Brockwell Pop

Happy Sunday folks!!

I've just had a sunbathe on the roof, armed with a book of Sudoku and my favourite songs. Hope you're all enjoying the sunshine. Make the most of it, I hear there's rain to come later this week. Now for today's outfit post. This is from a while back when London had it's first full day of sunshine at the end of March.

This lush colour blocking suede skirt is another magnificent vintage find from Pop Boutique, who not only sell vintage clothing but also make their own vintage inspired clothes which you can find on Asos! The colours are to die for and I love that the sides are different colours. I've paired it with this sweet heart print chiffon top from Oasap.

I spent to day with my best friend Chloe, exploring her nearest park in Herne Hill, Brockwell Park. We had a spot of lunch at the Lido Cafe (scrambled egg in the sun has never tasted so good!) and took in the wonderful views of London. In the evening we went to a little gig at The Islington where we danced the night away to a great little band called The Fresh Dixie Project. They play all over the the UK and even made an appearance at a festival in Germany, so be sure to check them out!

Who's ready for some more photos? Good, because we took loads!









Thanks for reading. Don't be shy, come say hi!!

I'll be back very soon with a very vintage wedding guest look. You can like my Facebook Page or follow me on Twitter for sneak peeks before I post.

Bye for now! X

Mojo

'Ello 'ello!

Last week I went to see Mojo at the theatre featuring an amazing cast of (wait for it...) Rupert Grint, Ben Whishaw, Colin Morgan, Daniel Mays and Brendan Coyle. It was such a good play and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Here's what I wore.


The retro braided sweater and pleated high waist pleuche velvet skirt are both from Oasap. I layered the jumper over a plain pink shirt and added a red ribbon tied as a bow as a little extra something. My midnight blue clutch is from Accessorize and the navy chelsea boots are from Topshop.



I'm really starting to feel a bit Christmassy (too early?). The cute Santa ring is actually from the top of a little Christmas bun from Greggs. I just had to have him!! He'll feature some more on the blog in the lead up to Crimbo.


If you are looking for something to see in London, I highly recommend Mojo. There are lots of strong performances from a fantastic cast line up, and who knew Ben Whishaw could sing?! I cannot wait to go and see it again!

Thanks for reading. I'll be back soon!

Playing In The Autumn Leaves

Hi guys!!

Here's another outfit post from another 7am photoshoot with KevKev!


Can you tell I love Autumn? This was a very fun look as I gave Kev a task to pick out an item of clothing for me to wear for the day. It was then up to me to create the rest of my outfit from his chosen item.


Kev's choice was my quite bright purple shirt from H&M. I bought it from their sale last year for just £5. I decided to carry on with the bright colours and paired it with these aquagreen skinny jeans from Monsoon. I love their jeans as they're slightly more high waisted than other places and are super comfy. I've thrown on my really light but warm jumper from Uniqlo's men's section, because, let's face it, a gentleman's jumper always feels nicer. My sweet little pearl bow brooch was a gift from my best friend Jess.


My wonderful sailor styled pea coat was a birthday gift from my lovely Nan 2 years ago. I'm sure she'll be happy to see that I still wear and cherish it :) The black patent loafers are originally by Matalan but I got them on eBay for a bargain price of 99p, brand new too!


My snake ring can be found here and the kitty ears ring here. The gold and black ring in the middle was a Christmas present from my Parents. 


This was fun! Although I did get hit in the face with the leaves, I don't have a great aim...

A here's Kev looking his usual happy self  <3 p="">


We're off to the theatre tomorrow night to see the new West End play Mojo. It's got a fantastic cast made up of Rupert Grint (hello Ron Weasley!), Colin Morgan (Merlin anyone?!), Brendan Coyle (good evening Mr Bates), Daniel Mays (amazing!) and Ben Whishaw (enough said...). I am literally so excited. We're going to try our luck at meeting some of the cast afterwards, so watch this space!!

Don't forget you can like my Facebook page here! I know I keep saying it, but I promise there will be an exclusive giveaway coming veeerrryyy soon!

Thanks for reading :)

Monsoon

Hello!

My Panda post from yesterday has gone down a storm over on Lookbook and Chictopia. Thank you to everyone for the new likes, follows and comments! Don't forget, you can get your very own Panda Sweatshirt right HERE! And now for something a little different and a bit more me.


This beautiful dress is from Monsoon, it's so elegant and I feel like such a lady in it. Such a gorgeous autumn colour and it goes so well with my dark green lace up boots by Graceland from Deichmann.



It's quite difficult to truly capture the wonderful dark green colour of these boots, this is the closest I could get. They feel a lot higher than they look but are very comfortable to walk around the office in. My bowler hat is by H&M but I got it from the very first clothes swapping event by SwapAholicsUK. They have a very special men's only swap shop happening soon to celebrate Movember. Us girlies are more than welcome to come along to this swap, but it will only have men's clothing available. This suits me just fine because we all know how much warmer men's jumpers are!


This pretty heart necklace I bought a few years ago from New Look. I love its vintage style.

Be sure to follow the blog on GFC, Bloglovin or Facebook as I'll be running an exclusive giveaway very soon!

Thanks for reading, following, commenting, liking, hyping and everything else!

Mollie King For Oasis

Today it was revealed that The Saturday's Mollie King is Oasis' first ever Style Ambassador. Known for her cute and girlie style, she's the perfect candidate for Oasis. Over on the Oasis site, she has picked her favourite items from the new Winter collection and given them the 'Loved By Mollie' stamp of approval. Here are a few of my personal picks.

The dresses (and playsuit)


I absolutely adore the polka dot skater dress. The leather finishing touches are what makes it for me. The tuxedo playsuit looks fun and boyish.

The Skirts



All of these skirts are high-waisted and very 60's, and we all know I love that era! The navy leather skirt is such a flattering length and the checked one is extremely in right now!

The Others


The tuxedo jumpsuit is sure to put curves in all the right places and that fluffy jumper will definitely keep you warm during these coming winter nights. The gold detailing make these black boots a luxury.

Oasis are also running a competition where you could win a shopping weekend in London!

What are your favourite pieces from Mollie's top picks?
