Peppered Leopard

Hi guys

Its been a while since I have done an outfit post for two reasons, one not actually having a camera for the best part of a month and the second being the boy taking rubbish pictures on my iphone. Last weekend we where invited to a lovely 25th wedding anniversary meal at a gorgeous country club. I would of taken pictures of the venue but since I now want my non existent wedding there I'm keeping it to myself.

Dress - H & M £14.99
Blazer - H & M
Belt - Forever 21
Shoes - M & S (Actually my work shoes)

Now the keen eyed of you would notice I actually whore this when we went to Harry Potter but I dressed it down with no belt flat shoes and my leather jacket. This is my first leopard print dress and I have to say I love it, now everything with leopard print is catching my eye and I have to tell my self not to buy it all I don't want to turn into that girl. 

What do you think guys a classic wardrobe stable or send it to the charity shop kind of dress?

Thanks for reading

Park Life

Hi guys

I thought I would share a little outfit post with you, I usually make the boy take pictures of me in the dinning room against a plain wall but while the sun was shinning I thought outside pictures would be nice. Now I must explain the reason for the frowny face, Its half due to squinting half due to the boy rushing me saying can we get this over with just in case some one sees us!!

Now the top underneath the cardigan is an very old vest top from whistles that I love but don't wear very often. The cardigan its self is from good old Primark and if I remember correctly was £5. The jeans are from River Island and are a skinny fit just turned up at the bottom. The boots are another River Island purchase I got in the sale for £7.50 check them out in this post here. The handbag is my Mulberry that I'm very lucky to own and treasure it like a child.

Festival Frolics

Hi guys

I like many others are praying that this awful weather has vanished and the sunshine is cracking the flag by the time the festival I'm going to is here.

I'm lucky enough to be going to V-Fest this year as me and the boy bought our tickets straight after last years festival on the early bird special. Ill obviously be taking loads of pictures and doing a blog post on my antics but in these last few weeks I've been hunting the sales to find festival bargains and putting together my looks.

Now its safe to say I'm not even contemplating the weather being anything but sunny so I've gone short shorts all the way.

Lets start with the footwear shall we, these boots were an absolute steal!! from the River Island sale. If your a little bit sad like me you would of been queuing up outside your local River Island on Tuesday at the crack of dawn to make sure you got your wrist band to get an extra 50% off sale items. I did this last year with my friend and got loads of bargains so when I found out they where doing it again I jumped at the chance and was queuing up at 7.30am to get exactly what I was after. On a small not to River Island though I was very disappointed that it was only four items this year instead of 10 like last time but you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth as they say.

Lets start with my only shoe purchase recently with the boots. The boots started life at £75 as they are real leather and were reduced to £30 in the sale so I got them at £15 and couldn't believe my luck. However when I got to the check out I noticed they had a broken zip on one side and they where the last ones. So before I broke into tears over the loss of the boots the very nice sales assistant gave me over 50% off  and I got them for £7.50.

As for the broken zip I managed to get it working when I got home so even though it was missing its nice little tazzle on one side they can still be worn. I did take them to the little cobbler man in town and for the very reasonable price of £3.95 has done a little job on the zip so it looks all most as good as new and I'm going to keep my eye out for something I can replace the tazzle with.

Next is an out fit that I'm hoping to wear either with the tan boots or the good classic black hunters if the weather is not in our favour. The top if from International which yes is still actually going where I live believe it not and cost £7 in the sale and I also got another sale item for free. The shorts are a lovely pale green not something I would normally wear but a nice change from regular blue denim and cost £10 in the sale reduced from £20 another River Island purchase.

This lovely pink blouse as many may recognise is from Zara and I got it in the sale for £29.99 which wasn't much cheaper then full price at £39.99 but I really like this and decided it was worth it. This is the first blouse I've bought that have the lovely collar studs which I have wanted for a while and I am tempted to try and replicate this myself on some of the blouses I already own. 
The very short shorts that I'm not 100% sure ill be wearing without a lot of gym sessions are another super saver River Island steal for £10 deduced from £40 so I couldn't say no. The gold studs were what caught my eye originally and I thought they would match the detail on the blouse perfectly.

I'm sorry to keep banging on about the leather jacket I bought from Zara a while ago (check it out here) but it seems to have started a love for leather that I never new I had. Last year I bought some rather expensive grey shorts from All Saints that I have to admit were a good investment but because I'm vain I don't really want to wear them for V again this year so I bought a good pair of black shorts instead. The shorts are slightly high waisted perfect for tucking in T-shirts and cost £7.50 reduced from £30.
The grey t-shirt was from International and was my free item in the sale, I'm not sure if ill go for this T-shirt or my grey spiked one from Zara (check it out here) with the shorts but I do like this kind of rock chick look.

Come rain or shine I will be going to V-festival but in the rare case it does rain in England I have purchased some classic skinny black jeans that I can wear with my black Hunters. I cant believe that I didn't own any black jeans and slightly glad that Jack Wills didn't have my size in when I went to purchase some from them for £50 last week as these only cost me £10 for my last River Island Super Saver item.

I hope you have enjoyed reading about my sale bargains and my planned outfits for V-festival, I will be doing a lengthy post on my antics and if you guys are interest Ill do another post about what I cant live without even when in a field.

Thanks

Warehouse Haul

Hi guys!

Simple question who doesn't like finding a bargain? I honestly think no one will answering that they don't. Well I think I found a really good one from Warehouse this week, yes Warehouse.

A few years ago I probably wouldn't even bother to look round Warehouse but these last few seasons I've been really impressed with their look.

On a previous blog post you will notice that I recently bought a lovely leather jacket form Zara and thought I needed, yes needed not wanted, a few shirts to go with it. That's when I stumbled across these lovely skirts from Warehouse on a blue cross sale event with 25% off.

Ill tell you the ticket prices as the offer may no longer be on. The skirts are £20 each as I also bought it in black and the t-shirt the was £18, If the t-shirt wasn't in the sale I don't think I would of purchased it at the price. However I love these together yes it may not be bright and summery but I think its very in keeping with the English weather. I like wearing this with either my Havaiana's or the nice black New Look pumps with the gold studs that you can't see on this picture.

I am usually a jeans or leggings wearer but I love the length of this skirt just skimming the floor and they are really stretchy and have the nice detail of the thick waist band.

Thanks for reading guys, Hope you liked my outfit

Afternoon Drinks Outfit

Afternoon drinks with the girls in this awful weather, what to wear what to wear??? So straight to my shop of the moment H & M im literately loving everything in there but this is what I choice for said occasion.


White Blouse with Gold Buttons £19.99
Blue Pants £12.99

I know that they do this blouse in black as well and its a very nice silk like material and unlike similar items in Primark the quality of this seem ten times better and is defiantly worth the next pennies. The blue pants even though they look like jeans at first glance they are from a very sheer feeling stretch fabric and just fitted perfect for me and ill defiantly be going back to see what other colours they had in these.

For the accessories I had a look around in the usual shops for a nice pair of brown boots but couldn't find any I liked in my price range so headed to Primark for a last minuet substitute. Even though they weren't what I had in mind they match the bag I'm going to use and the belt that I already have. I actually love these as they are quite summery without being a sandal.

Tan Primark Shoes £8

Primark Shoes

Even though I wasn't planning on buying any new jewellery for this outfit the lovely people at TopShop are having a mini sale and these caught my eye. What made it even better is they match a neckless I have from a very long time ago and when I got to the till they only charged my £3 bargain

TopShop Rings

A few pieces that I already own and wear all the time will also go well with this outfit. 

Guess Couture Watch £360 Available from Ernest Jones
Swarovski Crystal Stud Earring Angelic £59
Pandora Bracelet £40
Large Heart Charm £30
Small Heart Drop Charm £35
Tomas Sabo Pear Bracelet £29.95 


Hope you like my outfit and thanks for taking the time to look at my post ill post pictures of me wearing it ASAP
