I'm very weary of neon as it can easily look cheap and tacky, but these ladies nail it using simple classic pieces or accessories in luminous colours!

I've wanted a pair of dungarees for a few years now but haven't found a pair I like. I think they look so cool with a bandeau underneath!

I keep seeing more and more collar tips around and I love the various designs they come in, I think it's time to buy a pair :)

Since I bought an ombre top last week I suddenly want all things ombre, I particularly like this ombre blazer from Topshop - trouble is, I have no where to wear it!

May bought us a glimpse of Summer which prompted me to bring out my Summer dresses and in turn made me want more!

Happy June everyone! Can you believe we're half way through the year already?!

Gladiator

Dress: Topshop | Earrings: Topshop Sale | Sandals: Fenwicks Sale | Toes: Topshop 'Pool Party'

I wore this outfit on Sunday when I went for that delicious pub lunch that I mentioned the other day, I thought I'd better hurry up and post this before the weather goes completely miserable! Why oh why is British weather so bipolar?! Anywho, I decided to wear my Topshop dress that I got last year which I'm sure most of you have seen before (I didn't realise they'd be quite so popular!) It's a really pretty Summer dress which doesn't show huge amounts of skin which I find a lot of summery dresses can do - especially if you're slightly taller than the average girl! I've seen a fair few copies of this dress since I bought it, AX Paris have got some identical ones for a lot cheaper and with floral prints.. I'm tempted to buy one!

I found these old sandals whilst digging through the depths of my wardrobe.. What do you think of them? I'm undecided. There was a bit of a trend for them, I seem to remember but now I just think awful tan lines, haha!

I've just realised that this will be my last post (live one anyway) for a while, I don't think I ever mentioned but I'm going to Guernsey on Saturday! I've got lots of scheduled blog posts to write up so you won't miss me too much ;) Let me know if you've even been to Guernsey before and also let me know some of your high end make up recommendations - I'm hitting up duty free! 

Back soon :)

eBay vs Topshop #6

Eeep! Slightly later post than I expected, I didn't expect today to be so busy, but here it is!

                 

MOTO Crochet Hotpants, £40 | eBay version, £17.99

Hawaiian Print Bralet, £25 | eBay version, £13.99

Multi Skull Stretch, £7.50 | eBay version, £2.47

Crop Tee, £8 | eBay version, £4.99

High Low Maxi Skirt by Love, £40 | eBay version, £12.99

I went for a summery theme today (what glorious weather we've had!) You could actually mix and match some of these items to work as outfits, I think the crop top and the dip hem skirt would look so pretty together!

Tiffany Inspired Nails

I recently purchased 'Pool Party' nail polish by Topshop (corrr, wouldn't a pool party be great on a day like this!) it's an extremely similar colour to the little Tiffany & Co jewellery boxes every girl wants to have sit on their dressing table!

Pool Party by Topshop

Add bows on your thumbnails by using a white nail art pen.

I used some rhinestones along my half moons (much cheaper than Tiffany diamonds ;)) and a coat of Models Own 'Juicy Jules' on my little fingers.

And lastly some diamonds on your ring fingers! 

In other news, today I've been for a pub lunch and as usual I've overindulged and consequently feel like I can't move. It was so delicious though and lovely to sit out in the sun, I'm surprisingly tired considering how little I've done! I'm off for some serious shopping tomorrow too, which I'm excited for - hello Primark! Even though the Primark I'm going to is pretty rubbish I'm still looking forward to it.. I'm such a Primark addict!

Hope you liked the nails - I realised it's been a while :)

Retro

Blouse: Primark (Borrowed from Mum!) | Leggings: Next

I got the retro/sixties vibe from this top so I thought I'd play on that a bit. I like this top more than I realised, it's got a cute little collar with a ribbon like River Island did a lot of last A/W and there aren't many prints like this around at the moment! I'm also just trying on these Next potential riding pants which I bought a couple of weeks ago as a substitute in case I don't manage to get the H&M ones I want, so they might be going back. I'm still waiting for the H&M ones I ordered (surprise, surprise!) 

Anyway, if you can't get hold of the H&M riding pants, these Next ones are the second best thing I've found. You can't see from the picture but they're high waisted and have a seem down the front, have a look on the website for a better idea!

I also attempted some sixties inspired make up and some odd clipped back beehive thing, despite having a lot of it, hair has never been my strong point! 

Hope you're all enjoying the sun! I have tan lines!
