Lipstick Loving with Lovedrobe.

Tunic: c/o Lovedrobe. Jeggings: Matalan. Clutch: Birthday present.  Flatforms: Next. Glasses: Max&Co at Specsavers. Belt: Asos Curve.

Before I type anything else I just want to say I LOVE THIS TOP/TUNIC! 

the print is my ultimate dream, I'm sure you're all aware by now that I'm more than a little addicted to lipstick and any print related to it and this is to die for. So when Lovedrobe asked if I'd like to review something from their site I knew it HAD to be this Lipstick print chiffon tunic. With it being chiffon I was worried that I'd get too warm in it as I'm just a really hot blooded person and always boiling but surprisingly for me this was fine! I decided to order a 22/24 as I wasn't sure on sizing and in the past I've usually had to wear a UK22 with Lovedrobe but I think I'd have gotten away with the 20 in this. However I do like it being more oversized so I can belt it and wear it with leggings. The sleeves are elasticated at the bottom with means you can roll them up like I have here or have them sitting on your lower arm. 

Here I've dressed it up more but I've also worn it with a scruffy pair of converse when I've been running errands so it's really versatile. I'm hoping to go out for drinks in Manchester soon with one of my old friends and I think this top would work perfectly with some wedges and a (p)leather jacket. If you can't tell I'm totally smitten with this and I will definitely be keeping an eye out on Lovedrobes website to see if they bring anymore super cute prints out! This look is also over on my YouTube channel and you can check it out now here!

Polly Grace - Tee Shirt Challenge.

Top and leggings: c/o Polly Grace. Clutch: birthday present. Shoes: Amazon. Sunglasses: Dorothy Perkins.

The lovely team over at Polly Grace popped me an email not so long ago asking if I'd like to take part in a little challenge by styling up a Top or tunic with a pair of leggings from their range. Now I love a good challenge and decided straight away that I'd have a go at dressing them up a little so it would be something that could work for a few drinks out in town and hopefully I think it does! 

Here I'm wearing this adorable pineapple printed tee in a UK 22/24 I wanted a relaxed fit so I could wear it with leggings but I think I would have been perfectly fine in my usual size. I was a little dubious as the next size down was an 18/20 and usually I'm more of a 20/22, I needn't have worried though! I paired it with the Polly Leggings but rolled them up once or twice as being 5'2 bottoms can often be too long on me! these are true to size in a UK20 and very comfortable to wear! Initially I wasn't sure what to accessorise this look with but once I put on my usual slick of red lipstick I knew I had to have my bag and shoes to match with it. My shoes are of the jelly variety and I also own them in black, I've since found them in an array of different colours so I may have to stock up as I seem to be able to wear these beauties for more than 10 minutes unlike how I am with 'normal' heels! 

Over all I'm pretty impressed with Polly Grace and I can't wait to see what they'll have for A/W! 

My lovely blogger friend Em over at Terrible Tumbles has also posted a style up challenge too and you can check that out here!

Footwear Woes with Evans Clothing.

Top: Made by me. Leggings: Matalan. Necklace: Black Heart Creatives. Clutch Bag: Gift. Shoes: c/o Evans Clothing.

I'm back with a new post for you in featuring footwear from Evans Clothing. They recently got in touch with me and asked if I'd be interested in working with them on a campaign about the problems us girls with wide feet often have and I snapped at the chance as I always struggle with shoes! I answered a questionnaire then I got to try a pair of shoes that would hopefully compete with my woes some of which were:

1. I genuinely have very wide feet, they remind me of a ducks.

2. Heels aren't really my friends, within ten minutes I'm usually crying.

3. I have a high instep so often straps across my feet won't work or will really cut in.

So Evans popped across these contrast scrappy heels. Which do include everything I tend to avoid in footwear. The low heel makes them easier to walk in mostly and I know from experience that Evans size 5EEE are pretty on point for me so they do fit well.  My only issues are that they do still cut in a little across my toes (however this is from first wear, When I wear them in around the house in fluffy socks I'm sure they'll be fine!) and the zip on the heel which makes them a dream to put on, no fiddly buckles(!) does however catch my ankle slightly, again though once worn in I don't think this would be any problem! I styled the shoes with my bardot top I created myself which was originally a skirt from the charity shop, my new lips clutch bag which was a birthday present from my babe Jess at college and the 3 lipstick necklace from one of my favourite jewellery designers Black Heart Creatives! P.S sorry for the lens smudge on my second photo, I really struggled getting snaps due to the sun though it does make it a nice change from blaming the rain! 

What are you footwear woes? You can see Evans full selection of shoes here.

Currently Coveting.

Skirt: Asos.

I NEED THIS SKIRT, IT IS THE SKIRT OF DREAMS... HOW HAVE I ONLY JUST SEEN THIS?!

In usual style this utter beauty in now sold out in all sizes and I haven't found it anywhere on Ebay as of yet.

This is the perfect skirt for me for summer and for a party I'm having to go to but have to be a car passenger for hours first! Cool, comfortable and I can match my lipstick to my lipstick printed skirt GENIUS! 

So basically I'm heartbroken I've missed out on this skirt and got so excited when I saw it in the Asos Mag that I ran around the house packing something I'd just received to send back so I could get this then BOOM it was sold out!!! So basically if any of you spot this ANYWHERE let me know as my heart won't be happy until this beauty is in my possession and on my person!
