ATTIRE - horizontal love


 i struggle to find playsuits which are an appropriate length. the majority bare your bum and are reduced to only holiday wear. thankfully this asos playsuit has met my needs - i'll be able to wear it in the uk without being questionned on its suitability! i like how the stripes are a beige/yellow against the harsh black, I think it is more subtle on my pale skin tone than contrasting black and white. i've popped on my neon pink heeled sandals to add colour to the outfit. i had these heels on my asos wishlist for weeks and weeks...and then they got reduced to less than half price! being a bright colour, i like to add them with various outfits to add a summer vibe.

ATTIRE - sailor


i'm on a hair-straightening-ban, so ignore the lack of hair effort. i feel I always fall into the trap of washing and straightening my hair daily resulting in a blonde, dry, frizz  ball. so i'm giving it a break for a while to help my must-wanted hair growth! if you follow my instagram you would these shorts previously, I picked them up bank holiday weekend from zara. i love the shape and material - they are tailored, high waisted and thick! unfortunately my bank account couldn't stretch far enough to include the matching blazer (but i'm hoping i'll be able to save up for it and grab it soon!) I'm not one for crop tops, i have the jersey ones but they aren't that flattering. this crop top is identical to the one stocked in topshop recently, yet i'm sure it was less than half the price. i bought both the white and black version of this crop top - but honestly, the white one will be ruined with fake tan instantly so i just stuck with the black one :) (btw these sandals are surgically attached to my feet, so expect them in the majority of my upcoming posts - sorry not sorry).

ATTIRE - leather and linen


it's true - i am naturally drawn to black and white clothing. any season, any weather, white and black pieces are my go-to. my zara skort (here) is way to big on me this year...meaning a new white skirt was necessary. i snapped this linen white skirt up from asos during their 20% discount, i'm pretty sure asos sizes are getting bigger and bigger...i got a 6...which is still loose?! so definitely size down. anyway,  i'm trying to save this skirt for my holidays (in less than 3 weeks!) to avoid any marks! I've worn my dorothy perkins leather top and trusty cobalt sandals :)
