rings - Primark



I was initially sceptical when Romwe kindly asked if I'd like to be sent these beetlejuice-esque leggings along with a t shirt of my choice. Although I am trying to emulate a ~minimal monochrome~ wardrobe, I thought these might be a little beyond my comfort zone.
Which they perhaps are, but I do enjoy trying on pieces that I never usually would and found this gave me the perfect opportunity to do so. Integrating them in to my wardrobe was a lot more easy than I'd imagined as is their quality.
The top is also lovely, again simple monochrome but with embossed detail to set it apart from a simple black top.





The weather this week has made the holidays pleasant so far, I anticipate my bank balance depleting further if the sun continues to shine:')

wouldn't it be nice if we were older

Rings - H&M

Shirt - Romwe

Shirt - Ebay

I honestly have no idea how I have filled these past few weeks, namely experimenting with costas various range of cold drinks and watching the US office. A healthy balance of social/antisocial activities in my mind anyway.

I picked up this druzy ring in H&M a few days ago, it was balanced precariously on a shelf next to the scarf I already had my eye on and for £1, I thought it pretty enough to purchase. Shirt one, is the romwe shirt with porcelain details I ordered a while back and have only recently worn. I love the delicate details kept to the collar and sleeves, especially in the royal blue shade. Shirt two is product of me trying to hunt down some ~festival gear~ e.g. a patterned shirt. I'm not usually a fan of paisley, but I like the monochrome colour scheme and the linear design of it. 

On my shopping outing, I also was drawn to the various beauty counters dotted around boots especially the benefit stand. 
Having been bought the infamous 'they're real' mascara for Christmas (which I loved) I was keen to check out more of their products. As my bank balance unfortunately doesn't stretch too far, I had a look in the sale section online and found this cute gift set 
which includes a full size perfume, and mini versions of the bestsellers 'porefessional' and 'they're real' for £19.67 which is only 20p more expensive than the full size mascara alone. 
Talking of perfume, I was also drawn to this Anni Sui, 'Live your dream' women's perfume. Although you're probably not supposed to judge perfume by their bottles, I tend to fall into this trap, and indeed, the pretty bottle did not disappoint on scent either.

Anyway, some summery tumblr inspiration to compensate for the sudden onslaught of rain..

young bloods can't be settling down



top & jeans - Primark
shoes - Dorothy Perkins
necklaces - Topshop
bag - vintage

Well this week has been suitably more chilled than the last, I have no idea how I've spent my time bar scrolling through abeautifulmess recipes and listening to the beach boys.

Anyway, here are some snaps from when my lovely boyfriend visited and we thought we'd take some ~arty outfit pics~ 




(*sigh* he's a great deal more fashionable than me)
Was also slightly concerned about wearing the white jeans, but they were only £9.99 from H&M and I couldn't resist, and am yet to spill anything on them which is miraculous. 

I am also headed to a festival again this year (Wilderness) which is in it's second year so will hopefully be lovely and chilled and sunny if this a+ weather keeps up! So yet another excuse to buy more clothes, as if I need another one..


Selling pairs of summery friendship bracelets on ebay, so if you're interested, click here!


Finally some outfit inspo to finish with, hope everyone is basking happily in the sun:)



















Also, what is your opinion on this jacket from romwe?
