Dot to Dot




1. River Island Spotty Tappy Dress (link here) - £25.00
2. Black Fluffy Jumper (E - bay)
3. Dr Martens Polley Shoe (link here) - £90.00

I feel that I look slightly awkward in these photos haha, so I apologise! I had just come back from a manic driving lesson with my dad.
 At this time of year I think everyone faces the dilemma of what to wear because the weather is very hormonal. This is why I love layering with a jumper without looking too overdressed or under dressed. 
In this post, I am wearing a navy blue polka dot dress from River Island which I purchased via ASOS as then I can get free postage, yay! I love polka dot; it's girly and cute. Not forgetting that this dress has a peter pan collar and I looooveee peter pan collars. I wore a black fluffy jumper which I purchased from E - bay over the top. I love this jumper as it is fitted and can be worn with various of things, definitely a big staple in my wardrobe at the moment. I love how the collar from the dress sits perfectly on top of the jumper. 
I wore my Mary Janes Dr Martens, so this adds to the cuteness. Like all Dr Martens, I advise to purchase a smaller size as they tend to come up a little bigger. These are the first pair that actually fit me properly as I purchased a size smaller. I always feel like I should be at Primary School when I wear these shoes but they are adorable after all. 

Until next time,

Let It Roll










1. Lazy Oaf  Let It Roll T - Shirt (link here) - £40.00
2. MOTO Gingham Print Joni Jeans (link here) - £38.00
3.  (Similar) Dr. Martens Aggy Strap Ankle Boots (link here)  - £57.96
4. (Similar) Topshop Boxy Fur Gilet (link here) - £65.00


Firstly, I apologise for the lack of make up I am wearing in these photos. These photos were taken on a very busy day and I went without wearing mascara, I have realised mascara helps in many ways.
Onto the outfit. As the weather is slowly improving (yay! However, it is currently the type of weather where I don't know what to wear or not!) I thought I would go without a large, heavy coat and opt for the faux fur gilet which I feel is appropriate for this type of weather as you don't feel too overdressed or under dressed. I bought this gilet from Ebay a long time ago, but there is plenty of similar ones around, I just linked a Topshop one above. These gilets are very versatile and can be worn on any occasion and can be thrown on over anything.
 I have recently purchased the Let it Roll crop top from Lazy Oaf. The price of this is £40 from Lazy Oaf but I managed to purchase this on Ebay for twenty - something pounds. (I love Ebay me). I have also noticed this top on PersunMall a few weeks ago at only £16 but when I went to buy it, it was sold out :( I think it's always best to do a little search before paying £40.00. I saw this top on another blogger and I instantly fell in love with it. It is a cropped fit, so I'll probably wear it with high waisted bottoms. It has such a nice tartan print to the neck line and on the sleeves. The Let It Roll and dog image just adds quirkiness to it.
I paired this top with my Gingham Joni Jeans. I purchased these jeans around about the same time I purchased the Let It Roll top. (Yes, I purchased them from E-Bay, shocker). I think I may have to order many more pairs of Joni jeans as these are soooooo comfy and have a very flattering high waist! And I'm wearing gingham (shocker again). I love the gingham print this season. On my feet, I am wearing Dr. Martens Aggy Strap boots. These are not in sale anymore, however, I have managed to find some fakes for you if you're interested. They look no different to the originals from the pictures (link is below the pictures). I love these boots, they are super comfy, look great with anything and are different. The only negative is that they take an age to do all the buckles up and do the zip up but it's all worth it!
So, this was my first outfit I wore out without a big coat, I felt naked. BUT BRING ON SUMMER.

Until next time,
Sommer x
