HAUL

I had to go into Uni the other day to do a final assessment so when I'd finished I thought I'd treat myself and go shopping!
:D

First us is this gorgeous playsuit from Topshop! I saw it on the website but thought I should probably try it on first as some playsuits look daft on me lol I found this one (a size 8) and a size 16 hiding behind some dresses, these were the last 2 in the shop so I was pretty lucky to have found them! I thought it would be tiny as it's a size 8 and it is quite small. The material is very thick and it's lined so it doesn't really stretch that much, but once I had managed to do the zip up, it was okay. I love the pattern and the colour of it, I think i'll wear it with mint accessories for a nice summery look

Next up is this maxi dress! I originally wanted the shorts and tee combo in this print but it was £62-ish? and sold out so I got this dress, which was only £32, and planned on sewing it up into a playsuit. This is the first maxi dress I've ever bought as I've never really liked them, I'm not that tall so they're usually too long for me haha but this fits perfectly! I've decided to leave it long, I've worn it twice already and recieved loads of compliments which I was quite surprised at! I wore it with these green Primark sandals and my black Chanel bag in the day and added my black biker jacket when it got colder later on. The only bad thing is that I need to find an underskirt to wear with it as static was a BIG problem!

This little vest was again from Topshop and was £26 which I think is rather expensive for what it is, but hey, I thought it was quite jazzy and these do fit really well. It will go great with a pair of jeans for a simple look. This is the kind of top I would wear to May Sum, I  would be able to stuff my face with 100000 tons of Chinese food and my fat belly would be nicely disguised

 These 3 dresses are from H&M and I'm really happy with these! They'll be perfect for summer with a thin belt around them. I especially love the white one, I thought it was so pretty and summery! They should have been £7.99 each which is cheap anyway but when I got to the checkout they were only £4 each! Absolute bargain don't you think?!
:D

Sammi Jackson - Air Max 1's Sunset Pack
 
This is just a simple outfit I wore to work the other day. It's not the most interesting outfit but I had to show off my amazing new trainers!! I ordered them as soon as they came out on JD and they came the next day :D I wanted the Air Max 90's but they only started in a size 7 (they're mens you see,) so I had to get the Air Max 1's as they started in a size 6
 :)
They are soooo comfy and I love the bright sunset colour scheme, I've had them on everyday! I will more than likely be posting more looks with them soon

Here's a look featuring my Topshop Dandy trousers! I wanted to wear them with an orange blazer for a bright summery look but it was quite cold and rainy so I wore them with all black instead so I could wear this warm jacket and my boots.
I was going out for a meal at the local Indian restaurant and later discovered that these trousers weren't the best choice! The waistband is quite tight and doesn't stretch so I couldn't really sit down in them, I had to undo them and this was before I'd even eaten anything OH THE SHAME hahah
:)
 
You can also buy a matching jacket and wear with the trousers as a suit! But if you saw my previous post, you would have seen me moan about it being to jazzy to wear in Derby and that you'd probably get weird looks as it's not the most fashionable place in the world haha I do love it though!

 So then, I've finished my exams WOO HELLO SUMMER OFF!!
I've been meaning to do this post for a while but hadn't really had the time, I felt that any time I did have should've been spent revising haha
I am in love with my cathedral dress, it's not Black Milk, it's from Romwe but it's still really bright, the print is clear and it's quite thick. I got a size M thinking the sizes would be tiny but they weren't so it's a little baggy
:)
I used to have a gorgeous little black jacket from H&M but it got stolen :( I didn't think I'd find another that I liked as much but thankfully I found this one and I love it! It's just the right length for me and I love the runched up sleeves, I would've only just rolled them up anyway haha
The rose crown and wedges are a result of my handywork and I'm not sure if you can tell but i'm wearing false nails for the first time in my life! I filed them right down as I couldn't do anything with them, how do people cope with long nails? :S
