Cosabella Ombré Collection

BRA* // COSABELLA
BOTTOMS* // COSABELLA

CHXRMED NECKLACE* • ‬ZERO UV SUNNIES ZARA TAYLOR & DIXI RINGS*‬ LOVE HEARTS & CROSSES BANGLE• LOMO CAMERA JUJU JELLIES

2ND PHOTO BY SHOPE


I received this gorgeous set from Cosabella a little while ago and I've been really excited to share my thoughts with you guys as I'm so in love with it! I have previously blogged about swimwear - not yet underwear - but I'm totally comfortable with it and as I did mention in - my haul video, I love seeing what new underwear bloggers find because I'm always in the market for new sets!

My whole life I've always worn basic underwear from Primark or M&S because I saw it as a necessity and it's affordable from those two places - but owning some super pretty undergarments has made me realise you get what you pay for, so in my case I've never got anything special.

Then this little Cosabella set came along and I'm so obsessed with it, I mean, for a start it's ombré - super on trend and unique. It's also in the triangle shape which is ~all the rage~ lately and I've been on the hunt for a good triangle bra for a while. The lace is stretchy but firm so er..keeps you all in, as well as being breathable for the summer weather and to top it all off, it's the comfiest underwear I've ever worn - no word of a lie; support and comfort is a new discovery for me and It's set almost unrealistic expectations for future bras - think I definitely need some more Cosabella in my life!

TROPICAL TWOSIE

  
FEDORA // H&M (SIMILAR)
SUNGLASSES* // ZEROUV
NECKLACES // SHOP MOON CHILD, CHXRMED
JACKET* // MISSGUIDED
TOP* // MISSGUIDED
SHORTS* // MISSGUIDED
BOOTS* // MISSGUIDED
BRACELETS* // CHXRMED, LOVE HEARTS & CROSSES
RINGS // RACHAEL SUDLOW, DIXI*, DRUZY DREAMS*, ZARA TAYLOR*, DIXI*, TOPSHOP*

I'm currently typing this post by candlelight for the WW1 remembrance and am feeling so relaxed and zen, I should blog like this more often!
As you may be able to tell from the wristband, these photos were taken just after LoveBox Festival, which I attended recently (post on that soon!) - I've been a little behind with uploading outfit posts with all this moving house so bear with me for the time being!  This twosie is a good'un from Missguided, by far one of my top 3 stores, and I love how the palm leaves mix with the tile print.  This jacket tops everything though - I've been wearing it so much since I got it as it goes with everything and is so soft, so fits well, I got a 12 if any of you are wondering!
Anyway, I've left it too late, so now I'm off to cook my dinner by candlelight - d'oh!

YOU ARE THE CONSTELLATIONS

  

NECKLACE* // BLACK SHEEP BOUTIQUE
DRESS* // MINTY JUNGLE
BOOTS* // ARK
RINGS // RACHAEL SUDLOW, ZARA TAYLOR*, DIXI*, MARKET, GOOD GIRL COLLECTIVE*, INFINITINE*
LIPS // MAC BOYFRIEND STEALER

A very simple outfit today but I thought I'd let the dress speak for itself as it's so cool! I'm really into moons and constellations etc at the moment so this dress came into my life at the perfect time.  While I'm here I'd also like to apologise for the lack of daily posting and also for neglecting my YouTube channel - I've been so busy with a new job and moving house that I've been struggling to get anything done.  Hopefully regular posting will resume shortly!

Sunglasses* // ZeroUV
Necklace* // Dixi
Cardigan // Primark
Dress* // ARK
Shoes* // Dolcis
Rings // Rachel Sudlow, market, market, Henryka, Zara Taylor, vintage

I'm no stranger to a smock dress.  I think they're a very love/hate thing because of their sheer shapelessness, which, I think, is what makes them so wearable.  I love the print of this one and the dip hem is a lovely detail, plus it goes perfectly with my new favourite cardigan I picked up at Primark (so snuggly!).  I thought I'd go super co-ordinated with my footwear so went with my burgundy ankle boots from Dolcis, which I actually have two pairs of, so if you want your own pair just read on!

I accidentally got sent the wrong size in these pretty boots so I thought I'd give them away to you guys!  It won't be as flexible as most giveaways as they are a size UK 6 but hopefully they'll go to a home where they can actually be worn and appreciated!  To enter just read the rules below.

SEASON OF POISON


Sunglasses* // ZeroUV
Chain* // Zara Taylor
Sweatshirt* // Poor Boy
Leggings* // Little By Little
Boots* // Dolcis
Rings // Rachel Sudlow, ebay, English Rose Designs*, Chelsea Doll*, Dixi*
Lips // Mac Rebel

I absolutely love the print on these leggings - quite 'out there' but then again so is half of my wardrobe!  I went all out monochrome and just feel this jumper was made to wear with these leggings, and I hate to condone the whole leggings as trousers look but I couldn't think of what else to pair together.

LUXE ROSE

Jacket* // Chicwish
Dress* // Lavish Alice
Bracelet* // Stylight
Shoes* // Shellys London
Rings // market, market, Regal Rose, English Rose Designs*, vintage, Zara Taylor*
Lips // Drop Dead Red by Too Faced

It literally feels like ages since I posted an outfit with my usual wardrobe background so here I am once again - nothing fancy!  I thought I'd post this outfit as it's perfect timing for New Years and there is a possibility this dress might make the cut.  I love how it's shaped to look like a two piece and the cut of it is structured so really flattering in my opinion.  I've never actually seen a rose gold dress before so I was more than happy to welcome such a unique piece into my wardrobe!

TEEN DREAM


Sunglasses* // ZeroUV
Crop Sweater* // Wildfox Couture
Bikini* // Triangl Swimwear
Rings // market, Zara Taylor*, Lumafina, Zara Taylor*, SWAG*, Vivienne Westwood

Okay so first off, you can probably tell that I experimented with a different style of outfit photos.  I just thought that this Wildfox piece is so extraordinary that I wanted to do something special.  I thought my Triangl bikini bottoms would fit perfectly with the super sparkly top and I'm actually really happy with how the photos turned out.  I wasn't sure whether or not to post the photos as obviously they're a little more cheeky than my usual style but it's boring being having the same backdrop all the time and life's too short to worry about what people on the internet think about you.  I really hope you like the photos and please; if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all!

CHASING VISIONS OF OUR FUTURES

Cat ears* // Boohoo
Earrings* // Moon Bright
Necklace* // Hunter Gatherer
Dress* // Evil Twin via Urban Outfitters
Bracelet* // Native Feathers
Spiked Damsels // Jeffrey Campbell
Rings // The Bohemian Co*, Zara Taylor*, market, market, Diamonfire*, Henryka*
Lips // Mac Boyfriend Stealer

Yes these photos were taken around Halloween time which is why I'm wearing the kitty ears, but lets just ignore that and focus on this gorgeous dress!  Evil Twin never disappoint; the velvet burnout detail is so unique, and the neck cutouts give it an alien-esque touch so I thought I'd pair it with my super high damsels which haven't seen my blog for a little while now!
Ps. I'm selling some of my wardrobe on my blog shop at discounted prices - shop here!
