Wannabe Banksy...




Dress - Zara | Sandals - SPYLOVEBUY | Watch - Michael Kors | Choker - Topshop

Okay so even though I took Art at GCSE level I'm definitely no artist haha. I 100% preferred photography but this dress reminds me so much of a painting I once attempted. Although I've never been a massive fan of primary colours this was an instant lust for my eyes when I spied it while interning at This Morning. The shape is super easy to wear and will be perfect for winter as well as summer. 

Lots of Love

ONLY GOOD THINGS ARE RARE



Dress c/o RARE LONDON | Sandals from SPY LOVE BUY | Sunglasses from PRIMARK | Hat from KANGOL c/o Rosie Fortescue

Whilst trying to set up my new blog I was contacted by the lovely people at Label PR asking if I'd like to do a review of an item from Rare London, after thinking perhaps they'd got the wrong person (honestly!) I of course accepted. Two days later I'd finally made my choice in the form of this beautiful monochrome scallop double hem dress, utterly stunning and just the perfect fit for my shape. 

At first the backless aspect scared me a little as my body was not made to go braless (hello boobs), but after trying it with a range of different coloured bra's it looks great either with nude or a pop of colour which you could match to your shoes or bag. Chiffon always reminds me of dresses when I was little, the softness and floatiness to the top section of this one will be super perfect for all occasions this season. 

My white chunky sandals and floppy hat give it a casual 'picnic' feel but I'm already imagining it with heels and a little jacket for evenings. RARE LONDON have such an amazing range of clothing from dresses to co-ords and my list is constantly getting longer of things I'd love to buy.

Is there anything you're lusting over from their website? Let me know!

Lots of Love

Noah didn't build this PRETTY LITTLE ARK THING

HI HI HI HI!!! 

It has certainly been a while since I blogged and if you follow me on Twitter/Instagram it means you won't have missed me too much, right? Things got a bit crazy and I needed to concentrate on my website shoots and work so unfortunately my blog took a back seat, but I appear to be back (yeeehaaaa) and just in time for this warm weather. I hope to post more often and with a lot more of my favourite outfits, reviews, BTS on shoots & anything else you'd like to see let me know.

So let's start with this beautiful monochrome floral co-ord from the super cool brand ARK clothing it's thee perfect fit and the layered detail of the skirt is really flattering for my hips. Ark sell a whole host of brands from Motel to Lavish Alice and a wide variety for both men and women, however it's Ark's own brand of clothing and especially their co-ords (go grab the dolphin co-ord NOW as it was sold out when I tried..boo hoo) that I 100% recommend and absolutely adore.

Worn over the shoulders is my newest charity shop purchase in the form of this gorgeous long line blazer originally from Planet and BRAND NEW for only £5. I picked this up in one of Newark's local charity shops when I was there visiting family at the weekend. It's mottled grey tone and lightweight material will be a great partner for my outfits this summer.

Now let's talk about the shoes that EVERYONE either has or wants....the cleated heel shoe. These beauties can be purchased from Pretty Little Thing (link below) and my ones are samples from Wingfield PR who represent PLT and are being used for my next fashion shoot at the end of the month (exciting!!!). Pretty Little Thing have some of the best clothing amongst online retailers and are definitely my 'go to' brand for up to date style.

Keeping things fresh..

Hello!

It feels so strange to be completely restarting my blog and although it wasn't necessary, I feel that it'll be good to start a fresh and focus on more outfit, styling, ones to watch etc posts. I get a lot of people asking me to style for certain occasions and also for shoots so I'd love to share my thoughts to everyone. 

If there's anything you'd like to see me post about please let me know! For now I shall leave you with my wish list for Christmas which can all be found on the websites supplied. I can only apologize if you fall in love with any of these items... 


Lots of Love
