Simple, but effective.

Body: American Apparel
Skirt: Urban Outfitters
Belt: Primark
Shoes: Office

This outfit is so simple. Literally a long skirt, body and heels. I love it. I really like simple outfits as I think they stand out in a positive way. I find a lot of the time I suffer from 'cba' syndrome and don't like to spend ages getting ready and making too much of an effort, especially if I am going somewhere new and I'm not sure what people will be wearing. This outfit can appear casual but also a little dressy, so it's perfect for somewhere new. I'm loving bodies at the moment as well, I have so many different ones so expect to see some more in my next couple of posts!

and everything was gold.

Crop top: American Apparel
Disco pants: American Apparel
Converse: Via Office

I'm still in love with disco pants! I decided to splurge and buy American Apparel disco pants rather than a cheaper pair this time. I fancied another pair and decided it would be a good purchase with my student loan that had just arrived in the bank. I went for a gold pair this time as I wanted them to stand out more than my blue ones. They're so comfy and super flattering as well. I teamed them up with a white crop top and converse as it was a little chilly outside but still nice and sunny. I felt a little more interesting then usual.

How Vintage.

Denim Jacket: Hardwear via eBay
Dress: Topshop (old.)
Sandals: Jones

One of the best things about being home over Summer is taking full advantage of my friend and getting her to model for me. I truly hate having my photo taken as I'm so unphotogenic. So before I head back to uni, I'm using my friend as my model. Hope you guys don't mind!! 

This outfit is rather simple, sandals, dress and a jacket. The jacket and the dress are both vintage, I found the dress in a local charity shop. I've not been in a charity shop for a while because I find I have to be in a certain mood to go searching through the mounds of bad outfits before I find one good thing, but this dress has reminded me of the bargains you can find, so I may have a little hunt soon. 

Band Of The Week #3 -Eddi Front.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ekk7tHdsQDQ

Eddi Front armed with only a piano and her voice leads you into a beautiful world of calm. Her echoing and ghostly talent, removes you from an everyday world and solely into her songs. 'Texas' her second, self-released single which came out this month joins her haunting vocals and creaking melody lingering moments before fading into her delicate world. 

Look out for Eddi as there are rumours she'll be returning to the UK very soon.

Student Nights.

Body: American Apparel
Belt: Charity Shop
Skirt: River Island
Heels: Topshop

So it was a student night in my local nightclub the other night so I went out with a few friends. It's so nice now I've finished work because now I can see everyone. I love this body, it's backless and and makes a general plain skirt a really interesting outfit. I found I had a lot of compliments on how I was dressed that night I went out. I added the belt just to section the skirt and body off a bit, I wasn't too keen on the outfit without the belt.  It's a very simple skirt and body combo, but due to the colours and pattern of the body it looks a lot more interesting, and it's also equally as nice from behind because of the open back.  

Festival Buzz

Socks: Primark
Boots: Hunter Via Office

It's time for Bestival Festival, My friend Sophie (pictured) is heading off to Bestival for a weekend full of crazy antics, and decided she wanted to borrow some of my clothes for the weekend. So I decided favour for a favour, I'd take a few photos of her in my outfits for the blog, she added the second headband and the bumbag which she picked up in a market she visited whilst she was travelling in Peru. The outfits are quite light so perfect for a festival especially as its looking like its going to be sunny, but we added a jacket and the fur sole to the second outfit for when it gets slightly colder in the night.

St Tropz

Pre Fake Tan

Post Fake Tan

So I decided to try out a fake tan, I'm very fair skinned and decided as it's summer it would be nice to have a slightly bronzed look. I googled a lot of different reviews for different products and decided to go for the St Tropez spray tan. I took the photos outside so you could see the colour in the natural light. I did it myself and it did turn out really well, it's not too dark or orange so it looks more natural, although it is darker in real life compared to the photo. It came out really well on my stomach its a little dodgy on my arms and legs, but it's mainly in the hard to reach areas, so keeping this in mind I would suggest having someone to spray you, rather than attempting it yourself in order to get a flawless look. 

New Dress.

Dress:Topshop
Ring:Topshop
Silver hoop earings: eBay

Today was so hot!! And luckily my new dress arrived from Topshop. Its a plain t-shirt dress, I originally wanted it in grey but I saw this one in the petite section and decided to go for that, as it would fit my body a little better. It's so hard buying dresses and skirts when you're only 5'2" because everything is just far too long. This dress is really comfortable and the perfect length/size. I'm really happy with it, and to top it off, it was only £25. An absolute bargain for Topshop.

I teamed the dress with a pair of sandals because it was so nice today, but when it gets a little colder, I plan on pairing it with tights, boots and a leather jacket, so stay tuned for that little outfit.

Band of the week #2 -Deap Vally.

Deap Valley

Hell raising California girls, Lindsey troy and Julie Edwards, strip music down to its simplest and most fundamental form: beat, melody and meaning. 

Think Alison Mosshart from bands, The Kills and Dead Weather mixed with Seasick Steve. The wailing LA blues licks, riffs and primal howls of Gonna Make My Own Money, designed from years of cruising the LA rock scene, has earned them gigs with The Eagles of Death Metal.  

Definitely a duo to look out for.
