Treating Myself to Choo

I may have bought myself something quite pricey. Something I wouldn't usually purchase myself, or be able to justify normally. However, sometimes it's okay to treat yourself, and every time I now look at this purchase I think "yes girl, you're awesome" and I feel like a girl boss. So let me explain why...

The Perfect Accessory

You may have seen my very first Wednesday Wishlist (here) featured items from Vero Moda that I was coveting.. When I then went to buy a few of their products next pay day I was devastated to find most were now sold out - except this little beauty :)

skirt VERO MODA

shoes NEW LOOK

necklace LOLA ROSE

I love this skirt, it has a really subtle waterfall effect (so subtle you can't really see it in these photos) but it is there I promise! It's really flattering and I love high waist bottoms as they nip in at my waist and make me look like I have slim one.

This is probably my favourite top. I LOVE the colour and the pattern and just the general style of it. It's so flattering and can either be dressed up for a night out or down with some jeans.

These are my goooorgeous new New Look boots. I have been after some lace up boots like this forever and I originally wanted these for work - but as you can see they are incredibly high and I can't quite see myself walking to work in these... can you say broken ankle and blistered balls of feet? 

My chosen necklace? You guessed it.. Lola Rose. I'm a navy lover and this was my first Lola Rose necklace and one of my faves :)

Now... I would like to introduce: the PERFECT accessory...

Everyone meet my GORGEOUS 8 week old cockapoo puppy, Arthur :) he is adorable and very naughty but I still love him so :)

I dare you to find a better accessory....

Ways to Waterfall

It seems my sending has gotten a bit out of hand lately! However, I will defend buying this next item until the end of time because I have fallen completely in love with it.

You know one of those dresses that you put on in the changing room and just sigh and think "O crap now I have to buy it..." Well, this is that dress.

Dress New Look

Shoes New Look (Andra's Wardrobe)

Necklace Lola Rose

Bracelet Lola Rose

Nails Estee Lauder Teal Topaz

I have completely bought into the waterfall trend. I think its just a ladylike trend and it's just so pretty! I love the colours in this dress, they are really bring and help to brighten up the black. It comes in at the waist (which I'm a bit fan of) and skims over your bum and legs.

The top of the dress is actually see-through so you do have to wear a black vest underneath (unless you're braver then me and want to expose your underwear!), it does have a slip under the skirt... but not a very long one!

I wore this beauty to my Pappy's 80th Birthday party (that's Granddad or Grandpa to normal people) and I got so many compliments for it :) It's definitely become a staple in my wardrobe for the summer.

This dress is actually in their sale now for £11! So I'd snap it up while you can here

The jewellery (you've probably predicted) is from my trusty Lola Rose collection. I LOVE the colour of these bits, so summery and they go perfectly with this dress. The nails as Estee Lauder in Teal Topaz to match the jewellery with a varnish from my Mum's magic colouring box! (Become one of my fave shades for the summer... If it ever arrives!)

The shoes I stole from Andra's wardrobe (again) and were SO comfortable, the balls of my feet didn't even hurt by the end of the night - which is saying something as there was a disco with classics such as 5,6,7,8 and Saturday Night! You can't get them in this colour anymore but take a look here for the colours you can get :)

Have you tried a waterfall outfit yet?

Raining Florals

I refuse to conform to the current ever changing weather - it IS spring and I WILL dress for Spring. 

So today when I was deciding what to wear for work I came across this little beauty that I forgot I had...

Absolutely LOVE this skirt and so glad I discovered it in my wardrobe! It is very spring/summery but pop it with some tights and a jumper and it'll match our current weather...

Also match it with some ankle boots and you're set! I love these boots - fantastic little find when I was browsing through Commercial Road at University once...

Shirt: Topshop

Skirt: Topshop

Boots: Dorothy Perkins

I love florals and a skirt/blouse so this is the perfect 'Lisa' outfit!

What's your Mid-Season look?

Slate & Lace

Here is my little outfit I wore for a night out for my friends 21st on Good Friday. I absolutely loved it and it's so different to what I usually wear out - standard is usually black bodycon skirt and a nice top.

I really liked this outfit, was so comfortable and stylish, and also really cute thanks to Andra's top I stole (hmm may not give it back...) Add some trust Lola Rose and we're in business! Was really comfortable to dance in and surprisingly so were the shoes... My GORGEOUS new Miss Selfridge shoes!

Let me know what you think :)

Top: Topshop (Andra's wardrobe...)

What's your Friday night outfit?

Outfit: Gunwharf Nauticalia

On Sunday I went down to Gunwharf to be the boys personal shopper and I didn't spend a thing! While we were down there we also had a spot of lunch in the gorgeous sun at Zizzi! 

This is what I wore

Blazer: H&M

Dress: Topshop

Necklace: Accessorize

Earring: Accessorize

Heels: New Look

Nail Varnish: Chanel 'Lotus Rouge'

I absolutely love this dress. It is so cute and completely made for a gorgeous spring day down at Gunwharf - definitely keeping with the Nautical theme which I love! The blazer matches perfectly with the nails showing the team GB spirit!

It was a lovely day out !

Hope you had an amazing weekend - how did you enjoy the sun?
