Todays Wishlist...

My wish lists change like the bloody weather. Change as in just added to... not like I'd turn it down if it was given to me - I just want more and more all.of.the time! My life would be a whole lot easier if I wasn't bothered about fashion in the slightest.

 

This Givenchy necklace is actually a Men's necklace but who cares? I don't! It's freakin' beautiful and would most definitely look better on women! I wouldn't be exactly 'over the moon' if I saw my other half wearing it anyways...

 

Most of these bits are Givenchy to be honest, who is my absolute fave designer at the moment, you literally cannot fault their designs lately - so different and unpredictable. I've wanted the Antigona Tote for a long long time now, and still can't decide whether I like the patent black to the gradient leather one? It's so difficult! Although the beige one is bloody gorgeous as well! Without doubt one of those bags you can have in many colours. I think many people will see this bag as quite plain but I love it for that reason, plus it's nice to be a tad different to everyone else.

Need I say anything about the Giuseppe cage heels?!

Don't ask why but I've always had a slight attraction to rope detail; hence why I find these Jimmy Choo's flawless! Something about the whole gladiator look is really starting to warm to me as well right now...

This jacket is kind of Wintery buuut I find Khaki so hard not to love!

Easy Evening Wear

When it comes to figuring out outfits for evenings my mind is just all over the place. I feel as though I have completely worn pencil skirts utterly to death! So I was desperate to find something different. It really irritates me when I wear the same look/outfit more than once or twice - sounds ridiculous but it can't be helped! Taking full advantage of the smart, dominant look that's been floating around for a while, I decided to go for a simple light shirt, dark jeans and strappy heels. 

Whatever style you're into and no matter how much of a girly girl you may or may not be, these white shirts need to be in your wardrobe and stay in your wardrobe! They are so so handy and can completely transform your look (not the work office kind of shirts though, please don't get them mixed up, this is supposed to be a relaxed look rather than "cheers for dinner, I'm going to work now, byeee!" Hell no, put that shirt awaaay!). 

I was preparing myself for evening outfits as we were meeting my ma and pa in the New Forest. I planned to wear this outfit to a particularly posh restaurant but it was very hot that day and I had a teeny weeny bit of sun stroke so I had to have my legs out in the open with no trouser contact whatsoever! The next evening at a not-so-posh restaurant, I wore my hair down with this outfit as it tones it down a bit, as I like to think hair up in a clip is much more of a delicate look that creates more effort to your outfit - which would've been good to do, as planned - damn that sun stroke!

PS - Makes a great dinner date outfit!

Making the most of living on the coast.

 

I didn’t actually mean for that to rhyme… I wouldn’t want you all to think I’m some sort of smart person hahahaha! That would be funny.

As I’m moving from my house that I’ve lived in since I was diddy I’m trying to appreciate living by the sea, so I decided to take my lovely mum out for lunch to eat on the beach so I thought this would be the perfect time to do an outfit post!!

It was originally so hot and sunny yesterday I decided to show a bit of English rose skin but of course, as soon as i set my foot outside the door it goes grey, dark and miserable, so my bad guys! That’s why I’ve decided to run a black and white filter through these pics as there’s absolutely no point in showing the real colour as it is miserable as shit! Plus my main colour scheme was black and white so you know, it made a lot of sense!

Hope you all have a great Easter and stuff your faces with as much chocolate as possible! … We all know it’s worth it ;)

Run in the park

How beautiful are my new running shoes? If there’s anything to motivate me through anything, then it can only happen through fashion! My boy knows what I like!

A run in the park after a long day at work is always a good idea.

The Black Fur Gilet.

Oh my gaddd! Now I know what the fuss is all about with these fur gilets! Bea-uutiful!

This gilet is new to my wardrobe so I wanted to do a post on it anyways but knowing how many outfits you can get out of this statement piece made me want to be a bit more creative and set up a few styles than just the one, to show what outfits I’d choose for any occasion. 

The first outfit you can see is how I used the gilet to completely transform a very very casual look - leggings and strappy top, plus pointy wedges to add more chic. This outfit is gorgeous for an everyday look!

The black PVC skirt is also kinda new, I bought it in the January sales and haven’t actually worn it yet! I’m tempted to also snatch up a beige one, everybody seems to be heading for the baby pink tone so I think I’ll go the opposite direction! I love this outfit for a dinner date evening - maybe not for me though as this skirt isn’t one of my mans favourites LOL! still that shouldn’t stop me should it girls!!  XD

Casual outfit no.2! Well now that spring is more or less here now I really liked this look, plus I hadn’t tried out sneakers with dresses/skirts before so I gave it a go and it grew on me by the second! These are my new babies too, I am in love with them! I’ve always wanted a pair of Khaki running shoes, as my other half and I were up at lakeside in IKEA at the weekend we wanted to go in to YO! Sushi for lunch in Blue Water so whilst being up that end we kinda, accidentally fell in to Foot Asylum on the way… Ooopsa Daisy. Great shop for whacky, unique trainer designs btw, would definitely recommend it!

The last look is more of a sophisticated look, I like to see this outfit as a ‘drinks with the girls look’ or maybe the ‘london look’. This is the exact reason why I LOVE this gilet, I can’t find an outfit it doesn’t go with! What’s not to love about that?

I hope you like it and you see why I have chosen many outfits to show you, the power of jackets. All you need are a multiple amount of outfits with one statement piece.

My Perfect LBD

I bought this beaut of a dress at London Fashion Week about, two years ago? Who knows whyyyy it’s taken me so long to wear it, but I thought if I can’t wear it to an engagement party then when else can I wear it!?

It’s a Peridot London number so it’s a beautiful designer label but I couldn’t bring myself to wear black to any weddings planned for the year! It has bone structure down the front as well as the strappy detailed cleavage so it added a lovely shape, without it I’d probably look like a box as it was a smidgen too big… plus it had pockets which didn’t help the boxiness - buuut I still love it! The mesh panel at the back was also a beautiful part of the dress I love it when parts of the dress flows round to the back instead of having everything on the front, makes dresses look half finished!! These kind of designs are very hard to find.

Hope you like it as much as I do!! :)

 

ACDC 40th anniversary!

So since hearing about ACDC’s 40th anniversary tour announcement I thought I’d do a beloved post to express my beyond excitement and what you rock chicks could be wearing to their concerts! Tickets or dates haven’t even been released yet but I can’t help but feel ecstatic!! I went to go and see them in Tampa FL at Christmas in 2007 and it was hands down one of the best experiences of my life! There’s no band like ACDC and to think when I saw them that it was my only chance I had to see them live has completely taken me by surprise!! I won’t be happy until I get my paws on some tickets!! 

Here’s one of my many DC tshirts that I should definitely rock more often! Making the most of the latest trends whilst it’s on it’s last legs until the new trends gradually stumble out and shove it out the way. I hadn’t tried out the whole 90’s look of tying shirts around the waist so gave it a shot with my skort and open buckled booties! 

I would’ve made more effort with my hair but I’m just about to go for a run so it seemed prettypointless, besides - who doesn’t love a good messy bun ay?!

PS I have only just started putting on Garniers Summer Body Lotion (a few posts below) so sorry if I blind you with my abnormally albino skin tone!!

Roll. On. Summer.

The latest nail colour.

Whenever I go for a dramatic dark colour I always crave a more natural tone for when I next get my nails done and I feel a ton better as soon as! 

Gotta love having your nails done.

Autumn Colours

When you don’t know how to fill your day, blogging always springs to mind! 

I thought I’d do a little style post to show off my beauuutiful Carvela Kurt Geiger heels I got for Christmas! Every girl needs a pair of these black strappy heels, you honestly cannot fail as they can and will go with everything! Especially these ones as they are covered in teeny tiny black crystals, erghh I love them so much! Ripped jeans seem to be a massive hit right now which makes me happy as I have had these Abercrombie ones since I was 14!! What goes around comes back around ladies… 

This dog loves a picture, it may look like I’ve called her over to get in the shot but no, she loves to get involved in a good ol’ selfie ;)

I went for the Autumn tones for this look which I found soo easy to put together as I laaaave these colours and had many options to choose from! I think it’s safe to say that I blended in with the carpet and the dog fairly well… 

Hope you like it guys and gals! :)

My newest addition to the wardrobe and favourite style right now. 

You can’t beat a simple look that goes a long way. Yes it may be just a tshirt and a pair of trousers, but thankfully for the designs on these clothes, accessories are completely unnecessary. No girl wants to look OTT! This look is also pretty good for summer too, as it’s incredibly light so needless to say, it’s comfortable! I am loving the whole smart suit kinda look at the moment so I just had to get myself some of these cropped, fitted pants and with the very dark leopard design I can’t say I wasn’t tempted. Christmas voucher well and truly spent.
