On Wednesdays We Wear Pink

Hey Guys,
This is just a quick post I put together in honor of the Mean Girls 10th anniversary today! I thought it might be cute to select all my favourite pieces from the lovely pink things that are available on the highstreet at the moment.. as we all know I have a weakness for pink...and it is a Wednesday...

Sparkly,tacky & matching.. I'm pretty sure this little pink set has already sold out on the Topshop website! But perhaps we can recreate it with other matching pink items in our wardobe?

A beautiful blush pink smock from the lovely people at The White Pepper.. if you don't know this website & you are a pastel lover like me you are missing out big time...I mean I can't afford to buy any of the stuff but it's nice to dream...

River Island makes the pink dress casual by reinventing it in acid wash jersey.. we likey. I am also a fan of these 90's style thin halter straps that are appearing at the moment, but I am unsure how I would tackle them without the use of a better strapless bra tbh..yep..I talked about bras...ON THE INTERNET.

A delicous silky shirt dress from topshop.. I like the idea of wearing this with silver heels and a silver clutch and partying  till the wee hours..or just wearing it to a picnic, which is much more likely in my life ;)

Last of all.. the shoes! The first pair are some espadrilles from Topshop - i really like these, i think they would look supercute (now one word) with plain jeans and a tee in the summertime as a nice POPof colour. Secondly.. the jellies are back, this time is pastel pink..'ooooooh' my 5 year old self stares at them in wonder & amazement! Last of all this adorable pair of kitten heels from New Look which I think would top off my vintage floral co-ord perfectly..hmm...

Well, that's all for now folks! Sorry if you don't like pink!!! 


LOVEEEEEEEEE

Pastels & Pho

Hey guysssssssss,

Today's post is an OOTD from a day off I had the other day and spent with my bf. I decided to rock out the pastel as the sun had finally decided to show it's face for a bit! 


I have had this little pale yellow knitted top from Topshop for a while now but haven't really worn it too many times as I couldn't quite find the right way to wear it, its such a nice piece as it reminds me of something a 1950's teenager would have worn.. so cute.  


On this particular day off Will & I went for Vietnamese down the road, Noodle soup (Pho) is my favourite kind of food EVER, so I very much enjoyed this! :) AAaanyway, back to the OOTD haha...



I decided I still needed to layer (it may be sunny but it's still very chilly!) so  I ended up putting my cropped jumper on top of my knitted Tee so that the crochet bottom detail would still show through, I then paired this with my pastel check skirt from River Island and topped it all off with a hair bow. 

Yellow Knit & Crochet Tee - Topshop
Pastel Blue Cropped Jumper - Topshop
Pastel Blue Check Mini Skirt - River Island
Thick Tights - Primark
Heeled Chelsea Boots - Primark
Hair Bow - Beyond Retro


Makeup wise I did my normal, vintage inspired look - Matte red lips (Russian Red - MAC), winged liner (l'oreal Superliner), and pink blush (Sleek - Rose Gold)


My bag is a beautiful pastel pink satchel that I picked up from Topshop quite a while ago, I have been waiting for the spring time so that I could use it more! I love the colour so much and it is much easier to carry around then my big H&M shoulder bag

  

 That's all for now folks, hope you like my outfit :) Are you looking forward to Spring as much as I am? I can't wait for it to get warmer, then I can start putting more colour back into my OOTDS at last!
