All We Need Is Somebody To Lean On

 Dress - Bershka,   Bracelet - Pandora,   Boots - Deichmann




I recently took a last minute and impromptu 5 day visit to Barcelona and I LOVED it! The place was so amazing and beautiful, with amazing weather and beaches! Whilst out there I obviously did some (a lot) of shopping and I managed to pick up this lovely maxi dress! Not only is the pattern nice, its also the perfect length for my short height!! I'm about 5ft 1/5ft 2 so finding long dresses that don't drag along the ground, like a small child wearing it's mother's clothes, is extremely difficult! 

I also adore the back, it's pretty much open with some straps which cross over. This makes it perfect to wear on a summers evening if you're popping out up the pub or to a friends! However, you could also dress it up with heels and wear out :)

The material is also very light with two slits up each side (which is great on a hot, summers day! Especially in England at the moment) but it also has a slip underneath to ensure it's not see through!! (Nothing worse than see through clothes.)
I believe I bought this dress for around €25 which is a bargain when converted to pounds.

Anyway I'm off to enjoy this sunny weather we're getting at the moment! Below are some of my favourite pictures I took on my Barcelona trip! Hope you enjoy :)

Oh, I'm A Mess Right Now Inside Out

 Dress - Missguided,      Satchel Bag - River Island,        Belt - Forever 21,        Trainers - Vans,                 Sunglasses - Topshop





Today Fay and I had the day off so we decided to head into town for some outfit pictures! I am loving this new dress I got recently from Missguided. I wasn't too sure on it at first but now I absolutely love it! I love the patterns on it and really love the colour of it! It's actually a smock style dress but I thought it suited me better with a belt round the middle so it didn't swamp me haha

I teamed the dress with my trusty Vans as usual! I don't actually own any sandals or summery shoes so should probably invest in some as I can't live in trainers for the whole summer haha

The weather today started off really hot and rather nice! However, come the evening it had started to rain and got a tad chilly so I looked a bit silly in a dress haha Fay and I had a Nandos (which I got for the grand price of £2.80 as I had a Nandos reward ;P) and then we headed back to mine to chill out and drink tea with biscuits!

Hope you enjoyed this blog post!

When We Were Younger We Thought Everyone Was On Our Side



Daisy dress - Missguided,         Sunglasses - Topshop,          Satchel bag - River Island,            Trainers - Vans




Today was a lovely day in England and I decided to go meet Fay on her break at work as she would have been on her own otherwise! We bought a Subway and headed to the park to sit in the sunshine and chill out! Afterwards we popped into a couple of shops and then I quickly took some outfit pictures as I am loving this new dress from Missguided!

So last night I started looking at clothes online and this never ends well as I normally end up finding something I like, which is not good for my bank balance! I always forget about looking on Missguided but this time I did and ended up finding some lovely dresses which included this one. I'm really into skater dresses and this one immediately caught my eye!

If you spent over a certain amount you got free next day delivery but I wasn't actually expecting it to come today as I ordered it quite late so it was a nice surprise to find out it did turn up this morning! This was a perfect opportunity to whip out my new coral Vans as well :) I really love the neckline on this dress as well as I don't own many v neck style items and this one isn't too revealing either haha I was also pleasantly surprised by the quality, it's not a thin flimsy bit of material, so definitely worth the money!

Hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather in England at the moment! It's beautiful but no doubt will be back to raining soon aha

When I Met You In The Summer


Dress - Boohoo.com,     Belt - Forever 21,      Trainers - Vans,       Satchel bag - River Island,       Sunglasses - Topshop 

After a wild saturday night out clubbing for Shane's birthday, and still feeling it Sunday, it was nice to wake up on Monday to some lovely weather! I didn't get up as early as planned, as you can imagine I didn't get much sleep over the weekend haha 

However once I had arisen, Fay text me to say that it was lovely weather and she was outside in her garden blogging so I thought I'd join her! I've never worn this dress from Boohoo before as it's a little big but with a belt around it I thought it looked quite nice! I love the colours and patterns in it, so may have to wear this more often! The sunny weather also gave me a chance to test out my new Topshop sunglasses which I love <3

The nice weather lasted until the evening where it then started to rain! Typical British weather for you! Although it was still rather warm so the dress was still appropriate haha 

I'm now getting ready to hit up the gym with Fay so thought I would put this up before I went as Fay wants to watch Harry Potter afterwards :P

A Sky Full Of Stars


 Black Skull Top - Urban Outfitters,    Pink Joni Jeans - Topshop,    Trainers - Vans,    Bag - River Island



So this new outfit post is featuring a new pair of classic Vans trainers with a galaxy print, which I recently bought, and I absolutely love them <3 On Sunday it was lovely weather so I visited the local town with my best friends for some lunch and a drink and thought it was a perfect opportunity to wear them!

I teamed the new shoes with my (also new) Topshop Joni jeans in a lovely pink/coral colour! I then found my black skull top from urban outfitters which went perfectly with the whole outfit! Of course I also took my new River Island satchel bag as I am also loving it too haha

We found some really cool new places to take pictures this time! This is a lovely little town and as it was a nice day we thought we'd go for a walk and along the way we came across a lot of great places for photo opportunities! 

This outfit is probably a favourite of mine at the moment as I love the colour of the Joni jeans and I get a bit fed up wearing the same coloured trousers all the time so it's nice to add a bit of colour to my life when I wear these jeans!

Hope you enjoyed!

For Crying Out Loud, Settle Down

Leather Jacket - Miss Selfridge,  Jumper - Billabong,  Joni Jeans - Topshop, Trainers - Vans,  Bag - River Island




Another outfit post! This one is also featuring a few items I recently bought with my birthday money :) 
Went for the wonderful Joni Jeans in a dark blue colour as I already have the black and paired them off with my new coral/pink coloured Vans! Loving these new Vans shoes as I've wanted a pair of the slip ons for a while and was originally going to go for black but I saw these in the shop and they immediately caught my eye! Seeing as I already own a lot of black shoes I thought I would get a different colour for once haha

I then fished out my cream Billabong jumper which I bought in Florida when I visited there last year! It's so soft, lightweight and comfortable! Seeing as I live in the UK, one weekend it's warm and sunny, the next it's cold and rainy so my Miss Selfridge leather jacket was perfect for this day as it was a bit drizzly and cold! 

Finally my new River Island bag which I absolutely love! I am a massive fan of the satchel bags and when I saw it I instantly liked it! The colour, the style and size was perfect for me so I had to get it, would have been silly of me not to ;) 

Hope you liked this outfit post! Got more coming soon :)

Take Some Time To Simmer Down, Keep Your Head Down Low


 Crop Top + Joni Jeans - Topshop, High Heels - New look



Quick little outfit post! I went shopping the other day as I had some money from my birthday recently and I found these little beauties in New Look! Most of my shoes are black so I decided to go for red to add a bit of colour into my life haha

I love these types of high heels/wedges with the thick heel and platformed sole as they are super comfortable especially on a night out when you are stood in them for hours and dancing etc!! They are also a little safer than the thinner heel as after a few drinks when you're feeling a little merry you can be a bit unsteady on your feet!

It's my best friends birthday next week and we're heading out for a bit of clubbing so I may end up wearing this outfit!

Anyway, I have some more outfits lined up for some posts in the future so keep your eye out! :P

You Should Know Things Aren't What They Seem

 Striped vest + high waisted shorts - New Look, Trainers - Vans

 Sunglasses - New Look




The weather in England these past few days has been wonderful! I've just come back from Italy and this weather at home has made it slightly better having to leave there!

Fay and I decided to head into our local town and make the most of the nice weather by taking some outfit pictures whilst also chilling, doing a bit of shopping and having a cheeky Costa! There are some really nice places to take photographs in this town as it has cute little side streets and big fields near by which was the perfect setting in this lovely weather!

Afterwards we hit up the gym and then treated ourselves to a Nandos with Shane :P which was nice as I'd been on holiday and hadn't had it in a while! Nandos is a big favourite of mine!

Anyway here's hoping England has a nice summer this year! My next post will hopefully be of my holiday to Rome, it was an amazing place!

Keep Your Hopes Up High and Your Head Down Low


Denim Jacket - Miss Selfridge,  Checkered Crop Top - Topshop, Black Joni Jeans - Topshop, Trainers - Vans, Bag - Accessorize


So today my best friends and I decided to head into town and have a Costa as it was a lovely day :) At the moment I am absolutely loving this outfit which consists of my black Joni Jeans and a denim jacket! As always I like to top off my outfit with a pair of trusty vans haha!

My girl crush and style icon at the moment is Jenna McDougall who is the lead singer of a band called Tonight Alive, if I could look like her and have her style then that would be great!! So I'm hoping this outfit looks Jenna McDougall-ish haha

This was a very impromptu photoshoot as we were walking down these cute lanes in the town near us and decided it was a good back drop for some outfit photos! So here's my outfit! Hope you like, as I keep saying I need to do more soon!

You Are Surrounding All My Surroundings


Top - Vans, Joni Jeans - Topshop, High heels - Tesco


Denim Jacket + Joni Jeans - Topshop, Striped Vest + Wedges - New Look,





So here's my first outfit post!
I received these black Topshop Joni Jeans as a birthday gift from my best friends and it's safe to say I'm loving them!
They are very flattering for the figure and are extremely comfortable as they are quite stretchy. They have also so far actually stayed skinny! Can't stand it when you buy skinny jeans and then after a day of wearing them or even a couple of hours they turn all saggy! 
I believe they were around £38?? but don't hold me to that aha which for Topshop I thought wasn't too bad!

Anyway, this was just a quick outfit post to get things started but I want to start putting some more up soon!
