Haul

I went shopping yet again, supposed to be going shopping for Ibiza ended in I'll buy everything I like. 

I didn't go as crazy as I thought I would... I really need to save money for Ibiza on Monday. 

I first started off in Topshop, an absolute must. 

I was a little bit hasty at buying these because of the price tag, but everyone raves about them and I fell in love with them on, so it was then impossible for me to leave without them in my hand. 

Topshop Jamie High Waisted Jeans 

I was on the search for a pair of ripped white jeans but I wasn't having much luck until I came across this pair in Topshop. I am really fussy with jeans, as I don't really wear them a lot. I find them really restricting and un comfy. I honestly feel the complete opposite about these, they don't become baggy at the bottom, they don't fall down when I walk, to me they are my key points I look for in a pair of jeans. 

I will definitely be purchasing these in other colours. They are priced at £42 which is a lot of money but totally worth it for the quality. Also don't forget all you students out there like me can get a discount, bringing them down to £37!! 

I paired my jeans with a Topshop stripped top with a white collar, my Topshop hat & shoes. Bag from Boohoo. This is a perfect summer outfit, ideal for a picnic. 

This little top is so cute, I love the bow at the back it makes your outfit instantly more girly.

My bag was featured in a previous blog post, but I wanted to show it closer up so you can all capture its full beauty. I just wish it was slightly bigger, however in the summer it's nice to have a small bag so you're not lugging around a heavy jam packed handbag. 

The jeans can also be worn for a night out. 

Tee- New Look 

Shoes- New Look

Bag- Select 

It is so easy to pair jeans with different clothing to make them day and night. White jeans look perfect matched with heels for a night out with the girls. I paired mine with my favourite slogan tee and monochrome clutch bag. I love this outfit because it is casual and comfortable yet suitable for a night out. 

Bag- Select 

Rings - Topshop

Bodysuit - Miss Selfridge

Skirt - Topshop

Shoes - New Look

I have been looking for a skirt like this too wear to Bloggers Fashion Week on 25th August. I knew I wanted a Midi skirt, but style, pattern was another matter. Then this one just happened to be in topshop, the last one in my size. I call it fate. 

So I have the skirt sorted for Fashion Week now I need the rest of my outfit... more shopping ;) 

I then popped into Primark to get some a swimming costume for ibiza when my sister pointed this flower garland out to me.. so I blame her entirely for this purchase. 

But it went perfectly with the new swimming costume I bought, creating a perfect Ibiza outfit. 

Hope you enjoyed coming shopping with me. 

Looking forward to blogging all my Ibiza outfits for you when I'm home

Chi Chi Shoot.

I have a different type of blog for you all today. As I have mentioned before I am working with studio one to complete my university work placement. I was lucky enough to be part of the shoot with Chi Chi clothing who are based in London. It is a small online based company selling affordable evening dresses.

It was an amazing experience, getting to see everything that goes on behind the scenes at the shoot. So I thought I would give to a little sneak peak at some of the glamorous dresses which are being released to the public within the next couple of weeks. The dresses are all unique and simple but each one was slightly different. We were shooting the lookbook for their Autumn/Winter 2014 collection, made up of maxi and short cocktail dresses.

The shoot in total took, from 8am and wrapped up at 6pm.. it was an extremely long and tiring day. It was like me trying to find an outfit every morning, the two models Danielle and Rachel running around getting the dress on, dress off,.. shoes, accessories everywhere. 

As I was there to be a photographers assistant, I mainly helped with the lighting and editing, but I was secretly in heaven being surrounded by hair and make up stylists, clothes stylists. It was a dream come true. 

I can honestly say I have my eye on a few dresses in the collection that I will be keeping my eye on and definitely will be purchased when they come online. There is something in the collection for everyone with perfect colours for autumn/winter. 

So everyone please go head over to http://www.chichiclothing.com/?siteID=lbHlpxiEbDY-cgNVD2f40eB.rA10bwJ.kg if you have an event coming up. 

Missguided Monochrome

I cannot express my love of monochrome enough.. it's got to the stage now where I own zero colour clothes. My wardrobe looks as if colour was never invented, or my eye sight has become black and white. 

When I go shopping I don't purposely not pick up anything colourful, I am just attracted more to the blacks and whites. It's so easy to style just two colours, being so easy to just throw something on in a rush and it looking moderately okay.. without thousands of colours clashing. 

I know, it's summer right now and everything to do with summer is colourful but I won't be straying away from monochrome. I know some people will be thinking your mental wearing black in the summer,... Which I probably am. I'll have to stock up on whites, walking around like an angel for the whole summer. 

As I was on a mission for some summer clothes, I looked on Missguided as they have some amazing summer items for such affordable prices. There basic tops and skirts are so easy to pair together for a perfect summers outfit. 

Here are a few of there monochrome outfits I fell in love with, and hopefully all you monochrome lovers out there will love them as much as me.

As you can probably tell, I get a bit carried away with online shopping. Don't worry I didn't buy everything, even though the temptation was there... the money wasn't. But thank-you Missguided for creating such fabulous outfits.

My favourite outfits out off all of them are 3, 4, and 10, so I definitely had to purchase a few things from them.
