Lanzarote love ❤️

                     🌴🍹🍍🌺☀️

So I'm one very lucky lady, as my mum and I are currently on a 3 week holiday on our favourite place, Lanzarote! We come every summer for our girly holiday and I look forward to my holiday clothes every year! This year has been no exception and I'm excited to share my holiday style with whoever wants to see. 

I always try to keep my look changing on holiday. So one night i will go for a full face of makeup (I brought my new fav tool this year, my urban decay naked palette, I can see now what all the fuss is about, I love it) and some nights I keep it casual and simple. 



One of my favourite outfits so far, these gorgeous H&M striped wide leg trousers, which I wore with a dove grey TOPSHOP cami and my TOPSHOP sale bag, a bargain at £18 for this gorgeous tan sued duffle. 

My staple holiday shoe has been a style steal from Primark! My snake skin sliders were £5 and I've hardly had them off my feet.

Topshop sale

Got to love a TOPSHOP sale ☺️ I love rummaging around to find a bargain! 

I found these amazing cream culottes for just £20!! They literally go with every top I'm planning to take on holiday 😍 and I snapped up some beaut faux snakeskin heels...I seem to have a knack for finding things at £20. 

I managed to get some staple joni jeans in a washed out black which look amazing styled up and left casual. I paired them today with a monochrome tropical print crop shirt I also bagged in the sale (perfect for holiday) both were £20! 



There are some great bargains online aswell. 


Had my eye on these for a little while but couldn't quite justify £95 for them. However, in the sale for just £45...how can u refuse! Can not wait to wear these when I get back from holidaying in Lanzarote! About to start some serious holiday blogging aswell ☺️

My new favourite


This skirt is my new favourite piece of clothing 😍 I am totally besotted. It's a great fit and very comfortable! I am always wary of a midi skirt like this as I feel they often make me look (and feel) bigger. However, this one seems to sit just right.

Hat - H&M £14.99
Top - old Topshop
Leather Jacket - old Topshop 
Skirt - Topshop £34 
Socks - Topshop £3.50
Shoes - Topshop £20

Girly gingham.


I think it's my latest coat purchase (along with my shopping, TOPSHOP and shoe addictions, this might be a good time to mention i'm also partial to a coat or two) this gorgeous buttery yellow, floral lace rain coat which I couldn't resist. It was £48 from TOPSHOP which might seem like a lot but honestly I think it's worth it. If you make sure to get it big enough to go over jumpers when it's cold, you can throw it on over pretty much anything! So if a sunny day in Scotland turns into the more likely rainy day...your covered! 





felt I had a girly vibe today pairing my gingham joni jeans with a pretty pale grey shirt. I wore new shoes form TOPSHOP, pale pink faux leather pointed flats called Viltaire. These also come in black and are only £16. I also added a little pink leather bow to my ponytail and pastel skeleton cameo ring. My cat eye glasses lend themselves well to this look aswell. 




Vinyl


Sometimes I feel the little 16 year old goth inside me creep out...and I put on my black vinyl mini skirt. To give it a more up to date kitsch feeling with my love heart print shirt buttoned to the collar, fluffy blue crop and peep toe boots. I think this look goes well with my chunky fringe and cat eye glasses, I also added a few curls to the end if my hair.

Mermaid details


Mermaid curls and jewellery straight from the sea. 




Palm Springs


It was a little sunnier yesterday so I got my tan on and my legs out! Palm tree skorts, white ribbed crop jumper and peep toe boots, all TOPSHOP. 


There was still a cold wind so I threw on my camel zara coat! I finished this outfit off with some gold hoop earings and my chartreuse hold all.

A shoe thing...



Public desire are on a roll with these amazing shoes! The cleated sole and platform makes them bang on trend, super easy to wear and comfortable. 
I am especially loving the nude patent uppers on the Kelis and the Farah loafer. Also the totally gorgeous, classic Alexia with the gold bar ankle strap and block heel, featured here is tangerine and white, also comes in aqua and black. 

I'm gonna be hitting their online shop hard come pay day!

Nail day

am super fed up with my little stubby fingernails which, even though I have long fingers and long nail beds, make my hands look like feet! 

Counting down the days for pay day so I can get my nails done ☺️ Can't decide what to get, I know a few places to go to get some amazing nail art, but I know where I like to go to get my acrylics the way I like. Is it acceptable to go somewhere for one and somewhere else for the other? I'm not sure about this part of nail ettiqiette. 

Loving the natural/nude look of these stiletto nails 


However I always love my nails when they are really dark, almost black, burgundy, grape or navy! I've always wanted to go and get love heart tips done properly, should I just go for that? 


Or...seeing as it's pay weekend, do I go for something abit more expensive and amazing, like these super cute mermaid themed nails? 

 
Thank goodness I have another week to make up my mind!

Hat shopping


Went hat shopping today, H&M have an amazing array of hats right now. I was looking for something I can wear right now and as the weather here in Scotland has taken a turn for the dull, I was deciding between a trio of black wide brim hats. The first was woven, so had a summer feel, which I am deffinately going to return and buy before I go on holiday, it's massive brim is the perfect kind of stylish for shading myself from the sun for some summer reading. 

The second had a shorter brim but I wanted more of a statement hat so I settled on number 3. 


This hat has a wider brim than the second, and just soft enough to flop slightly! Purchase perfection.

Early bird.




Ok so I was deffinately wearing far too many clothes for how today's weather turned out 🙊 but I did get dressed at 6:30 this morning when it was all cloudy I couldn't tell what way it was going to go! 

Cream overdosed shirt £30 from TOPSHOP, Bunny Bow sweatshirt (bought this last month so unsure how much) still available in TOPSHOP and pastel blue and white floral jeans are from primark last summer. 

It took me a minute to think of what shoes I could wear with this outfit and then genius struck...sparkly juju jellies ☺️  And the sparkly blue socks were the cherry on the cake I think!

Folk.


Today I went for quite a folky vibe. Wearing a dark blue shirt buttoned right up, TOPSHOP folk embroidered skirt and my fav H&M dark red fedora. 


I am still crushing on my beautiful Auckland peep toe boots so wore them to keep this outfit edgy.
