Style B4 Fashion Haul

Not too long ago, I kindly got sent some lovely pieces of jewellery by the online boutique Style B4 Fashion. They are a up and coming online store that I am sure will go far with their lovely pieces.
I have only really got into the jewellery 'hype' this year. If you know me, you will know that I don't go anywhere without my skull rings on (accept work, damn uniform policies). I am a sucker for rings and I do love a good long necklace. I was extremely pleased when Style B4 Fashion sent me pieces that I know I will get plenty of wear out of.



1. Eiffel Tower Necklace (*)



Style B4 Fashion website found here

When I first went on the Style B4 Fashion website, the first thing that attracted me was the Paris themed pieces. Having been to Paris a few times myself, I do love the City. I love this necklace because it has a long chain and I am one of these people that can't be dealing with the time and awkwardness it takes to do up a short chain; I'm just lazy and like throwing necklaces over my head. I really like the detail and care it has taken to create this necklace. It it is in good condition and looks more than the asking price. 

2. Question Mark Ring (*)

As most of you know, I love rings. I love rings that are unusual and are different. This ring is a question mark ring and fits perfectly. The colour is gold, but can also be purchased in silver and is a great price at £3.50. This ring fits my personality well I feel as I feel that I am the type of person that doesn't even know what they're doing half the time, so this ring is perfect for me!

3. Moustache Ring (*)

Again, this is a very unusual ring and I like that. This ring is such a statement piece that I think this ring worn without any other rings on the hand will look good. For some reason, the moustache print has been quite big over the last few years. I haven't joined that trend but I do like this ring; I especially like the gold trim as it makes the ring stand out. Also, I love double finger rings!

4. Eiffel Tower Ring (*)

If I had to pick a favourite piece, this would be it.Not only because I love Paris but the rose gold colouring is beautiful and the detailing of the ring is amazing. Again, this product definitely definitely looks more than the asking price of £3.50! This ring is such a statement ring, that I think this will look eye catching enough to be worn on its own without any other rings on the hand. 

5. Eiffel Tower Gold Earrings (*)

I haven't got my ears pierced but I so wish I did after seeing these earrings! Again, they are of amazing detail and a gorgeous rose gold tinted colour. I think they would look adorable when worn! They are in good condition and look more than the asking price. They would great worn on a night out as I imagine they are quite sparkly and pretty!  

Thanks again to the lovely team at Style B4 Fashion for sending me these lovely pieces, expect to see these in future posts.

That 70's vibe








1. Glitter long sleeved turtle neck top - E-bay
2. Purple Mom Jeans (website here)
3. Black belt (website here)
4. Brown Desert Shoes - E-bay

This outfit reminds me of something from the 70's hence the title. I am wearing a glitter turtle neck which I purchased from E-bay in October 2013 and it is one of my favourite tops and as most of you know, I love a turtleneck. I am wearing purple mom jeans purchased from Wanderland Boutique in October 2013 also. I paired this outfit with some brown desert boots I bought from E-bay three years ago. And it was nice of my Alfie to join me at the end!

Until next time,

Born in the 90's









1. (Similar) Persunmall Tartan Bomber Jacket (link here) - £24.47 
2. Daisy Street Aharon Cropped Boxy Mesh Tee in Pink (link here) - £11.99
3. (Similar) New Look Light Blue Acid Wash Denim Skinny Dungarees (link here) - £29.99 
4. Bass Weejuns Kiltie Tassel Loafer Black (link here) - £59.11

Today was the first day that I got the chance to wear my own clothes for a while as I have recently started a new job which includes wearing a uniform. The uniform isn't the best, so it felt good to finally wear my own clothes again! In this post, I look a cross between a toddler and a person sent from the 90's. But I don't care as I these dungarees are the comfiest things ever. I have owned these dungarees since last Summer and I lived in them last year. These dungarees are vintage dungarees from Gap but I have added a similar pair which is listed above. The pair that I am wearing is an acid wash colour and I love them as I haven't seen a pair of dungarees like them yet. I tied the pastel trend in with this outfit as I wore the Daisy Street fishnet mesh t-shirt which I love and at £11.99 it is a bargain! I love the rolled up sleeves and the design. And I am wearing my Bass Weejuns loafers on my feet which gives this look a chic feel. 

Until next time,

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

Image 1 of ASOS SET ME FREE Heels
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 :)
