#71 Graduation Inspiration | Clothing Edition

One - Two - Three - Four -  Five -  Six

Hello! 

As some of you may know, I finished studying for my degree earlier this year and it's now finally time to get prepared for my graduation! As the date is getting closer I've been finding myself doing a lot of screen shopping, so today I wanted to share some of my favourite finds with you. As well as dresses, over the next two weeks I'm also going to be sharing my thoughts on the best shoes and accessories - so keep your eyes peeled! Although most people have already had their graduations, these outfits are suitable for most occasions and with Christmas on it's way (yay!) I'm sure there will be lots coming up! 

I've been warned and warned that photos from my graduation will haunt me for the rest of my life, so I'm being very cautious when it comes to planning my outfit for the day! 

As you can tell there is a bit of an accidental colour theme going on. Normally you won't catch me in anything that isn't black, white or grey but I am determined to try something a little more adventurous! Although black is a classic, I've been drawn to a lot of red dresses (which is probably because there are lot around at this time of year) as well as navy blue and of course, white. As I am quite petite I've tried to go for shorter styles rather than anything too long, as dresses often tend to drown me a little. The main thing I love about all the options above is that they are wearable and aren't the type of thing that you can only wear to one occasion. It's also great when an outfit can be teamed with either gold or silver jewellery, as lets face it, accessories can completely transform an outfit!

I'm finding it SO difficult to make a decision (there's just too much choice!) but my current favourites are 1, 4 and 6. 

What is your favourite (I'm looking for all the help I can get!)?

#65 Fieldview 500 | OOTD



Good Morning! 

Last weekend I went to a small festival local to where I live, Fieldview 500. The festival is usually known as Fieldview Festival but sadly that came to an end last summer, so this year they organised a smaller, invite only event in it's place. I had a lovely couple of days with some of my favourite people. We saw some great bands, my personal favourite was Sam Green & The Midnight Heist. The second day of the festival was Superheros and Villians dress up so I might share some of those photos another time, but today I wanted to share what I wore on the Friday.

Personally I am not opposed to the whole double denim rule, in fact I like it, I like it a lot. I picked up this Levis denim jacket at a Vintage Fare in Southampton for about £15 - what a bargain! To be honest I don't wear it as much as I would like to/should, but whenever I do I fall back in love with it. It's in such good condition for the price and it actually keeps me pretty warm! My Levis shorts are from Urban Outfitters (currently on offer), if you haven't got a pair then what are you doing!? I also have these in a lighter denim and have got so much use out of both pairs. My almost favourite item is this gorgeous hat from H&M, I don't think I need to say a lot really - just look at it *swoon*. Now onto the blouse, my favourite item in this look. I picked up this beauty from Topshop and I don't think anyone has seen me wear much else since. You can't quite see it properly in this post so I'll use it in another OOTD soon, it's just so simple yet different to any standard white blouse. I also love stacking jewellery and think these necklaces look good together, the elephant is from Accessorize and the other is from Urban Outfitters (similar here). It was a bit chilly and the weather wasn't looking great (it rained as soon as we wanted to put the tent up, typical) so I opted to tights and black converse - which I quickly changed for wellies!

#61 Italy, Argegno | OOTD Day 9


Playsuit | Zara 
Shoes | ASOS 

I know these aren't the BEST quality photos but how gorgeous is this Zara playsuit? As soon as I saw it I literally couldn't take my mind off of it and had to buy it! I'm not usually one to wear colour but I love the blue shade of this piece and the pattern is lovely. It's a great statement summer item and it can easily be dressed up or down, depending on shoes and make up. Although I opted for bold eyes and a nude lip, I also love pairing this outfit with a bold red lip, the red really compliments the blue tone of the playsuit.

#60 Italy, Argegno | OOTN Day 8

Hat | River Island 
Necklace | H&M
Blouse | Zara 
Jeans | Topshop 
Shoes | ASOS 
Satchel | Urban Outfitters 

Last night we caught a short ferry over to Bellagino for dinner and the food was ah-may-zing. As well as my outfit I wanted to share the make up look I'd gone for. I always find eyeshadow a bit hit and miss but really liked the final look last night. I used my Stila pallet on the eyes and kept the lips simple with 'Shy Girl' by MAC. 

I hope you're all having a lovely week so far!

#55 Italy, Argegno | OOTD Arrival & Day 1

I arrived in Argegno yesterday evening and it is so pretty! The views are amazing but the weather is a little temperamental, although living in England that's something I'm used to. I'm going to do a big post all about my time here once I'm back, but whilst I'm here I thought I'd share some outfits/make up looks with you all. Being a stupid idiot I managed to leave my foundation at home *cry cry* I usually pack more than one but the one time I decide to pack just the one I forget completely. So I'm desperately hoping to find my way to a well stocked pharmacy soon! Anyway, onto the outfits! 


I wasn't sure what the weather would be like when we arrived in Milan so I opted for my Topshop Joni jeans, a Topshop cami (in black), a Matalan jumper, my ASOS shoes, River Island hat and Urban Outfitters bag. I also had a large bag full of all the stuff that wouldn't fit in my suitcase! 


It was quite chilly in the evening so I chose my Topshop Mom jeans, a River Island crop top and hat, H&M belt, ASOS shoes and Urban Outfitters bag. I also brought a warm cardi with me for when the cold got too much. 


Today the sun was out and it was really warm, so I opted for this pretty H&M dress, New Look sandals, M&S kimono, Urban Outfitters sunglasses and the standard RI hat and UO bag (they are bound to make countless appearances!)
