vintage tube pants




 
Crop top - River Island, £7 (sale)
Jeans - Charity shop, £2.50
Jelly shoes - ASOS, £18
 
This outfit is so similar to one I blogged about a few weeks ago but I decided to wear super tight vintge tube pants instead of my baggy ones. I spent the morning yesterday trying on outfits to go with my jelly shoes and I think this one really works. I love the contrast between the light blue of the denim and the jet black of the crop top and jellies.

the heat



 
Crop top - Primark, £2.50
Skirt - ASOS, £11 (sale)
Necklace - Topshop, £1.50 (sale)
 
It's ridiculously hot today and I've spent nearly an hour trying to find something to wear. I might wear this skirt but I feel too covered in this 30 degree heat. This is one of skirts I ordered off ASOS the other day and the only one I'm keeping. Out of the 3 I ordered I know I'll wear this the most. I want to get a collection of midi skirts together before Uni because they are so easy to throw on with a plain tee. This skirt is a really nice floral print in a swim suit material so practically sticks to me! I just teamed it with my simple grey crop top as the pattern of the skirt is crazy enough!

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!
