NO PARALLELS #DRESSMAS

Top* // Boohoo
Skirt* // Missguided
Shoes // Carvela (similar)
Rings // Rachel Sudlow, market, market, Kukee*, market, Dixi*
Lips // Drop Dead Red - Too Faced

You may notice the lighting is slightly different in these photos, that's because I used my new softbox studio lights that I got for Christmas!  I'm still getting used to how to place them to get the best light, which is why these may be a little dodgy, but overall I'm super happy with them and so glad I can finally get well lit photos now that the sun is deciding to set at 4pm every day!  I love how unique this top is and I actually wore this outfit to my New Years Party - plus it's now in the sale for just £6 - you can't go wrong!

HAUNTED TO BE WANTED

Dress* // Lovarni
Belt // Claire's
Shoes // Carvela
Earring // DIY
Arm cuff // Vintage
Rings // Market, Native Feathers*, vintage, market, Ette*, Persunmall*

I feel as if I look a lot older in these photos - especially when you compare it to my bright style in my previous outfit post!  I know this look is really simple, but I quite like that about it, sometimes its refreshing to be minimal (although never minimal enough to not wear handfuls of rings!).  This is actually the first maxi-anything I've ever posted on my blog or properly owned, and they're actually so easy to wear!  I love it so much but unfortunately, as you may be able to see, this dress is the tiniest bit too short for me (boohoo!) so I am selling it on my online shop here.  Maybe it will find a new home with someone that it will look even better on!

LET THEM STARE



Dress* // Let Them Stare
Shoes // Carvela (mums)
Clutch* // Marc b
Necklace // Etsy (one off)
Bracelet // Thomas Sabo
Rings // Market, Mums, market, Thriftette*, Rachael Sudlow
Nail polish* // Northern Sky Nails

This is definitely one of the most flattering dresses I've worn in a while - I think the cut is so lovely and gives the illusion of a smaller waist where the pattern on the fabric slants..if you get what I mean.  What makes it even more amazing is that it was totally handmade by the lovely Anastasia, and she is mega talented because there is not one flaw in the design - I could never make a dress of this quality even if I tried!  I love the sheer back, and I find it's better for my body shape, as it's a well known fact that if you're 'breastically challenged' you can make up for it by showing off your back!  Moving on - I think these accessories were literally made for this dress - the dull nude shoes go perfectly with the hints of brown in the dress, and the Marc b bag matches almost spot on with the blue, it's also a lovely summer colour and can be used as a clutch or a purse!  For the purpose of these photos I actually stuffed it with some fluffy socks - little 'behind the scenes' fact for you there haha.  Hope you like the outfit!

VALLEY OF THE DOLLS


Hat // Mums
Dress* // Persunmall
Shoes // Carvela
Earrings // Topshop
Necklace // Charity shop
Bracelet* // OASAP
Rings // Harts + Crosses*, Primark, Persunmall*, H&M, market

As we've been having such lovely weather recently here in England I thought I'd put together a super sunny outfit! I'm not used to wearing hats, especially such large statement ones, but I quite liked this one and feel it adds more to what would otherwise be a very simple outfit.  Unforunately because I'm quite tall (5' 10" if anyone wants to know!) The dress is quite short so I've put it up for sale in my blog shop here for £11 cheaper than the RRP.  I'm sad that I have to sell it but I know I won't really wear it too often!
