Boyfriend fit





Shirt - Hollister
Top - Zara
Jeans - Hollister
Shoes - Schuh
Watch - Fossil
Bracelets - Asos + Spanish market

I wore this outfit to a table quiz on Saturday night. This shirt is actually my boyfriends but I love boyfriend fit clothes and I thought I might aswell wear his instead of buying one plus I love all these colours. When I went to get a vest top to wear under the shirt it proved a bit of a problem because I think I don't suit white unless I have sun shimmer on. Black can also be a bad colour on me if I don't have tan on I think I am too pale for black. So this was the only top I had that went with the shirt and jeans, I got it in Zara a few weeks ago and
I also got it in red too, I love them because they are so light and easy to wear, I don't like clothes that cling to me too much. I don't think I have ever blogged these jeans before, I got them when I was in New York. They stretched a bit at first but they seem to have done all their stretching and now fit fine.

Mismatched





Jacket - Zara
Shirt - Topshop
Dress - H&M
Leggings - Primark
Shoes - Schuh

I set out only to wear this dress and my converse today but then when I put it on it looked very short, I think it has shrunk in the wash! So I teamed it with leggings and the grey ones were the only pair I could find. Then I thought it would be cold outside so I put this shirt on but realised it didn't really go so decided to cover it up with my cool Zara jacket. It all looks quite mismatched but that's why I like it.....

 what do you think?

Tour de fashion





Cardigan - Primark
Top - Primark
Jeans - River Island
Shoes - Office

I had planned today to get up and go for a long cycle but that went by the way side when I didn't get in last night until half two! So my boyfriend and I just watched the formula one and le Tour de France ( Well done Bradley Wiggons btw) and ate junk all day, sure what else would you do on a Sunday? 

I think this outfit looks very American prep school like with the converse high tops and rolled up jeans. I love high tops but I think they can make my leg look too short so I tie them to make them look as though I'm only wearing the normal trainers. I rolled my jeans up so that they just sit neatly on top of the converse because I like people to know that they are high tops. Okay I need to stop talking about high tops. I really love the different colours in this cardigan but it is so itchy and I can only wear it with a long sleeved top under it.

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend.

Thanks for checking in I hope you enjoyed my latest opinions xx

Top - Zara
Under top - New Look
Jeans - Topshop (Leigh)
Shoes - Schuh
Bracelet - Argento
Rings - Topshop

I wore this outfit to the pub last Thursday night. It does look pretty casual but I really like it. I thought since I had done all my personal training I might aswell show off my new toned arms lol! Although when I look in the mirror I feel a lot more toned than what I look in these photos. Isn't that always the way? My mind is playing tricks! I got this top in Zara for only £7 and I really love it because it is a nice length and I like the way it is cut under the arms. It also comes in white and lilac. These converse are about six years old but I don't think I will ever stop wearing them. I have bought so many other colours of converse shoes and just other shoes in general but I keep resorting back to these ones. They are my all time fav!

Rolled sleeves




Jacket - Zara
T-Shirt - Asos (American Apparel)
Jeans - Hollister
Shoes - Schuh
Watch - Fossil

Sorry about the quality of these photos the colour isn't that great,I had to take them with my phone because when my brother is away he hides his camera because he thinks I don't know how to use it,even though it is very straight forward...brotherly love eh! 

I've got to the stage where every time I look at my outfit posts I think my clothes are so boring, does anyone else get that? I want some new bits and pieces that I can mix and match with older clothes. I never was one for buying a whole new outfit I try to just buy a top and put it together with jeans, trousers, shorts etc because I find it hard to buy nice jeans or trousers that suit me so when I do eventually get a pair I tend to keep them for a long time! 

This t-shirt is mens, I just got it because I loved the colour and it was reduced to £10 so I thought it was a bit of a bargain. I thought maybe it would go over leggings but it is too tight looking when I pull it down so I'm just going to wear it as a normal tee. I'm a bit weird with the whole sleeves rolled up look but I think I do it because I'm conscious of my broad shoulders and when the sleeves are rolled up it makes them look narrower, at least I hope it does!

Sunny Sunday




Jumper - Asos (American Apparel)
Jeans - River Island
Shoes - Schuh
Bag - Pull & Bear
Nail polish - Rimmel (black)

I usually don't do a post on a Sunday just because I'm usually in pj's all day but because I have to go round to my sisters for lunch I thought I'd get dressed! I only got these jeans a few weeks ago and probably have only worn them about three times but they have stretched slightly around the waist. They are still fine on the leg so I'm sure with a belt they will fit perfect again.

Asos have a good sale on at the moment so I ordered myself some tops and jumpers. I love this American Apparel jumper because it goes with so many things and it makes a change from my normal zip up hoodies. This jumper is navy but I also got it in black, and they were only £22 each which is good for American Apparel I thought because sometimes their stuff is so expensive for the most simple items.

Hope everyone is enjoying this lovely sunny weekend, I'm off to get some lunch!

Green hoodie


Jumper - New York 
T-Shirt - Topshop
Leggings - Primark
Shoes - Pull & Bear

I have literally sat around all day doing nothing and now when I have half an hour to get showered and changed and be at a friends house I decide to blog, so this is going to be very quick!

It took me about three days to find this jumper in New York, looking back now it wasn't really worth the hassle but at the time nothing would do unless I got it. I really wanted the green one but not every stall had that colour and then when I got a stall that had green they didn't have my size!! Finally I got one and it completed my trip, you can't leave New York without a 'I heart New York item of clothing.

Zara part 2




Jacket - Zara
T-Shirt - Topshop
Jeans - Hollister
Shoes - Asos
Bracelets - New look and Topshop 

So this is the second jacket I bought from Zara on line and I love it. Like I said I usually don't wear jackets like this and I honestly don't know why because they are such a handy piece of clothing to wear and completes the look of so many outfits. I'm wearing a size small but I cant actually button it which probably is a bit stupid but I thought I wouldn't button it very often anyway because then I would feel too claustrophobic.

I absolutely love brogues and these are my fav pair. I'm not sure if I have blogged about them before I don't think I have. I used to wear them with everything so they are pretty worn, which is probably a better look anyway but over the past couple of months I've just been wearing my vans so the brogues got rejected to the back of the shoe pile but have now managed to make an appearance again! 

It's so nice to be off work for a couple of days, hope everyone that is off enjoys themselves and has a lovely break. Fingers crossed for some sunshine!

Zara part 1






Jacket - Zara
T-Shirt - Topshop
Jeans - River Island
Converse - Schuh

I feel like I haven't blogged in ages I think it was because my outfits over the past week have consisted of hoodies, shorts and tracksuit bottoms! I got this jacket from Zara last week over the internet, I had tried it on in store in a medium and I thought it was a bit big but they didn't have a small so I got it on line. I really like it because of the two different colours and it's also quite light on. I don't usually wear jackets I'm more of a loose, soft zip up hoodie kinda girl but this one won me over.

I already have a pair of jeans similar to these ones except they are baggy from the top of the leg to the bottom, whereas these are boyfriend fit with a straight leg. I've wanted a pair of these for a while now because I can wear them casual during the day with my converse or with a vest top and heels in the evening and a nice up hair do with funky earrings. 

Of course when I ordered this jacket from Zara there were so many other things that I saw and had to get, so I did lol! I got another jacket that I love, I'm very much into my jackets these days.....I'm sure this phase wont last very long.

Chill and Chat






Jumper - Forever 21 (New York)
Top - Topshop
Leggings - Primark
Converse - Schuh

Tonight I'm heading round to my friends house because it was her birthday yesterday so we are just going to chill and chat. I can't wait I love nights like that because then I can just wear something casual and comfy!

I got this jumper when I was in New York, it is very light which makes it perfect for a summer evening, I have worn it quite a lot though so it looks a bit out of shape. This is the same Topshop top that I blogged about on Monday night. It is the only one I have that goes over leggings properly. I don't even know if any of these colours go together, I always just think that if they look okay in my head then they must go! I got these leggings in a size 8 but I'm usually a 10 or a 12 but I tried them on in those sizes and they were too baggy especially around the leg. So by getting the 8 I think they look nice and fitted however you wouldn't want me to bend over in front of you, you might get an eyeful!! Hence the long top! What better way to finish a casual outfit than by wearing converse. Enough said!

I am loving this great weather that we have got today lets hope it continues. Hopefully it has been as nice everywere as it has been here in sunny Dungannon!!

Sunshine!!







Jacket - H&M
Top - Topshop
Jeans - Topshop
Sunglasses - H&M

Wow we got some sun today it was such a nice change from what we have been getting, maybe July is going to be a good month, fingers crossed! I bought this top on Saturday another blogger had posted it and I really liked it. It comes in a few other colours which I think i'll have to buy aswell. I usually don't buy tops this long but because of my recent leggings purchase I thought these would be the perfect length to over them.

I got these jeans at Christmas time in Topshop and I wish they had have done them in other colours because I love how they fit. I tried them on in a 12 and they were a bit big so got a 10 and moved the button so that they now fit perfectly, so effectively they are probably an 11!
