Yellow Mellow

1. Light Blue Blazer (link here) - £3.99

2. (Similar) New Look Black Gingham Contrast Sleeve T - Shirt (link here) - £14.99

3. Boohoo Tianna Box Pleat Colour Pop Skater Skirt (link here) - £10.00

4. Daisy Street Kaylin Patent Cut - Out T - Bar Shoes in Yellow (link here) - £14.99

I am absolutely loving my new yellow T - bar shoes from Daisy Street, very SS14. Firstly, what a bargain the light blue blazer is at £3.99?! I bought it from an online E-bay store from China. It did take a while to get here, but it was so worth it. I am wearing my Topshop Gingham T-shirt. Unfortunately, it has sold out online, however, I managed to find an alternative from New Look which is very similar. I feel the Gingham Print breaks up the pastel colours. I wore the Tianna Pop Skater Skirt and I was dying for a pinky coloured shade and this came in store a few weeks ago and I just had to snap it up. The shoes will be featured in many of my outfits throughout SS14 I'm sure!

Until next time,

My SS14 Shoe Wishlist

When it comes to shopping, my weakness is buying shoes. There are many pairs of shoes that I wish to get my hands on this SS14 and I thought I would share that list with you!.

1. Stella McCartney Dupe

Cut Out Chunky Platforms (link here for both) - £26. 87

ASOS Set Me Free Heels (link here) - £24.50

These shoes won't be everyones' cup of tea but I think these shoes are just amazing. The real Stella McCartney shoes are definitely out of my price range, therefore I am opting for a cheaper version on E-bay. I was worried that I would only find cheaper versions that only ship from China meaning that they would take ages to come but I managed to find some cheap ones from the UK for only £26.87. The best bit is yet to come. This E-bay store do these shoes in Pink!!! I cannot wait to purchase these!. 

There is also a similar pair available from ASOS at only £24.50 in the sale, too many bargains to cope with right now. Not good for the bank balance. 

2. La Moda Lilac Jelly Shoes

Lilac Jelly Shoes (link here) - £9.99

I love La Moda. They have so much variety at such reasonable prices. As these shoes are only £9.99! I was estatic when the Jelly Shoes made a comeback last year as I lived in them as a child and no they're not just for children! I was sporting the black pair last Summer; this year I thought I would step up my game and purchase a lilac pair as it is my favourite colour this year. The pastel trend is a big hit this year and these shoes would be perfect for a casual day out or as beach wear. I can't wait to snap up a pair of these!

3. Silver Holographic Sandals 

 

Silver Holographic Sandals (link here) - £17.99

Yes, you've guessed it. This is another E-bay find. I have been after a pair of holographic sandals for a while now but I haven't been able to decide whether I want to purchase the style above or a boot style with more buckles. I opted for the above style because doing up lots of buckles on the boot style will take me a long time and I'm not very patient. To be honest, I think the sandals style will be more versatile. These pair are the cheapest I have seen also and with free P&P, what's not to like?!

4. Topshop Giggle Geek Shoes

Topshop Giggle Geek Shoes (link here) - £28.00

I have had my eyes on these shoes ever since they arrived online a week ago. I am not usually a fan of these types of sandals but I love the colour and the design. I think the T-bar design is adorable and will look lovely worn with Summer dresses. I don't think they're too over pricey at £28.00 either. 

5. Daisy Street Kaylin Patent Cut - Out T - Bar Shoes in Coral 

Daisy Street Kaylin Patent Cut - Out T - Bar Shoes (link here) - £14.99

I am a huge fan of Daisy Street (if you didn't know that already) and when these shoes appeared on the website last week, I just had to snap these up. I haven't purchased the coral shoes yet, but I have bought the yellow shade which are amazing, much better in real life and so, so comfortable! These will look gorgeous with Summer dresses and skirts and are right on trend with the pastel shades and the nude colours. At £14.99, I would say they are a bargain. 

6. River Island Green Glitter Block Heel Jelly Shoes

River Island Green Glitter Block Heel Jelly Shoes (link here) - £18.00

Yes, it's the Jelly Shoes again. What I find, is that I always tend to want the same pairs of shoes but in different colours. Normally, I am not a fan of the heeled Jelly Shoes but how can you not love these?! They are beautiful! They would go with any style too and they're only £18.00 which I believe is very reasonable. 

That is my SS14 shoe wishlist for now! If you have seen anymore great bargains or shoes that you think I may like or want to share than please let me know :)

Until next time,

Feeling like a Marshmallow

(My dog jumped up at me with dirty paws in the last photo, luckily he did it after the photos were taken!)

1. Missguided Lilih Sweatshirt in Pastels (link here) - £19.99

2. Topshop Petite Mini Gingham Leggings (link here) - £22.00

3. (Similar) Ronya Oversized Boyfriend Coat (link here) - £40.00

4. (Similar) Pretty Little Thing Mia Red Patent Creeper (link here) - £8.00

I am most definitely feeling like a cross between a Marshmallow and a Dolly Mixture sweet today. As the weather is slowly deteriorating yet again (typical British weather), I thought I would add a little colour to the world and go all out. I have got the pink coat out again after putting it towards the back of my coat rail as the weather WAS warming up, but hey, this is the UK after all. The coat I am wearing is from Dresslily has sold out, but I managed to find a similar version on Boohoo, however, it is a little pricier than what I had paid for the coat I own. 

Last week, Missguided had free postage on all orders, so I just had to make an order. I had my beady eye on this pastel jumper for a while now but I am on a tight budget at the moment, so I'm trying to only buy clothes which are on sale, have a discount or free postage. So, you can imagine how happy I was to see that Missguided had free postage available. I am in love with this jumper. It just screams SS14 all over. I love all the variations of pastel colours it has and I think the pocket is adorable. I paired this jumper with a pair of Gingham leggings from Topshop. I have had these for a while now and get plenty of wear from them. However, I would advise to get a size smaller as they do come up a little big on the legs as I have to roll the hems up and these are petite length! However, at only £22.00 how can you refuse?! I personally think the leggings pair well with the jumper. Lastly, I added a pair of red patent brogues/creepers. I always get complimented on these and always get asked where they are from but unfortunately, I bought them three years ago and they have sold out where I purchased them and I can't seem to see them anywhere else, but I love them! They go with anything and they inject abit of a darker effect to this outfit. 

After these pictures were taken, my dog decided to jump up at me and put his dirty paws on my clothes but luckily this was after the photos were taken....just!

Until next time,

It's All About The Velvet

Velvet Burgundy Wine Oversized Shirt purchased from Wanderland £18 - website found here

Urban Outfitters BDG Velvet Leggings in Paisley - sold out but found here

Dr Martens Chelsea Boots £65 - found here

 One of my weakness trends of the year is velvet. I call it my weakness trend because I overbuy on the stuff. I just love the texture and feel of velvet - it just screams the 90's!
I am wearing an oversized burgundy wine coloured velvet shirt. I bought this shirt a a year and a half ago from Wanderland who have a boutique shop on ASOS Marketplace. This is the type of clothing I like to wear when I just want to throw an outfit on and feel comfortable yet stylish. If you love the 90's trend, you should definitely check out Wanderland on ASOS Marketplace as they have so many bargains and gorgeous pieces. The link for Wanderland on ASOS Marketplace is listed above.
I purchased the BDG Paisley Velvet Leggings in September 2013. I have received so many compliments on these leggings. The print is gorgeous and really distinctive. They are great quality and the velvet material still remains after many washes. Unfortunately, these leggings have now sold out online, however, you may be able to find similar pairs on E - bay or at other retail stores.
I have paired this outfit with my Dr Martens Chelsea Boots. I adore these shoes. These are my most comfortable shoes that I own. I purchased these via E - bay as they are quite pricey from the Dr Martens store; there are always a pair listed when I check on E - bay, so if you want a pair, it may be best to check on E - bay if you don't fancy paying Dr Martens prices.
Thanks for reading. On Monday I will be posting my Gingham wishlist.

Until then,

Florals and Lace

 ASOS Skater Skirt In Vintage Sunflower Print £18 - Found here

Cream Lace Shirt - Vintage 

ASOS Petite Exclusive Blazer with Metallic Shine £23 - Found here

Topshop Milla Silver Lace Up Shoes £7 - Found here 

Today, I thought I would continue with slowly bringing the Spring colours and prints out of the wardrobe. I have decided to mix florals and lace together as they make a good combination. 

I adore the sunflower print skirt. It was only £18 from ASOS which I think is a great price. It is good quality. I think they are selling fast so if you want to purchase the skirt, I advise you get it NOW. :)

 I think it is definitely going to be my main staple for my Spring wardrobe as it goes with any outfit. For some reason, the print reminds me of the sunflower collection that American Apparel had out last year. I think sunflower prints are going to be huge this SS14. 

I paired the skirt today with a lace shirt. I have had this shirt for two years and I still love it. I purchased it from a vintage store but lace is going to be big for SS14 and many stores are starting to sell lace garments. I love the pointed collar on this shirt as I can style it in many ways. It looks very cute underneath a jumper. 

The blazer is again from ASOS at £23, however, it is sold out on the website as I purchased this in January 2013. This blazer is part of a matching set which I'll feature in my "Matching Set" post. I like this blazer because it is very versatile, yet unique. It can be worn with anything from skirts to jeans. I like the metallic shine and I really like the fit. It is from the Petite range therefore it is quite fitted and I feel it fits my frame well. 

As for my shoes, I am wearing the Topshop Milla hologram shoes. These were in the sale for £7 (bargain, right?!) but unfortunately, have sold out. I have noticed some pairs for sale on E - bay so get hunting!. I'm going to do a separate post for these shoes but all I will say is that if you want to stand out from the crowd and shine (literally) these are the shoes for you!

Hope you liked my post on more SS14 outfits. Tomorrow I will be doing a blog on outfits I liked from The Brits. 

Until then,
