White Lace

In search of a new dress to wear on my night out with the girls on Saturday (which was long long overdue), I managed to pick up this beauty from the Topshop sale. I have had my eyes on this dress for a while now, the orange coloured one preferably but parting with nearly £50 wasn't an option. It was just out of luck that I popped into store on Saturday and some new lines had been added to their sale, including this. At just £25 I couldn't resist! I am not one for buying new outfits just for a night out any more, but this dress was a real bargain and it wasn't like I just bought it for the sake of it, I actually did think about buying it before it went in the sale. That's what I have been telling myself anyway...

I am really loving the lace trend that is taking place at the moment. This dress in particular is really flattering and made me look my age for once! I do love a classic white dress and think this one in particular is perfect for any occasion.

I teamed this up with an orange shoulder bag from River Island which looked amazing against the whiteness of this dress and a pair of black heels from New Look. However I do recommend a pair of tan heels something I will be investing in next time I get this dress out.

Shopping Haul | Summertime Sale

It is that time of year again, the sales are upon us and everybody is out searching for a bargain, including me. It was only by luck that I stumbled across the sales in my home town whilst out shopping for the last of my Glastonbury essentials last week. Amongst all the clutter I managed to grab myself a few bargains including these gorgeous midi rings which I have been wanting for ages from Topshop. These were only £4.50, half the price of their original sticker. Also in the sale, I picked up a patterned wrap black skirt, perfect to wear on a night out or even over a pair of black tights for work. This was only £10 when I got to the checkout, reduced from a whopping £38. A pleasant surprise I must say! Finally from the amazing Topshop sale I bought myself some tan suede boots. Again these were originally priced at around £40 but reduced to £10 in the sale. These will definitely come in handy when the colder weather comes around again. Yes I am prepared!

I also found these shorts (below) which weren't in the sale but for £10 I couldn't resist! I took these to Glastonbury last weekend as the weather was really nice when I was travelling down there. Shame it didn't stay like that throughout the whole of the festival but that's British weather for you! I will also be taking these away with me on holiday later this year. These short shorts are perfect to lounge around in on the beach.

I love a good pair of casual shorts

Topshop goodies - all my bargains together

I think I spent a total of £35 altogether which is amazing considering how much this lot would have cost me if all the items were full price. I love the sales and luckily got there just in time to get some bargains. Until next time...

New Hair and pastels | OOTD

Father's day brought many nice things including a huge family Sunday roast, two desserts (yes two) and of course an excuse to get dressed up in little something nice. As the sun was shining this was a perfect excuse to get my camera out and take some shots in my garden or what's left of it after the chickens have been let loose! 

I decided to go for a pair of new skinny jeans from Topshop as it was quite a warm day (but not quite warm enough for shorts), a pair of sandals from Primark which I bought quite recently and a gorgeous pink blazer, (again Primark) which I purchased last year. I think this look is perfect for those summer evenings when it's just cooling down. I love the colour of this blazer and think it works really well with my blue skinnies - the contrast between these two colours is lovely! The sandals which were only £8 are a very recent purchase and again are perfect for summer wear. These are very similar to the ones you will find in River Island at the moment but for a fraction of the price which is why I love Primark! I will only ever buy things that look like they're good quality products. 

I have also recently had my hair done. I'm not sure if you will be able to see really from looking at these pictures but I decided to have some more brown pulled through as I was starting to look like barbie! I really like it and think I may even go darker next time but I will have to wait and see as I am forever changing my mind. 

What pose shall I do?

Serious much?

And finally-the must buy sandals if they're still in stock

Thanks again for popping by and taking the time to read my posts. Coming up next time I will be speaking about some new beauty bits after a successful Benefit Makeover in Nottingham along with my hectic shopping haul today!
