JUMPSUIT




Jumpsuits. This is my first jumpsuit & I love it! Such a simple easy thing to wear yet looks a little different from what everyone else is wearing. Plus points. I got this lace jumpsuit in the ASOS sale, total bargain. My only moan - ASOS not everyone has slender model-esque calves, some of us have a more sturdy calf therefore a little give in the leg would be delightful - apart from that I can't complain. I didn't manage to get a proper full length picture but I wore the imfamous Zara heels which I showed a few posts ago. Loved the outfit. Nights out are always good when you feel good in your outfit.

ALL IN MY STRIDE OR IN MY BAG?!


I have been missing a little recently mainly due to university work but yesterday was the hand in for my big report, this morning was my exam so I don't really have that excuse anymore! I have one presentation a week today which I doubt will take up as much of my time as the report and exam did so I am happy to say that I am back in the blogging world ... oh how I have missed it! And ... summer is nearly here! Believe it or not?!

On to the point of this post, I had planned on getting myself these shoes today when my exam was all done & I felt like I deserved a treat however I ended up buying them last week almost a week before my exam... I might have also bought a handbag too! Both are wonderfully beautiful pieces that will have plenty of use out of them so it was worth the money. I did work hard this semester too so I deserve them... kind of. A little bit. I blame Twitter, Emma in particular! haha.



Of course they were worn while revising, what else would you wear? Orange palazzo pants & heels is standard revision wear! Right?! x

THINKING BIG


Bet you're all thinking 'Why is she so tall next to the stack of hat boxes?!' 'Is she some form of giant?' The answer to both is I am kneeling. 'Why?' You ask now. The answer is simple: I am too lazy to get my pile of books that I use to balance my camera on over so I figured this would be the easiest way! #lazyblogger also #toocheaptobuyatripodblogger

Anyways, this is the second time my lovely new H&M necklace has been featured on here. I love it so very much. It is such a perfect pale coral pink colour & it sits perfectly on the neck/chest area. I think it dresses up an all together very casual outfit.

I had a mild exam related breakdown earlier but I seem to have gotten it under control, topics have been selected now all I have to do is learn them... Que breakdown number two ladies & gentlemen it will be here before the week is out.

TICKING CLOCKS


I have dreamt about this River Island watch for ages I don't know why, I've never been a watch person but it turns out to be something that makes me feel like me. Is that odd?! 

It was only £25 but makes me feel very chic & important, two qualities which I obviously have oodles of - I'm kidding. Expect to see this little beauty more frequently on here as I love her muchly, I'm sorry I called my watch a 'her'.

"CLOTHES MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD"




This is just another little rambly post, I promise I will get back into doing proper outfit posts soon. I guess I had sort of lost the want to do it or maybe I was just being lazy - probably lazy. Anyways, I got May's Elle UK yesterday with Emily Blunt as the cover girl. Elle is without a doubt my favourite magazine & totally worth the £3.90 in my opinion. I really enjoy the Editors Letter this month which I poorly photographed! On a very basic, simple fashion related only level I 100% agree.

This top was a random purchase in H&M, H&M I find is cheeky for this - you go in for a look & leave swinging your little, or large, bag of goodies. The top is just a gorgeous bright coral - more on the pink side - and has such beautiful detail on the colour & the buttons down the back. I could resist it really... I think I will team it with a black bandage skirt for next weekend. I also got this orange & gold ring which I love, it is really big & statement plus it is in my favourite colour! The last thing I bought was Ernest Hemingway's 'A Moveable Feast' which I am really looking forward to starting, I have heard so many wonderful things about it so hopefully it will live up to its name. I'm sure it will.

FEELING SUMMER LIKE




Todays outfit.

These are the jeans seen in my previous post. I say jeans, they are a sort of heavy duty leggings material. They re so comfortable, I wore them out on Saturday with a black cropped tshirt & my Dorothy Perkins heels with my Marc B Chelsea bag used as a clutch unfortunately I forgot to take a picture! I wore them today in this amazing weather with a black loose H&M tshirt tied up into a more fitted almost crop top with some black sandals - sandals in March, crazy times!


H&M Floral trousers

What do we think of them? On me, not in general. It's all about me don't ya know, I'm kidding! Do we think they are flattering? Help!

My recent purchases ... how much of an amazing summery outfit do they make! All H&M apart from the clutch which is Accesorize.

BERRY NICE



The Warehouse sale is one of my favourite. They have decent reductions on sale items, not a silly few quid off. I want a proper sale. These berry coloured trousers were originally £35 but were reduced to £17! See what I mean, that is a saving. Naturally I snapped them up, slightly in two minds sitting at my laptop but when they arrived & I tried them on ... it was love. They are high waisted & a sort of heavy duty legging material. Very skinny. Very gorgeous.

I have plans for them for this weekend. I'm thinking either my shoe boots or my heels seen in this post. With either a plain black H&M crop top & gold collar necklace or my sequined Zara tshirt. What do we think? Big chunky clutch as well . What else!

In other news, I want my hair to grow! Right now! Hopefully it won't take too long, my hair normally grows pretty fast so keep everything crossed for me. Ever the dramatic am I!

Hope everyone is enjoying this gorgeous weather. I am on day 4 of a 6 day working block... *sigh*. Two to go, two to go!

CLUTCHING ONTO ORANGE


Meet my new bag. Isn't she gorgeous! H&M £12.99. Steal. Orange is my favourite colour, if you take part in the Celina Fabise quiz 2012 & favourite colour comes up, you're sorted! It is a beautiful rich orange suedette (I presume) with beige patent section. I was searching for a black clutch as mine are getting a little done looking but my eyes met with Orange here, I checked her out & she was mine. *Story slightly romanticised*

I plan on debuting this little beaut on my arm tonight with my new Zara dress, I will get decent outfit pictures & show you both! Promise.

GREEN WITH COLLAR


I was planning on doing an outfit post with this new top from River Island but I just can't be bothered getting my camera set up & trying to get decent shots so I am afraid a web cam shot will have to do for today. This top was only £12 but it is a really easy to wear piece that goes with pretty much everything. My only moan - the colour selection. I got the green, it is brighter than pictured but not by much a sort of grass green (?!) or a mushroom colour that was really bland & I doubt would do much for any skin tone or a Barbie almost highlighter pink that River Island seem to be very fond of. I went for green - I don't wear any green really so I thought it would be a nice change. I teamed it with my Levi shorts, leopard print belt, black tights, black flats & my Barbour Daphne jacket. All of which you have seen before.
