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!

I never quite realized just how much body jewellery there was out there, from waist and thigh chains to anklets and arm cuffs, and how good it all looks. A simple chain added to an outfit can create such a statement that reinvents you whole look. Add the sun in the mix and you have your summer statements. These are my favourite body jewellery pieces I need in my life and so do you.

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.

Seeing as I have recently returned to sixth form for my final year
before venturing into the big wide world. I thought I would do a little 'back
to school' post.
At the moment I have had quite an obsession over the houndstooth
print, which has recently grown on me very quickly. So it was agenising when it
came to finding the perfect houndtooth skirt for the upcoming seasons! Have you
had this much trouble? I scoured the
shops in hope of finding that one perfect skirt that matches the vivid image
created in your mind of how it will look on the hanger and on you. Luckily, I
came across this New Look skirt and fell in love! I will say it again, I love
this skirt! The shape and fit is perfect, as well as the notches to make it
very accessible to move in. The houndstooth print, along with the mini skirt
are trends set to take autumn and winter by storm! I think this purchase is
very on trend and should definitely get a lot of wear! It is also going to help
with the transition from summer to autumn.
So for today’s look I paired the houndstooth mini skirt with a plain
black crop top. This is because the main focus of the outfit is aimed at the printed
skirt. So by keeping everything else quite minimal, all the focus is directed
towards your statement piece.
However, I accessorized this look by adding a silver chain necklace
and several rings/midi rings. I further added a little colour in my nail polish
and opted for darker lips to suit the autumn weather.

Overall, I feel this outfit has a certain ‘back to school’ vibe.
Probably because in a sense it has quite a smart casual look going on. With the
mini skirt and top, a blazer would certainly add to that vibe and create a
perfect first day outfit.
I hope you have a lovely day and thank you for reading!

I can't quite believe I have never done an
OOTD post before, and thought it was about time I did before I can no longer
wear my favourite summer clothes. Seeing as it is my first post, I had to incorporate
one of my favourite trends, monochrome! Although, I have to say at the moment due
to typical British weather we are experiencing, I never know how to dress. One
minute its bitter cold and windy, yet the next it’s warm and sunny.

So for today’s outfit I decided to wear very comfy, yet on trend Aztec
print joggers. I never thought I would be a fan of these style trousers, but I
guess you can grow to love. These trousers manage to hang well, without looking
'baggy' making them a must item in your summer wardrobe.
I paired these trousers with a crop top,
which in my opinion creates the best look. This makes it a perfect summer
outfit. However, to join the autumnal weather we have been experiencing, it
could be paired with a long sleeved top or even a jumper.
To finish this look, I added a lace
cardigan to contrast patterns and add to the monochrome vibe. Obviously, my
pops of colour are found in my nail polish and lipstick, creating the perfect
look whilst moving through the transition of summer to autumn.
Hopefully you enjoyed this post, I certainly did and will be uploading similar posts soon.

Considering summer is officially over and Autumn/Winter is set to
take its place, bringing in the cold temperatures and terrible weather, I
decided to try and wear a few summer pieces whilst I still could. Miraculously,
the weather decided to be kind and very warm. So when it was time to decide
what to wear for the day, I was drawn straight to my Vibrant blue Aztec print dress
from New Look.
I absolutely adore this dress for a number of reasons. Firstly, it’s very on trend and fashionable, considering it is a year old (they still stock it in stores), which brings me to my next point. The material is Cotton and Elastane, which makes the dress very durable and long lasting. It still looks brand new!
So for today’s looked, I paired it with a pair of New Look sandal
and black sunglasses. I further accessorized through my clashing nail polish
and lipstick colours, separating the look. This dress needs little accessories
due to the vibrant pattern, which I just love, along with how the colour stands
out!
Although you may think this dress cannot
recreate many 'different looks,' you would be wrong. It’s actually very
versatile and can be worn for several different occasions from day to night. It
can be used as a throw over on a day to the beach, or be styled with a pair of
gladiators/sandals for day. Or, if you were heading out in the evening, a pair
of black heels and clashing clutch bag will do the trick. Even in the winter,
it could be style with an oversized jumper.
Overall, I feel this dress
still has a lot of life left and I hope to continue wearing it throughout the
year, especially as vibrant blue is one of the many must colours for the
upcoming seasons.
I hope you are enjoying this weather too!
