Spring Style Essentials.

As I write this there are blue skies, the sun is shining and the trees are blossoming (FINALLY.) And although I haven’t seen a butterfly or bumblebee yet, the sun is enough to shut me up for now. It’s still a bit chilly out but a few daffodils are enough to start picking out some pretty pieces. So, I thought I’d share a handful of my picks for spring…

Lacy Strappy Bras.
I am definitely not a jewellery person- I wish I was, but I’m just too forgetful. However, I never (well usually don’t) forget to wear a bra. I  love wearing these underneath a shirt with a couple of buttons undone or a low-cut top. They are so sassy and just kinda jazz up the chest- basically my alternative to a necklace.

Pleated Midi Skirts.
If I was a piece of clothing I’d be a midi skater skirt, they are by far my fav thing to wear. I love 50s/60s fashion and when I wear these I always feel like I’m channelling that. I will admit I have a few…but I am currently obsessed with this pink velvet one from ASOS. They look super cute with converse or dressed up with heels.

Culottes. 
Whenever I wear ‘usual’ trousers, I always feel like I’m going to work but culottes have that casual look to them- especially with some trusty converse. & they are so so comfy.

Pretty Tops.
Everything looks prettier when the sun comes out and frilly, stripy, colourful, detailed (the list goes on) tops look so good in Spring. & the best thing about pretty tops is that you can wear them with anything e.g. trousers, culottes, jeans, skirts…

Cute Bags.
Little pretty bags to make those pretty outfits look even prettier. A bag like this one is perfect, as it fits everything in but it’s still small enough to hold as a clutch (the amount of tiny bags I am no longer able to use because of having an iPhone Plus is v v sad!)

C O N V E R S E.
And last but by no means least, my fav shoes in the whole wide world. My step-sis is currently planning her wedding and she said how she plans to wear converse under her wedding dress- and that’s all I need to say really. They’re just the best shoe, they go with everything, last for 10000s of years and always look super cute. Love you Chuck Taylor X

June Favourites.

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream- Cairo.
This is a really beautiful colour, it’s very neutral and subtle but still very noticeable.

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream- Copenhagen.
I have always been obsessed with a bold lip and I saw this colour on a Zoella video and knew I had to have it, it didn’t disappoint!

ASOS Cat Eye Sunglasses- Pink.
I love love love these sunglasses, they are like matte rubber plastic material and I also ordered them in black. However, I’ve been reaching for the pink way more. I think I’ve had a nudey/pinky theme going on for the past month. You will notice the theme…

Barry M Molten Metal Nail Polish- Copper Mine.
The theme continues… I didn’t wear pink nail polish for years until I found this colour and now I am always wearing it. It’s a really pretty rose gold colour.

Zara Round Neck Coat- Pastel Pink.
I have a very dangerous coat obsession and I think that’s why I love winter because it means coat shopping! In the summer people usually enjoy being coatless and embrace it. Not me… I mean I don’t wear thick warm coats, but thinner jackets that are of a summery colour. This pastel jacket is perfect for one of my summer jackets. I usually end taking it off wherever I go. However, in the UK it can rain at any time so I just use the excuse ‘just in-case!’

Paris Hanging Photos- 
I ordered these little photos from eBay a while back but I completely forgot about them. So, I finally got around to digging them out and decided to hang them.

Bruschetta- Mix for Bruschetta.
I love Italian food and I cook lots of Italian food. This little jar is ready made mix, all you have to do is grill or toast your bread and add this on top! It tastes amazing and is so easy and quick.

The Real Housewives of Melbourne.
Reality shows are definitely my guilty pleasure and this show is sooo good!
The Australian accent is music to my ears so it makes it even easier to binge watch this show. I’m already feeling v sad to finish season 3, even though I just started it!
It’s so funny and fully of drama and gossip like any RHO… show.

Coco Chanel Mademoiselle. 
This will always be one of my favourite perfumes however, I haven’t been using it as much as I usually do. However, I was reminded when I sprayed it last month how much I love it and I think I used it every single day in June!

Wilko Rocco Silver Photo Frames.
These photo frames really complete my bedroom, they are great value for money but look expensive.
