Valentines Day: High Street Favourites #10

Is it just me that has to pick their jaw up off the floor after realizing that January is coming to an end? How is it February already? I'm pretty sure it was like a week ago that everybody was celebrating New Year and starting that 'new year, new me' malarky. To kick off this month I thought I'd put together a little collection of my favourite valentines day pieces that i've seen online and on the high street. These aren't necessarily matching just a few little things that have caught my eye!

White Strappy Court Shoes - River Island
Camel A-Line Mini Skirt - New Look

If you're going on a swanky valentines date I hope this has given you some inspiration for a outfit!

Back to December: High Street Favourites #9

Good morning! 
I've been in such a good mood recently and I can't think of a reason why, but all I know is I hope I can stay like this during the next few weeks! I think it could be me getting into the festive spirit, I started my Christmas shopping and the thought of buying presents for other people and the look on their face when they open them has got to be one of my favourite parts of Christmas! Everything is starting to come together and I know that as soon as Christmas is over, it'll be the New Year and the thought of the unknown makes me extremely excited, these past 12 months have been some of the most exciting, upsetting, craziest times of my life and even though a lot has changed next year will bring me new and more exciting things! So a lot to look forward to.. roll on 2015!!

I haven't done a high street favourites post in a few weeks but I'm back now and I have a bajillion ideas running through my head for new blog posts and oohhh it's just very very titillating!

But for those of you that have just got their loans, don't buy books.. buy clothes haha! Do it for the people like me that have to slave away for £5 something an hour (I weep)

Grey Crop Top - Topshop

My Autumn Staples 2014

Hello again beautifuls!
Wellllll guess who's back! This time with my autumn staples for this year. This post was inspired by a recent shopping spree (oopsy) when I went it into Liverpool City Centre with my cousin. I may of slightly ventured into the shops on Church Street and picked up a few things for my a/w wardrobe! eeeepp

My first staple is definitely polar necks. Now, I don't mean the polar necks that are wrinkled around your neck and come up to your chin. I bought this gorgeous ribbed striped top from Forever 21 for a wonder £10.50 & I absolutely love it! It's slightly cropped so I've decided on wearing it like the model >> with some high waist black jeans or maybe a black skater skirt, black tights and a pair of ballet pumps. I think this style of top is going to be huge this season, I mean you can never have enough stripey tops and polar necks in your life can you!? 
If you want this for your a/w wardrobe, get it - Here.

My next staple has got to be a good old sturdy pair of boots! I've been searching the high street for a proper pair that won't break the second I step out the door and also ones that will go with practically everything! I come across these little beauties from New Look, sadly I haven't bought them yet but come my next pay day they'll be mine *cue the evil laugh* 
Now they are plain, but I can definitely see them bringing an outfit together! If you fancy buying them for a delightful £29.99, get them - Here!

Well you're going to need a new bag for the new season, it's only right! I find myself around autumn/winter looking at over-sized slouchy bags to go with my baggy top, skinny jeans and my 'I don't care, I'm cosey' type of look. It's hard to find a bag that you won't get annoyed carrying round which is the case with most bags :( 
Which is why I'm still searching for the perfect one. Don't you worry though, oh no! I've got my eye on what I think is a perfect bag for autumn/winter and that is this b-e-a-utiful tan bag courtesy of River Island! The best thing is, it's only £32, and for me.. that's a bargain! If you're searching for a new bag and want this one, get it - Here!

If you don't own a baggy jumper to help you through the cold months then you're doing this whole thing wrong! Now it is hard to find one that won't irritate you and make you want to pull your birthday suit off which is why I always go for a ribbed knitted jumper that won't make me itch! I've been looking at this one for a few days now and decided that it's definitely one for my winter wardrobe. The color is on point and it would go so effortlessly with a pair of black skinny jeans and those black boots! 
(You'll start to see a theme in my posts that through winter I loves me my black skinnies!)
Where else are you going to find a good quality jumper that won't cost you an arm and a leg, why.. none other than Topshop! Get this jumper Here for £38 :)

Last but not certainly not least, probably my favorite part of an autumn outfit.. a good old dark lipstick to tie it all together! I've currently been loving 'Twig' by MAC (I wrote a review here if you'd like to have a nose) but it's not dark enough for my liking! Last year my favorite lipstick for this season was probably 'The Damned' or 'Inhibition' by Topshop so if I fail to find one that matches those, they'll be getting re-purchased for this year! Now normally I don't really suit berry type of colors and red-ish tones but I'm trying my hardest to step out of my comfort zone but it's definitely proving more difficult than I thought! My mum always says.. 'stick to what you know'.

Let me know your autumn/winter staples below!

Apologies for the lack of posts but I have been a tad busy! 
Sadly, I left my work *sad face* but this means on wards and upwards.. and I really can't wait. Anyway, onto the 6th installment (I think 6th) of my high street favorites yaaaay!
Now that I have a whole week off I'm planning on spending the majority of that spooning my quilt with some sweets, a laptop, a unhealthy amount of Chuck Bass and a million online shopping baskets full of new clothes - I literally couldn't be in a happier place! 


Leather Bag - ASOS
Tartan Scarf - River Island
Orange Wrap Crop Top - New Look
Ripped Jamie Jeans - Topshop
Floral Purse - River Island
Yellow Clutch - Vintage Styler
Pink Stone Earrings - Topshop
Mint and Cream Earrings - Vintage Styler

I definitely think accessories are going to be the biggest part of a Autumn/Winter outfit this year, especially earrings like these and bright clutches like this gorgeous one from Lydia Bright's collection!

REVIEW:: Cara at Topshop!

I need to get this out..
EEEEP!!
okay.
So if like me you absolutely adore the beautiful Cara Delevingne you would've seen that she is now the new face for Topshop which I couldn't be more excited about, not because whenever I go into town now she will be plastered all over the windows of Topshop but because her style is definitely one of my favourites and it's forever changing which is why I think she's such a good person for this role. This collection features so many different types of clothes such as girly blouses and dresses to biker jackets and knee high leather boots! Her style changes all the time but keeps getting better and better. She makes a simple outfit look flawless and when she's got her gladrags on, girlllll she is smashing it! & don't even start me on those Victoria's Secret shows! (I could go on forever, no lie.)

Had to throw that little photo in!

Anyway! I thought I'd do a little post on my favourite pieces from the collection. Don't get me wrong some of these items are a little pricey and sadly I don't think they'll be making it into my wardrobe anytime soon but I can always dream, can't I?

So first, I fell in love with this adorable little blouse. When I first saw it I thought it'd not very 'Cara' until I saw the photo of her modelling it and she looks stunning in it (even though she is lying ridiculously awkward haha!) I love the double peter pan collar and the tightness around the wrists, like Cara on the photo I'd definitely pair this with a pair of high waisted leggings or jeans and some snazzy little heels or boots.

The second piece, it's safe to say I am IN LOVE. Like there's "oh I like that dress" and then there's "LOOK. AT. THAT. DRESS." that was one of them moments! It makes me sad to think that I can't afford to buy this dress or even justify paying that much money for something, even though it is ridiculously beautiful!

The embellishment is just so perfect and I love the tassles at the bottom of the dress, I think I just want this because Cara looks so good in it! If you're lucky enough to afford this, here's the link!

I thought I'd have a little geg at the shoes, and I'm not going to lie I wasn't too impressed *sad face* apart from this one pair & yet again, they're a little bit over my budget :( (silly topshop) but moving on.. they're still beautiful and definitely perfect for Winter! Especially if it plans on snowing again.
Get them for yourself Here!

And Last but not least, we all know Topshop are famous for a good old fashioned pair of jeans and this collection is no exception! I love the design of these, with the whole zip detail going on at the top and also, they're in a good price range! (FINALLY!!) I think £40 isn't too bad, that's along the lines of some of their other jean prices.
And, as you can see.. these go so well with the blouse I wrote about before!

Let me know what your favourite pieces are from this collection!

BACK TO SCHOOL! High Street Favorites #5

Welcome back!

Can I just say, It's fricking September? W H A T How is that even possible??
I would do anything to be able to say "I go back to school this week", trust me.. growing up isn't all that fun! Instead it's all "urgh I'm in work this week".
So seeing as some of you lucky people are going back this week I thought I'd put together my school essentials for those of you starting college or sixth form, just because most of them allow you to wear your own clothes! Just a quick reminder as well, don't over-do it on the whole 'IM FINALLY ALLOWED TO WEAR MAKEUP TO SCHOOL' thing because trust me, you'll be bored after about 2 days when you're having to wake up like 30/40 minutes earlier just to make yourself look presentable, me personally.. I'd rather spend those precious minutes in bed!


High Waisted Jeans - Miss Guided
Black Boots - River Island
Green Tote Bag - New Look
Black Raglan Top - Topshop
White Slogan Jumper - River Island
Khaki Parker - New Look
Skater Shoes - BooHoo
Black Running Trainers - River Island

Hope you've enjoyed this post and remember school isn't the worst thing in the world haha! Let me know what you're planning on wearing for your return to college or sixth form.

Autumn is like the Sunday of Summer: High Street Favorites #4

Back again with my 4th installment of the 'High Street Favorites' and I think this one is probably my favorite.. if that makes sense, I know they're all favorites but this one is at the top for me at the moment! I adore everything on it. I chose all quite minimalist colors for this just because I love my Autumn wardrobe to be quite subtle and not really bright and in your face, that's what Summer's for I think! I'm definitely hoping to get most of these things just because every single one of them suits my style so well!

Leather Jacket - Topshop
Mini Messenger Bag - ZARA
Leather Ankle Boots - ASOS
Plaid Shirt - New Look
Smock Dress - MissGuided
Black Mini Skirt - River Island
Rhinestone Necklace - ZARA

I think I've possibly fell in love with everything on this post, especially that leather jacket, round of applause for Topshop! *clapping hands emoji*
Let me know if any of these tickle your fancy!

A/W Wishlist

Its makes me sad to say but summer's nearly over *queue the tears*
BUT. That can only mean one thing.. Autumn & Winter and NEW CLOTHES!
(I just had to make that bigger for the emphasis!)

So I thought I'd do my first A/W Wishlist seems as all the high street companies are starting to bring their collections out, eeeeeep!! We all know what this means: over-sized coats, baggy jumpers, autumn colors and Christmas of course.
I decided to search online for a few bits and bobs that I could buy to start off my A/W wardrobe and well I wasn't disappointed. 
I found these little beauties which I'm just dying for!!
Oversized Jersey Coat - Topshop
Black Boots - ASOS
Paisley Cami Top - River Island
Floral Crop Top - Topshop
Cropped Jumper - Topshop
White Structured Coat - Zara

I tried to choose my favourite item out of all these but I just couldnt! If I had to choose 2 they'd probably be the two coats, I absolutely adore them! This post has made me so fricking excited for Winter now, it's my favourite time of the year and I just can't wait to sit in my house with a cuppa or hot chocolate watching Home Alone aaarrggghhh!

Thanks for reading,

Bye now! xxx

OOTD: 20th Birthday!!

Soooo here's my birthday outfit(s) of the day!
Last week I done a post on my birthday wishlist featuring all clothes from Missguided (if you scroll down you'll be able to find it!) and I couldn't decide whether or not to go dressy or casual and seeing as I had 2 birthday nights out I thought I'd go casual 1 night and dressy the other.. 

So on my actual birthday I wore this yellow cami top which I bought from Bershka, unfortunately it was a store in Fuerteventura so I'm unsure whether or not they sell it here in the UK! along with some black skinny jeans from Primark and a pair of boot heels which I bought from a online seller! I loved this outfit because it was just so casual and laid back but also dressy at the same time. 

On the Saturday I went out for a meal with a few of my other friends and then into town, safe to say.. I had a ball! Like a lot of other girls I'm so un-organised when it comes to what I'm going to wear, so here's me running through town trying to find an outfit at half 5 in the evening.. baring in mind, I was supposed to be meeting them at 8! (oops)
In the end I bought this gorgeous jacket from Forever 21. I'm not normally one for white clothing but I've been dying for a blazer/jacket for so long and at £18 I couldn't pass on the opportunity! Sadly, I looked online for it but they only had it in red, so if you're a red sort of person here's the link!

After buying that I thought what am I supposed to wear this with, I'm awful at styling things with jackets!! After hours of looking I couldn't find a thing (which I was so disappointed with!). Usually there's always going to be something that catches your eye, but not this time :( 
I was in dyer need of some new heels so I thought why not some white ones to match my white jacket! It's safe to say I was a GIANT. If I stood next to my mum and dad they practically needed binoculars to look up at me, they were huge. I'll give it to the shoes, they didn't start to hurt my feet until the end of the night which was a bonus! I absolutely adore chunky heels like these because they're just so easy to wear either casually and dressy & they were only £25 which was a bargain *dancing emoji!*

Here's a few little photos from the night:






Jacket - Forever 21
Black Bardot Crop Top - Missguided
Shorts - Primark
Heels - Daisy Street
Yellow Satchel - Primark

I hope you've enjoyed reading this post, I had such an amazing few days thanks to my friends and family!

Birthday Wishlist: Miss Guided!

Hellooooo

Seeing as i'm turning 20 on Wednesday I thought I'd do a little post on a few different outfits I've been debating for my birthday and because I've been loving (stalking) miss guided's website recently I thought I'd put together a few little outfits I found on there that I could wear throughout the day as well as the night time!

My first one was this adorable little dress, I saw it and well, it's hard to know what the weather's going to be like next week here in England I mean one minute it's sweltering hot and the next it's raining, what the hell!?!? I also loved the fedora hat the model's wearing on the photo, and because I do love me a good hat I thought mine and this dress would be perfect along with some little boot heels or sandals!


It's so fricking cute & If you fancy purchasing it you can get it here!

So my second look is more for the day time I think (depending on the weather), but paired with some heels I could definitely wear this for the night. The shorts are so pretty and I fell in love with the pattern as soon as I saw them and the scallop hemmed top just goes so well. I bought a black choker online recently as well so I was thinking that along with some sandals & a little pouch bag! 


To buy the shorts you can get them here and the top here!

This third one is probably my favorite outfit out of them all! Seems as I'm getting old(ish) I think this outfit is perfect, it's so vintage looking and classic with a little modern twist on it!


The colors are so summery and pastel is by far one of my favorite color trends this year! The skirt, well I fell in love as soon as I clicked onto it.. how can you not love the color and just everything about it?? I've been looking around for a statement necklace to go with this as well but so far I've had no luck :( 

You can find the skirt here, the top here and the shoes here!

Finally, my last outfit well.. I thought it's definitely a night time one. I was looking at this dress a few weeks ago for a friends birthday but couldn't make my mind up whether I liked it or not. I thought I'd probably look like something from an Austin Powers movie..


Now I know that these type of shoes aren't everybody's cup of tea but I love them, I feel like Carrie Bradshaw from Sex In The City in them & I love it!

You can find the dress here & the shoes here.

Hopefully you've enjoyed this post & by the time that it's my birthday hopefully I would've found an outfit. Keep an eye out for my birthday OOTD which I'll probably be posting on the Weekend!

Thanks for reading <3

Summer Dress Under £20!

Back again!

So seems as it's absolutely roasting these days & I wasn't prepared for this summer heat at all I went shopping and decided to look for a little summer dress that I can throw on on my days off. I searched high and low all over the high street until I come across this adorable little number in Forever 21! 


I'm in love with it!
It's so flowy and weightless and I can wear it in the day time as well as at night. The best thing about it is, it only cost me £15 which is a bargain!
If you love it as much as me you can buy it Here

Enjoy!

The Perfect Summer Kimono: New Look Edition!

Hey guys!
Just a small post from me today, I recently went on shopping trip into Liverpool city center with my friend Becca and went into New Look. Now usually I walk straight past New Look because I think of it as a hit and miss shop, meaning that the majority of the time I go in, look in one section and walk back out because I cant find anything that I like! But oh no, this time was different! I went in there just on the off chance that they may have any kimono's for me and my friend & oh boy did they deliver! They had so many in different colors and designs, some with tassels, others with long or short sleeves, they were all gorgeous & I finally decided on this monochrome aztec printed one after a good 25 minutes of debating with myself!



I absolutely love it!
It was an absolute bargain as well, costing me just £24.99 - you can buy it Here if you wish! (take a look at the others as well while you're there!)

I wore this recently on a night out with a pair of black leggings and a black cropped cami top. I don't think you need to wear a lot of patterns or bright colors when wearing a kimono like this because of the bold print!

Hope you've enjoyed this little post.

High Street Picks: Kylie Jenner


Recently I have been obsessed with Kylie Jenner, not in a creepy stalker-ish kid of way! I mean her fashion sense is so on point it's ridiculous. As well as her gorgeous sister Kendall they are both my favorite out of the Kardashian/Jenner clan!

So I thought I would search the high street and online stores for things that represent Kylie's style. From what I've gathered from her instagram photos she seems really into plaid shirts, 'boho' style clothing and stripes, and she also likes wearing a lot of black, which in my opinion really suits her!

First I found this feather fedora hat from Topshop which is £28, you can find it Here.
Kylie is such a hat person like me, she wears them in the day time to dress up a simple outfit or at night time with a leather jacket and smart suit!


So Kylie recently posted this photo on Instagram:



And as you can see if any of your follow her on instagram she loves wearing plaid shirts with a block coloured tshirt, musicians merchandise tshirts or a stripey crop top. I found a similar colored shirt from Topshop, you can find that Here

By looking at her sense of style she enjoys pairing simple outfits with bold accessories such as long coats, hats, necklaces and rings. When wearing rings she wears one on most fingers or sometimes 3/4 if she's wearing her Cartier rings. I found a few online that suit her style.



Cat Eye Stone Ring - Topshop
Round Signet Ring - Topshop
Double Triangle Midi Ring - Topshop
Turqoise Stone Ring - Topshop
Black Statement Ring - River Island
Silver Diamante Ring - New Look
Gold and Silver Ring Stack - New Look

Kylie also likes to pair crop tops with maxi skirts or high waisted jeans/shorts. I found this bralet from Zara - Here which I think suits her style perfectly! 


Especially if paired with a pair of black high waist jeans, leggins or a bodycon midi skirt. It is definitely on point with Kylies recent fashion.


So hopefully this post gave you an insight into Kylie's style! Comment below if you have any other staples you've seen her wearing recently :)

Bye for now! Xxx
