A/W Wishlist. | November 15 |


I could honestly say that 2015 has been my favourite year yet for trends. The summer 1970's trend absolutely killed it. So much suede and floaty chiffon, All of the things I have loved since falling for vintage Fashion at the age of 14. 

Spring transitioned to summer, bringing Flares and Micro mini skirts.. then Autumn crept in and brought Ankle boots, Knee boots & 1960's gogo fashion. Team a mini dress with ankle boots and a winter coat? TRANSITIONAL PERFECTION. YES YES YES. 

Here's a few favourites that I WISH I could afford right now...but since my last blogpost, you can imagine I can barely afford a Freddo.

A GIRL CAN DREAM :



PETITE Poppy Print Dress
£48.00
Topshop

I love a little bit of floral for the winter. This dress is slightly peasant style with the long sleeves and frills but the colours are autumnal and very pretty. Tights + Wooly Scarf + Boots = Perfection.


PETITE Textured Bell Sleeve Dress
£42.00
Topshop

This is just a simple Little Blue dress. I love love love it. Need I say more?


Juni Coat
£65
Monki

I've been looking for another long-line winter jacket. Something keeps pulling me into the idea of a trench coat. This cream/off white number is so gloriously chic.



Sleeveless Utility Denim Dress
£20.00
Miss Selfridge

Can we just? I am so in love with all the Denim dresses I've been seeing this year!


Marc B Bella Across Body Bag
£35.00
ASOS

The perfect little bag for every outing! Granted if I had a really good rummage I could probably find a retro lookalike in a charity shop, but for now we have this as GOALS.


Lace Up High Heel Shoes
£29.99
ZARA

Out of all of the suede shoes I've seen this year these have by far won my heart. I would beg, borrow and steal to have them on my feet immediately. I may have to to seek some babysitting work....

So that's just a few things, I could sit here for hours showing you what I love! Hope all is well for you all.

TOPSHOP DENIM STAPLES | SEPTEMBER 15


I can't be the only one who is totally taken by all of the awesome denim Topshop have in there stores at the moment.
I could cry because I can't buy them all... but I can pick my favourites and show you them!

MOTO Denim Western Dress
£42
This, by far is my absolute fave. Every time I go to Topshop I just stand a whimper over it because £42? *cri evri tym* BUT SO PERFECT. MUCH DENIM. WOW.

MOTO Bright Blue Button Front A-Line Skirt
£28
Ahhh, the button down. Seen on.. Everyone this summer? But seriously, It doesn't get better than this! Those Penny Lane vibes!


Petite Slim Dungarees
£48
Gosh I want some black dungarees so bad. They're so sweet and practical, perfect for University or college! Maybe one day I'll cave and get a pair.

MOTO Fitted Western Shirt
£29
Denim shirts are legit awesome, I often question why I don't actually have one myself? Am I mad? But they're great for when you don't feel like wearing a denim jacket but you still want a little suttin' suttin' to keep you warm.


There's my picks! Hey, maybe I'm getting the hang of this blog post lark again?

1970's Influences Primark Haul | May '15 |

Hey loves!

A few bits from Primark for you all today! I've been eyeing up some SS15 Pieces that all have a really 1970's Vibe! 

I don't often shop big at Primark anymore, I have the joy of being employed by them & It feels like handing your wages back! Which anyone in Fashion Retail can relate to, am I rigggghttttt?

Yesterday I felt like treating myself however because I had experienced the rarity of not only a non-busy Stratford Primark BUT I also found my size (6) in EVERYTHING. MA GAWD.


Shirred Crop Top
£3.90
Primark

This cute little thing is originally £5, for some reason It was extra cheap in Stratford so I couldn't say no!
There was one left in my size also, So I grabbed it haha.

This is such a cute piece for the summer & will literally go with EVERYTHING.


Sports Stripe Hotpants
£3
Primark

I love these! They're wicked 1970's and have an American vibe! You can just see Farrah Fawcett or Goldie Hawn wearing these!


Button Down Mini Skirt
£10
Primark

IM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS. Ever since It came in with the new season I'd Wayne Campbell it with the 'It will be mine,oh yes,It will be mine.'
And now it is! Also, weirdly this went through at £3? Did somebody mess up? haha (I won't tell if you don't!)




Foundation Stick
£2.00
Primark

I also got another one of these foundation sticks. Similar to the Kryolan TV Makeup sticks, They're banging for doing a bit of cream contour Drag queen style!
I already have the medium one for contour & now I have this one for highlighting! Also an excellent match for my pale skin too,It's so hard for me to find things that are actually pale!


That's all for today, What's your favourite Primark purchase most recently?

OOTD | Welcome to SHOREBITCH


Before I begin this OOTD I'd like to say i'm 100% joking with the Title & Title Picture. hahaha

I met my girl Alana in Shoreditch for Cocktail hour yesterday & we passed this awesome wall so I couldn't pass up the opportunity to be like a real blogger with an interesting OOTD background lool.


I kept It simple but cute because ALAS we were not out-out.

I'm wearing my Sisters 2004 915 New Look Jean Jacket (who knew she was such a fashionable 14 year old?) with a Floral Kimono Shirt underneath for a bit of snazz (£1.50 from Sue Ryder).
I opted for Skinny Jeans which are from Primark, These are my go to High Waisted Jeans and I'm on pair number 2! 


SOMEBODY CALL VOGUE.


The usual suspects here Accessory-wise, Black sunnies from Primark (£1) & My Trusty Topshop Satchel!
Simple flat shoes Complete the 'look' which funny story I wore to be comfortable & ended up with a cork board push pin through my shoe and in my foot! OUCH.

Here's some Pictures of the Cocktails at Chico Bandito. It was Happy Hour and Cocktails were £3.50 & Ofc it being a Mexican place we had to have nachos! MUCH RECOMMEND!


<3


I'm Carrie Bradshaw at LAST! Cosmopolitan.


Seeing the Nachos again is making me hungry... they were Spicy Beef Nachos too...mmmmm


This was a peach something or something... IDK it's Alcoholic and I LOVED IT.

❤ OOTD : Waterloo Sunset ❤

Hello!

Here's an outfit I wore out shopping with my Paps on Friday, It was so warm and I braved bare legs! 


I recently purchased my first Polo Neck top from Hidden Fashion for £5, I wouldn't normally spend so much on a plain top before but often their website sells out quickly & I wanted it! 



I wore my Polo Neck with this Swoon dress that I made last year! It's just a basic shift dress but it's so cute & probably one of y favourite things I've sewn!
The Top goes really nicely underneath & I felt super 60's.


I took my Kylijane Fluffy bag with me which doesn't often leave my side, This outfit needed some fluff! I love it loads it's so cute!

Also check out my epic hair flick!



I put on my ASOS Dolly Shoes with this because CUTE & My H&M Beige Blazer because although it was sunny there was a chilly wind! My bum was reeeeet cold! lol :-)


Hope you love this outfit as much as me!
