Outfits of the Week


Hi Guys,

Just a few more outfit of the days - even though it's not super hot anymore it's still dress down at work (tomorrow will be the start of week 3 of dress down - I feel like a student again!).

First up - what a horrid look - literally my face is urgh! But oh well. I'm wearing my newlook inspire neon heart t shirt with my dorothy perkins light bleach eden jeggings. Got some old primark gladiator white and gold sandals on my feet and my new favourite bag. I think this was the most casual I've ever been apart from pj's, 

I really like this outfit - I'm wearing denim so it is dress down but I'm also wearing a lace peplum top so I still feel like 'me'. The jeans are from Very and top is from asos curve (£12.50 in the sale). Paired with nude primark ballet pumps and my new favourite bag again. 

I also liked this outfit; it was really comfortable but still quite 'nice'. Grey skinnies from Very, black dip hem t shirt from Very, red shoes from Zara. 

Here's a close up of my two new favourite items - both gifted by my mummy.

Light tan bag from accessorise - rrp £40 but my mum got it for £6!!!When she gave me this I really didn't like it but once I carried it I haven't switched out bags since.

Red stud shoes with cut out sides and ankle strap (squashed under bag) - what's not to love? Zara and my mum got them for £7.99 in the sale!!!!!!!!!

This is me doing casual bling lol Converse (omg these need their own post!), eden jeans and an oversized t shirt from asos with giant sparkly gems on the shoulders.


Images above and below same OOTD (obviously) - This is my go to when it's over 24 degrees. I know it looks like a lot of black but I can't be wearing hot pants so I like this. Black maxi skirt with slit from Primark, top from H&M (I think it was £3!) and my old primark sandals. 



And I end this post with a boring shot of my primark nude pumps (£4) - I love them.

I'm trying hard not to buy 13442 pairs.

Dorothy Perkins Haul - Pt 1: Jeans

At last! Sorry it took so long, but here's the stuff I got from Dorothy Perkins online that I had all the trouble receiving. And the wait wasn't even worth it because I think (still not sure) I'm returning it all.

In return for your patience I've taken quite a few pics. Unfortunately lighting is bad so you can't really make out any detail but just take my word for it, nothing to get excited about!!!

Forgive my appearance, I'm in my pyjama top and I haven't brushed my hair for 4 days haha I did put make up on though :)

I'm doing this blog in 3 parts: Jeans, Coats and then Hat.

I brought 5 pairs of jeans altogether, but duplicate styles in different sizes. So these pictures are of 2 jeans. Shockingly (in the best way) all five jeans were toooooo big (YAAAAAAAAY) but I'm considering keeping these two, or at least one, as an emergency pair.

I'm not even sure which jean is which. One is super skinny, and one is super skinny pleat (which is the reference to the pocket i think). One is definitely black, the other is....either black or really really really really really dark indigo.

You've seen pictures of me in my skinny jeans (or you've seen me if you know me!) and you know I wear them tight. So tight I can't keep my little vaseline in my back pocket. So tight that I can't sit down on the bus. So tight that I'm splitting out of them hence this mad desperation for skinny jeans!!! lol

Well, the two jean's pictured have two problems. Even though they are 'short' they are not short enough for me. And even though they are skinny, they are not skinny enough for me. The leg is bagy because it hits me in the wrong spot, but even generally they are really big. I've never had a pair of jeans that I could tuck my top into (not that I'd be brave enough to rock this on street, tuckage is for blog photo only!).


But look how stretchy they are! I can actually move my leg!!!!!


Check out my BULGE!!!!!!! LOL And that's not even all the extra length. Not cool. And I've got the jeans pulled up to under my bra. Not cool!



What if I roll them up? Quite cool for spring/summer/autumn. Crap for winter.

(that white string thing is the price tag btw)

So.....what do I do? I'm not sure if these jeans are practical. It's all good prancing and posing in my living room, but on the street I imagine that I'd be hitching them up all them time (even with a belt). It is nice to have jeans that don't cut off my circulation though......

Tell me what you think below!

Cheers :)
