A Walk In The Park | OOTD

Today I went for a drive in my new car, and ended up at the woods, me and my boyfriend decided to go for a walk, so I thought I'd get him to snap a picture of my outfit for the day! I know I seem a little too dressed up for the woods and I have slightly inappropriate footwear for the muddy walkways but I was too excited to wear some of my latest purchases!


Floral Statement Necklace | Wallis @ Debenhams | £20.00
Blue Denim Skinny Jeans (Old) | Topshop | £40
White Sandles | Primark | £8.00

I bought some of these pieces recently, the crop jumper I particularly love, and bought to wear on the plane on my upcoming holiday. This crop top is part of a co-ord set and you can buy a midi knitted skirt to match, but I didn't need the other half on this occasion (unlike me!) My pink round sunglasses are also from missguided and they are my absolute fave, they are the prettiest colour of pink and have a really nice graduated lens that fades from black to clear. This beautiful floral statement necklace is from the Wallis section in Debenhams, the moment I saw it I fell in love, it's made up of lots of really pretty pastel colours and gems and makes any boring outfit look beautiful! The jeans from Topshop were bought quite a while back, I wear them often because they are just so soft, and the super tight fit clings perfectly onto my legs! Finally, my gorgeous new Primark sandals, these seem to be quite a popular little purchase amongst bloggers, they are just as stylish as any purchase similar from somewhere such as River Island or Topshop and are quite well made, and the best part.. only £8!! Quite a difference from the £40 they cost in some other shops!

Hope you loved my casual walk in the woods outfit as much as I love it and my new Missguided, Primark and Wallis purchases.

Lots of love xo

Floral, Pastels & PVC | Outfit

Today I was looking through the Miss Selfridge Website, and came across a top that I completely and utterly fell in love with, I sat there thinking of things that I could pair this item with, so I thought what more perfect timing than this to put together an outfit with some items I think look lovely together!


90s Floral Crop | Miss Selfridge | £12
Nagsia PVC Mini Skirt | Missguided | £17.99
Light Purple T-Bar Platform Sandals | River Island | £55
Megan Painted Clutch Bag | Missguided | £14.99
Aldo Frirella Tough Pretty Necklace | ASOS | £25

The item I fell in Love with on Miss Selfridge was, of course, the beautiful 90s Floral Crop; definitely my new favourite style of crop top... and the colour in the flowers on this was are absolutely beautiful, I love the different mixes of purple and blue! The great thing was, as well, is that the top would pair nicely with any of the many shades of purple and blue in the top. 

I felt that because the top is quite loud, it would pair with items nicely that are the opposite, little or no pattern, plain and simple! The first thing I paired the top with was the PVC Blue Skirt from Missguided, which I really adore, I thought, as I am going for something very simple, I didn't want the look to be completely boring with the plain items I was going to be using, so I thought I would keep the outfit nice and interesting with quite a daring fabric, PVC is really starting to come in and become much more popular, and I think pastel with PVC makes for a really nice combination. I thought I would use baby blue so that I could bring out more of the blue from the top, as the majority of the shades are purple. I carried on the PVC look with a Lilac clutch from Missguided, again very simple but matching the fabric with the skirt and matching with some of the purple in the top. I then added a pair of killer heels, adding some diversity to the look with a matte texture, the complete opposite of the very shiny pvc, the heels are another different shade of purple. Finally, I added a statement necklace, keeping with the floral theme and adding something else to go with the top that quite literally, makes a statement!

Overall I love this look, very feminine and it is really suited for Spring / Summer this year, and would be great as a night outfit, or a day outfit paired with some nice flats! 

I hope your loving this look as much as I am!
Hopefully I will get to wear it and write a post showing me wearing this perfect outfit!
I wish!
Goodnight & Sweet Dreams xo
