Summer Ready Skin

I don't know about you, but once Summer starts rolling round I always seem to take much better care of my skin and try to stick to some kind of body care routine. I'm very good at keeping up my skin care routine all year long, but for my actual body I kind of neglect using products on an everyday basis during the colder months. It's most likely because during the Winter it's so easy to cover up with jumpers and thick tights that really, it doesn't overly matter if you do forget to slap on a bit of body butter in the morning!

But now that it's starting to get slightly warmer, I think it's always good to put together a simple yet effective body care routine just to get you back into the swing of things and prepare yourself (and the world) for starting to show a bit more skin! The main areas I like to focus on are my arms and legs as I love wearing little cami tops and skirts when it's warm, so these are the selection of products I've been using recently to start preparing my skin for the Summer!

My body care routine starts whilst I'm in the shower and one of the first products I will use is an exfoliator. The one I've been loving recently is the Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Breakfast Scrub (£8.00 LINK). This stuff smells incredible, if you love sweet, rich scents then this will be right up your street! This sugar scrub helps buff away dry skin and with the added shea butter leaves your skin feeling lovely and soft, plus smelling amazing. I will use this around twice a week as it's a fairly rough body scrub, definitely not something you'll want to use everyday!

Next, if I'm shaving my legs, I will reach for my Soap & Glory Whipped Clean Shower Butter (£7.00 LINK) which is a body wash and in-shower body butter in one. I don't really use this as a body wash but as a replacement for shaving gel as it lathers up really well and leaves my skin feeling super smooth! If you also don't have much time in the mornings, this would be amazing to apply at the end of your shower to leave your skin feeling soft all over. Again, like all Soap & Glory bath products, it has a beautifully rich scent that smells good enough to eat!

My final in-shower step is to use a skin softening body wash. I've been using the Nivea Diamond Touch Cream Shower Oil (£1.99 LINK) everyday for the past few months and have been really loving it! It has a beautiful, creamy floral scent that really lingers on the skin long after a shower. It also lathers up into lots of luxurious little bubbles that leave my skin feeling soft and clean.

Once out of the shower I immediately apply some form of body lotion/ oil. My absolute favourite body product to use during the Summer is The Body Shop Brazil Nut Beautifying Oil (£10.00 LINK). This dry oil sinks into the skin really quickly and leaves no oily residue behind, meaning you can get dressed straight away! I also love the super sweet scent of this product as it instantly reminds me of being on holiday last year! This is also a great product to use if you have just shaved your legs as it doesn't irritate the skin like a normal fragranced body lotion would. 

If I'm after something a bit thicker that will really help hydrate my skin then I will reach for my Soap & Glory Smoothie Star Body Milk (£10.00 LINK). This is a great product to use if you have used both the scrub and body wash in the shower as it really helps ties all those amazing sweet scents together. As this is much thicker than my oil I will use this around 2/3 times a week to help moisturise my skin and leave it feeling amazingly soft.

So this is my super simple guide to getting Summer ready skin! With just 5 products all from the high street this little routine is affordable, easy to use and works really well. I know we're still a few weeks off from actually being able to bare a bit more skin, but it's always good to prepare so that when it is finally warm enough you can go bare-legged without having to worry!

Miss Selfridge Wish List | Pastels & Florals

For years now Miss Selfridge has been one of my favourite places to shop for the latest fashion pieces as I've always been drawn in by their cute girly prints and gorgeous accessories! The other day I was having a browse through their website and found so many lovely pieces that I would just love to own! So I thought it was only natural to create a wish list post and share my fashion finds with you all. As you can see I went for a very specific theme here and seemed to only pick out floral and pastel pieces - for those who know me this probably won't come as much surprise!

1. Hawaiian Print T-Shirt | LINK | & Hawaiian Print Mini Skirt | LINK |

Despite co-ordinating pieces being such a huge trend recently, I haven't actually got round to picking up a set of my own! I spotted this t-shirt and skirt combo  and thought the print was absolutely gorgeous and perfect for the summer. I can imagine this would look amazing with a pair of heels and totally dressed up for a night out with the girls!

2. Floral Printed Skort | LINK |

 Since originally spotting these floral skorts on the website, they have now become a new welcome addition to my wardrobe! I love the print on these and I think they can be easily dressed up or down depending on what you pair them with. I actually wore them out this weekend with a loose black cami and black wedges and I loved how it looked! What I love about skorts is that they look like a super cute swishy skirt, yet you have the security of them being actual shorts - always good for a windy day haha! 

3. Blue Baroque Floral Print Top | LINK |

What really drew me in about this top are the colours and that it has little sleeves. I own so many cami style tops at the moment so I'm trying to add some tops with actual sleeves into my wardrobe and I think this would be a great piece to have. I also like that the pattern is quite simple and muted which means you can just pair the top with some light wash jeans for an effortlessly pretty outfit! 

4. Mid Wash Crochet Trim Shorts | LINK |

The denim shorts from Miss Selfridge have all been really cute recently and this pair in particular caught my eye! I like how there's a small amount of crochet detailing at the bottom and I think paired with the top above it definitely adds a little something to the overall look.

5. Floral Overlay Playsuit | LINK |

I always find blue and purple florals to look so lovely on clothes so this playsuit really appealed to me! I think it's really sweet and the kind of piece you can wear for any occasion. I've always been a huge lover of playsuits as well as they're so easy to wear and I definitely prefer them to dresses!

6. Coral Embellished Vest | LINK | 7. Rose Floral Jogger | LINK |

The next 2 pieces I found seemed made a really cute outfit, so I thought I would talk about them together! I really do love my corals so this top would be something really simple to add to my wardrobe that would go with pretty much anything - especially these floral joggers! As the colour of the top picks out the corals in the roses on the joggers, I think these 2 would look so lovely together! Plus these floral joggers would make a great transitional piece for Summer/ Autumn when the evening get a bit cooler yet you still want a pretty Summery print!

8. Pastel Green Stone Necklace | LINK | 9. White Stone Flower Necklace | LINK |

Miss Selfridge has always been my favourite shop to buy jewellery from as it's quite inexpensive and is good quality. I do mainly buy my jewellery from their sale but these 2 necklaces both look too pretty to pass up! I have many statement necklaces in my collection but nothing like these 2 and I think they would be perfect for glamming up a Summer time outfit!

10. Eden Summer Flat | LINK |

I have been on the hunt for this style of shoe for quite some time and I keep looking at these Miss Selfridge ones! I'm not too sure if they're classed as sandals but they are definitely they kind of shoe that everyone needs in the Summer. I think these would look really cute with midi dresses or a simple Summer's day outfit - I will definitely be on the hunt for these next time I'm in Miss Selfridge.

11. Pink Flower Head Band | LINK |

Flower head bands are perfect for festivals and weddings, yet even thought I'm not going to either any time soon I still really want one of my own! I think they look so cute on and if I could pull off wearing one everyday, I totally would!

12. Pastel Stone Ring Pack | LINK |

Finally I spotted these really cute pastel stone rings and thought they would help complete any outfit during the Summer time! As you get a selection of shades to wear, you can swap and change depending on what you're wearing or you could wear all 3 for some pastel bling overload!

So these are some of the things from the Miss Selfridge website that I have really been loving! If you don't shop at Miss Selfridge very much I totally recommend that you pop into their store more often as they always have such a lovely selection of clothes and accessories to choose from! Thank you for reading and do let me know in the comments your thoughts on my Miss Selfridge wish list.

Spring & Summer Fashion | Floral Prints

When it comes to the Summer time, floral prints are an absolute staple in my wardrobe. In all honesty I love wearing florals all year long, but there's something about the warmer weather where I like to wear brighter and more colourful flower prints! I thought I would put together a few outfits to show you all some of my favourite floral pieces I have found on the high street recently plus different items you can pair them with.

In each of the outfits I have kept with the same sandals purely because they are my favourite things to wear in the Summer time and they are all that I live in! Of course you can swap them up for flats, flip flops, wedges or even heels, this is just what I would pair these outfits with!

Top - Oasis | Shorts - New Look | Sandals - New Look | Necklace - Miss Selfridge | Bracelet - Miss Selfridge | Earrings - Miss Selfridge (similar)

I spotted these gorgeous bright blue and pink floral shorts a few weeks back in New Look and luckily there was one pair left in my size. I absolutely adore the colours in these shorts and they definitely scream Summer time! As these are quite a bright print, I've paired them with a simple loose fitting cami from Oasis - this way you can easily dress up the outfit with a statement necklace. I also love wearing my denim jacket with this outfit when it gets a bit chillier in the evenings. This definitely dresses down the outfit but I think it makes it cute for evening BBQs or parties. I think this is a great outfit for the day when worn with sandals or flats, but it can also be worn with killer wedges to make a night time outfit!

Top - Oasis | Kimono - New Look | Shorts - Miss Selfridge (similar) | Sandals - New Look | Necklace - Accessorize | Bracelet - Miss Selfridge |
Earrings - Miss Selfridge (similar)

After weeks of hunting for a simple yet affordable kimono for my holiday, I came across this really cute one in the teen's section of New Look! At only £12.99 is was pretty much half the price of the ones sold in the women's section plus as it had such a sweet print, I couldn't pass it up. Floral kimonos are great for adding pattern and texture to a really simple outfit or can be thrown over a bikini when you're relaxing by the pool. As the background colour of this kimono was black, I decided it would look best over a simple black cami which I tucked into my Miss Selfridge denim shorts. I love that these shorts have a really pretty trim and a slightly scalloped edge as it adds that extra bit of detail to the outfit!

To add a bit more floral-ness to the outfit, I paired it with one of my current favourite necklaces which is a daisy chain choker. This necklace can be pretty much worn with anything and I really love how well it goes with this outfit!

Top - Forever 21 | Jeans - Oasis | Sandals - New Look | Necklace - Dorothy Perkins (similar) | Bracelet - Miss Selfridge |
Earrings - Miss Selfridge (similar)

A couple years ago I would be absolutely terrified to wear an outfit like this; crop tops and bright coloured jeans were a no go for me! But over the past few months I've become a lot more confident in the clothes I wear and become comfortable with wearing brighter pieces - especially for the Summer! As soon as I spotted this crop top in Forever 21 I knew I had to have it and at just £6.50 you can't really go wrong! I knew instantly that these jeans would go perfectly with this top as they pick out the coral flowers in the print. If you are worried about showing off your belly, then this top goes really well with high waisted shorts (I also wear this top with the denim shorts in the photos above), jeans or skirts. I can't wait to go back to Forever 21 and pick up some more of these tops in different prints, I think they're so pretty for the Summer!

Thank you for reading today's fashion post, I really hope you enjoyed it! I want to keep the content on my blog quite varied so if you enjoy my fashion posts and would like to see me show other fashion trends with high street pieces then do let me know in the comments below!

Spring & Summer Fashion Haul

Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a lovely week! Today I thought I would share with you some fashion pieces I've picked up recently. Every month I seem to go through stages of where I either want to buy lots of beauty products or clothes, and this month it's definitely been clothes and accessories! Now that spring and summer are finally on their way (despite the fact it's currently raining as I type this post) I wanted to update my wardrobe and add some more fun clothes to it! I'm absolutely loving Miss Selfridge at the moment, their prints and style of clothes are so pretty. There's also a selection of things from Topshop and Primark, so I hope you enjoy the haul!

For today's haul, I've tried a different set up in terms of how I've photographed the clothes. I think it's much better for you guys to see how everything hangs instead of me laying them out on the bed and only doing close up shots! However I do think my wooden door is a bit boring, so do let me know in the comments below if you prefer this style of photography or if I should go back to my old style!

Miss Selfridge Black Floral Playsuit | £39.00 | LINK

Miss Selfridge is always my go-to shop for playsuits. They always fit perfectly and there's so many colours and prints to choose from! I picked out this gorgeous pink, blue and yellow floral print one with a cut out detail on the back. I'm planning to wear this on a night out for my boyfriend's birthday and it looks gorgeous paired with a trusty pair of black wedges. I also think it will look really cute dressed down with a denim jacket and some sandals in the summer!

Primark Crochet Detail Playsuit | £7.00

Primark always have a lovely selection of summer time playsuits and dresses. I spotted this little playsuit and thought it was perfect to throw on for a lazy summer's day. I love the crochet detailing on the front and the pattern is so pretty! Again, paired with a denim jacket I think this is such a lovely piece for the spring/ summer time.

Topshop Tile Print Leigh Jeans | £40.00 | LINK

These jeans seem to be a blogger favourite at the moment and I'm completely in love with them. They have a really cute light blue and white tile print that's perfect for the spring time. As I usually go for simple denim jeans, I thought it was time to add a bit more pattern and colour into my wardrobe. I was so surprised at how easy these jeans are to wear and paired with a simple cami they look amazing on a sunny day! Definitely a fashion favourite for the spring time.

Miss Selfridge Knitted Crop Jumper | £29.00 reduced to £15.00 | LINK

I've never really been a huge crop top fan, but the monochrome print on this top really caught my eye amongst the Miss Selfridge sale rail. As I'm trying to expand my wardrobe, I really want to add some pieces that I would love to wear but at the same time are a little bit out of my comfort zone. I think this will great on a night out paired with some disco pants or during the day with a high waisted skater skirt! I can't wait to give this top a go when it warms up a little.

New Look Daisy Strap Swing Cami in Pink & White | £7.99 each | LINK

Now over the next 4 pictures,  my love of cami tops may become very apparent. Camis are great pieces to have in your wardrobe as they can literally be worn with everything! I spotted these really sweet daisy strap camis in New Look and because I love the little floral details so much, I decided to buy them in both colours! I think these will be the perfect tops to keep you cool in summer as they're so light and are a swing/ loose fitting style.

Miss Selfridge Lace Floral Cami | £20.00 | LINK

Sorry if this picture seems a little blurry, for some reason my camera hates taking pictures of black clothes! This print may look very familiar to you, it's pretty much identical to the first playsuit in this haul! When I saw this gorgeous print in cami form I just had to have it. Again this is a great piece that can be paired with anything and the little lace detailing on the chest adds a bit more something to this top instead of it being a plain floral cami.

Oasis Plain Dip Cami | £22.00 | LINK

On to the final cami (I promise!) and this one is a gorgeous loose fitting dipped cami from Oasis. What I love about these camis is that despite them being made from a sheer thin material, it has 2 layers which means you can't see your underwear through it! This cami looks amazing paired with my new Topshop jeans and has become one of my favourite outfits to wear. I also picked this cami up in the black as I thought these 2 colours would be really versatile in my collection.

Topshop Frill Shell Top | £20.00 | LINK

The final top I picked up was this really sweet shell top from Topshop. I loved the little detailed around the neckline, the frills around the sleeves and the cute crochet detailing at the bottom. This is a really summery top and I think it will look lovely paired with some bright coloured shorts! This top is rather sheer which kind of annoys me but I guess this won't be too much of an issue in the warmer months.

Primark Denim Crochet Detail Skirt | £10.00

How cute is this skirt?! I don't think I've worn a denim skirt since I was about 10 but I absolutely fell in love with the little cut out crochet detail along the bottom. This skirt is quite thin and short so will be much more suited to really sunny days where I can throw on one of my camis and a pair of flip flops! A great casual piece to have in your wardrobe and I definitely recommend you trying it on if you spot it!

Primark Black Skater Skirt | £8.00 reduced to £1.00

Despite already owning numerous black skater skirts, I couldn't just leave this £1 bargain sitting on the rail! These skirts come in so handy when creating a simple outfit so it's always nice to have a few in your collection. I really like the fact this one has belt loops so you can always pair a fun bright belt with it to add a pop of colour to your outfit in the summer time.

H&M Pearl Statement Necklace | £9.99

On to jewellery now and over the past few weeks I've picked up some really lovely pieces. I never knew how beautiful the necklaces were in H&M and teamed with a 25% off voucher I picked up a few to add to my collection. This gorgeous pearl necklace is so pretty and add lots of glam to a simple outfit. I'm really impressed with the quality of the H&M necklaces too, whenever I buy a necklace from somewhere the little diamantes always fall out so I'm pleased to say that this gorgeous necklace is still going strong!

Accessorize Daisy Stud Earrings | £3.00

I spotted these really sweet daisy earrings in Accessorize and thought they would be perfect for any occasion. I much prefer wearing stud earrings and I thought these were too pretty to pass up! I love the diamante detailing in the middle as it adds a touch of sparkle to these simple earrings.

Accessorize Daisy Chain Collar Necklace | £10.00 | LINK

This super cute daisy chain necklace has been my favourite jewellery piece to wear recently! It looks so lovely paired with a simple cami or dress and definitely adds a touch of spring to an outfit. It is quite short hence it being a collar necklace, but on the longest length I find it falls perfectly and fits with anything!

H&M Rose Gold Spike Necklace | £6.99

There's something almost mesmerising about rose gold, it's definitely one of my favourite metals to wear! I spotted this gorgeous spike and diamante necklace in H&M and snapped it up straight away. I love how sparkly yet simple it is and as it's quite a small statement necklace, it can be worn with pretty much everything. This is definitely one of my favourite necklaces in my collection.

Oasis Heart Cut Out Earrings | £4.00 reduced to £2.00

Finally, fitting in with the rose gold theme, I picked up these cute heart cut out earrings in the Oasis sale. They're really simple but as I can't resist anything rose gold, I had to have them. Again these are a perfect pair of earrings that you can wear with any outfit!

So this is everything I've picked up recently! I really hope you enjoyed today's haul and have hopefully found some new pieces to add to your wardrobe. Do let me know your thoughts and opinions on the pieces I've bought. Hopefully it will start warming up for good now that it's May and I can wear all of these gorgeous new pieces!

My Top High Street Products

Hello lovelies! Today I thought I would share with you all some high street products that I've been really enjoying recently! I absolutely love using cheaper products from high street brands as I think they can do just a good of a job as the higher end brands. As a student, I don't have the money to buy endless amounts of expensive makeup, so I love finding some gems in my local Boots or Superdrug that I know work really well and that I can keep repurchasing without damaging my bank account! If you would like to see a selection of those gems that I love using on a day to day basis, then do keep on reading!

Sleek Face Form Palette in Light | LINK
I think Sleek is an amazing brand to buy face products from. The pigmentation of their blushers is incredible and is definitely comparable (and even better in some cases!) than ones from high end brands. As I have quite pale skin, I barely have to touch my brush into the pan to pick up plenty of colour for my makeup! The Face For Palette from Sleek is a brilliant all in one contouring kit that comes with a beautiful blush, bronzer and highlighter. This is the kind of product you can throw in your travel bag and know you have everything to create the perfect contoured cheek!

Real Techniques Brushes | LINK
These brushes are loved by nearly every blogger so it's only right that they deserve a place in my top high street products post! These brushes are great quality and apply makeup like a dream; they're pretty much the only brushes I use to do my makeup everyday! My top 3 from my collection are: the buffing brush, blush brush and deluxe crease eye shadow brush; with just these brushes I could easily create a whole makeup look! If you're looking to add some new brushes to your collection, definitely try out Real Techniques. You can even find them in places like TK Maxx and Fragrance Direct now which means you can get them at an even better price!

Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in 100 Ivory | LINK | Review
I've mentioned this foundation a few times on my blog recently, but I really have fallen in love with it! I've never seen the point to buying really expensive foundations when brands like Rimmel have it covered - pardon the pun! The Match Perfection foundation offers a light/ medium coverage that's buildable and has a beautiful dewy finish that I find perfect for my skin. I use this foundation every time I do my makeup and it works really well for either day or night time looks.

Soap & Glory Archery in Brownie Points | LINK
I absolutely adore this little brow product and I really don't know how I used to fill my brows in before I picked it up! The tinting side to Archery creates such a natural yet highly defined look that can be tailored to anyone's brow needs. The staying power of Archery is also amazing and I never find I have to top my brows up throughout the day! It is a little bit on the pricy side at £10 per pen, but this will definitely be one of those products I'll be forever repurchasing!

Seventeen Eyeshadow Trio in Barely There | LINK | Review
I personally think that Seventeen is one of those brands that's kind of dismissed by a lot of people, yet they do create some wonderful makeup items. The eyeshadow trio in Barely There is one of those products that gives you a complete eye look that takes very little effort at all. If I'm just popping out to the shops and want to go for a minimal makeup look, I always turn to this little trio to create a very subtle eye look. The shadows are very soft and easy to work with plus all 3 of the shades work perfectly together, this makes it perfect for travelling with! This is a great everyday product to keep in your makeup bag.

Topshop Lips Lipsticks | LINK | Review
The Topshop lipsticks have to be one of my favourite lipsticks on the market. They have an amazing formula, a wide selection of shades and aren't very expensive! I've picked out my favourite 3 which are: Crystal, Ditsy and Infrared, all of which are perfect for this time of year. These lipsticks are always my go to shades and I love wearing Ditsy for an evening makeup look. Crystal looks amazing for a wash of pink sparkle during the day and for me, Infrared can work as both a day and evening lip colour!

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water | LINK
Ever since trying L'Oreal's micellar water for the first time, I was hooked. It removes my makeup so well that I could never go back to using face wipes! After recently running out of my L'Oreal cleanser, I decided to try out the Garnier version as it seemed to have the exact same ingredients but comes in a much larger bottle. Where I buy a lot of my skin care products, I can pick both micellar waters for just £2.99 each (usually £4.99 in Boots) so it was sort of a no-brainer to try the Garnier one out! This removes your makeup instantly and works really well as a gentle toner. These cleansers are definitely the way forward for removing your makeup as they're so gentle yet effective keeping your skin clean and toned!

VO5 Plump It Up Dry Shampoo | LINK
When it comes to dry shampoo I always thought there was no better than Batiste, but then I tried this one from VO5. Don't get me wrong, Batiste dry shampoos are amazing and I do still use it from time to time, but I love the results I get from the VO5 Plump It Up Dry Shampoo. As I have quite fine hair that lacks volume at the roots, I always have to use from form of volumising product. Not only does the Plump It Up Dry Shampoo gives my hair some much needed volume, it also leaves it feeling and smelling amazing, plus it leaves literally no white residue behind on my hair! I also love the texturising spray from VO5 and these are the 2 main products I use to achieve volume in my hair on a daily basis!

So these are a selection of my favourite products from the high street that I use on a daily basis. I would love to hear what your favourite high street beauty products are as I'm always on the hunt to try out new things!

Outfit Of The Day | Coral Maxi Skirt

Coral Maxi Skirt - Primark | Black Vest Top - Primark | Sandals - New Look (similar style HERE) | Rabbit & Gem Necklace - Miss Selfridge | 

"Love Always" Bracelet - Dorothy Perkins LINK | Bird Tote Bag - Dickins & Jones (blue version HERE)

Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a lovely week. Yesterday was one of the sunniest days we've had this year, so I took full advantage of this and thought I would do an outfit of the day post! I've wanted to add more fashion posts on my blog recently so all this sunny weather was perfect! I also had my hair cut in the morning and for once I actually like how it turned out despite the fact it's a lot shorter! I'm planning to ombre it again before I go on holiday as a lot of the lighter colour at the ends have been chopped off and I really do miss it. It's a pretty boring cut, but what do you guys think?

Anyway, as yesterday was really hot (and I've been totally slacking on fake tan) I went for a maxi skirt and vest top combination. This coral maxi skirt is from Primark and is probably one of the nicest pieces I've bought from there! I love this style of maxi skirt where it's sheer material but has the mini skirt underneath to cover you up. As the elastic at the waist is black, I paired it with a simple black vest top which is again from Primark. For my shoes I wore my favourite pair of sandals from New Look which I found in the sale a couple years ago. I think these sandal are gorgeous and perfect for wearing in the Summer! They literally go with any outfit and add a nice bit of glam to a simple look. My bag I carried was my everyday bag which is from Dickins & Jones and to me, could easily pass as a Cath Kidston bag. The print is so pretty and there's loads of space to carry all my "essentials" around! Finally for my jewellery I wore my long rabbit and gem necklace from Miss Selfridge and my new "Love Always" bracelet from Dorothy Perkins. I love dainty jewellery and thought both of these pieces went well with the outfit.

So this is my outfit of the day, I'm actually really excited and happy that I'm getting back into doing these posts again! I think doing them in the Summer is so much easier as I tend to wear more "exciting" clothes at this time of year. If you would like to see more outfit of the day posts then please let me know!

Collective Clothes Haul

Hello everyone, hope you're all well! Today I have another haul for you, but for once it's actually a clothes haul! I never seem to do clothes hauls as my camera isn't the best at taking photos of them so I usually never bother trying to post one. But recently I've been picking up quite some new clothes for my holiday and I really wanted to share them with you. As you can see, I've bought quite a few dresses which are my favourite pieces of clothing to wear in the Summer. I'm sorry that you can't see the clothes in full, I'm trying out new angles so I can photograph them well and this was the best I could do! I'm planning to start doing lots of Outfits Of The Day posts once the sun comes out, so you'll be able to see them fully then!

Apricot Pansy & Dots Dress | £27 reduced to £15 | LINK

Apricot isn't usually a brand I buy clothes from, but when I was looking through New Look I spotted this dress in the sale. I instantly fell in love with the floral and polka dot print against the navy material. I thought it would be perfect for the Summer as it can either be dressed up with a blazer and heels or dressed down with a denim jacket and flats, so it's a very versatile piece. The only problem with this dress is that it is quite big fitting, so if you want to buy it I would suggest getting a size down from what you normally get.

New Look Cream Chiffon Belted Dress | £19.99 | LINK 

A while ago now I bought a navy blazer from Primark but I didn't really have many pieces it would go with. I picked up this gorgeous cream chiffon dress from New Look and thought they would go together perfectly! This dress fits really well (the belt really brings the dress together) and it finishes half way down my thigh. I can't wait to wear this dress and I think it'll be great for wearing out in the evenings.

New Look Black Sleeveless Skater Dress | £9.99 | LINK

The other day I realised I didn't own a simple black dress so I went on the hunt for one in New Look. After looking at their disappointing selection of black dresses I decided to look in the "basics" section and try out my luck. To my surprise I found this simple black skater dress for just under £10 and the last in my size. It fits like a dream and is perfect for any occasion, I know I'm going to get a lot of wear out of this dress!

Primark Coral Flower Cut Out Dress | £10 |

The new dress selection in Primark is amazing at the moment! I've fallen in love with the simple dresses that have a cut out flower design around the stomach area and I literally want every design they have! The first one I have is in this beautiful coral shade that just screams Summer time! It has quite a high neckline and finishes half way down my thigh. Even though it has a cut out around the stomach, it hardly shows any skin which is great as it will suit anyone.

Primark Black Flower Cut Out Dress | £10 |

The next cut out dress I have is the black floral print one. This dress fits me really well and I love the cute floral design. I've already worn this dress on a night out and it's very comfortable and flattering! I also like how it has almost every colour in the floral print, so this dress will go with pretty much any accessory, pair of shoes or hand bag you have! It's a perfect piece to have in your wardrobe.

Primark Navy Polka Dot Playsuit | £5 |

Next up are some more clothing items I have fallen in love with from Primark. These little playsuits are so cute and cost a mere £5! I first one I have is this navy polka dot one. It has crossed straps at the back which are secured by buttons at the front. The back of the playsuit is quite low so it will have to be paired with a bandeau underneath. A very simple piece that again I will get a lot of wear out of!

Primark Black Print Playsuit | £5 |

The final piece is my last playsuit from Primark and this one is in a black and cream print. It has the same crossed straps and again will have to be worn with a bandeau underneath. I really love the print of this playsuit and think it will look great in the evening with some wedges. Both of these playsuits are quite short but are very comfortable to wear. They have a stretchy wait line and are made of a very soft material. I will definitely be picking up more of these playsuits if I find any more designs I like!

So this is my collective clothes haul! I will definitely be posting more clothes hauls in the future now that I have found a way to take some decent pictures that I don't mind putting on my blog haha. Please do let me know if you'd like to see some Outfit Of The Day posts on my blog and tell me which piece you'd like to see first!
