Night Out - Spring/Summer Style Ideas


So I've got a few nights out coming up and thought i'd update you on some of the possibilities I have/ some of the things I've been buying.

First up is a monochrome look, because who doesn't love black and white?!




Dress - Boohoo.com
Blazer - Urban Outfitters
Necklace - Topshop
Shoes - Topshop (brand new on ebay = BARGAIN)
I love the v-neck detailing on this dress and the block colours are really flattering and in a way create
an illusion of a slimmer frame (ain't nobody gonna complain about that)
The necklace is lovely and a rare thing for me to wear, I do find that it tangles quite easily though.
Love the blazer as its really lightweight and just the right length.
The shoes are really comfy, I really like the buckle detail and have received quite a few compliments for them.
The grea thing about the shoes is you can wear them casually or in the evening.
I would probably wear these shoes with every outfit i've posted.



Necklace - ASOS
Top- ASOS
Skirt - Missguided.com
I've had this skirt for a while, I really like it but for some reason I'm nervous to wear it.
I think when I do I will wear it like this though.


Shirt - Pretaportobello.com
Crop Top - Topshop
Skirt - Topshop
This is a more of a day to night look, because for me, I would happily wear this look during the day or night.

What do you think? YAY or NAY?

Spring/Summer 14 Wishlist





I've recently started my first PR internship and so a lot of my time is spent looking at clothes, not that that really differs to my normal day to day life to be honest. But I do notice that when you're forced to look at clothes and are surrounded by a showroom full of pretty things it makes your wish list pile up.

The first thing I'm loving at the moment is the pastel shades. My favourite colour is purple and so I really enjoy the lilac shades but also love the pastel pinks. I think that the blue and minty green tones are also lovely but feel they don't really suit my complexion as much. Yellows are also really cute, but i've just always been afraid of the colour.

My favourite LFW Show was Burberry (I've always been a sucker
for lacey things and the colours were just perfect) and I think
that Warehouse have a pretty nice take on the Burberry Look.
I try to steer away from the cooler colours on the top because they have a tendency to flush me out,
so this skirt is perfect.
Warehouse Lace Pencil Skirt
£55


This little crop is perfect to team with a midi skirt like the one above,
or a more simple option like the one below.
Topshop Rib Crop Tee
£8
 
Gingham is a quite a popular trend on the high street at the moment,
its quite subtle yet stylish and this skirt in particular works well with pastel tones.
Topshop Monochrome Gingham Tube Skirt
£24

Carrying on with the Gingham theme Pull & Bear do a really nice Gingham Co-Ord.
Strangely they don't style the items together on the site, however,  I think the items go really nicely
together and are perfect for spring.
Pull & Bear Check Print Crop
£17.99
Pull & Bear Print Skirt
£15.99

I saw this look uploaded on the Whistles Instagram pages earlier today
and fell in love.
I love the pink jumper and the fact that its crop and the front and dips at the back.
The trousers are also super cute and ideal for spring.
The Jumpers not yet on the website.
Whistles Flamingo Print Trouser
£380

Whistles also do a cute take on the slip on trainer which I love in both options. Perfect for the more
chilled out spring time look.
Whistles Lena Slip on Trainer
£135


I'm looking forward to what else the high street has to offer and will keep you updated on new additions to my wish list.
Let me know what you think, or what items are on your wish list.
