Tie-dye All Star's

    Hey guys, 

I bought these babies in the renewal section in Topman in Oxford Street, i have never seen anything like it before and they only had the one pair and they were in my size! So i knew it had to be. Can't wait to wear these this summer with some ombred denim shorts. Let me know what you think of them.

Peace xxx

New jewellery - Sammy

Went out with a friend yesterday and picked up these jewellery pieces.

The gold rings were on sale in Dororthy Perkins for half price. They reminded me of the ASOS gold rings which I spoke of wanting in [this] post, and they were cheaper at £3.25. They're really plain so perfect for layering up with other bigger rings.

I needed some new silver studs, so I picked up these from a random jewellers. It was mix and match so I chose these two, the left a celtic type of pattern and the right a hamsa hand. Couldn't take a picture of these on as they're so small and I couldn't find my macro filters, so my camera wouldn't have picked them up. I love the fact they're so tiny, but have so much detail too.

OOTD: Tie-dye and leopard print

Got a new dress for a wedding reception in a New Look sale. This stood out so much, I've never seen anything like this in New Look and it was only £20. I got this leopard print blazer from Next to go with it. Although it clashes and has so much pattern, I really like this look.



Here's some tie-dye images sourced from Tumblr [ask for credit].

I love how tie-dye always comes out differently, different patterns and different shades of colour.

Tie-dye's really on trend right now, and I've wanted to tie-dye some plain white vests I have, as I have soo many and my outfits in the summer get boring sometimes and this type of dying looks nice, it'll liven up an outfit.

 As tie-dye is in with the 'hippy' style trend, I've rediscovered my love for toe rings and anklets. I've rummaged through my jewellery draw (yes, I have a draw...too much jewellery) and I found some silver and blue anklets and rings, but I'd love to get some more, especially like the one below.

New discoveries

I just discovered these on Clothes Encounters Youtube video. I think they is quite sexual and a more summery version of the Jeffrey Campbell Coltranes. I love the metal detailing and they are a lot cheaper at £39.

I obviously wont be wearing them ahaha but I can see them looking great on Sammy.

Here's a [link] to them

I want these sunglasses so so so so much. Just came across them on topman they are £14, which isnt too bad. You can also get them in navy.

OOTN: Prom - Matt

Hey guys,

These are just a few pictures of my outfit that i wore to my leavers prom. 

I went with the classic white tuxedo jacket because it was quite cheap and i knew that this was something i would definitely wear it again. I gave it my own style twist by wearing my Underground creepers which i think go perfectly with this outfit because the white soles match the white tuxedo jacket. 

Tuxedo Jacket -Next £75

Suit trousers - Topman £35

Bow tie - Moss Bro's £10

Earring - DIY

Shoes - Underground Creepers £90

Are UNIF's 'Hellbound' the new Jeffrey Campbell Lita?

source: misc [ask to be credited]

Hey guys.

Just came across these shoes, imediate response was that the big lacing on the front reminded me of a corset piercing which immediately put me off. They remind me of 90's grunge and could definitely see RiRi in a pair with a bomber jacket.  But they are growing on me and look exactly like the Jeffrey Campbell Lita apart from the more boxy heel and the higher platform. 

I think these may be a bit more challenging to walk in but i do think they are quite cool and definitely think they have the potential to be bigger than the JC Lita.

But ye, leave a comment letting me know what you think of them.

Peace guys.

Nail art

Here's some nail art photos I've found which I find so inspirational and love.

I think nail art can make such a difference to an outfit and almost act as an accessory itself.

ASOS jewellery lust list - Sammy

All of this simple jewellery from ASOS will be such good buys, as they'll never go out of fashion/ you'll never get sick of them and they'll go with EVERYTHING.

Really looking forward to in summer (if the British weather ever cheers up) being able to buy a nice pair of sandals and wear toe rings and anklets!

Jewellery can make such a difference to outfits, so here's some reasonably priced pieces from ASOS I'm wanting at the moment.

1. ASOS Marble Effect Ring - £8

2. ASOS 3 Pack Smooth Band Toe Rings - £5

3. ASOS Pack of Three Plain Band Rings - £8 

1. ASOS Spike Anklet - £6

2. ASOS Arrow Spike Anklet & Toe Chain - £10

3. ASOS Modern Armour Cuff - £15

4. ASOS Hammered Double Cuffs - £18

Thrifted Find

Hey guys,

I found this shirt in the charity shop today it sorta reminded me of the Hawaiian shirt that i wanted from RELIGION in a way, think it would look great tucked into denim cut offs or worn baggy and loose over some cycling shorts.

Peace xxxx 

OOTD: Oranges and lace

Lace top - My mum's from years ago | Gold chain - H&M | Beaded ring - Gift from abroad | Orange ring - Asos | Striped glass ring - Holiday | Bracelets - H&M | High waisted shorts - Next | Creepers - Asos [LINK]

Going away this weekend to see Plan B on his Forestry tour. As it's an outside gig I wanted to plan something summery to wear, even though knowing the British weather it will probably rain.

To match my creepers (my favourite shoes of the moment) I've added loads of orange accessories.

I may use Barry M lipstick in shade 151, a bright orange colour, to match as well. This use to be my favourite lipstick when going out, but now I prefer it for just everyday. It's different from the usual red lip and still looks as nice.
