NEW PANTS

 

Here are the 4 new pairs of trousers I have recently purchased so decided to do a little post on them!

:)

 

First up - American Apparel disco pants!

In all fairness, I wouldn't recommend them. I had another pair and the zip burst and for saying how much they cost I don't really think they are worth it sorry :/

The material is thick but you can get cheaper versions which are just as thick. My sister has a cheap pair off ebay that were £14.99 and the material is just as thick, they fit the same and they feel less scratchy as the AA ones :/

Also, when I've had them on a while they seem to chafe on the inside of my thighs, I may not have a 'thigh gap' but i wouldn't say my legs are fat and prone to chaffing so I'm not sure what's going on there? What is this sourcery? :s

Does anybody else have this issue? haha

 

 

Secondly - H&M patterend trousers!

These are fabulous! They fit really well, they are high waisted so you can wear them with a nice crop top, they have an inconspicuous side zip, they have this great aztec black and white print and they also come in loads of other colours :D

Oh and did I mention that they only cost £7.99? ;)

 

Third up - Topshop pattered trousers!

How jazzy are these? Very, i know lol you can also but a matching jacket and go out in a jazzy suit, but i thought that may be a little crazy. You'd get weird looks going out in that in Derby / Nottingham as we're a bit behind the times here, if i lived in London, then yes, yes i would go out in the whole outfit haha

 

Finally - Motel pants in Royal Crush

I'm saving the best until last HAHAHH GUESS WHAT?

These are on Motel's website for £48, and i got them, brand new with tags for..... £2.60 off ebay WHAYYYYY SUCESS!! (Can you tell I'm feeling rather smug?)

Okay so I saw them on ebay with hardly any bids then realised it was because they were a size M which is like a UK 12. I thought they'd be too big but nope, they fit perfectly! I can see that they'd stretch bigger if needed but they aren't baggy or anything, they''re tight and look great on!

They are thinner than I thought they be though, but you can't see through them, even in bright sunlight so it is alllll good :)

I need these in the dark grey and green colour too, so if anybody is getting rid of any, please let me know :D

WE ALL MAKE MIXTAPES

 

 

 

 

 

I'm so excited to share this new look!

 

Okay, first up - the hat!

My boyfriend has been going on about Crooks and Castles ever since he saw Drake wearing one of their jumpers in his 'Miss Me' music video so I decided to get him a few bits for his birthday. He has a hat obsession at the minute and he mentioned getting some camo Vans so now he can now have a nice matching hat / top / shoes combo haha

 

I casually borrowed the hat and will be borrowing the top at some point too ;)

 

 

 

 

 

Second up - my AMAZING jumper!

It's from a clothing line called 304Clothing - if you haven't heard of them you should have!

My boyfriend loved my mixtapes jumper, and as everything 304Clothing sells is unisex, I gave it to him as an extra birthday present haha although to be fair, he does look better in it than me but I'm still going to steal it back every now and again. I love the fact I can share clothes with my boyfriend we're so cool lol :D

I got a Mixtapes jumper and some other awesome tops, all the links to where to buy them are at the bottom of the post :)

 

 

 

 

  

Finally I have to share some love for my Be&D gun high tops!

They're pretty cool right? I got them last October but I've only worn them about 3 times due to the weather, it's either been too rainy or cold and I didn't want to ruin their lovely clean, white, box fresh look lol which is weird for me becuase I usually ruin all my shoes within the first few days of having them :/ haha

 

 

 There's more info on these shoes on a previous blogpost I did here if you're interested :)

GOLD & LEOPARD PRINT

 

Today I was pointlessly putting outfits together with my new top and shorts that I bought the other day, in the hope that the weather will change and it will warm up!

The top is from Topshop and was £15, yes £15 which I thought was really expensive for a little crop top haha BUT after trying on a size 12 (the 8 and 10 would not fit over my boobs :/) i fell in love with it and will be wearing it a lot over the summer.
The shorts are from Primark and were only £4! Woo! So this made me feel better about buying the top haha I seriously don't like spending too much money on clothes. I could happily spend thousands on a single bag or pair of shoes or even a jacket, but I tent to buy my clothes striclty from highstreet stores - I can't be doing with spending £700 on a pair of trousers or £50 on a vest, AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FO' DAT!

Anyway...
Back to the outfit haha I wasn't too sure which shoes I liked best with it, which ones should I go for? Hmmmm :)

Chiffon crop top: Topshop - £15.00, find here

Leopard beach shorts: Primark - £4.00

BEACH LOOK

 

Today's cheap & cheerful beach look!

 

I have so many clothes / shoes that I buy but never wear!

I was looking through my wardrobe today and came across this chilli top that I got before I went on holiday last year, along with loads of playsuits and other summery things, most still have the labels on!

Next time I go to a beach i'm wearing this.

I though the chilli top was really cute when I first saw it and as it was in a sale at Primark for only £2 YES TWO POUNDS I had to have it! It's quite long so I could wear it over a bikini and I love the colour of the shoes! They're really comfy too, I think i've worn them once before but that's it.

 

I have loadsssss of new things coming soon so hopefully when I finally finish my dissertation (anyone else feel my pain?) I will be able to loads more posts :)

 

Outfit:

Chilie top: Primark - £2.00 !!

Coral flats: Primark - £12.00

Gold chunky chain: Primark - £3.50
