Just one of those things :

Sequin shorties. One of those pieces that I saw in Topshop, my heart proceeded to skip a beat, until stopped by my head inadvertently screaming

"YOU WILL NEVER CARRY THEM OFF."


Sienna Miller looked fabulous (as always) when she stepped out in what looked like Bridget Jones pants, even while stood next to the notorious Anna Wintour :




However I'm not sure that I'd get the same reaction. My friend Ashton wore a pair of black sequinned shorties on our night out the other night, teamed with a cream lace leotard and thick black tights. She looked fabulous. Maybe it's something to do with confidence, but I'm just not sure. How would you wear them? Or would you wear them? I'm intrigued. Maybe festival gear... tights, wellies, pants, you know how it goes...

Oh, how could I forget :

This Kate Moss, Liberty print dress for Topshop is right at the top of my festival wishlist.

If A. is reading... size 8 please <3





Love love love love lovvvvveeee it.

Glasto glamour :

So festival season is in full bloom, as is the festival fashion. I always love when the glossies ask celebs their festival essentials... so I thought it'd be fun to post mine.

There are the obvious choices :
1. A pop up tent. Far less hassle than all that tent putting-up business, and lighter too. Winner!
2. GROUND MATS or something to sleep on other than a sleeping bag... just trust me from experience.
3. Batiste dry shampoo - far cheaper than it's pro-hairdresser rivals, and does the same job.
4. Deoderant body wipes and baby wipes.
5. Wellies. Any kind will do! That said, if anyone would like to purchase me a pair of limited edition Jimmy Choo for Hunter wellies, I am a size 5 (38), and would quite literally love you forever. Here is a photo for reference and a link for ease ;)




As I can't afford the £235 that the Jimmy Choo Hunter's cost, I will be sticking with last year's £8.00 leopard print Primarni wellies, which are strangely available from Miss Selfridge for £22.00 this year. Tapping into affordable designer festival wear, however, I'm happy with my new PPQ mac, available from M&M Direct - £10.



Also on my wishlist :
- an amazing playsuit please, floral preferably
- crop tees and high waisted shorts
- print ray bans

Denim playsuit : Miss Selfridge : £38.00
Floral playsuit : Miss Selfridge : £35.00

Any suggestions for playsuits? And what are your festival must-haves?

The Male Gaze :

My boyfriend is abnormal, albeit slightly hilarious. When looking through the Topshop website...

"You know when the capsule from Apollo 13 finally landed... that's what this skirt looks like. It just needs a circle window..."






I have to say, this time I actually agree..

NYC Need :

It's been a while. Dwindling funds have resulted in my lack of excitement on the shopping front, however I was forced to window shop yesterday by my mother, looking for a wedding outfit. Painful? Yes! I practically needed everything in Zara, and don't even get me started on Topshop. And seeing as Zara's website is just plain difficult, I thought I'd just post all the stuff I need from Topshop. Ohhhh...

Summer, Summer, Summertime :

The sun is finally beginning to make an appearance here in Britain, and as anyone who lives here knows, it only takes a glimpse of the rays for the entire nation to become sun-happy and snatch out their shortest shorts, sunglasses and strappy tops. I am no exception to this British rule, and this latest spout of summerish weather has brought me to blogging bikinis. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Dilemna :

Saturday 7th of March : London Fashion Weekend.
Question : What the bloody hell do I wear?

While I was meant to be shopping for an outfit, I ended up buying shoes. Yes, just one pair of shoes. So it looks like I will be visiting LFWE in my fabulously high shoes, bra and knickers. Hmm...

I need help!

Saffron Heels : TopShop : £65.00

Summer L♥vin...

I am excited... far too excited in that lots of beautiful summer clothes are currently hitting the shops, many of those I need, however unfortunately, my bank account doesn't quite agree.

Possibly a savour then that the new Kate Moss collection for TopShop has not appeared on the high street yet, however, I have a sneak peek of her Spring Summer treats...

Highlights include a gold shift style dress, draping in sequins, and a cropped black fringing jacket, both shown below. Mossy done herself proud; again.

TopShop Muse : Richard Nicoll

Not only do TopShop Boutique stock Richard Nicoll, it seems their own clothing range is taking inspiration from the up and coming designer, too. I love this lantern skirt, similar to the Richard Nicoll two-tone suit.

I've not indulged in a while... so today I thought I'd treat myself. Some after-work retail therapy resulted in me finallly getting that nail varnish I've been pining after since my visit to the states, and some shoes from le TopShop that I've had my eye on for ages!

Here they are :)
