What I'm wearing: Dress c/o Sheinside Crop Top - H&M ♥ Skirt - Romwe  Hellbounds - UNIF

The sun has finally come out of hiding! The sun makes me yearn for short shorts, pretty white dress and colour! Lots and lots of colour.......just like my dress! Even though it is a dress, I prefer wearing it open and over other things, way more fun this way. I love how much vivid colour there is in this dress and in keeping with a running theme, it billows in the wind aha. You know how much I could ramble about how much I love things that billow and have done in the past but I will save you from that, for now (I had to fight the urge to insert evil laughter here....I'm still tempted). I'm off to munch some yummy gyoza, have a lovely weekend!

Accordian Pleated Skirt + Giveaway

                                          What I'm wearing: Skirt c/o Sugarlips  Crop top - Asos ♥ Hold ups - Primark  Shoes - UNIF ♥ Cuff - Ebay

I got sent this lovely skirt from Sugarlips this week. I know you've heard me talk about them before (and probably from countless other bloggers) but they are one of my absolute favourite online stores. I also bought a pair of chiffon pants from Sugarlips recently and they are the most prettiest pair of pants I've ever, ever owned and I will show you more of this soon. I could probably talk about them forever but I'm just going to tease you with the thought of them. 

Back to the skirt, I really love the shape and colour of it. Lately all I've been craving is muted tones, pleats and pretty shapes.....this skirt definitely fits the bill! It has the best shape, it isn't too long and it comes in at the waist. It also moves with the wind, I'm a total sucker for things that billow in the wind! Because simply anything that moves with the wind is the best thing ever!

I have another giveaway at the the end of this post :) BUT I really want to know......is this something you want to see on this blog? Or are you just not fussed? The only reason I ask is because I want to interact more with you, my reader, but also it would be nice to see what you would like to see more from my blog! Or you could even say what you don't like about my blog! With my posts I talk a lot about clothes and shoes and more clothes and I was wondering if you want me to talk more about other stuff! Like after this I'm going to watch Castle because it is the best! Haha.

White Dress + Competition


It is so weird how two different locations can change a photo so dramatically! I was originally just going to put the set above in this post but I really, really liked the second set too. I can be so indecisive sometimes. 

For weeks I've been lusting after the perfect white dress. I finally found one and it was a present from my lovely boyfriend.....he spoils me! The best thing about the dress for me, apart from the fact that it is white and has a collar, is that is has POCKETS. There is nothing better when a full skirt has pockets, it is a nice place for your hands to sit and is practical too :)

Sorry about the squinty, half closed eyes! I've been constantly sneezing and my eyes are just so itchy, the most frustrating thing to have is itchy eyes. If I rub them they just become sore! Bleurghhhhhhhhhh. I can't win aha.


Competition Time



So last week I was contacted by a very lovely company called Jovonna London to let me know about an amazing giveaway that they're hosting on their facebook. You can win a leather jacket, a top and a maxi skirt! All you have to do is like and share the competition on your facebook account.

Normally I would ignore emails like this as most of the time I wouldn't wear or buy anything from the brands that I get contacted by. But I looked at their website and fell in love! They have two branches within the brand. Jovonna which has a collection full of frills, pleats and rainbow shades gently complimented by soft nude tones and Jovonnista which uses unique and feminine materials to create a functional and pretty collection. 

You can enter the competition HERE! Enjoy!

Pleats and Stripes


Still sticking with the monochrome and it is still raining! I don't think the weather has realized yet that it is meant to be the summer....all this rain is driving me nuts! I was sunsunsun! Maybe if I bribe it with ice cream it will grace us with its presence and come out to play. Pretty, pretty please?! 

I'm in my last week of my holiday and I don't want to go back to work! It has been too nice to just relax and I've done an absurd amount of baking (I found out I can bake the best brownies in the World!!!) and cooking. Which has been so much fun! In two days I have an audition for a really amazing Drama School and I can't wait. This is what I plan to wear to it. I'm so excited!

This is one of my favourite outfits at the moment. The shirt is just perfect a mixture of white and black and stripes. I finally found a comfortable pair of boots! I wanted something that I can easily walk, skip or jump around in but I didn't want a completely flat shoe. I kind of, totally, completely walked my platform converse into the ground ahaha, they aren't looking so good right now.

Monochrome


Black and white has never been so appealing as it has done lately. I don't know why anymore but lately I've been gravitating a lot more towards to monochrome outfits rather than something that pops with colour. I still lust after colourful clothing but don't feel like wearing them. It is a weird feeling but I guess I'm just balancing my colourful wardrobe. 

I got the shirt and the trousers this morning in the post! I had been waiting for the package from Asos for days, excited over the two pairs of highwaisted trousers I'd ordered. I was so shocked to find these white ones were too big! Even though they were a size 10! Haha, I'm no size 8 but apparently at Asos I am. I guess I can't complain but I can be shocked. After shock had subsided, I came to my senses and just stuck a belt around them. It sucks that the size 8 sold out. The shirt is so pretty, especially when the wind blows. I love things that billow in the wind, it makes me feel like I'm gliding

Since my wardrobe is spilling over, I'm selling a few items on ebay! Have a look here if you're interested! Also, I made a facebook page for my blog......go have a look! My two weeks of holiday has started so I will be updating my blog, facebook and twitter a lot more!
