini Tote - RiverIsland |
I paired the leggings
with a black crop top and black over-sized coat to complete the look. I love
over-sized coats purely for their effortless, yet chic look they can produce.
To finish it all off,
I wore my new obsession!! My Riverisland heeled boots with a metal trim and
mini tote bag to match. My love for these shoes is ridiculous! I think the
two-toned material, suede and plastic, give an amazing textured look, making
them very suitable for both day and night.
Not forgetting another
statement piece of the outfit, a Winter floppy hat! I'm not one to go for
something so different; it’s fair to say this is out of my comfort zone.
However, I love the chic look it can create, and the fact you can put little
effort into your hair!
What’s your favourite Winter must
haves?

Seeing as it is the British Fashion Awards, I thought it was only right to blog about the outfits of the celebrities I loved and well not so much. The British Fashion Awards centred at the London Coliseum on Monday, December 1st, are held to celebrate the best of the British Fashion Industry.
I have to say my favourite garments of the
evening by far, were styled by Kendall Jenner and Cara Delevingne. I know, it’s
typical how they are models and how much love I have for them, but what they
were both wearing was incredible!
Kendall Jenner was wearing an Emilio Pucci jumpsuit in white with a black
stripe down one side.
Whilst Cara Delevingne was styled in a
head to toe Burberry number. A glamorous glittering dress with a leg slit,
perfect for the event.
I don't think I could possibly choose who
wore it better, as they both define what the night is all about!
Additionally, you can’t forget about Emma Watson and Anna Kendrick rocking it on the red carpet.
On one hand, you have Emma Stone styling
an over-sized blazer with a cream dress, which somehow still looks amazing even
though the silhouette is quite boyish.
On the other hand, Anna Kendrick who went
for something a lot more girly, a contrasting pink bandeau dress to the red
carpet, looking completely effortless.
However, in my
opinion not everyone was dressed to my taste for the event.
You may disagree
with me here, but I have to say, Rita Ora opted for a more grunge look in an
all black outfit, with a leather bandeau, waistband and black sheer fabric. Not
to mention the visible stocking, looking a little inappropriate for the event
at hand. Even though this is representing the best of the industry, a more
glamorous approached previously showcased by the singer would be a lot more
suitable.
I am kind of suck
with Suki Waterhouse dressed in Burberry. I love the gathered layers, the
shades of blue and the sheerness of the piece as it is so on trend now and for
the seasons ahead. However, I feel that it is not entirely to my taste, I think
it is due to the block collar and the 1950's style.
What were your favourite pieces from the evening celebrating everything fashion?
