Amsterdam OOTD // Weekend Edition

Hello lovelies,

Since being back at university I haven't been blogging. Not because I don't want too but I've actually become head of fashion & beauty for the university magazine, meaning that I've been up to my eyeballs in writing and editing articles... Alongside a mountain of work! But, I've started a module all about blogging and I remembered just how much I missed my blog so what better way to restart than to post my first outfit of the day (OOTD) post from my trip to Amsterdam. 

I spent the weekend in Amsterdam for my boyfriends birthday (giving him the lovely job of taking millions of photos of me) and thought I'd take snaps of what I was wearing as lately I've been really into wearing and trying new looks. I'll do my best to link the original items but alternatives might be in place as I do a lot of my shopping in vintage shops here in Leicester. 

Enjoy!

Day 1- From airport to Amsterdam

Finding something comfortable but stylish for your first day can be a bit of a mission but culottes are perfect! They can be dressed up but also dressed down so I decided to pair them with some Stan Smiths and an oversized washed out denim jacket.

Day 2 - Red accents

Red has swiftly become my all time favourite colour and this beanie I found in Bershka Amsterdam adds a pop of colour to a relatively monochrome outfit. I've also been loving my denim skirt and find pairing it with an oversized hoodie can keep you warm as well as comfy. Not sure you've noticed yet but comfort for me is key!

 Day 3 - Oversized everything

T-shirt dresses and band tee's have been in all summer and have been coming into the colder months as a layering option. I found pairing this dress with another oversized item of clothing worked really well. The jacket is an old school vintage Nike waterproof that adds some colour to the outfit. Every person in the world seems to own a pair of Vans and I don't blame them. These shoes are go with every single outfit ever and are super comfortable!

I used the same bag throughout the trip but unfortunately I brought it so long ago and abroad that I have no idea where you could find it from! If any of you know any designs similar please comment below I'd love to be able to find an alternative!

Simply Suede // Holiday OOTD

So I should probably start this post off by saying sorry for not posting weekly over the past month but I was away on holiday and wanted to take a break to revamp my blog and work on better content so keep an eye out for some changes!

Whilst away I decided to take some outfit of the day photographs as I love summer clothing! I'll be posting each one as separate posts and everything will be linked below (If I can find it!) 

This first OOTD was by far my favourite. I am completely in love with suede clothing at the moment. I'm quite a fan of textured clothing so these are right up my street. These cute shorts were a complete bargain from Primark for only £8. 

I paired these with a plain black racer crop top from Miss Selfridge which I actually brought way over a year ago now and still get so much wear out of it. Again this was such a steal! 

My sandals are again from Primark. These are from last years range so I'm not sure they are still available but Primark always have tons of sandals over the summer time so I'm sure you can find some similar. They have a mesh strap along the top then go round the back of my foot. They are stupidly comfortable and I again have gotten so much wear out of them. 

Let me know in the comments if you would like more regular OOTD posts and what things you have been wearing over the summer!

Love B

Valentines // Polyvore Inspo

Recently I have discovering Polyvore and I am hooked like a fish!!! I spend countless hours creating my own outfit inspirations and browsing at what other people are creating. It's just so visually appealing. *inserts heart eye emoji*

As valentines is just around the corner I thought I'd piece together a date night outfit for the romantic occasion. A girl loves nothing more than dressing up and choosing something to wear it just the beginning of the fun. As it is for valentines it was only right to keep it red and black. It's classy. 

I've opted for a feather trimmed mini skirt with a burgundy turtle neck from Topshop. Paired with some lace up heels from Missguided and a beautiful (and totally out of my budget) clutch from YSL. The gold and burgundy compliment the earrings I have chosen which are also from Topshop. I'm never a huge fan of wearing earrings but on a date I would feel naked without them! I then picked an all black midi dial watch from Olivia Burton. Their watches are so classic and I always wear mine! Last but not least a matte, deep red lipstick from MAC. Perfect.

Any outfit inspo's from you lovelies?

Stripes and sun // OOTD

Hello lovelies! The weather in the UK is scorching hot at the moment which calls for some summer time outfits of the day! I'm so nosy and love seeing what other people are wearing, so if any of you guys are the same I hope you enjoy all of these posts. 

Top: New Look

Bag: Primark

Sunglasses: Topshop

Trousers: Missguided

Sandals: Primark

If any of you guys are from the UK you will understand the pain of constant cold days! So when the sun came out I decided to make the most of things and wack out some real summer vibes. 

Primark this year has not failed to wow me with it's super cheap yet super stylish summer clothing. The sandals I am wearing I got for a fiver!!! Yes, that's right only £5.00! I couldn't leave them really, it'd be rude. They don't rub and actually feel such strong, good quality. 

I love the off the shoulder styled tops at the moment and this is actually one I brought in last years end of summer sale! I'm so glad they've made a come back this year. I can't wait to get my hands on some more. *Heart eye emoji*

I'm not typically a 'baggy trousers' type of girl but these cotton cuffed trousers I ordered from Missguided fit like a dream. They are so lightweight and comfortable!

Any summer styles I should be on the look out for?
