Sik silk

A fairly new brand called 'Sik Silk' are becoming more and more popular with their unisex online clothing store! The now well known fashion brand is hitting this generation with stylish sports wear such as sports shorts, football jerseys, vests and much more! 

I love the originality of their designs, as unlike most jerseys and vests you see in shops these have prints and bold colours to make them stand out and become more of a fashion piece rather than sports clothing!

I've recently purchased a Sik Silk wooly hat for my boyfriends birthday. It's actually beautiful! The hat is sooo soft and comfortable that I want to keep it for myself. Its stretchy enough to fit all head sizes but tight enough to hold on to smaller heads!(which is great for my tiny head) the website was soo user friendly and the delivery was quick with no problems at all. 

The price of their items are a little more expensive than highstreet prices but for the designer quality and individuality it's worth forking out a bit more money for something you know is worth it!! I would 100% recommend you guys try this brand out! Let me know what you think and comment below! X

Pretty little pink

OOTD
Yes winter is coming! Crack out those wooly jumpers and knitted scarves but that's no reason to have to hide away those skater skirts until next year? Don't forget skin tights are a quick solution to covering up those tanned pins for the colder seasons!

The moment I laid eyes on this beautiful pink lace shirt I knew I had to buy it!! Yes I admit its rather on the skimpy side but nothing a nude bra or vest can't fix. I've had this shirt for about 2 years now and actually I haven't worn it as much as I probably could have, but this winter I definitely plan on wearing it more! 

I adore frilly socks!! In fact I adore all socks! But I just love any outfit that can be instantly made girly simply by adding a pair of cute socks! 

Lace shirt// Zara- around £20
Skirt// River Island- £15
Socks// Republic- £10(came in a pack of two)

Flared creating

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while been a bit busy with UCAS applications and UNI hunting but now I'm back! 

Pattern cutting last week was soo productive, I spent the whole day making and perfecting a pattern and flared top toile.
Yes it needs hemming but I am honestly rather proud of the outcome! This is definitely a pattern I am going to take forward and make my own by experimenting with different lengths and fabrics! 
I can honestly say that being at college has been one of the best experiences of my life, i am absolutely loving it and i hope that UNI will be just as good! 

Keep an eye out for these cute little tees!

Present Time!



In my recent attempt to become an absolute gym bunny and get the summer body of my dreams I've joined a gym and stocked up on some of the latest gym wear. I've been wanting a pair or Nike Free Runs for the gym, and Nike Air Max's for sooo long it's unreal but I've never had enough money to buy a pair. Having just got back from holiday my boyfriend said he had a surprise for me only to find he had bought me a pair of Nike Roshe Runs! (You could imagine my excitement) a few pairs of leggings and a dress that I will blog about later on.

These are probably the most comfortable shoes I have EVER owned! They're soo cute!Perfect to wear out for a casual look  and to the gym! These bright pink beauties come in a range of colours for both men and women! Can't wait to get in the gym and try them out!

He also gave me these beautiful geometric high waisted leggings from boohoo, I absolutely love them! Sooo soft with a bold print on, perfect to team with a plain white vest and bold,bright shoes!
Comment below and let me know what you think!! 

As these where presents I don't actually know the exact prices of them sorry! 

Trainers- Nike Roshe Runs - Foot Asylum
Leggings- Boohoo

Holiday coral!

Yesterday I went shopping for some holiday must haves and I have to say I came home with quite a bit! I'm really not one for saving money especially when it comes to clothes and shoes! 

My mum actually pointed out this cute coral coloured floaty dress. originally I didn't think I would end up buying it, especially as its a luminous colour and I don't really like wearing those colours. However this is definitely one that looks better worn than on the hanger and with a tan it will really stand out! It's soo soft and comfortable and I love the way it hangs of the body effortlessly! 

Now I have something to confess! I never thought I would ever say this but I bought this years summer heels from Shoe Zone!! I couldn't actually believe my luck when they had the exact shoes I've been looking for selling for such a reasonable price! £9.00 reduced from £14.00 an absolute bargain! These snake skin wedges are sooo comfortable, fit really well and they aren't to high which is exactly what I need as I'm not too good at walking in massive heels! I can honestly say that I have always been a bit apprehensive about shops like Shoe Zone however this has definitely changed my mind! 

You can dress this look up with a pair of chunky holiday heels and golden or wooden toned bracelets! Or for a more casual look team with a pair of comfy sandals and a beach hat! 

Let me know of any great summer steals you guys have found and comment below!! :) 

Dress// New Look-£15.00
Wedges// Shoe Zone-£9.00

Colourful Fingers!

Recently I've taken a fancy to constantly having my nails painted! In all fairness my nails are probably the smallest in the world but what girl doesn't love them painted? A few weeks ago I discovered Maybelline's Color Show by Colorama nail varnish it really is one I'd recommend trying and I find myself creating a bit of a collection from the large range of colours they sell! The nail varnish drys quickly, constantly looks glossy,only one coat of nail varnish is needed, doesn't chip easily and if I remember correctly is only £2.99 bargain! With my terrible nail biting habit, and love for nail varnish I'd say this is the perfect find for me and I definitely recommend you try it! Let me know of any colours and makes you guys like and comment below ill give them a try! :) 

List of colours from left to right:
357 Burgundy kiss
549 Midnight Taupe
150 Mauve Kiss
77 Nebline
83 Pink Bikini
651 Cool Blue
