OOTD - Zara Low Back T-shirt

Hello PPB's :)

Who's as happy as me that the sun is back out! :)? I have been wanting to do another OOTD for ages but i have only just got around to taking pictures!

The T-shirt I love is from Zara and was £9.99 and Shorts are from New Look a few years ago, they were a gift so I'm not sure how much they were. I just wore this to pop to the shops to pick up a few essentials.

I am aware I look dead in most of the pictures, but the sun washed me out so bad! I am pale but not this pale haha!!

I hope you like it!

I have all my normal jewellery on and my New Look sandals.

Lots of Love

Is Tartan the new Black?

Hello PPB's :)

I have started seeing Tartan EVERYWHERE online and in stores as the new A/W collections start coming in. I have never worn any form of Tartan ever and to be quiet honest its always been a pattern I have avoided, but as its meant to be 'the' pattern for this A/W I really want to bring some into my wardrobe but in a subtle way that wont be too in your face or scary! I hope this helps all of your who feel the same as me as well! :)

This is from Zara (obviously) and is £19.99 I think this would look lovely with just a simple pair of jeans! and I love the little collar so cute! Also the back of this top is plain black so the pattern isn't on overload if your abit nervous like me!

This is also from Zara and is £29.99, how cute is the peter pan collar! adorable and you all know how much I love shift dresses atm!! Like the top above the back of this is plain black!

I am so in love with this shirt! Its from Mango and is £39.99 I love the contrast between the Tartan pattern and the floral shoulders! I would love to wear this tucked into a black skater skirt! :)

I like the yellow in this coat! Normally when you think of tartan you think red (well I do anyway) I think the yellow in this coat makes it abit more subtle. It would so really well over pretty much anything! Its from Zara and is £89.99

Now if your really to afraid of big Tartan prints why not just accessories with it.

Will you be wearing Tartan this winter? I hope this has helped all of you who are tartan newbies like me! :)

If you've already got tartan pieces let me know! :)

Did you see my new header? What do you think? :) and why not grab my button! :)

OOTD - Childhood and Daisys

Hello PPB's :)

I've got another outfit post for you! :) I really enjoy these posts! :)

My dress is from New Look a couple of years ago, but I love it! I feel like a doll when I wear it and so girly, I told myself this summer I was going to wear mostly dresses and skirts and so far I've stuck to it.

This dress definitely doesn't need any statement jewellery so I just wore but Links of London everyday bracelets and my Grandads coin necklace and Grandma's rings.

My little headband is from when I was little! Yes I have pea sized head, it still fits me at 21 years old! haha but it just goes so well with the dress. I know I look so young in this outfit but I just adore it! :)

I wore this outfit to go shopping with my mum! :) I will be showing you all what I got in other outfit posts! :)

My roots are so bad in these pictures! But fear not a hair appointment is booked for Saturday! haha, I'm sure I'm alone with how excited I get about getting my hair done!

I hope you like it! :)

Lots of Love

OOTD - Zara | Topshop | Jasper Conran

Happy Friday lovelies!

Warning this post is very photo based

Me and the boyfriend popped into Ely today which is a really cute and pretty city. Its only a city because it has a cathedral, otherwise I would call it a little riverside town. :) anyway we took a walk down by the river.

So this post is about my outfit haha! :)

The jacket is from Zara! I love it! The detailing on the top is so pretty, its all individual beading! I picked it up online in the sale for £25, I saw it and had to get it! I have basically lived in it every since.

The dress is the Topshop midi dress from my recent haul post, its so easy to wear, I'm thinking of doing a 'How I style a midi dress' post...What do you think?

My bag and shoes are also from my recent haul post :) The glasses is the photos above are my matalan ones from the last OOTD, the ones in the photos below are from River Island, I got them about 2 years ago and still love them just as much!

I really do like this outfit and I hope you do too! :)

My jewellery is from Links of London (XS Sweetie blt, Sweetie Bangle with mini heart charm and silver Entwine ring) Pandora (White leather blt, Tea cup and butterfly charms). The 2 gold rings are my Grandma's the plain band was her wedding ring and the other has always been my favourite ring of hers and she gave it to me a few years ago its got Garnets in it! The necklace I'm wearing is a Half Crown 1916 coin that my Grandad made into a necklace himself for my mum , she has now given it to me and I love it, I like to wear it because it reminds me of him and I like to keep him with me! I couldn't get a good picture outside so I took some inside.

I hope you like the outfit! :)

So I went shopping...

I know its not Friday :( oops, sorry its late guys but didn't get chance to write a post till now. But at least its something I know a lot of you love and that's a haul! :)

So as the title says, I went shopping and I picked up a few things :) so I thought I would show you what I got.

The first dress is from Topshop, its just a plain midi dress, but I picked it up for work, I'm going to wear it as a base and put tops over it, its was £25

The Shoes are from New Look and pretty much explain themselves just simple brown sandals perfect for this weekends weather! :) They where £12.99 but got to love the New Look card, don't have to pay till next month for them! :)

The second Dress is from Dorothy Perkins, again for work, but I just thought it was so cute with the little bow and it fits so well! Also it was only £16!

My Favourite purchase is obviously the bag, I think I have a problem!! Its a Jasper Conran bag From Debenhams, I have been looking for a smaller bag for a while, all the ones I have are massive handbags, or suitcases as my family like to call them! I was looking for one with a long strap so I could wear it cross body, but then I was thinking and I never use the cross body straps that come with any of my bags so why not just get the one I love! :)

I'm in love! :) it should have cost £35 but it had 20% off so cost £28.

Lastly, My mum was nice enough to get me this dress, its also from Dorothy Perkins and I wasn't going to get it but it fit so well and was in the sale for £20 from £40.

The pattern is so cute with the birds and its so light to wear! :) Its going to be perfect for during the day and weddings and so on! so versatile!

If you want me to do any OOTD's with anything let me know if the comments! :)

I hope your all enjoying the sunny weather! Pretty please don't forget to follow with bloglovin! :) also why not like my FB page and follow on instagram :)

Lots of Love
