Denim Jacket: M&Co. Dress: Dorothy Perkins. Wellies: c/o Jileon Wellies. Hair: Thanks to Nancy!


I don't know about you but I've never been a massive fan of wellies, probably because I couldn't get cute one that would fit around my calves or fit my wide feet. In fact I recall having some tops of wellies when I was younger being slit down the back so I could get my legs in! But in the last 2 years I've found the joy that is Jileon Wellies who sent me a pair to try in November 2012 (check that post out here) which I loved back then but they have come on leaps and bounds since then! They were lovely enough to offer me the opportunity to review there new style and I'm genuinely blown away! 

 The buckles are perfect they actually lock so they don't come undone as you walk which ones in the past have. On where the clasp is for the buckle and cord it can't fall out all together which is another well thought out feature, having them made our of fabric instead of the rubber of the wellie has worked out perfectly. They're also insanely comfortable because they actually fit my feet so I don't get aching soles after wearing them for a few hours. These are almost closed on me and they fit up to a 53cm calf so would be perfect for all manner of calves. So not only are these practical and fit wonderfully but they're also really pretty, I adore the ditsy print of the flowers and the fact it doesn't cover the whole boot makes it easier to match with clashing prints and this time I wore them with this cute polka dot get up, red lips (which I'm rarely without) and my lovely vintage hairstyle, which is thanks to the lovely Nancy and I'll be showing you more snaps from this soon! This was slept on hair as well, super impressed! Back to the Wellies, I'd recommend Jileon to anyone with wide calves, I love these so much that I'm seriously lusting over this second pair!

Jileon Wellies have been even more fabulous by offering my readers a fabulous 20% OFF! Just use the code ROSE20 at the check out, this will be active for 2 WHOLE weeks! Let me know if you order any I'd love to see what you chosen!

Dress: Matalan. Belt: Asos Curve. Scarf: Vintage. Glasses: Gok Wan. Hair: Thanks to SGR

Not and overly exciting outfit but cute all the same. The dress is new from Matalan, I love it dearly if only it was a little shorter I'm thinking about buying a few and taking them up because I wear t-shirt dresses like this ALL THE TIME. Yes I am one of those people who buys copies of the same thing if I really love it. The belt is now becoming the favourite out of the ones I own which isn't many (I need more!) it adds a modern and rocky edge to any outfit, which I love. I just used it to tie the vintage elements and basic pieces together to make a lovely look you could wear out for drinks or just whenever you wanted to!

My now almost statement red lip made it instantly look more polished, it also worked beautifully with my amazing hair. I'll post the pictures up I took (badly) while the lovely lady Sarah did it, I want it to be a full post because I loved it so much! I wasn't sure this hairstyle was very "me" when I got home but it's growing on me the more I look at it.

You can also see a little of the clutter from my bedroom here at uni behind me, I'll be sad to see it go after Christmas, which is a long (and emotional on my part) story. I said months ago I'd do a little post about my room and I promise I will as soon as I can, read: as soon as I hide all the mess under my bed.
