Summer Outfits ♥

So these are some outfits I have put together for summer. Hope you enjoy!

 So this first outfit is great for a summer/spring walk, I found this pretty burgundy dress online but a floral one with a plain belt would look great as well. Over sized knitted cardigans work really well with dresses but you can wear them with anything really and finally the black boots go with the outfit really well but you could just as easily wear this outfit with sandals.

 The next outfit I have paired high-waisted joni jeans and a floral crop top with a cream cardigan and a denim mi pack with lace. The pendant necklace is subtle but adds something else and the flip flops can easily be swapped by other shoes, so this outfit would probably be for a more chilly day.

 This is probably my favorite outfit, it is great for a summer day at the beach. A lace top is great paired with these denim shorts and this bad hair day hat would add something different. The shoes I chose to go with this outfit are the classic white converse and a rose gold watch, a belt and a floral headband would add some color and a summer-like feel.

 The main piece of this outfit is the floral dress and the denim jacket goes really well with it and adds a more urban feel to the outfit, still keeping it classy. This outfit would work with or without tights and a small shoulder bag just adds a little something. Also, as with lots of the outfits, you could wear it with some strap sandals but I decided on white vans with frilly socks.

You could dress this outfit up or down, for an evening walk or a meal out. By adding a pastel pink bag, pumps, and a statement necklace it adds some bright color and adding the sunglasses adds something more to the outfit. This white skater skirt gives the outfit a more summer-like look and the black crop top is a nice contrast.

Hope you enjoyed reading this post and got some inspiration, and soon I will make some more posts like this because I really enjoy making them!

My April Favorites ♥

My April Favorites ♥

Hi, so there are some things that I have been loving this April, make-up, beauty and fashion. I am going to share a few of these with you in this blog post. :)

I have been loving the body shop Strawberry Shower Gel. It smells so good, I can't even tell you. My skin is quite sensitive but it is great and doesn't irritate it. I really recommend it and it is not that expensive.

This is my go to mascara as is really lengthens and extenuates your lashes. It as around £20 I think but is worth the money and it doesn't smudge!

So recently I have been using the Clinique deep comfort body butter, I find it really moisturizes your skin and as I have been using it more frequently, my skin has become a lot more hydrated.

Even though this candle is cheap (only about £1), it still smells really good and I am really pleased I got it. It has a fresh scent and the scent is blackcurrant and orchard from Primark.

 So a fashion piece that I have been really liking recently is a plain grey jumper, yes, I know that sounds boring but I think it is an essential all year round. For winter and autumn, you could wear it with a checkered shirt, jeans, and boots. But also for spring and summer, you could just as easily wear it with shorts and a statement necklace or with a cute collar poking out and I have been trying it out with lots of different styles.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing what I have been loving this April and see you soon. x
