| Current Fashion Favourites - Trends, Colour & Print | 22/08/17 |

MORNING ALL! Today I have for you all yet another 'generic' style blog post that is most commonly associated with those of the YouTube users. But today, I bring to you, a blogging version of my Current Fashion Favourites. Buckle up lads, and enjoy...


1. Espadrilles
In terms of summer attire, I am not overly fond of sandals, and whilst I've been a sucker for sliders this season, I usually depend solely on closed toe shoes in the summer time. Espadrilles, for me, are perfect. They don't allow your feet to get too hot on a mid-summers day, and they look particularly gorgeous on the foot paired with a tea style dress or denim shorts; without the fuss of painting your toenails or being conscious about having your feet out, lol. Personally, these are my go-to shoes (if rain isn't predicted) and I have been wearing them absolutely endlessly this summer. They are so fundamental to my ideal summer wardrobe and I am obsessed. 


2. Floral Prints
Usually, I wouldn't be one for a floral print, because they represent quite girly attributes and I am far from girly. But to my surprise, this season I have gone in head first for this trend. I love ditsy floral prints at the moment, and dainty floral prints are just divine. I currently love a floral shirt/blouse, particularly as they can be carried through into Autumn and paired with a light wash denim jean and ankle boots - transitional! On a long term basis, I'm not sure how much floral I'll be wearing, and I feel as though this skirt may be a one-season love affair, to be seen later on eBay lol. I will try and incorporate this skirt into new looks and with new AW17 trends, but we shall see.

3. Hoop Earrings
For quite a while now, I have loved hooped earrings, and I find myself wearing small hoops on a daily basis, as I feel as though they can be quite expressive to an outfit, and can alter the vibes of an outfit entirely. Hooped earrings are so cool and chic, so they have the ability to transform a moderately basic outfit into something quirkier. They look great with everything, and I always reach for silver as all of my jewellery is silver so it coincides nicely. If you have any suggestions of brands that sell cool hooped earrings then please send them my way because I'd love to discover more designs!


4. Basic Crop Tops
Basic. That says it all really doesn't it. Anything basic is generally relatively versatile regardless of season or trends, and over the summer I have, much to my surprise, developed a liking towards basic crop tops. They can be used for layering, for adding a simple pop of colour into an outfit (like here in this post), they can be really practical in the sense they go with anything really, especially garments that are high waisted, so they're easy to throw on and be comfortable in. I am actually loving crop tops at the moment, unless I'm having a fat ugly day ;)! I just need that toned tum to go with them lol. 

5. Layering jewellery
I am a huge lover of jewellery, and have loved it since I was a child. My most desired kind of jewellery is without a doubt rings, and I have many that I wear on a daily basis and hate to have to take off from time to time. However, more recently I have been experimenting with necklaces, and how layering necklaces can really add something to a look. I have two currently, and am on the hunt for one of those 'Instagram famous' ones, you know the ones I mean, with all the little dangly bits hanging off the chain ;). But yes, so far so good, I am finding it so much fun to be creative with my accessories, as I am quite literally running out of fingers to pile rings upon!


I hope you enjoyed this blog post, I'll be coming at ya again with a slightly deeper, more punctuated post next time.
Peace out x

| Festival / Holiday Look No.1 | 20/06/17 |

HELLO HELLO! So this is going to be a little 'saga' of looks I've selected that I think would be super appropriate for your summer holidays, or equally just as good as a festival outfit. I am aiming to make them as realistic as possible, in the sense that each outfit is something that I would actually wear on holiday, and also so that each look is relatively affordable and could incorporate items you already have hidden in your wardrobe, alongside more trend-based pieces. Hopefully, this will be a success and may inspire you while planning your own holiday outfits. I don't know about you guys, but I find it ever so tedious trying to plan holiday outfits, so I feel like this would help me! Lastly, I am going away soon myself, so I am hoping to use these blog posts to document outfit ideas that I will be able to wear myself! ENJOY. - OUTFIT - Top:  Pretty Little Thing Skirt:  ASOS Sunglasses:  Spitfire Earrings:  ASOS Espadrilles:  ASOS...

Milk it vintage

             Dress: Milk It Vintage Leather Jacket: Heeli Ripped jeans: Topshop Trainer pumps: Asos Rucksack: Fjallraven Kanken  Hey! A slow, slightly slurred good morning from me to you, but eh that's what Sunday's are for right... So today I wanted to share with you a blog post containing some simple, casual items, that actually I wear pretty often. So firstly, the dress from Milk It Vintage is something I only purchased about a month ago from Asos and I would highly recommend you take a look at their range of items on the Asos site. So it's a Tshirt style dress with large rips in one shoulder, side and chest (but not too big at the chest, rest assured). I have worn it as a top rather than a dress in this styling, however I have found that it works perfectly both ways. It is incredibly comfortable, soft, and not fitted at all. The only defect it has is that the label on the inside of the neckline is ridiculously itchy !!!!!  So anyway, I st...

Seven years of the valid excuse 'but I'm just a teenager' and the comfort of not yet reaching adulthood and responsibilities was calming. However, today I teenage no more, so I thought it would be interesting to reflect and to give an insight into 20 things I have learned in 20 years. HOW HAVE I BEEN ON THIS PLANET FOR TWENTY YEARS?!?!  Please, grab a cuppa and enjoy.  1. Turning 20 years old is scary, lol. 2. University is an experience I would 100% recommend to anyone, even though it can be stressful. 3.  Sleep and your diet completely alters how you feel: not enough sleep and you become grouchy; a poor diet and you lose all motivation to do an...
