Tie Dye, Backpacks, Flatforms and Pugs

Dress - Topshop// Flatform Sandals - ASOS// Socks - H and M// Backpack - Fjallraven

Happy Saturday everyone! I would be glad it's the weekend but it only means one thing to me - work! 

I wanted to show you my new tie dye dress which is from the Petite section of Topshop. It was £29 which is where Topshop can be seen to be overpriced for a simple summer t-shirt dress but the student discount swayed me! I purchased it in the Oxford St store while doing my work experience. Things like this are just so easy to chuck on, on hot days. I teamed it with my new ASOS flatform sandals which was their first outing since I bought them. As you can see I teamed my backpack (which was one of my lovely gifts from the Red Magazine fashion team which I introduced in my previous post) with this outfit so you could see it in use! 

Back packs and summer dresses just look too cute.

What do you think?

Flatforms and Fur

Shirt - ASOS//Gilet - ASOS//Pleather Pants - H&M// Flatforms - ASOS//Earrings - River Island

The weather this bank holiday has been so awful I have resorted to bringing the fur back out, so much for changing my wardrobe over for Summer. This English weather is Crazy! I only popped out to get some new crazy colour hair dye and I got there and it was shut :( so I popped into Pets at Home and got some bits for Albert. 

I nabbed this shirt and gilet from ASOS in the January sales and to be honest this is only the second or third time I have worn it but I love the bird print and how it looks with the gilet and pants.

I haven't worn my beloved flatforms in a while so I decided to get them out of my wardrobe and wear them with this.

I hope you all had a lovely Easter and bank holiday weekend.

Summer Shoes

1-4 - Topshop//5-9 -ASOS

I hope you've all had a lovely weekend! I've had the first weekend off of work since the last of my holidays in August and it's been so nice and relaxing, yesterday I got my photoshoot for uni done where we had to get a model and three outfits together that were a S/S trend and shoot them all. I will put some pictures up for you asap, it was super fun.

Apart from the atrocious whether in Kent today the weather has been much better recently where I no longer feel like I have to go outside wearing a winter coat, so I've been thinking about summer footwear.

I'm not one for wearing heels during the day time but with only being 5"2 I'm thinking that for this summer I'm going to invest in some of the shoes above maybe not 8 because they are a tad high for the day time but I love them nonetheless. The last pair (9) are actually Dr Martens and with the floral design and cut out I think they are so cute and perfect for sunny days. I'm also thinking that pair number 5 will look super cute teamed with frilly socks.

What do you think of heels for day time?

Tres Cool

Jumper - H&M//Dress - Dorothy Perkins//Flatforms - ASOS//Tights - ASOS//Ring - Stall in Marbellaa

I love midi dresses/skirts at the moments and can't get enough of this dress from Dorothy Perkins which I have showed you recently and is a replica of the Topshop one but £10 cheaper.

I've had this jumper from H&M since September but I haven't really worn it that much and I think this is the first time it has made an appearance on the blog. I wore it today as it was a bit chilly and I thought I would put it over my dress just to get another look from it and I really love that it gives my outfit some colour although maybe I should have worn it before I had my hair dyed dark pink!  I got it at the time jumpers with slogans on were "big" and it reads 'Tres Cool'. I teamed it all with my flatforms (which I have been wearing to death)

I love the tights because although they are black, with the detail down the side they aren't just boring thick black tights.

I go to Marbella in Spain every year on holiday with my family and I picked up my ring on a cute little jewellery stall. Love it.

All of this was finished off with my lovely black lipstick which is by Miss Sporty and was about £2.35. I never buy cheap make-up - everything I have is either Benefit, MAC or Bobby Brown but I wanted to try it out to see whether I'd like it and didn't want to pay £13 for a MAC one just incase, although now I know I can. This Miss Sporty one is great for the price although it does tend to 'bleed' so I'm thinking of lining my lips with black eyeliner first.

Hope you like!

I saw Millie from MIC and Brix Smith with her black pug Gladys - aww! I also saw Jameela Jamil again but unfortunately was unable to get a decent picture this time.

It's All About The Midi

Dress - Dorothy Perkins// Tights - House of Holland for PP (exclusive to ASOS)// Earrings - ASOS// Flatforms - ASOS// Jumper - ASOS// Ring - Topshop

I went to Nandos last night with my friends as some of them had come home from university and I only went for the first time in September and for someone who isn't a meat fan at all and I only really eat chicken I quite liked it. Although I only go for lemon and herb and even that is a bit spicy!

So this is what I wore -
If someone had told me a year or so ago that I would wear a dress past my knee I would never have believed them. It was always about the mini for me through my teens up until about 17ish when I wore my first maxi dress and since then I actually love the longer length as it gives a whole new look.
This Midi Dress I wanted from Topshop but when I saw it was £29 it out me off. I then saw on the Dixi clothing blog that Dorothy Perkins had pretty much the same thing for £10 less and the added bonus of 25% off for students. I hurried over there quickly and found this beauty for £19.50 (£14.60 with discount) in navy or grey and I picked the navy (although it almost looks grey). I also managed to pick up a pleated midi skirt for £5 with only an £8 left so of course I bought that as well, no doubt I will blog about it soon.
Earrings - I'd been after some cross earrings for a while so I got these on ASOS for £6 as they were the right size I was after.
Jumper - I saw this Knitted Jumper on the blog 'Olivia on a mission' she mentioned it was from ASOS so I looked on there and it was £20 from £50 in the sale and they had every size and still do - mine is an XS. I just put this jumper on so I didn't have to wear a coat out as I feel they can sometimes ruin outfits. Although, I wish I had put one on because I froze! It's definitely one of those pieces that can be layered over anything.
Tights - As you all know I've been a bit obsessed with tights recently and I now own 5 pairs of House of Holland for PP tights and this is one of them. They were £12 exclusive to ASOS but I got these when they were doing 25% student discount.
Flatforms - I know I blogged about my lovely new shoes when they arrived on Friday but I couldn't help myself but to wear them when I could so here they are again. £25 ASOS.

I hope you've all had a good weekend so far.

Flatforms

Top - Topshop// Jeans - ASOS// Ring - ASOS// Flatforms - ASOS// Nail Polish - OPI 'Do You Lilac It?'// Models Own Nail Art Pen - ASOS

I've possibly had one of the worst days today but I am so glad it's Friday!
This is what I wore today...
I got my top in the Topshop sale for £25 from £55 and they only had an 8 left so I told myself it was fate. I love velvet, pretty collars and crosses so this top was perfect.
My jeans are plum coated cigarette jeans which almost look like leather. I'd been after a pair of trousers like this for a while and I nabbed these in the sale for £16.
Last but not least are my new velvet flatforms, after seeing these on ASOS I couldn't believe that they were only £25 which I got student discount off as well and I love them, I know they aren't everybodys cup of tea but they're super comfortable. Sadly, I should have got a 3 as they slip a little bit when I walk I've been noticing this a lot recently so maybe I should just start buying a size 3.
After seeing lots of people having beautiful nails on their blogs it made me want to buy a nail art pen so I did. It was £6 from ASOS and as you can see above I attempted polka dots. (not very well none the less) Hopefully I will get a bit more artistic with it.

What do you think of flatforms?
