Spring Lookbook

So after quite a while with no videos I finally filmed and uploaded a new one!! I absolutely love lookbooks, they're my favourite thing to film and also watch on YouTube. So I decided to do 3 spring outfits for the upcoming sunny months. 

Here in England it's been warmer than usual so that's made me want to dig out the shorts and sunglasses so if it's not that warm where you are yet you could always put jackets or tights on with these outfits.

I thought I would go through my different outfits and where I got my clothes from and stuff in my blog instead of on YouTube so I can explain better.

Outfit 1- Casual

So for this first outfit all of the clothing is from New Look. A lot of the clothes in this are from New Look because there's a store at home and also where I live at uni, so I buy most of my new clothes from there.

The top is an off the shoulder one, which is a style I've always loved! I think it's a nice change to just an ordinary top and a bit more spring/summery because it shows off your shoulders. I didn't think I would like the stripes as much as I do, as I bought a second top like this (2 for £12) which was black but I still wear this one more. 

The jeans I got on offer at New Look, I think they were only £7. They didn't originally have the cuts in the knees, I did them myself but I think it just makes them look a bit different and edgier. 

And finally the shoes are my favourite things. I wear them most days because they are one of the comfiest pair of shoes I've ever owned. They also match all of my wardrobe which is handy and I love the 'Timbaland' feel of them even though I payed way less. They're pretty worn now but I think it makes them look a lot better.

Outfit 2- Spring Playsuit

This playsuit has become one of my new favourite outfits, I love everything about it. I think the pattern is very summery, whilst also being my favourite colour black. And the fit of the playsuit is great, with a tight upper half and then flippy shorts for the bottoms. I really like the top of the playsuit too and how it ties round my neck because I try not to show my chest off the best I can. And I just think the back is really pretty too. And the best part is that this was only £12 from Forever21 which I think is a bargain. I'll definitely be getting my money worth from this outfit. 

The shoes from New Look I've had for a while now and I think they're great. I don't like wearing really big heels as I'm tall enough as it is so these are good because the heel isn't huge and I don't end up towering over my friends. They're also really comfy, and can wear these all night with no problems. 

And finally I can't wait to wear this hat more often over spring and summer. It was a bargain from Primark and it just reminds me of sunhats that you wear on holiday or something you could wear to a festival.

Outfit 3- 

And the top in this outfit is actually new, this was the first time I'd worn it. I'd seen them in pictures online for ages and always wanted one of the tops with the slits up the sides. I think they look great with shorts underneath or even leggings in the colder weather. They just scream festival fashion so that's why I bought this one from New Look.

The shorts are from George at Asda, which is an English supermarket but I so love some of the clothes from George. These are white denim with small buttons on the sides and I think they match this top pretty well. 

And finally the shoes are another pair that I wear daily. I usually wear these on a night out if I'm not wearing heels because they're a bit high but also extremely comfortable. I think they'll be great again for spring and summer when the weather stays nice.

Lastly my sunglasses that I wear with these outfits are from Afflecks which is a collection of shops in Manchester. These are the first round sunglasses I've bought but I love this style and will definitely be buying more like this.

My earrings are just a simple set of silver hoops from Dorothy Perkins I think which I wear almost daily too.

And my watch is also from Asda and I just like the plainness of it because it's just simple black and gold with a leather strap. It was also a bargain at only £8.

So that's all of my outfits for the lookbook. If you haven't seen it yet you can check it out here.

I hope you enjoyed it and I can't wait to get back to the weekly videos again!

Also a huge thanks to Serena over at Serena's Life who helped me shoot the whole thing and take all these great pictures! Go check her page out!

Boohoo Wishlist!

As you all know one of my favourite clothing stores/online stores is definitely Boohoo.com and I recently booked a girls holiday for the summer so my thoughts immediately went to summer fashion and I got really excited. So I thought I'd share with you guys my fashion inspiration for this summer.

First is the long floaty dress because I'm obsessed with these right now. I actually already bought one like this in the middle of winter so I think that's a definite problem with me. I think these would look perfect at a barbecue or even more perfect on a beach. This particular dress is the Sofia Grey Print Wide Sleeve Woven Maxi Dress which is £25. I like the fact that the sleeves and bottom of the dress are sheer, so I wouldn't be too hot in them really.

The next one along is the the white lace shirt, although I do love the shorts too, I'm just not sure what they are but I think the shirt matches well. It's the Natasha Organza Lace Shoulder Panel Oversized Shirt which is £20. I've really been loving shirts lately, baggy thin ones that would be perfect for the summer weather and for holidays.

Next is a bikini that I've absolutely fallen in love with. It's the Hawaii Push Up Tropical Print Long Line Bikini which is also £20. I love the colour and print of this bikini because it's bright and summery. I also love that it's a high waisted bikini bottoms because I think they're more elegant although it's not the best if you're looking to tan as you'll have a high line on your belly. Another thing that makes this perfect is that it's a push up bra because I'm not that comfortable with my chest but I think this would make me more confident whilst on holiday.

Lastly on the top line is a bracelet/ring. It's the Renee Floral Gem Hand Harness which is only £5. I really liked this pretty floral harness and can imagine myself wearing it for a meal out when I go on holiday. I really want to start wearing more jewellery this summer and I've been loving the boho style gold and silver jewellery.

First on the bottom line are the Rach Round Frame Sunglasses which are only £8. I feel in love with rounded frame glasses last year and so I've been looking for another pair for the summer this year too. I like these from Boohoo because they're quite different with the line going through the top. I'd love to get these or maybe some that have a thicker rim because I think they suit me better. 

Next is the Lara Fringed Tassel Rucksack which is only £18. I can imagine having this at a festival this year because of the fun tassels and the practicality of having a back pack at a festival. I think a back pack would be good on holiday too if I'm going for a day out or to the beach and just for summer in general. It looks big enough to fit a lot of things in too.

Next is the Eliza Mock Croc Ankle Strap Peep-Toe Block Heels which are £30. I've been looking for some of these heels for so long. I wanted some with a block heel that weren't too high for when I went out cause I'm tall enough as is it! I also love the buckle on the ankle strap because then they will stay on my feet when I'm dancing.

And lastly is a dress that I'm not sure how it'll look on me but I love how it looks on the model. It's the Mariah Woven Short Sleeve Column Maxi Dress and it's only £15. I think this would look really nice for a barbeque or something like that with a nice pair of boots. I think it would also look great at a festival with a nice pair of combat boots and a ruck sack.

All of these things got me so excited for summer/holiday/festival and I can't wait to be able to buy all these clothes and can't wait for the sun to start shining again!

Which of these is your favourite?

I had an amazing time so stay tuned for more posts that will be up soon!

Bikinis

I've just been to Tesco for some new bikinis because I saw their new range the other day and I was impressed. I'd been looking for a bikini with frills and things and couldn't find one that looked nice on me. But then I saw these in Tesco.

And I feel in love with them immediately.

The Pink one has tassles on the edges and I don't usually like pink but I love this hot pick colour.

And the other one is a coral colour with little detailed frills around the edges and on the cups. I love this colour so much and looks amazing with a tan.

Overall I'm really happy with both these bikinis and if your looking for new ones for your holidays, check out Tesco's range. They are amazing!

Pink top- £8

Pink bottoms- £5

Coral top- £7

Coral bottoms- £5

Which is quite good for bikinis.

Stay Happy!
