back




 
Vest - Primark (old)
Blouse - Charity shop, £3
Trousers - ASOS, £13 (sale)
Juju jellies - ASOS, £18 (with student discount)
Necklacce - Topshop, £1.50 (sale)
 
My £100+ ASOS order finally arrived this afternoon. So happy with these trousers and Juju's! I've been wanting a pair for so long but just never got round to getting some. The trousers are a nice silky material which hang nice and are slightly high waisted. I really needed some plain black trousers because I am reluctant to spend £40 on jeans and seem to have too many other patterned bottoms.
The only clothes I've worn the past 2 weeks are my work uniform and crops tops and skirts. I'm really looking forward to having a few more days off work so I can actually put together some proper outfits.

too hot to compile a proper outfit



 
Top - Bershka, £2.99
Levi Shorts (DIY) - eBay, 99p
 
Today is the first day since the heat wave began that I've actually had time to sunbathe. With working and socialising, getting a natural tan has been hard! I'm super brown on my arms though and had fake tanned everywhere else.
I haven't worn denim shorts in so long, but today I just can't be bothered to find an outfit because it is way to hot. I love this top which I bought from Bershka when I was in Tenerife in February. I forgot I had it, but found it this morning. It's great to wear over a strapless bikini because it has such a great back.
Off to go sunbathe some more...

bright pink & monochrome





Skirt - H&M, £3.99
Top - Primark, £4
 
I love the contrast between the monochrome and the vibrant pink of the chiffon top. I bought this skirt yesterday because I am seriously lacking in skirts/general summer bottoms. It's a bit bigger than I would like as I can tell it'll stretch pretty easily but the XS looked tiny!

short shorts




 
Shorts - Primark, £4
Top - Primark, £5
 
It's pretty rare to see me in shorts now. Back last summer, I was obsessed with high waisted denim cut offs, but I can't actually remember the last time I wore a pair. I've sold most of them on eBay now anyway.
 I love these (very see through) monochrome shorts from Primark which were an absolute bargain at £4! I wore this outfit in the day yesterday and did feel a little bare with so much flesh on but it was so hot so I sort of got away with it. The shorts can be worn pretty high waisted but I sat them just on my hip bones so my bum cheek weren't on show!

£5 trench coat






Trench coat - Charity shop, £5
Jeans - Primark, £11
Top - Primark, £5
Rings - Accessorize, £1.80 (sale)
 
I am totally in love with my new trench coat. It's a staple piece in a wardrobe which I have been lusting after for years but could never justify paying £60+ for. When in Topshop about an hour before I bought this one, I never speny £35 on one in the sale but luckily I didn't. It's a size too big but the fit is still okay and at £5, I can't really complain. It's originally from Tesco but it was probably still quite a bit of money. I am so happy with it and I want the weather to cool down just so I can wear it!

bringing back the checked shirt






Crop top - ASOS, £4 (sale)
Skirt - Internacionale Kids, £9
Necklace - Primark, £3
Shirt - Latitude Festival, £3
 
It's too hot to even think about putting a proper outfit together so today I've thrown on this new crop top, a black skater skirt and I'm taking this checked shirt to put on if gets chilly. I haven't worn a checked shirt for about a year when I was going through my 'indie' stage *cough cough*

skin tight purple



 
Skirt - H&M, £7 (sale)
Vest - H&M, £2.99
Necklace - Primark, £3
 
These photos give absolutely no justice to this skirt at all! It's a lovely deep purple colour in a skin tight, thick bodycon material which sits at a good length (just above the knee). I thought the pop of neon from the necklace would be a great addition.
 
I'm currently in the middle of working 50 hours in 5 days and I've just finished an 11 hour shift :( tired is an understatement!

coral and white




 
Crop top - Primark, £2
Midi skirt - ASOS, £11 (sale)
Necklace - Dorothy Perkins, £5 (sale)
Leather jacket - New Look, £6 (sale)
Bag - H&M, £29.99
 
Went shopping today wearing this. I bought this crop top the other day and went back and bought the black and grey versions because they are perfect to go with both midi and skater skirts. I love this bargain from ASOS which I bought last week (it's now in the sale for £6!). It has a cool coral, grey and white pattern against a black background which is something different. I bought it in a size 8 as I wanted it to be super tight but it's so tight that I can barely walk!
