My Bandage Dress Favs! | OOTD
Hello dolls!
Just a quick one today to share one of my new favourite brands with you all!
Sometimes I find it can be hard to find flattering, figure hugging dresses/outfits that don't accentuate all the wrong places. Even though I may not be the biggest girl I'm not the smallest either ..I was blessed (cursed?) with big boobs, hips and bum so tight clothing can sometimes look quite unflattering on me which makes me sad as I'm a sucker for bandage/bodycon dresses and co-ords.
After almost giving up hope in finding a bandage outfit I felt made me look good, I came across My Bandage Dress on Instagram. After reading good reviews from happy customers I paid their website a visit.
I found the My Bandage Dress website to have a wide variety of styles and colours so I felt spoiled for choice. I finally settled on a white Bianca skirt even though I could have happily ordered one of everything from the site!
When it arrived I couldn't get it on quick enough! And to my surprise it fit PERFECTLY! Of course then I had to purchase the matching Milly crop top to complete the outfit which also fit beautifully!
The sizing can be a tad confusing as it's in XS/S/M/L rather than numbers. Just for reference I ordered S in both the skirt and top as I'm normally an 8 and these both fit fine.
I really cannot recommend MBD enough. So much so I've already ordered a second Bianca skirt!
Bianca skirt in white S £24.99
Milly crop top in white S £21.99
Both from www.mybandagedress.com

OOTD | Weekend Chic
Weekends for most of us mean chilling, shopping and last minute plans with friends, but how do you plan an outfit for unknown plans?
Now that spring is making an appearance and those cold, dark days are a thing of the past us girls can finally break open our spring wardrobes with a mix of pastel and nude shades and a hint of monochrome.
For my spring weekend look I have chosen a casual monochrome look that can be dressed up or down – especially handy for last minute plans.
Jeans are a staple of any wardrobe, are versatile and can be dressed up or down to suit an occasion. I chose Miss Selfridge high waisted acid wash jeans for this look.
Cami tops are also extremely versatile and are perfect for a ‘last minute’ outfit. I actually own about 15 different cami’s in a range of colours because I just love how adaptable they are, whether wearing with jeans for an everyday look or with a pencil skirt and strappy heels for a sophisticated evening look.
Blazers are great for a slightly dressy everyday style or a day-to-night look. They make a great alternative to a coat or cardigan and are perfect for spring days and summer evenings when it gets a tad chilly.
As for shoes a may be a little biased here – I have a boots obsession so all I tend to wear is boots as I have so many pairs I can always find a pair to match my outfits. I would definitely recommend investing in some cute boots for spring.
Accessories can make or break an outfit. No accessories can make an outfit look plain and lacking personality and too many can make an outfit look like it’s been in a bitch fight with Claire’s Accessories (although don’t get me wrong Claire’s Accessories has some cute stuff!) I added a classic monochrome checked scarf to my outfit to compliment the black cami and white blazer as well as my fav Michael Kors rose gold watch and a large black handbag to keep my essentials (basically everything but the kitchen sink) in.
So there you have it – my take on a classic weekend ensemble!
Jeans: Miss Selfridge acid wash high waisted jeans £40
Cami Top: Boohoo £15
Blazer: Definitions for Very £35
Boots: Primark £18
Scarf: Primark £6
Bag: River Island £45
Have a great weekend dolls! <3

#PDBAE Quin boots
Every girl loves coming home to a parcel, especially if it's full of clothes or shoes and today was one if those days for me!
I have always been a fan of the online shoe store 'Public Desire' and tend to find myself lusting over every pair on the site. The only downside is when it comes to choosing a pair ..it's impossible!
During the autumn and winter months I have found myself obsessing over ankle boots as they are the perfect accessory and have been wanting to add a PD pair to my collection for weeks ..but which pair do I choose out of what seems like hundreds of beautiful boots?
Eventually I narrowed my choices down to two pairs ..'Quin' and 'Alegra' ..both in black suede. After what seemed like hours of decisions I finally made my choice! I had to go with the gorgeous Quin boots as they had a smaller heel (better for everyday wear) and were available in a size 3 for my teeny little feet!
Delivery was fast and the boots fit perfectly! I tend to find the range of shoes PD offer come up slightly big in size for me so if you're in between sizes go for the smaller for a perfect fit.
Overall I am super happy with my new boots and will be returning for more very very soon!
Quin Boots: £27.99 from publicdesire.co.uk

#PrimarkSpring15
The last few days have been freezing in England and there's only so many ways to cheer a girl up (that doesn't involve a small fortune) and one of those is looking at next years spring collections!
My favourite collection I have seen so far happens to be from Primark! Although 98% of people seem to have this perception that Primark is tacky and poor quality clothes I believe they have really upped their game for the 2015 spring range.
There's a mix of pastel, floral and bold prints that work in perfect harmony and will ensure there is never a dull day in your wardrobe!
And the shoes ..are just on a whole new level! The prints and shoe styles are bang on trend for the '15 spring season giving classic styles a new lease of life.
Of course any outfit needs an essential staple ..THE bag! Primark's new season bags certainly don't disappoint. From glamorous totes to fruity clutch bags they literally have every bag lover covered!
There is a huge hype on twitter and Instagram after the press day but there is not yet an office all date when all of these lovely goodies will be in stores! Get your bank cards ready girls...
For more pictures and info I would recommend Primark's Twitter, insta and blog pages. Feast your eyes on what spring 2015 has to offer!

Pretty in pink.. Boohoo style!
So first of all I would like to apologise for the lack of posts recently ..sometimes life catches up with you all at once but I'm back in the game and what better way to cheer a girl up than a delivery from the fabulous Boohoo.com!
Over the festive season sometimes it can feel like you need to buy 100 dresses for all of the dinners, parties, work do's and more! With all your money usually being spent on Christmas presents and cheesy jumpers where will you find the time and money to find some killer outfits that won't cost the earth? Boohoo duh!
My most recent purchase was a beautiful cerise pink off the shoulder dress in a simple yet sassy style! The colour would compliment almost any hair colour and skin tone and if pink really isn't your thing then they also do it in black!
Dress: Boohoo.com £15
Shoes: shusole £14.99

Complex Apparel ft Illamasqua Vampette
As you guys may already know, I love up and coming businesses that sell anything from clothes to beauty products so I thought I would take the chance to share another of my favourites with you all!
I found Complex Apparel on Instagram after seeing one of the girls I follow in one of their logo tees and thought ..I need one! I mean, who wants to look all girly all the time anyway?
I purchased one of the white logo tees and it arrived literally in a day the delivery was so fast! These t shirts are literally the most comfy tees ever and can be dressed up or down whatever the weather. I've worn mine with ripped black skinny jeans (Missguided) or with a skater skirt, leather jacket, black tights, boots and some killer gold bling.

Also featured in this post is my amazing new Illamasqua Vampette from the Glamore Extension Collection but it's literally so amazing it's earned it's own post! Watch this space for that one dolls!

Lilac loving - ft. Boohoo & ShuSole
Hey dolls!
As I haven't done any outfit posts yet I would love to start with a favourite of mine right now I wore to my friends birthday night out on Saturday - this is the perfect combo for those girly nights out!
The dress - from Boohoo.com. As I have lilac hair at the moment I really wanted a dress to match for this special occasion and the 'Cece' plunge bandage bodycon dress fit the bill perfectly! The bandage style helps give curves in all the right places and the deep plunge shows off everything else. Even if your chest isn't as impressive as you would like it to be, contouring with a little bit of bronzer can be the answer to making the most of your assets. This perfect party girl dress - £15
The shoes - from shusole.co.uk. I have a huge crush on cleated heels right now as I've always preferred chunky shoes to painfully thin stilettos so these black beauties from Shusole are like a dream come true! They come in range on colours but I would suggest buying a size smaller as they come up a little bigger. A total steal at £20!
The hair - see my previous post as to how I get my hair lilac!
Feel free to ask questions below 💜 PEACE ✌️
