New work haul

Monday 29 July 2013

So today I started my adventure into the real world, and by real world I mean I've got a big girls job ha. I decided that since it was payday weekend, I'd make the most of my pay cheque and go shopping.

Wallis, Primark, M&S, Dorothy Perkins, Forever 21, Topshop
Mustard lace panel cami (Forever 21), bright orange, pink and lacy pink vests (Topshop). Sorry there's no links for these guys, can't find them on either site!
Grey printed midi skirt (M&S), Red maxi skirt (Primark), Black jeans (Dorothy Perkins).
White polka dot pumps (Wallis), Beauty UK nail varnishes (superdrug), Necklace (Primark), Black bow pumps (Primark).

I know some of these items aren't work appropriate but still thought I'd include them as it isn't often I get to buy lots of things at once. I wore the red maxi skirt and black bow pumps with a black vest top for my first day, long skirt=no chance of the wind exposing my bum!

Comic strip

Sunday 21 July 2013

Okay, so I actually wore this Friday, not today, but shhh don't tell anyone!

I picked this skirt up a month or so ago from New Look but this is the first time I've been brave enough to wear it. It's a lot 'quirkier' than I'd normally go for, but once I had picked it up I couldn't put it down, and somehow it made its way to the till with me.

I am really liking printed skirts this summer. I have super pale legs, so unless I have time to do a bit of fake tanning, I'm not a fan of wearing short shorts or skirts so longer skirts are great for me.

What do you guys think? Is this skirt hideous or amazing?

Summer sale wishlist

Saturday 13 July 2013

I always get wary of creating a wishlist because I always end up buying it all. Massive uh-oh haha. I managed to restrain myself this time though and only ended up buying 2 of the items on this list.

1. I am loving this bikini from Asos, I like that there are more bikinis around with bottoms that aren't pieces of string, some of us need a little extra coverage.

2. These shorts from Forever 21 are super cute, but I won't be buying any shorts like that until I reach my goal weight. 5 pounds down, 8 or so pounds to go...

3. I must admit, I bought these sandals as soon as I saw that size 5 were still available. £15 for real leather, hell yes Topshop. I adore them, lots.

4. Can you ever have too many dresses? I don't think so. This little dress from Forever 21 is adorable, but I just know it would be too short for my liking. Boo.

5. I picked this up in the Topshop sale for my holiday in August. (I plan on being a little skinnier by then). It won't get a lot of wear in England but I just really liked the neon.


Chat soon everyone.

Studs and neons

Friday 5 July 2013

It is literally so hot today, 25° and still going up, being fair skinned and a natural red head... I feel like I'm melting! However, I thought I'd use the nice weather to try my new top out. I picked it up for a fiver in the oh my love sale and I adore the colour of it. It will definitely get lots of wear whilst the suns around.

Skirt: Primark

Top: Oh my love

Ring: Ever ours

 

I'm back full swing into my nail art obsession, today I'm sporting an ombré/dip-dye effect using my neon models own nail varnishes.

Annoyingly, this picture of my hair isn't great, I'd already had it up for a few hours before taking these pictures so there are lots of fly-aways but I adore this updo. I think it's so summery and chic and it keeps the hair off my neck which is a bonus in this weather.
