June Must Haves

May is over, and I'm hoping (fingers crossed) that with the arrival of June, summer might finally be on it's way. This has lead to me dreaming endlessly of sunny days with the BBQ lit and a mojito in hand, so I had to show you guys my wishlist of June must haves, full of versatile summer pieces that I've fallen in love with, and am dying to have in my wardrobe- sob for saving :( !


1) Duster Coat // River Island     2) Button Cami // Topshop     3) Tote Bag // La Moda     4) Slider Sandals // Topshop     5) High Waist Jeans // Asos
1) This AMAZING Floral Duster coat is from River Island, and it's just far too gorgeous for words. RI have some absolutely  lovely summer pieces, and they are all so unique and individual, I just can't get enough of them at the moment. The statement print and pastel colours of this coat are dreamy, and I think it's also a great transitional piece, meaning you can cover up and stay cosy on days when the sun might not be shining so much. It's killing me though, as its £55, which is way out of my price range, and does make me want to cry a bit a lot. Oh well, I can always wear it in my dreams!

2) Cute little camis are always a summer essential, and this Topshop one is no different. It's a cute colour. and the button-up detailing adds a lovely little girly touch. I also love the kind-of 'knitted look' material, which is great if you're after boho vibes and a festival feel. At £12, you could probably get a cheaper version in Primark, but this one is just too cute to say no!

3)  La Moda are a brand I've seen loads of from fellow bloggers and Instagrammers (if that's even a word?). I've seen so many stylish ladies rocking their shoes and bags that I just had to give their website a quick check, and I fell in love with almost everything I saw!  This tan tote bag is one of my absolute faves, as it's a great size to fit all of my bits and bobs in, and the zip detailing makes it super chic, a definite bag must-have!

4) Oh my. I never thought I'd see the day when I pair of Birk-a-likes were gracing my blog, but I have to say that the 'ugly shoe' trend has completely won me over! I always love it when fashion and comfort come together, and it doesn't get any more comfy than these double-strap flat tan Topshop beauties. I will most definitely be purchasing a pair of these ready for my summer holiday in August. 

5) Jeans, Jeans and more Jeans. I can't get enough of them, they go with everything, and there's a fit to flatter every shape and size. I'm forever on the hunt for more jeans to wear in different colours and styles, but I'm loving the subtle knee rips in these high-waisted Asos jeans. They are bang on trend, and perfect for summer, nothing else needs to be said, except from, get in my wardrobe! 

What do you think to my wishlist? Are there any items you're coveting for summer...?x

Part 3 // 3 Ways to Wear: Boxy Crop Tee

Here's the last instalment in my '3 ways to wear' blog post series.. In this outfit the Primark tee does all the talking as I've chosen not to layer over it with anything else. So here it is!

Look 3: Dressed Down Day Out
I'm a HUGE fan of the whole 'Parisian chic' trend, and I think mixing a staple white piece like this t-shirt with some red accessories always adds a bit of French style to what would otherwise be a plain outfit, and that's exactly the look I went for!




I kept things so simple and easy with this outfit, I literally just chucked on my favourite pair of blue jegging jeans from Matalan (a similar pair is available to buy here). These jeans aren't actually supposed to be high-waisted like they might look in the pictures, however I've lost quite a bit of weight since I bought them so they don't stay on unless I pull them up really high- sad I know, but they're so comfy I just can't stop wearing them!

I added my Red Topshop chain necklace on too, it's so cute, and looks perfect when you match it with some bright red lippy! I've been messing around with my hair much more recently, and to try and reduce the lions mane that is my barnet I've taken to wearing this 'topknot' style much more recently, and I think it works perfectly with the slightly casual vibes of this outfit.

I'm already planning to rock this look to go shopping, when I'm out for drinks or even just popping out for a coffee (or hot chocolate in my case!). It's my style down to a tee, (see what I did there..) and I'm so glad I saved it till last.!

I really hope you've enjoyed this 'Ways to Wear series', please let me know what you thought of it, and your opinions on my last look...x

SUNDAY SHOE LUST!

Hi! A lot's happened in the last few weeks and I've just been really busy, so it's been really nice to finally have a chilled out weekend which consisted of catching up on some much needed sleep, and having a good online browse ready for pay day on Tuesday, so here's my Sunday shoe lust!
I've noticed loads of bloggers sporting these super cool skater trainers recently, with the Topshop vamp croc-print ones being a popular choice! While I wasn't sure whether they were quite my style, these absolutely gorgeous gingham check ones caught my eye straight away. Topshop is so good for classic cool, and these trainers would be so perfect for casual wear, I can literally see myself wearing them all the time!

Check Skater Shoes // Topshop

I love both colour styles, and the multi is so unique and summery, but I can see myself wearing the dark blue ones more often maybe. I have heard that they aren't that comfy at first, but they just look so comfy to me! They would be ideal to wear to work, where I could just add my trusty leather jacket and jeans, or for wearing out with a smart shirt and trousers, and a statement necklace to jazz the look up. With summer coming, a pair of shoes like these is what my wardrobe needs, so they are definitely top of my 'to purchase list', and at £20, there's no reason not to!

My 'if money was no object' Wishlist!

Hi! I'm super excited as this is my first ever post on my blog! I've been wanting to get blogging for absolutely ages, so it feels so good to finally be able to start writing. As it's my first post, I thought I'd start with a small introduction to my style and the clothes I love, and what better way to do that than with a 'If Money was no Object' post (I can always dream...).

These are a couple of items I've majorly fallen in love with, but will probably never be able to afford (or justify paying for). They make up an outfit that I'd wear for any occasion I could, as I love any excuse to dress up, but I really think they'd be perfect for a posh meal or big night out.

1. Satin Dress // Topshop     2. Necklace // Kate Spade     3. Perspex Clutch // Lulu Guinness     4. Court Shoes // Kurt Geiger

1) I cannot believe how much I love this dress! I'm a little bit obsessed with high neck dresses, tops and jumpers at the moment, so when I saw this on my monthly trawl of the Topshop website I fell in love straight away. The satin material is something I have never really worn, but I'd love to try out. At £90 it's not the most expensive item on my wishlist, so it might be something I consider investing in (after a few months of saving).

2) I'm a sucker for a statement necklace, and this chic beauty from Kate Spade caught my eye straight away. I love the classic colour and sparkle! It's perfect for glamming up a dress or adding a touch of glitter to an everyday jumper!

3) If there's one brand I've been obsessed with for the past few months, it has to be Lulu Guinness. Endless visits to the website where I spent a little bit too long looking at the bags and clutches have given me a bit of motivation to save, although I'm not sure how long it will take me to save up a spare £245 for this gorgeous dusky pink iconic Lip clutch. 

4)These super pretty Kurt Geiger court shoes are something I've been lusting after for ages. I don't own any designer shoes, I mostly just window shop, but these are definitely a pair that caught my eye straight away because of the gorgeous colour (as you can tell my favourite colour of the moment is definitely pale pink!) which I could literally wear with anything!


So that's my current 'If money was no object' wishlist, I hope you've enjoyed reading! I'd love it if you left me a comment below letting me know what you think :) What are your favourite expensive items...? What's the first thing you'd buy if money was no object..?x
