Starry Eyes



This summer is all about boyfriend t-shirts for me. I love anything that is slouchy and comfortable. This outfit is based around two things that I'm loving at the moment, and its this star printed t-shirt and my new black heels. 





We are having an amazing summer for a change here in the UK and you know what that means?? SHOPPING and more SHOPPING!! This star printed t-shirt is one of my recent buys and I can never say no to a cheap buy. At £3.99 from Zara this was just that:-)





T-shirt - Zara
Jeans - Gap
Necklace - Primark
Sandals - Zara
Bag - E-bay

(T-shirt, jeans and sandals are all sold out on the Zara website and other items are a bit old so I can't seem to find any links. Sorry!)

Green with Envy.




I am absolutely loving the summer's ultimate printed trousers at the moment. Picked these trousers up because I fell in love with them the moment I lay my eyes on them. These trousers are a rare find for me because most of the time I struggle with finding trousers that fit me properly.






  
Instead of going for colored shirt I opted for this white shirt to draw more attention to the beautiful print on the trousers. The Brown heeled sandals are my most recent purchase and I have not let them off my feet lately.

Birds and the flowers and a little bit of sunshine

It's been too long since I last blogged but I can't seem to find the time and if and when I do, I just don't seem to have the energy. This can only get worse next month because I'm starting a new job!!!!! I'm so excited. I'm going to be training for the first two weeks of September and then I'm going to be traveling quite a lot so how I'm going to find the time to blog is beyond me. 

Trying to catch up on lots of things this month before I start my new job. Spend as much time with the boys, find a nursery for my son, finish all the bits and bobs I started around the house that I never finish, catch up with my blogging and I'm still working because I don't leave my current job till the end of this month. 

Moving on to the outfit, I have wanted this dress ever since I saw it in Zara in the beginning of spring, but it was £49.99 (i think) so I didn't really want to buy it then and when I was ready it was transferred off to a another store. So I never got around to buying it, until I saw it in the sale last month for only £17.99!!! 

It's such a pretty dress. I have wanted to have a pretty cut out dress for ages but never found the right dress. I am a bit picky about what bits the cut outs going to be showing off. Since having my son, I have quite a few stretch marks on my tummy area, so I never found the right dress until this baby came around. I have a wedding next month so this dress will be perfect for that.








 The print is so summery and the cut of this dress is so flattering. As you can see the cut out is very safe and doesn't show off too much flesh and the back of the dress is just a plain high neck back. It's so comfortable to wear. The only thing I am not too happy with is the length if the dress. It's a little bit too long, I'm 5 7' and as you can see even with the wedges it's touching the floor. I was actually hoping to wear this dress with a pair of flat sandals after the wedding, but unless I get it shortened I don't think that will be possible.





 Dress - Zara
Necklace -H&M
Shoes - Primark 

I wanted to keep the styling of this dress very simple, plus with a dress this pretty you don't need to do much styling anyway.

What do you think about this dress?? Are a fan of the cut out dress trend??

Hot Summer Days

Today's post is about a outfit I wore to a small garden party. I was so tempted to just go in a pair of shorts and a vest top because it was so so warm but it was a special occasion so I had to make an effort ( at least pretend)

Got this Topshop dress last year in the sale but I never got around to wear it. It actually came with a little black lace cropped top that you put over the dress but since it was way too hot I thought I'll lose that bit. 









I have used these sandals so much this summer. Worn them with jeans, skirts shorts and dresses they go with everything and so comfortable. Sometimes I forget I even have then on because they are so lightweight. I just hope this weather is here to stay because I can wear these more often because I absolutely love them






Dress- Topshop (old)
Long necklace - Miss Selfridge
Short Necklace - Accessorize
Shoes - Primark

If you live in the UK, are you loving this weather??  What do you think about this outfit? what do you consider when dressing for warm weather?

A different sort of post

It's the last day of my week off. Can't believe it's gone so fast and I could not have picked a better week. Today's post is a bit different (why not??) I don't want to turn this blog into a lifestyle blog but thought it'll be nice to include this really nice place I went to along with the outfit pictures. 

I really wanted to take some proper outfit pictures but it was so so warm that all three of us were very hot and bothered, so the pictures are not great which is why I can't really do a full outfit post. Hence the reason I wanted include couple of pictures of the park we went to.

The only reason I like living in Derbyshire is because of the really nice places around. If you follow me Instagram you must have seen more pictures. But this Park has to be one of my favorite places I have visited in Derbyshire. 

My outfit for the occasion was pretty much what I could easily grab out of my wardrobe. I wore this Topshop skirt here when the weather was much colder so it was nice to just wear it with a simple vest top and sandals. It is a bit short for a skirt because every time I bend down to carry my son I was told that I revealed a bit too much by my husband :-) But I love this skirt, it's a bit high waisted and really comfortable to wear.






Sorry the pictures look almost the same with no close up's or anything but the weather is to blame:)

Top- Bershka (old)
Skirt - Topshop
Satchel - Primark
Sandals - H&M

So a bit about the place...

River Gardens in Belper is not a massive Park compared to all the parks around the area but it's one of those places that you will fall in love with instantly. Last time I was there it was much less crowded, which is when I took the pictures of the park it self but my outfit pictures are from yesterday when it was so chaotic, there were kids running,  a little festival and then there were loads of wedding parties taking pictures. So considering the place is not big it was difficult to enjoy the lovely surrounding.









This is my first post that I have done a bit differently, I never really wanted to include anything lifestyle on here as I only wanted fashion related posts on my blog. So, Let me know what you think!!
