Fashion Friday - first blog post ! Summer in style


First blog post! 

Dress: Asos
Shoes: Asos
Purse: Fiorelli
Sunglasses: Topshop

Since it's the summer holidays and everyone is hopping off all over the globe for their summer travels, it's so important to have with you stylish, comfortable and weather suitable clothes. 
This reclaimed vintage dress from Asos is perfect for both dressing up and down. The kimono sleeves mean you don't get yourself too hot and the lace detailing and cross back makes such a simple item SO enchanting. The off-the-shoulder effect definitely feels cool and chic, I think that part of the dress is especially cute!
The shoes are also a little twist on a classic pump. The leopard print detail on the front add a splash of colour to what could become a slightly boring outfit. I love them, they're so comfy and Asos also provide a zebra print or a classic plain black - versatile: CHECK! 
I purchased the purse on the Asos website and I love it because it's the perfect size for keeping hold of all your cards and receipts etc - although that's no reason to be lazy and not organise your purse!!! It feels like such a great quality product and Asos also have online a matching bag if you want to really spice things up safari style! The small animal print detail really brings alive this outfit, I feel! :) 
Lastly, the sunglasses! They're from Topshop and I adore them so much because they're not too bold nor plain - a great purchase (when I accidentally trod on the first pair I was in a huge rush to replace them, I won't lie!) they're also super super great if you've a teeny tiny head like mine - definitely check out Topshop for sunglasses if you find sunglasses falling off your head, they're a summer essential and I've worn them so so much! 
Overall, I think this is the perfect outfit for chilling in the evening on holiday, or if you're in England and it's not quite bikini weather, it's a good solution for feeling summery but not getting frostbite!

| 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...

| Unwinding | 05/09/17 |

Morning you lovely lot! Today on the blog, I have a post all about being able to relax at the end of the day, and how I most like to unwind. We have such busy lives and schedules, that it is so important to take some time at the end of the day to chill out and declutter your mind from the thoughts of the day. Here are the five ways in which I best unwind, and maybe you too could have a think about how you allow yourself to relax. 1. Cuppa tea The most obvious(ly British) way to unwind is to grab yourself a cup of tea. For me, drinking a cup of tea is one of the single most effective and easiest ways to help me unwind. The whole tea experience is something to enjoy, making the perfect brew in your preferred mug, grabbing a couple of biscuits or the whole packet if you fancy it and sitting down to watch Netflix. Before almost completely forgetting that you made the tea but then suddenly saving it when its gone slightly luke warm and the disappointment on your face is unruly...

1. Where do you study? I am studying my degree at the University of Northampton. Check them out  here. 2. What do you study? The course I am studying is BA Fashion Marketing. It is divided by business modules, and fashion modules, and is a three year course. 3. What year are you in? I am about to begin my second year, and am incredibly excited.

I live in a house in Northampton and share it with my housemate Lauren. 5. How old are you? I am 19 years old, turning 20 in November. 6. What are your three uni essentials?
