Kimono it casual


               Kimono - River Island
           Black crop top - River Island
         Denim cut offs - The people vs
                         Bag - eBay
                   Sandals - primark
                 Sunglasses - RayBan





When England was blessed with warm and sunny weather a couple of weeks back, I managed to bring my 'the people vs' denim cut offs out to play. 
I picked them up whilst in bali, they are a cool surf/skate inspired australian brand with some really unique pieces. 
What drew me to the shorts were the distressed look and the fact that they aren't so short that half of your bum cheeks are on show, like most of the denim shorts you find over here. 
They've also gotten lots of compliments, as has this beautiful kimono from river island.
The detail is beautiful and these pictures do not pick up just how beautiful the detailing actually is. 
I'm definitely going through a kimono phase right now, what are you drawn to at the moment? 



I'm also making a thing of getting my nails done at the moment, which really isn't like me at all but I'm kind of loving it!

Love love xx

One dress, two ways




Hi, I am a little obsessed with Missguided at the moment and also a little obsessed with this dress! 

First of all it's velvet... Say no more! 
Secondly I love how versatile and easy to wear it is. In the pictures above I've styled it very casual with over the knee socks (you could also double layer and add tights under the socks) and a thick coat and scarf. 

I feel it's a casual look whilst also making a bit of a statement with it being velvet and electric blue. 





Whilst this dress looks cute as a casual outfit, it also looks pretty damn cute for a night out! 

I've teamed it with my trusty river island boots and a slick of MAC 'up the amp' lipstick. 

This lipstick is another obsession of mine at the moment and I love the slightly clashing contrast of the colour of the lipstick and the blue of the dress.


What have you been obsessing over recently?

tartan dreams






So here is a quick little outfit of the day of some clothing that I've recently picked up. Tartan is everywhere at the moment, who doesn't love it?! 

I thought instead of going for the traditional red or green print, I would mix it up and go with grey. I know I will find a lot more clothes to wear with these as I can mix them with colour as well as black, white or grey, which is probably a bit harder with red or green tartan.

I'm thinking a beautiful cropped, pastel, fluffy sweater would look cute, so if any of you know where I can find one please let me know.  I'm so happy with them and they are hella comfy!




I'm still obsessed with my river island boots and even though its cold now I just layer them with thick socks, which makes it super acceptable apart from when its raining. Wet feet... never a good thing!

As soon as I saw this necklace I knew I had to have it! I love the fact that it looks like it could have been picked up from a street market in Morocco. Unfortunately this is not the case!
Lately I've been swaying more towards silver jewelry, which is very unusual for me as i am normally a devoted gold wearer but i think i may have been turned! 

Hope you like the outfit!
