Holiday Blues...

This is more of a flashback now...where does time fly to?! Having some serious holiday blues riht now, I could do with a freezing glass of ice tea, laying on sun bed and just feeling the heat soak into my skin! The complete opposite of England this afternoon, instead its a hot chocolate-lazy day whilst snuggled in my duvet covers at uni, I'm not complaining though, I have finally found some time to blog!I promise more 'in season' posts will start to appear shortly, I just had to share this one! Also, more to come on my time in Brighton so far!

Ohh yes, oh yes, here's another one of my 'cheap and cheerful' holiday outfits, part of which I never thought I'd ever own! A DENIM MIDI SKIRT! I spotted it from the corner of my eye and you know that feeling of knowing when somethings not that great but you just have to have it and you don't know why? Well thats what happened to me! I needed that skirt but I wasn't obsessed with it at the time...that's a whole new story now! Its definitely flattering little number might I add!

There's not much to say about this outfit really (surprise,surprise the chatterbox has no words ;P), it's quite basic and simple with no frills or over the top jewellery,it is quite elegant because of the length of the skirt and the back cut of the top styled with a sleek bun. I'd also wear it with some loose curls/beachy hair during the day to make it more relaxed and not as serious as well as add some sort of edginess, although thats when the bright orange shoes come in! They're a little unexpected and thats what I love about them, they tie everything together in this look. 

Have anything similar? Don't be afraid to share it on the GC facebook page! 

I got this lovely necklace from one of the market stands in Portugal, its quite Egyptiany/Greeky in person and just really different!

Helloooo my lovelies!

Now I know that it's getting colder and summer is officially over but today's post is a little bit of a throwback to my Portuguese holiday where the warmth of the day would stick around into the evening and it was acceptable to wear shorts to dinner. I thought I'd show it to you for 3 reasons:

1) Maybe because you'd like to try it out and tough out the cold.

2) A number of my followers are abroad where it is now turning to summer so this would be slightly more relevant to them. 

And 3) Because it was too cute not to share! ;)

I have been having a bit of "writers' block" for the past few days, which is rather frustrating but after having a good think about it I thought I'd tell you why and how this whole look came to be...

It all started when I became addicted to the new Kim Kardashian game, now,now, let's not judge! It's actually pretty good, I even got my mom hooked...shhh don't tell her I told you! ;P Anywhooo, it started with the hair, Kim has this sleek look(See picture below) so I decided to copy it, unfortunately with the humidity after one minute of stepping out my hair began to frizz so the pictures don't do it much justice aha.

The clothing itself was one of those accidental outfits..you know, after experimenting with different tops(my suitcase was literally crop top galore!!) different shoes you finally come across one that actually works! Who know a yellow belt wouldn't clash with the floral top?! I've had these shorts for a few years and I usually dress them up a bit formally, so to have this relaxed look I was quite pleased with myself! Just be careful when you're eating not to spill!! 

I'm starting ramble now so why don't you take a look for yourself and let me know your thoughts! 

P.S I have one more lovely summer look and after that I cannot wait to start Autumn/Winter14!! 

No accessories 'cos the tops enough! But perhaps a small chain would be just fine :) 

With not too much belly showing, this is definitely dinner appropriate!
