DRESSING UP A JUMPSUIT

Loving this weather, it is really needed to lift spirits right now and get people in the mood for the Summer time. I'm one of these people, that need to see and feel the heat creeping on to get motivated to want to eat better and get some ideas for holidays and time out etc. Me being me though, I'm still styling all black..

FINDERS KEEPERS THE LABEL

It's been awhile since I posted, so I thought it was only right to come back with this killer all black look, wearing the amazing Finders Keepers label. This co-ord especially makes me feel like such an independent woman and I love the cut and simple detailing. I really hope my images manage to do this justice. Even though it's been a super sunny week.. I will still not hesitate to wear black!

MY PRIMARK SS14 / TOP 10

Primark have done it again, left me with my mouth wide open, eagerly awaiting payday. Their Spring/Summer Collection has even more than you would expect from the cheapest, under-rated high street brand in the country. To show them my appreciation of their great designs and price points, I have carefully selected my top 10 for all my readers to preview. I'm not afraid to say that I love a great Primark find. There is nothing more satisfying than finding a great item, having an admirer ask where it's from and you get the joy of witnessing the shock and horror when they discover it's just from Primark. These items below were my top 10 choices out of 210, Primark showcased a preview of their new SS14 collection recently on the Look Magazine website. This black and white co-ord will be a girls best friend this Spring, and anyone lucky enough to grab a hold of the combo in their exact sizes, well lets just say you are one of the lucky ones. I am yet to achieve two size 8s, in both the jacket and the shorts. Primark's pleather is also coming through in the masses, and it is safe to say that whilst being loyal to Topshop as my work place, their pleather is far better quality than any other high street chain. This mint green pleather skirt in the top left hand corner also comes in the popular Winter camel colour, at just £10 each, it would be stupid to not have these two key skirt in your wardrobe.

Say hello to these beautiful pastel pink shoes, they are the best yet and with all these pastel colours flying around the place, once all the fashionistas and bloggers get onto these, there will be none left on the shelf by the end of the day. Lastly I'm going to mention the blue dogtooth maxi shirt, this is one I am eager to look out for, and one that is a sure top spot for events such as the races and late night picnics in the parks. Already I have so much outfit inspiration from these 10 hits. Let me know what you think?

OH MY LOVE & BITE ME CLOTHING

Black Maxi Dress - Oh My Love,

Leather Boots - Topshop.

Camo Unicorn Jacket - Bite Me Clothing,

Tartan Headband - Primark

Lately I am in love with Oh My Love, as you will become familiar with in new blog post to come. This has become more apparent when I work alongside them in Topshop and I get to see all the new pieces that come through. I have brought so many things now and their quality and eye for design is perfect. This silk style long black maxi dress with the cut out sides and slits by the leg, instantly caught my eye. I love anything black, silky and elegant. That description is always a must have in my wardrobe, as you can never go wrong with a black number and it always becomes a key component in your wardrobe for mix and matching and pulling other garments together.

I have recently been working alongside Bite Me Clothing, having the opportunity to showcase their fabulous range of custom made clothing, especially their jackets. This unicorn one in particular you can purchase in a local vintage store in the heart of Liverpool, on one of the famous shopping streets Bold Street. Bite Me Clothing are going from strength to strength and I was honoured when they asked if I would begin blogging some of their unique pieces. Lauren the owner, designer and manager of the company kindly gave me one of their amazing denim jackets as a gift. I took that baby to Barcelona with me (in next post).

I decide to throw on a tartan headband for the fun of it, this was from Primark, an amazing find and one that is already tied for you, as I'm no good at getting all creative and doing it myself.

Beanie - Skull & Bones

I was still holding onto my summer vibes a month ago and with a trip home to North Wales, a trip to the beach was needed. Living in the city now makes you appreciate places like this back home. So I decided to use some of my most recent city break summer clothes and create a little beach blog shoot. At the moment this beanie is my favourite, but that is forever changing. Skull and Bones are smashing designs in and this hat is too comfortable to even explain.
