Drunk in love

Skirt - Miss Guided // Top - H&M // Shoes - River Island 
Hey dolls, 

Oooh my, this is my first post since before Christmas! Bad blogger! I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas & a Happy New Year :) and also ate as much as me *cry face*. I now have to find myself a new gym and some motivation from somewhere to get a bangin bod for Summer....Zzzz. To be honest I am so ready for Summer. I know we have only just had Christmas but I always hate the in between part to Summer - I always find it so hard to dress for with the lovely UK weather (naaat).

Anyway I'm obviously madly obsessed with all PVC pencil skirts since Kimmy K was last rocking one (I bought the tan one from Topshop too!) so I decided to get this pretty pastel pink one from Miss Guided to wear over the Christmas period. I ended up not wearing it due to getting lots of nice things to wear from my family so I now need somewhere to wear this to! The only thing I found with this skirt is that it was a bit too long for my liking, so me being me, decided to give it the snip so it was the same length as my Topshop one. I was a bit apprehensive at first but its the type of fabric that wouldn't fray so it was all good. I had also been putting off the A\W sales because I hate how busy and ruthless people are and I'm just too lazy to be so hyperactive over a sale rail, unless it's something that I really want. Howevveeeeer, I went into River Island on a week day in the hope of less people and I managed to get some beaut new heels and a dress that will be ideal for summer! I'm not gonna lie, I was pretty chuffed with my purchases! 


Has anyone else ventured into the sales or are you a hater like me? Haha

Pocahontas

 Top - Get The Label* // Skirt - H&M // Indian Boots - River Island // Bag - Primark


Hey dolls!

Yaaaaaay it's Friday !! Hope you all have fun plans for the weekend, I'm not really doing much except working at Old Trafford on Sunday for the charity game. I hope it stays sunny! I decided to get back to the gym last night and I think I nearly died - definitely over did it :'( all in the name of a Summer bod though!

I recently got sent this gorgeous embellished top from Get The Label which I love. It's an oversized sheer top with a gorgeous gold embellishment pattern on the front. I love white and gold together and I think this is perfect for summer to throw on with a skirt or shorts. It's really lightweight and even comes with a cami that you can put underneath. You can get this HERE for just £12.99!! It RRP's at £26.99 so you are definitely getting a bargain. 

I teamed it with my brown H&M skirt which was something silly like £3. I have these in a few colours as I think they are so handy to have and are really comfortable to wear for both day to night wear. My Primark tassel bag was obviously a bargain too but I got this a few years ago. They have loads of tassel things in at the moment though so there is probably something similar knocking about if your a tassel lover like me! I also have been a bit naughty recently and bought myself these beautiful 'Pocha' tassel ankle boots that I have fallen in love with. I popped in River Island to see the new Rihanna collection (which is gorgeous) and then spotted these on offer from £45 to £25. I couldn't really resist, even though I am on a shopping ban and need to save my money....I just can't help myself. I don't really feel too bad though to be honest as they are super comfy, I will get loads of wear out of them and I got them nearly half price - can't complain! 


I hope you all have a fab weekend :)

Why can't I have it all...

wishlist


Hey dolls, 

Just thought I would give you a run down of my current wish list. I'm a little concerned that it's nearly all black but I just want need all these things in my life at the moment!

1. Feline Tee (similar HERE) - Ebay
Love these statement tee's that joke with the designer originals! Plus they are fab for just throwing on with pretty much any outfit! You can tuck this tee into anything, disco pants, high waisted shorts, dungarees, skater skirt - ANYTHING.


2. Off The Shoulder Bardot LBD - Love this simple Miss Guided LBD, it's perfect for pretty much any night out and can be dressed up in so many ways! I love the off the shoulder 'bardot' look as well, very cute. 
 
3. Gold Chain (Similar HERE) - I have recently been buying everything off ebay when it comes to jewellery, there are so many bargains I just don't see the point in forking out for something in Topshop when you can get pretty much the same via Ebay! 
 
4. Homies beenie - Another Ebay lust! Love these beenies, I've always been a bit precarious as to whether I even suit them but I'd like to give this one a try. 
 
5. Dope 24k Logo Snapback- Karma loop is one of my new faves for fashion. I love so many things on here! Espesh the aaccessories! Only problem is that it's an American website and I haven't bought anything yet so not sure about delivery etc! 
 
6. Fermina Leather Heeled Sandles - I have loved these shoes ever since I saw them in zara a while back. I really like the double strap at the top on these Miss Guided ones and they are a very classic pair of shoes to have in the wardrobe :) ! 
 
7. Rihanna for River Island Boots - I always feel a bit hit and miss about celeb collaborations but if it's someone I love i.e. Kardashians I always end up buying something. However when I heard Rihanna was collaborating, I was super excited as I LOVE her style and would consider her as one of my favourite fashion icons. I was immediately drawn to these boots when I walked into the store and they are all I can think of when it comes to shoes at the moment - NEED! 
 
8. Black Almina Halterneck Bodysuit - I have actually just bought this after seeing Melissa from Pretty Little Obsessions posted this on her instagram looking lovely! I have wanted the AA one for a while but never got round to getting one, so for less than half the price I couldn't really say no to this one! 
 
9. Denim Skater Skirt - Again, another item I have been wanting for a while! I wear my leather skater skirt to death and I am definitely in need of a Summer version! I love light wash denim and I can't wait till this is back in stock in my size in Fashion Union so I can add this to my wardrobe! 
 
10. Rihanna for River Island Split Maxi - Another Rihanna want! I couldn't have a wish list without a 'split' being featured somewhere could I?! A girl obsessed. I absolutely love everything about this dress and I think it is gorgeous! It's not very summery, but the weather is hardly hitting high climates at the moment so I think I'm safe! 

Do you like anything off my wish list? What are you lusting after at the minute?

Heart & Maxi Skirt | V Day


Hey dolls, 

Happy Valentine's Day :* I hope all you loved up lot are getting spoilt today or tonight! I just thought I'd do a little post on what I am wearing today and obviously show the love by wearing my love heart jumper all in spirit of the V day! I do think Valentines day is very overrated but I think it's pretty cute if you are in a relationship all the same :) n'aaaw! 
I got this split maxi skirt from, yeah you guessed it - Primark! ha ha, I have rediscovered my love for Primark recently as they are bringing out some really good pieces and if you didn't know already I love a good side split! They have these skirts in a range of colours and patterns and are such a bargain at £8! I find these perfect for the Spring to Summer transition and are so easy to wear literally throw any top or slouchy jumper on and bam, outfit done! My jumper I have on I got from some random shop in Manchester last year but I have seen a lot flying about at the moment as Wildfox dupes! I whacked my cream bobble hat on as its freeeeeezing and it felt appropriate! 

Hope you all have a lovely evening tonight whatever you do!
