Best of the best #4: My favourite heels



This should really be a wish list post as I want everything on here! I think everything here is under £25 too which is a bonus!

1) Matalan Studded Wedges // 2) eBay Cut Out Heels // 3) Primark Printed Cork Heels // 4) eBay Wooden Heels // 5) Matalan Wooden Platform Heels // 6) eBay White Buckle Sandal Heels

My internet's not been too good for the last few days, so I'm struggling to actually get some good posts up but please bare with me! Hopefully, when it's better I'll put the links up for the items. Anyway... on to the shoes, I love the cut out detail on pair number 2, I think the design is brilliant and simple. I'm forever seeing everyone in the number 4 heels and I really like them too, but I think my favourite pairs out of them all are number 3 because of the colour and print and number 6 because of the caged buckle design. Number 6 comes in three colours too I think and I found it hard to choose between the black and the white, but I picked white in the end because it's lighter for summer but I think black is really the safer and better option as they won't look as dirty when worn a few times and will be a whole lot easier to match with outfits.

Do any of these take your fancy?

#10 New In: Holiday/Sale Haul: Part 2: Shoes & Accessories: Dorothy Perkins, Primark, Topshop, River Island & Select

Dorothy Perkins:

I love this necklace. It's a real statement piece! I think the black rope contrast really well with the gold chains. It was half price in the sale and I got student discount too! It's probably one of my favourite pieces I've bought.

Also half price in their sale and I got student discount too. I loved the turquoise bluey/green against the silver and it'll be a nice addition to my holiday outfits.

River Island:
£5
There are 5 ear cuffs in this pack, so really each ear cuff was £1, which I think is really good. There's a nice mix of coloured metals in there with the added different design, gem and a charm on each. I love ear cuffs...

Topshop:

...So I got some moreeee! Only this time in Topshop. There is a whole variety on here so I can definitely mix and match them!

 Primark:
£3
I bought ones really similar to these from ASOS the other day and I love how you can wear as many as you like, stack them and mix and match them. These were only £3 so I wanted to add them to my collection.

 £4
I love, love, love this necklace. It's got a tribal edge to it with the colours and design. I love the red and turquoise and think it would look brilliant against a plain canvas like a black top. Really cheap for a statement necklace too!

Again... quite ethnic and boho is this necklace. I can't remember how much it cost but it was hardly anything. I love the turquoise colour in it (Can you tell there's a theme!). I think this would look nice with a floaty, summery dress.

£3 each
How cute are these... they match! I love these, they look quite ethnic with the silver, red and turquoise. I wore the cuff on a night out the other day and I love it. I think the earrings will look great too as I've got short hair.

 £6
Love these. I've always wanted to try the heel-less wedges but never got round to it, so when I spotted them in primark at less than half price, I definitely wanted to give them a go. They're a lovely colour, perfect coral for summer and would look really pretty with a nice floaty dress.

£12, £6
I picked these up as I didn't have any sandals or shoes that I could wear on a holiday. They were half price (I didn't want to buy full price as I didn't think I'd get my wear out of sandals really) and they don't have that in between your toes thingy that I HATE! The nude/tan colour is the perfect colour for me as I can put them with any colour and not have to worry that they don't match. 

£12 or £10 (Can't remember) £6
Same here as with the last. No in between the toes thingy, black in colour to match with outfits easy and half price. Really simple to wear and I really liked the design in studs.

 Select:

I picked these up before I'd bought sandals as I wasn't too sure what I wanted, they were on sale like the others and are sooo simple and easy to wear because of the plain nude colour. I loved the rose gold spikes on the back too for the added edge.

I hope you've liked seeing what I've bought recently.
Have you got any holiday's planned or bought anything specifically for going away?

OOTD: Blurred Lines


Dip-Dye T-Shirt- New Look
Leggings- Select
Concealed Wedge Trainers- Primark

Really casual outfit today due to the fact that we've had pretty crap weather (some summer we had ey, lasted the whole of a week!) and I've had loads of errands to run and stuff to sort out. I've been out this morning to get application forms for a new passport, as well as getting passport photo's and sorting out someone to countersign them for me. 
I also got tones of mail today including lots of bits for DIY post's. I'm hoping to get one done tonight maybe, though I've not even opened them yet to see what exactly has arrived! The main thing I got in the post today that I've been waiting for though is my new SIM card for my phone... I am in love with it! So I've been registering that and my number today too. I've also spent yesterday and today taking some pictures and writing some blog posts in advance.

Anyway... the outfit consists of my new dip-dye t-shirt from New Look that I featured in my last new in post. Cost me just £5 in the sale, it's gorgeously lightweight and feels really floaty. It's lovely. Leggings from +Select Fashion were the easy option today as I knew I had loads to get done but these ones from select are super comfy, they feel thicker too than most other ones I've seen and tried and finally, the heeled trainers. I bought them in Primark last year I think, they're really comfy and the concealed wedge is perfect for me as I'm a shortie :)

Hope you've all had a nice day!

#1 Look Book: Sunning at the beach/Chilling by the pool




So summer should be here soon... yes? PLEASE! We're having some sun here now and then, let's just hope it stays! This look is a holiday look of some of the key pieces I really like at the moment designed for sunning up at the beach or chilling by the pool. The colours would look amazing with a tan and its quite a cool edgy look with the Topshop caged bikini and thick wooden wedges. I love the aviator glasses and the adorable head chain from Asos for an incredible £6 would you believe!? Unfortunately, it just wouldn't suit my short hair style with my side fringe :( you really need a middle parting for one of these. I think the gold rings really go well with this look too and the necklace just has all of the colours to match also. Oh.. This look really makes me want to go on holidays!

Do you have any trips planned? Have you been buying anything for your holidays?
