Spring Time Wellies.

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!

It's raining, raining in my heart.

Yes i got soaked in the rain. Yes it was totally worth it.


It doesn't actually look wet in my photo, but believe me it was, i got really soaked on this walk, but it was with my best friend so really i couldn't care less about how i looked by the end.
This photo was taken before the rain started hitting me in the face so i still look ever so slightly tidy. Me and lily have done this same walk twice now not only is it really pretty but also because its quiet and it reminds her of Pride and Prejudice i won't go into detail to how much she loves it, but its like me and twilight.enough said.

The outfit i am wearing in this is nothing fancy it was more about the weather conditions than whether everything matched.haha
But i am wearing a loose fitted t-shirt from Dorothy Perkins and leggings also from there. And my wellingtons were New Look about 6 years ago, i was eleven when i got them i am now 17, you do the math. The Bandanna is from the cow boy section in a fancy dress shop, I've been after a red bandanna ever since i saw a hair tutorial in my vintage magazine and the only place i knew sold them was Kings Party Emporium in my town. They were really helpful and are always lovely whenever you go in.

Before i cry farewell for another post i need to thank my friend martin who photo-shopped the photo for me along with another image, which i both posted on Lookbook. He is a real dab-hand with anything involving computers (which is super good for me as I'm not.) and also has a web design site he's just started.
