Long time no blog! I work in my local pub and basically, the hours they're giving me are full time whilst I'm off uni for the summer. So, I have no time to do anything really...

Managed to take a few photos of an outfit I wore out shopping the other day. The weather was quite gloomy so, I dressed all in black but wanted to add a bit of colour with the floral blazer/jacket. I love this jacket but I don't wear it enough. I bought it from the Miss Selfridge sale about 5 years ago and it is an item I won't throw away.

I'm wearing it with my Topshop Joni jeans, which are so high waisted and so comfortable and goes so well with crop tops! and the Topshop cami which is light and is perfect with everything. They have it in so many colours.. I know the boots I'm wearing aren't exactly blogger material as they're not cut out but still, these are a nice pair just to throw on - from Topshop again (I am slightly obsessed with Topshop!!)

I also had to feature my new ring from The Bohemian Co. It was £1 in the sale!! (just looked now and it's 50p) I couldn't believe the price and when it arrived in the post I fell in love even more. It's a silver quartz knuckle ring. It's heavy but, It made me feel quite powerful wearing it haha! They have sooo many lovely items on their website, I especially love their turquoise items like this ring.  I thought I'd contrast the rugged-ness of the ring with my delicate Vivienne Westwood watch and Swarovski Polly pendant necklace.

Two Piece

                                                         Two piece - Laura Ralph Designs
                                                            
I had to show my new two piece by Laura Ralph Designs. I've been after one of these for sooo long and they're in such high demand on her Facebook page, I just jumped at this one. I love it.

It's a lovely light fabric and leaves plenty of room, especially in the shorts. I really do not like shorts that cling to the thigh so when you sit down it leaves a bulge even when they fit you on the waist!
 I love the idea of two pieces because you can mix and match with different items in your wardrobe. I literally cannot wait to wear this in Rhodes in 4 weeks time. This is my new favourite buy!

Lunch with a friend

Blouse - Mink Pink via ASOS (old)

Skirt - Urban Outfitters (old)

Boots - Topshop (old)

Bag - Mulberry

I've decided I hate taking photos in my bedroom but, I had to today as the weather was so on/off I didn't want to risk it. Also, it's been a while since I've posted as I've been manic in work at my local pub which gives me hardly any spare hours... Can't complain as every penny helps! Especially as I'm trying to build up a holiday wardrobe for a friend's wedding in Rhodes (4 weeks and counting)

I went out for lunch today with an old friend who I lived with in uni and I haven't seen her since May so, we met up which was lovely. Nice to have a catch up. I wanted to wear something floaty and light as although it's torrential rain, it's heavy too. 

I love this Mink Pink polka dot blouse, it's something a little different, although it does crease so easily and it's so hard to iron right (only my Nan can do it properly!!) I've paired it with this Urban Outfitters skirt as I like a little clash of prints. I also love these Topshop boots that I had for Christmas from my grandparents. They are one of the most worn pair of boots in my cupboard. I always pair them (and any of my boots) with socks. Today I went white to match the dots on my blouse.

Hope you like my look, and sorry the photos are the best!!
