Vintage Floral | Koo-Ture

                               Dress - Koo-Ture // Shoes - Stylist Pick

Hey Dolls, 
  Hope you are having a nice weekend. I have had a really busy week and I have headed home to the lakes for my pops 50th :) We went for a yummy meal at a super nice restaurant in the lakes and I can't tell you how ready I was stuff my face! I ordered a big fat steak (sorry if you're veggie) and it was delicious. I have had a pretty busy week, although I have been seriously slacking with the gym, UGH. I have had the pleasure of going to two amazing events this week just gone though, which were super fun. Busy, busy.

I need this week to go really quick as me and my friend managed to book a last minute trip to Egypt which I am TOO excited about! I need some sunshine in my life! I can't wait to get in my bikini and get me some tan! I've never been to Egypt before so if you have and you have any tips for me, please share!

Aside from my ramble, the dress I have on is from where I work and as soon as I saw it I wanted it. It is super girlie and probably not one of my obvious choices but I can't wait to wear it. I think it's pretty versatile and can be worn for through the day or dressed up at night. When I first saw it, my mind immediately thought of festivals as I think it is perfect teamed with converse or wellies!

I have put a pair of heels with it on the picture as I wanted to see how it would look dressed up PLUS I have never actually wore these heels that I fell in love with and got last year from 'Stylist Pick'. Where has all the hype from this site gone? I can remember getting my Cheryl Cole shoe boots from there and then I haven't really heard from them since!?

Anyway, As neon is very on trend at the moment I thought these bright yellow heels bring out the yellow in the dress and look pretty cute for a night out or special occasion. I also loved the deep-v back - I love anything backless! Unfortunately the dress I have has sold out due to high demand but there are also various other prints and styles on the website which you can find HERE.

Hope everyone has had a good weekend, I can't wait to get stuck into my Sunday dinner soon ... MMM!

Karma Clothing | Neon Midi

Dress - Karma Clothing* // High Tops - Footlocker

Hey dolls!
Yayyy its Fridaaaaay! Hope everyone's got a lovely weekend planned! I have been super busy going backwards and forwards from home the past few weekends doing driving lessons and my new job which I LOVE (I got to meet Neyo and Tulisa - Agh!) and what not, mad busy!  I wanted to share with you a new piece to my wardrobe from the amazing Karma Clothing website. I am new to Karma Clothing but I am very happy that I am now in the know with this online company as the clothes are super on trend and at ridiculously good prices they are hard not to love! When I was browsing I literally couldn't believe my eyes when I saw how cheaply priced some of the products were. You definitely need this website in your life!

I was very kindly asked to choose something from the range and I was drawn to this midi dress straight away whilst having a browse. I absolutely love the whole tie dye style print and the neon colours - perfect for Spring/Summer, plus I can wear this now due to the long sleeves and the midi style, win-win! I would wear this dress for both through the day and for a night out (the joys of a versatile midi dress!) I have teamed this dress for through the day with an all white pair of Airforce1 Nike high tops but this would also look fab with some heels as well! I wore this for work yesterday and I got so many complements for it, this dress gets a massive thumbs up :)

Karma clothing have LOTS of midi's online at the moment so you are literally spoilt for choice! The midi I am wearing is now just £7.95!!!! Yes, you heard it right, £7.95. If that's not a bargain I don't know what is! You can get the dress HERE.Plus there are lots of other styles and patterns available at the same price so go and have a browse ;) 


Do you shop at Karma Clothing? Do you love a midi dress like me? 

Ps. I would also be SUPER grateful if you would nominate my blog for best newcomer - fashion award, only if you enjoy my blog of course :) ! HERE.

Style Crush/Girl Crush: Cheryl Cole

Hello Beautifuls!

So today I was going to blog about last nights FHM 100 Sexiest Party in London. The obvious who was wearing what and the controversy of Tulisa stealing the hot spot. That was until I saw Cheryl's new video for 'Call My Name' and her style choices p*ssed all over the FHM party attire!

When I first heard the song I wasn't too sure and it has slowly grown on me. However, the video always makes a song for me, so I know I'm going to end up loving it from first viewing. I am so in love with all the outfits Chezza is wearing - want, want, want !! Her hair is also looking gorgeous and in good condition! I wasn't too sure about her being blonde. Despite the fact she can carry off anything, I definitely prefer her brown glossy locks - with lots of extensions of course! She even has it cut in my favourite style... very Eva Mendes! LOVE.




The exciting thing is we can actually buy these things from Net-A-Porter , downside is that they aren't exactly cheap. Sigh! We can still 'wish list' them though, right?!


(L-R) Altuzarra Blazer - £1,040
Dolce & Gabbana Bikini Bottoms - £150
Brian Atwood 'Alima' tri-colour peep toes £670

Although I cant find a perfect high street match for the blazer, I am hoping someone catches sight of the new Chezza vid and whips up a beautiful floral/tropical blazer at a price I can afford! Otherwise, I'm hitting the vintage shops! Here are some High Street similars I found ...




Oasis £55.00





Heels.com $90
Jessica Simpson


I'm not usually a huge fan of 'neon' as it reminds me of my younger days when I used to think it was okay to paint myself in neon when I went on a night out ...! However, I love the clash of prints Cheryl is wearing and I think if there is no blazer alternative, a tropical print sheer shirt would look just as good. Tied on the hips with the leopard print shorts and you are ready for Summer!

That's all from me and my Cheryl appreciation :) Hope everyone has a lovely day !!


Peace & Love

xoxo
