Pre-Birthday Party OOTD

Like all important figures I choose to give myself more than one day to celebrate my birthday... I feel like one day isn't really enough for everyone to give me the attention I desire deserve for being so fabulous. This usually means I have a day where I have some fun with my family and then a day shortly after having fun with my friends. Of course, two days of celebrations means two separate outfits.

For day one I'll be wearing this floral print skater dress from ASOS. I am completely and utterly in       L O V E with it - it's made of such light material and isn't too structured allowing it to follow the shape of my body without making me look like I'm a bit too chubs.

Soz for the bitchface - nothing makes me scowl more than being told to look happy in photos.......

 I'll be teaming it with these nude, patent wedges from Forever21. The platform makes them super easy to walk in but they do rub a little on my ankle which isn't the nicest feeling. After one (or two, or three) glasses of champagne I might be swapping these for something a little closer to the ground but they compliment this dress so well I'll be very reluctant when that time comes.

Overall I absolutely adore this dress. I feel all swishy and girly and magical without looking too boring but with the added bonus of minimal effort! Also, as the dress is relatively loose fitting it's perfy perf for occasions where you might get a little bit of a food baby..we've all been there, I'm just letting you know, k?

Since the dress is so brightly patterned I'll be doing a simple cat-eye and a swipe of matte, red lipstick or a tinted gloss for my make-up.

You can find this dress now on ASOS.com here (click!) and it's on sale!

summer's in the air and baby heaven's in your eyes

I absolutely love this outfit, now I'm a little blonder I feel like I can wear pastel colours without being washed out, finally! This jacket is my absolute new favourite wardrobe item because it's studded and it goes so well with everything I own (...mainly because I own a lot of black!). Unfortunately I bought it in Florida and I can't find it online but there is something similar here (click!).

I was going to take a photo of the back of the t-shirt as it has a completely lace back but I couldn't get a nice one and now it's sold out online, tragic!

Forever21 is easily one of my favourite high street stores to shop in when I'm in the UK and in the US because nothing is extortionately priced nor is to too cheap to look nice.

Anyway, I wore this out for dinner with one of my best friends last week but it could easily be worn over a skater dress with heels or in place of a blazer at a Summer or garden party. I find a nice jacket is a perfect accessory when completed with a cold glass of Pimms!
