An oxford outfit.

OOTD #59

Hello loves, 

Well this month has been a total fail in terms of blogging! My sincerest appogies, I'm not even too sure what happened, time just ran away from me I suppose. 

As you read this I will be on my way to Paris (probably in a state of over excitement and sleepiness) and I cannot wait!  I've been looking forward to this trip for months, so expect a full report when I'm back! In the mean time, you can see what I'm up to on my twitter and Instagram :) 

Anyway, this is what I wore a few weeks ago for a lovely day trip to oxford. 

Top- Topshop

Skirt- H&M

Bag- Accessorize 

Shoes-Topshop

You must all know by now that I have a huge girl crush on the Clueless character Cher, so when I saw this skirt in H&M I had to have it. I love the way it sits, even if it is a little on the short side. This top has become a total staple in my wardrobe, it's the easiest thing to style as it goes with everything. This bag was the perfect day trip size, and I love the slightly unusual colour. These topshop shoes are another thing I can't stop wearing, they are so comfy now and add a bit of interest to most outfits. 

I hope you all have a great half term, it's been a long couple of weeks! 

What do you think of this outfit? What are you up to this week?

OOTD #49

Hi my lovelies, it's so nice to be able to sit down and blog for a bit!

I'm sure you're aware that I am in the middle of all my exams, they have all gone alright so far, although they haven't really felt that real or particularity final if you know what I mean? If you've been slogging away too I hope yours are  going well!

Anyway, this is what I wore today for a little trip to Olney to adjust my prom dress (which will hopefully now fit like a glove), have a spot of lunch and potter about a (very) little vintage fair- a welcome break form revision I'm sure you'll agree. Also, how pretty is all the blossom on the floor in these pictures? 

Shirt- H&M 

Locket- gift

Jeans- Topshop (here)

Watch- Olivia Burton (here)

Rings- vintage

Socks- Accessorize (gift)

Boots- Topshop (here)

I wore my gorgeous locket today, I thought it sat perfectly with my shirt un-buttoned (excuse the goosebumps going on here.)

I picked up both of these rings at aforementioned vintage fair (only £3 each!) I love the simplicity of the gold one and I couldn't resist the adorable pressed flower on burgundy.  

I wore my favourite Chelsea boots, they are seriously comfy and go with what ever you want to throw at them.

I absolutely love this shirt, it's so versatile and I wear it every season, I love the romantics/pirate feel about it!

What have you been up to lately? What do you think of this outfit?

Trend #13: Daisy crazy.

Happy Saturday everyone! 

The weather is absolutely beautiful today so I intend to take full advantage of it. I'm sure it will come as no surprised that this spring I am utterly obsessed with daisy print (you only have to look at my last OOTD and Instagram page!) So I thought it was only appropriate to do a full trend post on it. Maybe it will get it out of my system? Yeah I doubt it too. 

Topshop knitted jumper // Insane Jungle crop top // Boohoo black playsuit //River Island black skirt//Accessorize cross-body bag//Forever 21 makeup pouch

First up, this Topshop jumper is the most perfect spring knit; light but still super cosy, plus the slight dip hem is a lovely touch. I've been really loving the look of playsuits lately and this Boohoo offering ticks all the boxes, It would look equally good with a fluffy black cardigan and Chelsea boots as it would with a leather jacket and chunky heels. The crop top is a wardrobe staple for spring/summer and is a total steal at only £11. The little makeup pouch is also a bargain (£2.88!) and makes me wish even more that I had a Forever 21 near me. Lastly is the most adorable bag, perfect for any spring occasion! 

I'm so excited to tell you all that my blog hit 400 followers during the week, excited isn't even the word! Thank you all so very much.

Wish wish wishlist: Fashion.

Howdy everyone, I hope your all full to the brim with pancakes, I'm having mine later- I am far far to excited! 

At the moment I seem to be lusting after so much. I think it's the whole Spring transition thing going on right now. You know; new season, new wardrobe, new me? That's how I'm rationalizing it anyhow... With my Birthday coming up in 3 days and 1 month (hey, who's counting?) I'm hoping to get my hands on a few things! 

Topshop `Oui Non` t-shirt // New Look Blue top// Topshop Highwaisted denim shorts/ /Motel  A-line skirt // ASOS Cut-out flat shoes // Accessorize Black handbag// Primark Floral midi-dress// Primark Black skort

First up these shoes. I think I have a problem. I honestly can't stop thinking about them! I love the cut out detail, but also the fact that they are real leather - it's reeling me in. I may or may not have also started planning outfits around them... One thing I've wanted for an age is a skort, and this Primark one is a total steel at just £10, especially when you consider Zara prices. This Motel skirt has been calling to me for far too long as well, and seen as there are always Motel promo codes flying around I may have to invest. Pastel blue is my new favorite colour and I feel like this New Look top would go with everything. The `Oui Non` top is continuing my addiction with all things french; I just think it is so quirky and fun! This Primark dress has such a pretty print I couldn't not include it, plus I want to broaden my horizons form my usual skater style dresses and venture into the world of Midis- crazy I know. The bag and denim shorts are staples that every girl need is her repertoire, and mine is crying out for them!

Are you enjoying pancake day? What are your wishing for at the moment?

Hello my loves, 

I've got an outfit post for you today. This is a simple, comfy look, but I really like it. If you would like to see a FOTD post for this look, check it out here :)

Jumper- Topshop

Necklace- Accessorize 

Watch- Olivia Burton

Jeans- Zara

Socks- Accessorize 

Converse- Office

This is definitely my favourite necklace, it's just so versatile! It jazzes up a plain neckline and just adds some more interest to any outfit.

I was thinking about this the other day, and I've worn my watch for pretty much every day since my birthday and it's still as good as new and I love it as much as ever! Of course, today was no exception, I had my watch on :)

Another thing thats a total staple in my wardrobe are my white converse, they give any outfit that casual vibe which I love love love.

I know this wasn't the most inspirational OOTD out there , but I think it's good for the current transition we're going through, when one minute it's freezing the next there's beautiful sunshine! 

I hope your all doing well, I can't believe it's almost the end of September, time is seriously flying by at the moment.

Hours were days when I was in you grace.

Hiya loves, 

This is the last of the outfits I photographed whilst I was on holiday, which literally feels like it was a forever ago now!

Necklace- Accessorize

Crop top- Primark

Skirt- H&M 

Flats- Primark

The thing I love about this skirt is the print, Isn't it gorgeous! I love the combo of yellow, navy and white, it's a winner in my eyes. The material is really silky so I feels fab on, it's also fully lined so is a really nice quality garment.

I basically themed this whole outfit around the geometric print on the skirt, so I though my faithful triangle necklace fitted the bill nicely. 

As did this pair of primark flats. I adore the tiny  cut out detail, and of course they went really well with my beloved watch! 

This week has been a bit weird, the week has gone super fast, but everyday seemed to drag... I've decided to make all of my pictures larger, hopefully you can see my outfits better now! 

What do you think of this outfit?

School bag picks.

Hello loves,
Even though I am p off on my summer holidays (I'm in Scotland with my family currently!) my mind is slowly wandering onto the approaching school term in September. To me, there is always something quite refreshing about the new school year; new stationary, a different timetable, and the chance to really focus on things. However I am sure I will not be sounding quite so chirpy when the dreaded exam season rolls around...

Anyhow, I digress! I am on the hunt for a new school bag. I managed to break my one last year after excitedly jumping around after hearing a mock maths result. Yep, I was happy! So these are my top picks from the high street!

1-River Island studded tan tote 2- Accessorize goe tote 3- H&M burgundy bowling style bag
4- Accessorize bird print rucksack  5- River Island beige tote 6- Accessorize multi braid rucksack
7- H&M angular black tote 8- Topshop spot backback 9- River Island black tumbled tote

My favourite out of all of these is number 5, right in the middle! I really like all of these though :)

Which one is your favourite?

Only know you love her when you let her go.

OOTD #15

Happy Fathers day everyone! I'm not actually going out anywhere today, but I still fancied wearing a pretty dress :)

Earrings- River island

Necklace- Accessorize 

Dress- eBay (love label at Topshop)

Watch- Olivia Burton

Tights- Tesco

Converse- Office

I bought this dress quite a while ago now from eBay, but for some reason I never got round to wearing it, but this morning I just thought there was no time like the present! It's such a lovely deep plumb colour that I love for autumn/ winter, but seen as it's not exactly blazing sunshine outside right now *looks up to grey sky* I thought the colour would work :p

This is officially my favourite necklace :) It just goes with EVERYTHING!

I have been looking for one of these earrings out of the pair for yonks, and I found it in the bottom of my school bag, so I popped them in as quickly as possible! In other news, I also found my eyeliner, it was in my pencil case :p.

As soon as my Essie polishes came, I knew which one would grace my fingertips first, Action! I love this colour, i think it goes really nicely with the purple as well. 

Of course I also added my watch.

Right, I'm off to bake a cake! Enjoy the rest of your sunday :)

What do you think of my outfit? What are you doing today?
