black and white

Hello! My new look on lookbook! The weather is so changeable recently it's quite hard to know what to wear! As it was quite hot today I opted for a more summery look. I paired my crochet top from H&M with my dip hem skirt, also from H&M and my River Island black sandals. The top and sandals are from my summer wardrobe last year and I've definitely got a lot of use out of them! I really love the trend for dip hem skirts and dresses which has emerged this year. They're a perfect mix of mini and maxi - the best of each in my opinion! They can be easily dressed down or part of a more formal outfit with a bralet for a special occasion:) Thanks for reading! xxx

my favourite shirt and shoes

Hello! I thought I'd do an outfit post today. This is what I wore to college. My shirt is from Zara and I bought it in a bigger size than normal so I could wear it with leggings. It's a great length and I really like the baggy fit. I teamed it with my Topshop studded shoes, which I may have to buy a new pair of if I can find any! They sell out as soon as they come in in my local Topshop :(. I was inspired by Jessie J's outfit from an episode of The Voice. I love the disco pants and Jeffrey Campbells! I cannot enthuse enough about Zara at the moment! I can't walk in without falling in love with something else! I think they are great for delivering on trend key pieces which often aren't as expensive as Topshop or Urban Outfitters. I can't wait for the sale to start! :) Thanks for reading! :) xx

creepers

Hello! So after months of umming and aahing i've bought some creepers! I'd been looking at the Underground creepers, particularly the ones in Office. But at around £90, they were just a bit too pricey for me! However, they seem to be of a great quality and there are a lot of different colour combinations, so it's definitely worth keeping an eye out for any Office discount codes if you want to get your hands on some Underground creepers! I chose to buy a pair of black and leopard print creepers and..wait for it.. a PINK pair too! I love the pastel colour and how it contrasts with the edgy design of the shoe. I've already debuted my leopard print pair, now I just need to get the pink pair out there! I teamed my leopard print creepers with leggings, my Missguided American flag jumper and my Levi jacket. Another outfit I featured the creepers in was a bit more focused towards the shoes. I wore a white shirt with a black glittery jumper, leggings and my trusty Levi jacket (which probably wasn't the best choice as it's pouring with rain here!) I'll post pics soon! I got my creepers for the bargain price of £24.99 from a small shop in my town centre. I definitely recommend having a look in shops that don't necessarily always have something you like - you can be pleasantly surprised when you find an unexpected gem! Also, if you don't want to spend a lot of money on creepers there are some great ebay listings which can help! Also check out boohoo.com who stock a range of creepers, including a studded pair I might have to invest in soon! Thanks for reading!

bluebell woods!

hello! just a quick photo post in the beeeautiful bluebell woods! I love going to have a look around every year at this sort of time. It's so sad they don't hang around longer :( they'll have disappeared in a few weeks! so i'll be making the most of it while they're here! xxx

bargain! deichmann two tone flatforms

Hello! Bit of a random post today. I'm not quite sure how long it's been around, but a shoe shop called 'Deichmann' opened up in my town about a year ago. Until recently, I'd not been that bothered about it or even gone in! However, I've made my last two shoe purchases there! I bought a pair of cute leather look boat shoes for £14.99 and...TWO TONE FLATFORM WEDGES, again at just £14.99! They were on display and instantly caught my eye. I'd been looking for a pair of wedge flatforms after the lovely H&M black pair sold out in my size in my local store. I love the two tone detail, which looks like an Asos kind of detail. Despite being committed to flats for the daytime, these wedges are comfy enough to roam around in without too much trouble! They are also a complete bargain at £14.99! I couldn't quite believe the price! I definitely recommend heading to your local store or having a look at the website. You never know what you're going to find, even in the more unlikely shops!

you can have a look at the wedges here: thank you for reading! xxx

hair chalking!

Hello! I've been thinking about doing a coloured dip dye for a while. I'd heard about Kevin Murphy's Colour Bug, which is a product which will allow you to colour your hair and wash it out. I'd been intending to buy the Pink Colour Bug, but my local salon had run out. So I decided to try hair chalking! I used a chalk pastel to colour the ends of my hair. I was quite pleased with the results and it washed out really easily. There are quite a few useful youtube tutorials to tell you how to do it properly! It's important to use chalk pastels rather than oil pastels. It can also be a bit messy when you first apply it so if you try it, remember to wear old clothes! It's really easy to do so I'd really recommend it if you want to experiment with colour and still be able to wash it out!

aztec backpack

hello! apologies for the delay in posting, been busy lately!
Just a quick outfit post today. I bought this crochet crop top when I went to Camden last week. I can't wait until the weather's warm enough to be able to team it just with shorts and sandals! I'm also wearing my platform plimsolls. I love the height boost they give and they're a cheaper alternative to creepers. Again, I'm wearing my blue denim jacket which I can't seem to stop wearing lately! The weathers been a bit hit and miss lately so I still need the extra layer. I want summer to hurry up! I decided to debut my new Aztec backpack today! I'd been looking for one for ages when I found this one! It's a good size to be able to fit allll my stuff! I'm still a huge fan of aztec prints, so I think I'll be taking the Aztec trend into my summer wardrobe too!

Thanks for reading! :)
