Winter is Coming...





I know it wouldn't seem it, especially with this gorgeous weather we have but winter is coming which means PREPARATION. PREPARATION. PREPARATION!!!

The first on everyones to do list should be...

1)  A GOOD WINTER COAT.

This is how far my checklist extends as I cant seem to find one anywhere. Every year it happens and I always settle for something below decent. So this year I am determined not to blow all my money on something I half like but something that will actually keep me warm AND not look like another of my mums dog walking coats...( i think the word she uses is... practical)....

So I've listed 6 different styles below whether its macs, boyfriends, peas, bikers - They are all great  bang on fashion point for the season...

I'm quite busy at the moment so will try to get as many outfit posts as I can in but in the meantime ill be doing some more winter- y hauls! Look out for it tomorrow!

Finished in Spain!

You may be wondering why the title is finished. If your thinking finishing my blog then I'm not don't worry - I am just finally finished with the Spanish outfit posts and I can get back to clothes adapted for the weather of the UK which as I write this is ultimately shit. Its raining, miserable and damp. A stereotypical English summer it seems..

So when doing this post I am so depressed!!! I remember taking these photos at 8 oclock in the evening actually dying of heat whereas now Im in trackies and a wooly cardi! FMLLLLLLLLL

In regard to this outfit, I've worn this skirt to death but I'm in love with everything about it including the colour the length and the pleats. You can make it edgy by adding some studs and a bandeau to create a girly rock look or you can make it sweet and feminine by adding sparkles and a short jacket. This look is quite simple in the way its relaxed and breezy yet still acts as a small statement with the large belt piecing the top and skirt together. 

Hope you Enjoy the photos!

Beach at Night


Hey everyone!

So after finding out I'll be starting Uni in 3 weeks (soo soon) I have a LOT to do but that doesnt mean I will be neglecting my blog- so I can still keep in touch with everyone! This month is such a busy time for everyone as so many people are preparing for going to uni, setting off for a gap year and going back to school! However at the same time its so exciting!!!! I am petrified though of having to start all over again by making friends but I think 2 weeks of freshers will make  up for that....haha

IN RELATION TO FASHION. I wore this beaaaaaut maxi dress my mum bought for me from Topshop to a dinner on the beach. It was such a nice evening and really showed my tan off aswell. I love maxi dresses as they can be worn on their own and thats just so easy. Plus they are so much fun to accessorize. I wore mine with this 3 way headband to give it a glorified look and I loved it...God Bless Claires and all their nifty pieces! So I hope you enjoy the photos!!

Colourless Summer



Who says you cant wear black and white in summer? Everyone LOVED the monochrome Spring 13' trend so why cant it continue into Summer and rock the boat of steryotype-ism. I love this dress and saw it on Missguided and found myself at the checkout of Paypal in seconds. Its really fun and adds everything to the sports luxe trend thats also a real fashion statement right now.

I even teamed it up with a chain for a bit of 'bad gal riri' style and a snapback to finish the look. The shoes however could have been converses or vans but the weather in Spain (when I took these) was far too sweaty for that! Sorrryyyyy, your probably getting bored of them by now. My nan wont let me wear them as she thinks they are too 'foreign' looking...where Im not quite getting how she came to that conclusion haha.

Sorry the posts have been a little irregular. Ive just found out that....I GOT INTO UNI!! So as from September I will be a LEES FRESHER. Im so excited but Im freaking out as in I cant believe how nervous I am at the same time! I dont feel that I look or act old enough to be in Uni!! EEEEEEEEEE!!!

p.s. I'm loving all the support the blog is getting ! Keep it up to see more posts from yours truly!

@ Love Sax


Hola!

Right now as I write this I'm in mega depression from Marbella Blues. I just miss it so much!! Even when I'm writing these posts which makes me all overly excited to show you just small snippets -it saddens me (cue violins)! I just wish I could be back so much but hey ho L.I.F.E . G.O.E.S .O.N.

This is  a quick post I did before going for a cute dinner in Marbella old town.

I love wearing hats with outfits you wouldnt expect as its such a breath of fresh air and adds an ''edge''. Pluuuus, these wedges are my absolute babies! I try and wear them as much as I can so sorry if you can see a few marks emerging, though I have to admit they are not the comfiest - so a sitting down candlelit dinner in these was perrrrfect! I've even added a small photo of the real thing haha!

Enjoy the photos and see if you can spot my cornrose! (My friend always does it for me when I ask and so I thought I'd get some semi permanent by a professional on the beach and they looked siiiiiiick. It was like living my alias/ double life!)

Hope you guys like the outfit collaboration! Sorry I'm not wearing the hat at the dinner, my boyfriend depserately needed it to cover his over grown jedward huuuuuuuuur!

P.S. I KNOW dypdye/assymetric is so last A/W but I love this dress I feel like such a mermaid and its longer than usual at the back for clothes of its style. This is a really special dress and always a headturner. Plus the print on it is something else.

TINNED BANANAS


So, I'm back from my holiday!! I had such an amazing time it was the best week away I've ever had, I saw so many cool things and visited some awesome places. It was just the perfect mix of chilled and fun, not to mention so lovely to spend quality time with my boyfriend...x

In this post, I am wearing a dress by my new found favorite website 'Tinned Bananas'. If you have not been on there yet I suggest you do! The clothes are actually sick, I havent seen any website do something in their style quite like their clothes are. I started off by ordering one item which is a dress I immediately had to have for my holzzz to test out quality and whether it was true to size and all that jazz.. and the final result couldn't have been better. When the dress arrived I even got a personalized note! So sweet! This really showed me it was a small fun brand with a big idea and exciting concept with its branding/packaging/logo looking to move up and it definitely will PLUS all the clothes are born and bred in the UK!
'Tinned Bananas' ethos stands as - '' set yourself free and express your true personality ''. I think that is so beautiful and adapts to everyone via the world of fashion. Obviously, I could ramble on about everyone's style and personality creating  a nice melange together but that would take way too long and I really need to unpack.

So guys, really get on the website NOOOW, they are doing some really cheap sales and I'm finding it so hard as I already want everything!

This dress really caught my attention as I love mesh type tops and tees. I needed a stylish dress for the beach and it was perfect to throw over a bikini you want to show off without being too self concious. Another aspect I love is the deep V back, it adds a  bit of something something to the dress - and me having absolutely no boobs - loves a good backless dress ;). At first I thought the black one was most practical but then I gave second thoughts and I realized its Summer. Anyway, have a look at the photos and tell me what you think - I even added a personal one of me at Nikki Beach in Marbella to show you how it looked without a camera.

Thank you TINNED BANANAS! I LOVE you and your clothes!!!!!!

Dungarees since '94

I know I said I had loads of outfit posts to show you when I went on holiday which is Thursday (fyi) but I don't think I could wait that long before squeeeezing an extra outfit in and writing as I find it so therapeutic.

The problem is..I had no-one to take the pictures so I had to resort to asking my Mum. It didn't go very well but at least she got a few photos of the outfits. So please don't be alarmed for future photos to come as they will be of a much better standard and varied backgrounds in Spain!!!

The weather here since being back has been a bit iffy to say the least - standard U.K. bi-polar as ever. To be honest I pray for it to be sunny as thats mainly where all my outfit ideas spring from so when quickly taking these photos I was lucky that the weather was on my side. 

I love dungarees and have been wearing them ever since I was 14 before the big trend came in last year. These are my first and favorite pair so that's why they may look a tad on the small side, they are really great because of the style on the front and back - so you can really mix it up with the straps and it will alsways look different from the back as it isnt the same design of one block of material. Not to mention they are perfect for the festival season and also cute on dates etc.

The best thing about dungarees is how many different ways you can wear them, one of my favorite bloggers Kavita from ''Shewearsfashion'' did a really informative article on its varied approaches that shows they dont look the same every time. Moreover, for another seasonal look you could wear a high neck long sleeved top for an A/W take. I will definately attempt to do this when the temperature starts to drop. 

Originally I was going to wear the dungarees with another ruck sack (smaller leather tassled) and high top converse in black but I thought this look was so much more summery and fresh - teamed with the larger style aztec rucksack and opened toe smaller flatforms. Dungarees are my all time essential for traveling and not only festivals. I love wearing them in airports and walking around hotter countries giving an already retro feel with these 90's take sunglasses - which may look a bit wonky considering the amount of times I've sat on them.

Once again, sorry about the poor quality/backround these were really quick and rushed and I just wanted to show off my tan and communicate with you guys  once more before I go away !

Hope you like the outfit,

IVE MISSED YOU!

Hey Guyssssss! 

Woww, blogging feels so weird after my holiday. I feel like I've forgotten everything! I'm sorry I've not been frequent with posts as I've been away with my girlfriends in Greece and after that my trip was extended for another couple of days to Portugal by my mum! I feel so lucky and it was a nice recovery time too (fully needed). I had such an amazing time away and although I was sad to miss the remainder of the English heatwave, holidays always remind me to broaden my horizons. Im a fanatic about traveling, like literally obsessed. I will go absolutely anywhere as I love discovering new places and trying new things, especially food (different cuisines are for sure my thing). Everytime I go away I always want to run away or start a new life in that country and if anyone knows me they will know how much I hate the UK at times. Seriously, I cant wait to explore and live in a different destination and if I could do it now I would...just counting the days!
 BUT .. before that I have to tell you that I'm going away for another relaxation/party time with my boyfriend next week to Marbella where this time I will be taking my camera and a fully packed suitcase...15kg limit  to Greece was ridiculous! 
I cannot tell you how excited I am to take beautiful clothes and dress up everyday and night, its going to be such a relief! Ahhhhhhh!! I cant wait to show everyone and anyone whos a frequent reader of my blog the new outfits and of course my tan which can not be seen in these photos as they were taken before I went away. I'm hoping It wont all peel before next week as im starting to become like some sort of creep snake.

So much is happening with my life right now and Im nervous and excited to see what will happen!!!

So this post is just a casual quick one, some may have seen it on my lookbook - Here. My style is all about being comfortable and this girly yet tomboy-esque appearance was a great way to go.

I look way too happy and smiley in these photos as I took them with one of my best friends. 

My favourite things about this outfit would have to be the nike air max's (obsessed) they make the most simple outfits so much cooler so they are one of the easiest things to wear.

I also really love the waistcoat with its metallic collar it definately makes an outfit stand out ten times more.

Also styling...

Shoes - Nike Air Max
Leather Skirt - Ebay
Pink High Neck Crop Top (patterned) - River Island
Metallic White Leather Sleeveless Jacket - Wasteland
'Coco Made Me Do it' - Beanie - Ebay


Keep on look for new posts before I go away ! There might be the odd few!

Topshop Addict

I know everyone reading this loves Topshop. Even though its one of the biggest chains I find that every single item of clothing is amazing and individual, the other day I was in Westfield and I went a bit overboard...(understatement). Im really loving loads of ''tea dresses'' they are doing right now, kind of 50's-esque. 

Not ''tee - dresses'' like t shirt but tea as in frilly cute pinafore shaped dresses. They are very cute and stylish and not to mention great for any occasion. The one Im wearing below is made of a beautiful lace in a really flattering shape that really enhances your figure. My favourite thing about it though is the colour! In Acid Green it adds a modern twist and you can really manipulate this outfit to however you want. I know this outfit has been featured on lookbook before but I wore it yesterday with cat eye sunglasses and black suede slipper shoes. Its so cute and effortless!!! 

Also comes in a playsuit version so have a look and enjoy the photos! 

Styling... Topshop Head to toe! Please continue to remember my blog as Im away , as Ive said, many more photos and outfits are to be posted when Im back!
