Best Of...Primark


Granny Gee
Primark at ASOS!

How great is it that ASOS have done the hard work for you and trawled through Primark to find the best pieces! 

Here's a few things I've got my eye on! 

Wallpaper print body con dress, £10

Floral skater dress (a la Holly Willoughby style), £13

Open back floral dress, £13

Star sweatshirt, £8

The only fault I find with ASOS is that they can't seem to find my house! They've driven past it about three times and I've actually had to run behind the van waving...and they still kept driving! I do live in the middle of nowhere, but still! It's annoying!

How to...dress like The Strypes


While writing an exhibition review for uni the other day, I was listening to Spotify. I had the Radio 1 Playlist on and came across the band, The Strypes!

These guys rock, literally! I'm a big fan of The Stones (going to see them in Hyde Park in July! So excited!), and The Strypes have a similar 60's rhythm and blues vibe. This Irish Quartet have signed to Sir Elton John's Rocket Music management company and are even playing at Glasto. 

But if this isn't impressive enough, these boys haven't even finished high school! The youngest is just 15 years old! I'm predicting big things from them! Their first single Blue Collar Jane is super catchy, check it out here.

Really loving their sixties, mod style. I'd describe it as a cross between The Stones and Oasis, with skinny jeans, blazers, crisp collars and dark sunglasses. 

Here's what to wear to one of their gigs: 



Really hope they'll be playing a gig near me soon!

Have you been listening to any great new bands recently?

Mid-Summer Dreaming


With the announcement that The Rolling Stones are playing Glastonbury this year, and my favourite band EVER Franz Ferdinand are at Bestival, all I can dream about are festivals! 

I thought I'd do a little festival post with my top three festivals for this summer and what I'd wear to them!

1. Glastonbury

2. Bestival

3. Rock En Seine 


Which festivals are you dreaming of this summer?

How I'd Style: The Prom Dress


The rustle of skirts, the whispered gossip and the heady smell of Impulse and Lynx deodorants. Oh yes, it's nearly prom season folks. 

I remember being so excited about my prom; the hours shopping with my friends for THE perfect dress that would show everyone I wasn't just the geek in glasses. I was, there was no fooling! ;) And then the accessories, my favourite part!

For my prom I wore a sea green strapless dress with bow under the bust and I think it had some floral detail! I wore some awful sliver peep-toe heels (that I have only just given to charity, five years later!) and I think a silver clutch bag, that I remember being very nice…I wonder where it is! 

After doing some reminiscing, here's my prom dress styling - the 2013 way!

Outfit Inspiration

Some outfit inspiration! With my internship coming up I've been looking for smart outfits (dress to impress don't cha know!).
I'm also getting really excited about this summer, especially with the snow back AGAIN this evening! I'm desperate to go to Bestival this year - Snoop Dogg and Elton John = crazy! So I thought I'd plan my outfit in case I get the chance to go!
