Transparent bag

Transparent bags were a great trend for SS13 as seen at Valentino and Burberry shows. However great they look, they're probably not always going to be your everyday kind of handbag, you don't need everyone knowing what's in the depth of your kitchen sink bag all the time do you? Zara has some great neon transparent little clutches, (see below £19.99) great for a night out, but if your looking for a real bargain then check this little bag I spied in primark yesterday! At only £9 it won't matter if you only use it once or twice. It's made from a soft light plastic so if you drop it then it won't shatter like I've heard a certain number of these transparent bags do..

Sunday Summer Outfit

My black and white paisley shift dress from last summer came out of my wardrobe yesterday for a brand new look which i love! Layering a simple black tshirt over the top of the dress made it look like a skirt and dresses it down. Perfect for the sunny weather this bank holiday, and even more perfect for an afternoon of drinking in the sun! Im also in love with this gold and turquoise statement necklace from Claire's accessories too. Here's the full outfit...

Kenzo Jumper Rip Off!

When the kenzo tiger jumper hit the catwalks it caused a stir being seen on millions of top blogs and fashionistas... bit now thankfully it's filtered down to the high street, bloody FANTASTIC! After careful consideration on a few tiger head jumpers..this is my favourite one from h&m! Roll on some bank holiday shopping!!

matchy matchy

One of my favourite trends this season is the matching sets. Firstly they have such a vintage dress up vibe - I feel like my Grandma in her youth, when they would all dress up properly, when there was more pride, elegance and beauty to everyday dressing.

Secondly there is the more practical side to these matching sets. Say goodbye to the one night only dress and say hello to mixing and matching a top and a bottom for 3 new looks for your wardrobe. Wear your crop top with some high waisted jeans for the day; the skirt with your bikini for wandering to the beach; then the full coordinating outfit to make that fashion statement.
Here are few of my favourites - Banana leaf print, oh so Louis Vuitton yellow and white check, Hawaiian floral prints, snake print and nautical stripes.
Oh I just can't decide which print to buy!

Summer Sandal Spotlight




 
Being a little bit short I like wearing heels, but when you're wandering the streets of London all the time high heels aren't always the best option. So to sort out this little wardrobe problem I invested in these two beautiful pairs of sandals.
