Taking all what's left of summer/ festival season


Floppy hat: Asos
Sunglasses: Asos
Scarf: Asos
Knitted dress: TU Sainsbury's
Bag: Marchino
Sandals: Asos

This could potentially be my last summery blog post for a while, unless there's a miracle and the sun comes out ASAP! Therefore, I felt it was necessary to post a festival style outfit. And yes, the facepaint is appalling but who cares eh?! 

Since this floppy hat from Asos is new to my wardrobe, I'm determined to feature it in many of my outfits and blog posts as possible. This hat is perfect for summer because it really does protect your face and eyes from the sun, however it is also a great wind barrier on these chillier summer days. I think it's definitely festival appropriate as most festivals are held outside, so, if you're going to any of the remaining festivals this summer, I would highly recommend packing a floppy hat! Asos also have a great range of floppy hats, not just this one!! 

As I've mentioned before, these sunglasses are perfect for a festival kind of outfit because they're so funky and sheek! They're bold, bright and I don't know, I just think they are fantastic for making a statement! And you always need a pair of sunnies for festivals because you do not want to be blinded by the sun - whether it's raining or not, the sun could make an appearance. 

The Asos scarf I am wearing is something I truly adore. It's half shiny purple and half shiny white, with a black gorilla print - how quirky! It adds a splash of fun and colour to an outfit - I have worn it as a headband before too which works really well. I purchased this last year so Asos may bring it back which I hope for all your sakes, but definitely keep your eyes peeled for any more scarves by Asos. 

This dress from Sainsbury's is perfect festival attire. It's loosely knitted so it's slightly cooler than a regular knit item. Also, it has fringing at the bottom which is particularly trendy at the moment. Overall, it just looks rocking and would be perfect to keep you slightly warmer than alternatives which is so helpful if you're in England! 

This small satchel style cross body bag is great! It's real leather so it's of a good quality and the two colour leather makes it a little edgy compared to other bags. It just about has enough space for your phone, purse and keys, so it's ideal if you are travelling around etc. Cross body bags are a must have for festivals I think. 

These sandals by Asos are absolutely fantastic. I have worn these so so much this summer, they're so comfortable, they look great with pretty much everything, although I think they aren't as effective if you're pairing them with full length trousers. They're also wipe clean, which is perfect for every day use - and if you get yourself stuck in the mud at a festival then you can bring some wipes and all will be sorted!!! 

Thanks for checking out the blog, see you tomorrow for an up-cycling special lol, hopefully I have made some wearable items !

| 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...
