Summer Neon

Dress: Primark

Belt: Primark

Jacket: River Island

Bracelets: h&m

Ring: Topshop

Tan sandals (unseen): Miss Selfridge

I wore this outfit at the begging of the month when I went out for a meal with my mum and her friends for her birthday before ditching them and heading off to the dogs with my friends for another birthday. I had recently  just bought this river island jacket and was determined to wear it. I chose the simple white primark dress as it was a really nice day and it was easy to wear. I wore a rose gold bracelet with a silver bracelet and I liked the effect of the mixed metals and textures. 

I just attempted taking some pictures for my first styling post which features a yellow mullet skirt. I am hoping that the pictures will turn out ok - I really struggled to find a spot in my house which has decent light and a plain background (such a spot doesn't exist in my house). I decided on the kitchen as that is the only plain wall in my house (everywhere else is blocked my furniture).

I am rewarding myself for finishing 2 out of my 4 essays by writing a sneaky blog post. A strange reward as I have spent the last week glued to my laptop typing away however writing about my clothes is much more exciting than my coursework. I bought this dress over easter while at home as I adored the pattern on it. The dress has cut outs at the side which is right where my bra goes so I will only wear it with a top or jacket on as it looks sloppy with the bra showing. I think it will be perfect for on holiday though as it is really light weight cotton and the zip at the front means it is easy to throw on. I wore a white vest top with a faint aztec print on it, I have fallen in love with this vest top, I am going to have to go back to primark and stock up on a few colours as they are so easy to wear. I love the vest over this dress as you can also see a hint of the black hearts from the dress through it.

I realise that this outfit is basically a primark advert, I didn't realise everything was from the same shop till I put it all on however it was all bought over a long period of time - I have had my grandad cardigan for years now. It is one of my favourite pieces in my wardrobe as it is super comfy and warm. I will wear this over anything, I love wearing it with my dresses to create a causal look or layering it with my parka mac.

I got a huge box from asos this morning, which quickly got rid of all my anger towards the postman at half 8 this morning. I ordered two pairs of boots from the sale which I have been lusting over for ages and I finally took the plunge when my student loan came in. I also bought this cross hand harness. I know I have been declaring my love for everything in this post but I promise this is last - I love this!! It is really simple but it looks  like I have put a lot of effort it, which is my favourite kind of piece. I can see myself getting a lot of wear out of this as it will go with almost any outfit. I think it works perfectly with my edge-y girly style.

Skirt: Primark

Belt: New Look

Jacket: Miss Selfridge

Boots: KG

Bag: Vintage Fair

Necklace: Vintage Fair

I bought this skirt the other week during a very brief spell of sunny weather and it has been mocking from my wardrobe ever since. I nearly wore it the other day but I chickened out as I didn't think I could pull it off with the weather being so miserable. I finally plucked up the courage and put it on. I decided to go for a simple look with a slight edge so I paired it with my usual black tights, boots and jacket and a simple white tee.

It was my best friend from home birthday yesterday so some of the girls celebrated by going round to hers for some chilli (pizza for me) and some drinks. I don't get to see my friends from too much as we are all at different Unis and it difficult to find a time when we are all free but most of us are back for easter so it was really good to see them and catch up with everyone. We spent the time trading drinking games before heading off to the pub quiz which we lost by a mile. 

I have been busy with family stuff and work this past week. I never seem to have time to do outfit posts when I am out with my mum as I never have time because she is always waiting for me. I always ending up doing her make up though so she only has herself to blame. We went shopping to find my mum some new bits so naturally I ended up buying myself a few things while we were out. I will try and do a haul sometime this week.

I have been very lazy with my outfit posts in the past two weeks. I am home for easter but I have 4 essays to do so I have just been wearing leggings and pj bottoms as they are comfy and I am being lazy at home. I will be doing more stuff next week as it is easter weekend so hopefully I will remember to snap a few pictures for you. 

Rambling aside, I did manage to take an outfit pic on saturday which I completely forgot about until today. My family from Sunderland was down this weekend so we went out for some tea and then to the pub for a family friends birthday. I wanted something causal (well my idea of casual) so I wore the white primark dress I bought last week and paired it with my usual black tights, black boots and leather jacket. 

One of my friends was laughing at me stocking up on black tights last week as we had a few days of really nice weather however the coldness and rain has returned with a little sprinkling of snow. I love summer fashions however I have the palest legs known to man and they can never been seen without a weeks worth of fake tan so I am happy that I can wear my black tights for the time being. My legs look a lot better in black tights and I would hate to shatter the illusion by unleashing them on the public, they have also been known to blind people with their whiteness so it for everyones benefit that I keep wearing my black tights.

Here is a quick snap of my tight-less legs. I wore this last week when we had some sunshine. I put two layers of tan on just so they would look like normal legs however as you can see they are still on the pale side. I feel very naked without tights.

I thought I would share my goodies from primark with you which I bought yesterday. I live in dresses when it is sunny, which it has been for the past free days so I thought I would pick up some simple everyday dresses as I haven't bought any new ones in a while. I also picked up another shirt as I am helpless to resist and I have seen this on a few people and I have been wanting it for a while. I also picked up a skirt, I have been looking at similar ones for a while now but never bought one. I was going to buy black but they were all out of my size so I picked the yellow one up to try on. I am really glad I got the yellow one now as I wear a lot of black and this feels a lot more summery, however I do think I will get a black one if I do see one. 

I did spend quite a bit in there but I did get some essentials like black tights, pj's and also some underwear. A lot of people have been saying that primark has been getting more expensive and I can see what they mean compared to what it used to be like however I still think that is cheap when compared to other high street shops.
