OOTD | Sundaze |

Hey guys! This weeks OOTD is coming on a Tuesday, Apologies! Ricardo took me to London yesterday and it was a lovely surprise day out!

Today It was really sunny outside so I decided to style a few Charity shop bargains I've purchased recently In a 1969/1970 Style OOTD.

I've really been getting into my Charity shopping recently with it being a new Season for Fashion Trends and all. Even my dad comes along with me now when he sees all of the bargains I'm bringing home!

I picked up this gorgeous lace shirt from St.Francis' Hospice for only £2.50 and it's so lovely! I'm wearing it unbuttoned here but buttoned up it makes a fabulous tunic style shirt, the lace is daisy shaped and very 1960s!

My Straw bag was only £1 from Sue Ryder, I found it in a big pile of bags and I have the biggest weakness for Straw bags I couldn't leave it behind.

Ok. Let's talk about my Suede Skirt. 

I actually made it! As you may or may not know I LOVE to sew and I've been testing a few patterns out for this seasons styles. I tried out a mini skirt in this Faux Suede material and ITS AWESOME.

I teamed it with this thick Black Belt from Primark, a Hand me down from my sister! I love the thick cut look it gives and It's a very 70's thing. If you're ever in doubt about the new 1970's fashion trends, Remember - Flares. Suede. Belts. Tassels. 

I'll be making some Suede Skirts as well as other Fabulous Vintage Style bits to sell for release in May so watch this space & Follow me on instagram for updates! 

My sunglasses are from Forever 21, I purchased them when I used to work there and they cost me about £6 which is the most I've ever paid for sunglasses! THE HORROR. But I love them they're very Nicole Richie - esque. 

I threw on a Black crop top from H&M (£1.99) and Black Tights and Pumps from Primark (£2.99 & £4.00).

I thought I'd include my eye make-up as it matched my Outfit haha! I had Collection's Felt Tip Black Eyeliner and a Collection Copper Glitter Eyeliner in the inner corners, TRES CHIC.

I plaited the sides of my hair and brought them together at the back, Curling the ends of my hair and pinning it.

You get a nice close up of the Lace Shirt here and it's JUST LOVELY.

That's all for today, I'd like to thank you for coping with my poor quality photos and I'm so excited to say I'll be buying a Brand new proper camera come payday! All of my Blog Posts will be HD-ified. YAY.

Whats the best charity shop purchase you've made recently! I'd really love to know so don't be shy in tweeting/commenting to tell me!

| Coral Cutie | May 2014 |

Hello! Just a quick Outfit for you!

I love this dress! My sister gave it to me as it doesn't fit her anymore. It's so cute and I wasn't sure how the coral/pink was going to look with my bright hair but it's a very sweet combination.

I paired this with an up do to show off the criss-cross back & put a leopard belt to add a pop of pattern for contrast!

I'd team this with a cream cardie and some sandals if I were leaving the house, However it's raining...ew!

OOTD : ❤ Vintage Check ❤

Just a quick OOTD before bed,this one I wore for work Last week on a very lovely warm day! 

I absolutely adore this Skirt to death! It's vintage Pimark and I nabbed it on eBay for such a bargain of 99p! It was a little long when I first bought it but I took the hem up a couple of inches and it's done the trick! 

I paired this with a cream cardie & Topshop denim Jacket to give the outfit a little lightness and plain black flats from Primark!

I've also worn a basic vest and a little black belt to keep it up around my demur frame haha...

I defo need a few cream cakes in me!

Everything seen here except the Casio watch (from Urban Outfitters) Is from Primark! x

All in all a slightly spring outfit! LOVE!

Collective Haul | April 2014 |

Good hello! I've been away with no excuses as to where...*shifty eyes* BUT I have some lovely items of clothing that I have accumulated over the few weeks!

So without further adieu, here's what I have bought!

Navy & White Polka dot Skirt

£5.99

H&M

I LOVE THIS! So sweet and feminine! and only £6? LOVE!

Red Gingham Halterneck Dress

£3.99

eBay (Originally H&M)

So sweet! I feel that sweet is about to become a very common theme here......

Salmon/Baby Pink Cardigan

Primark

I really wanted a cardigan that wasn't black, so i thought this pink one was perfect and you guessed it...SWEET!

                   

Set of Two waist belts

£2.50

Primark

MUCH NEEDED! My Black belt was disintegrating literally!

Blue Jean Short Dungarees

Topshop

I saw these hanging in the sale and squealed! I've really wanted some dungaree shorts for a long time for my college course and these were perfect. I love the cut of them, a long dungaree would be less comfortable for me! Whether they'll be worn during the construction lessons at college I doubt, but they'll certainly look adorable!

Green & Black Gingham Check Midi Skirt

VINTAGE PRIMARK!!

£3.99

eBay

THIS IS VINTAGE PRIMARK!!!! HOW EXCITING!

Blue/White/Grey Gingham Check Midi Skirt

Vintage Chelsea Girl (River Island)

So that's all for my Clothing Haul! Hope you enjoyed!! xxxx

How I Style Culottes | SS14 Trends |

Ok, So I've already touched on how much of a big hit Culottes are going to be this year! I felt it upon my duty as a blogger to purchase some and to style them for you! 

I Already have a Video over on my YouTube Channel with a few looks including these Culottes!

You can watch it here.

Please take a moment to subscribe if you have YouTube! It's so much fun to make fashion videos!

My Culottes are from ASOS and they're a gorgeous Art Deco pattern on a Bright Orange Palette. I LOVE THEM. I got mine from Ebay however they are still listed on ASOS and you can purchase this pair yourself here.

CASUAL SMART

I've styled the Culottes today in a Smart Casual look, Smart because of the HUGE shoes and the clutch, but casual with the crop top and bowler hat.

Bowler Hat

Forever 21

£12.50

White Crop

H&M

£3.99

Textured Clutch 

Primark

£6

Art Deco Print Culottes

ASOS

£12.50

(eBay find for only £3.99)

UNIF Hellbound Dupes

£32.00

AliExpress

These Culottes are a little long for my tiny legs so I thought I would incorporate my Fabulous UNIF Hellbound Dupes to give me a bit of height. 

I'm planning on taking the hem up to 22 Inches soon so They're better suited to my teeny-weeny-ness.

Throw on a Leather Jacket over this look and you're ready to go!

I really love these trousers! I think they're such a staple piece for my wardrobe and with so many fab pairs to choose from you really can't go wrong!

That's all on how I style these Culottes for now, I'll post a Casual College OOTD with them in very soon!
