Fashion Friday #3

It's a renowned fact that us bloggers love shopping. It's also a renowned fact that we can't just go out shopping and buy one item. We have to buy a selection of clothes/beauty items. Hence why we pretty much invented the shopping haul. Yesterday, I was meant to be in work at 10 but got into town about 45 minutes early so off to shop I went. I haven't been in Primark for ages and I've seen loads of bloggers purchasing loads of items from there so I went in there to see what I could find. The only issue I have with Primark is that in my local one, they never have my size in anything nice! However, I was a lucky girl yesterday! Here's the things I bought:


I thought this top was super cute for just £6! I love bib collars on tops. I've got loads of skirts that this will go with too.


These shirts had a full display to themselves. The shirt comes in black, white, bright blue, this light blue, baby pink, yellow and mint green I think. For £8, if it washes well, I'll be buying it in a few of the colours!


The same goes for this cardigan. For £6, it's basically a steal. Again, if it washes well, I'm buying it in a few colours. The material is super soft and almost silky too so it feels lovely.


This skort is so summery and super cute but I didn't realise I bought the wrong size so I have to take it back. For £10, it will look so nice with a white vest and flats.

I also work near That's Entertainment and ended up buying DVDs. Oops!

Nine and Laguna Beach Season 2
As well as my Primark haul, I also purchased some box sets from Amazon last week and they finally arrived yesterday too!

My mum also gave me a hand-me-down yesterday because this top has shrunk in the wash. I never ever get hand-me-downs from her but I rather like this top.

Fashion Friday #2

If you're a regular reader of my blog, you'll know how much I love leather. Well, pleather anyway! But with it coming up to summer (hopefully!), I thought wearing a black leather jacket constantly would be too wintery. Pastels are such a big trend that I decided to buy this pink leather jacket:


Unfortunately I can't find it on the website anymore but it was £30 from Matalan. I managed to buy mine from one of my local Matalans so have a look in there if you like it. After purchasing it, I saw Patricia from PeeXo had the same one! (post here). I love the way she's styled it with neutrals as I think that's the best way for the jacket to stand out but I think it would look cute paired with other pastels and maybe even a block-coloured dress.

Sorry that today's post is so short. I've got so much revision to do so I need to get a lot done today!

Fashion Friday #1

For my first Fashion Friday, I'm going to focus on my favourite lady in the whole world: Taylor Swift. I'm an obsessive Swiftie, from her music to her style. I've always been a fan of her style but I'm loving her new outlook on clothes. So far in April since living in New York, she's been sporting some gorgeous looks and here's a peek at them!


I'm a huge fan of coloured denim and have been for years but I don't think I pull it off very well. Taylor always looks feminine and elegant. I love her preppy style and love of patterns and colour.


Shorts are a staple in her wardrobe; she wears them onstage frequently. And with those pins, why not? She could be mistaken for a model with those legs!


Girly is a word I'd use to describe Miss Swift which means dresses are aplenty. Because of her frame, she can pretty much get away with any shape or style of dress, lucky girl!


She also knows that every girl's best friend is an LBD. I love how all three of these are different styles and keep black from looking drab! They all have detailing on them of some sort which is so her.


Skater skirts are a style that fit every figure. Curvy, slender, tall, petite. Obviously being model-esque she looks amazing but they really do suit any shape.

Bear in mind, these pictures were all taken in April. I've always loved her red carpet style as well as her street style but only recently have I started to notice her street style properly. She always looks so put-together, whether she's dressing up or down. She needs to look stylish with all those celebrity friends around her!
