NEW BLOG!

Hey guys!

I recently decided to move my blog over to Wordpress, I find it is a lot more user friendly and I wanted a fresh start!
I lost motivation on this blog, mainly because I wasn't sure where it was going!

I have been working on my new blog for a little while and I finally feel that motivation again!

I wont be deleting this blog, as it is something to look back on, but I wont be posting here anymore.

If you would like to continue reading my blog I will leave the link here for you to check it out!

Here's to a new chapter!!

Trend Spotting: Embroidered Jeans

In the sixties jeans underwent a make-over by university and college students, when they began adding patches and embroidery work to their denim.

This style was seen a few times since the 60s but this year they have come back with a bang!

High street brands such as Topshop and Zara have many styles of embroidered jeans in there Spring/Summer 2017 collections, ranging in colour, size and design!

Not only have they different styles of embroidery, they also used the technique on different style of jeans, from skinny to mom jeans!

Although this style of jean wouldn't be considered capsule wardrobe material, they would make for a cute Spring/Summer staple!

Sailor Saturday!

I recently purchased this gorgeous leather jacket from Zara, I've had my eye on it since they released their Spring/Summer 17 collection!

I always wear black, but recently I felt I needed to add some colour variety to my coats/jackets, so a white leather jacket is definitely a change!

I decided to go down the monochrome path and paired the jacket with this black and white striped top, black jeans and plain black boots!

Graduation Look Ft. Fanny Crown

Hey Everyone, Today I have a graduation inspired look, I know a lot of you maybe going to graduations this year or you may have already gone, but I thought this post might have some inspiration for those of you who may not have gone yet or who have your graduation next year.
This look was created for a dress I picked from the Fanny Crown website.
Fanny Crown is an online dress store, who cater for weddings, proms and more, Not only do they offer ready to wear dresses but they also offer a tailor made service and ship world wide. Fanny Crown really have something for everyone, whether you want elegant, edgy, simple they have everything! When I was going through the website I loved every minute of it, it was so easy to explore and they even have it sectioned so you can narrow your search quicker. They have amazing dresses and I just couldn't choose which one to create this graduation look for, but this A-line dress stood out a mile to me with its empire waist line and its edgy yet elegant detailing on the bodice. One detail of the dress that took me by surprise was its removable skirt, this just made the dress even better that you can take off the skirt and just a have beautifully detailed body hugging dress. Now I am going to show you what I paired with this dress,

1. Natural smokey eye

I picked a natural smokey eye because I wanted to keep the face bright and natural because the dress is a dark colour. This look is easy to create and can be finished off with a simple cat eye flick.

2. Pink Lips

For the lips I picked Pink Pearl Pop by M.A.C I thought this shade was perfect to add a bit of colour to the look.

3.Hairstyle

For the hair I wanted to give it a bit of an edgy look so I went with a messy pinup, this looks is cute and not to old for a graduation look, it is also quite easy to manage.

4.Shoes

For the shoes I went with a pair of snake textured platform sandal from River Island, I thought these shoes were perfect because they are elegant but again have that edgy look that I want to keep.

5. Bag

For the bag I picked a cut work design clutch from TopShop, again this is quite edgy but not too over the top.

6. Jewellery

For the Jewellery I picked a matching bracelet and necklace from River Island, I just loved the twisted mixed metal look and I thought the gold and silver would help bring out the golden beige within the dress.

That is my completed Graduation look, I hope you all enjoyed reading, leave a comment and let me know what you think of how you would style it I always love to hear other peoples opinions!
If you are going to a graduation or even a wedding I would definitely suggest you check out the Fanny Crown website, the dresses are amazing!

Thank you for reading

Love
