Fabulous Festival Fashion.



Festival season is fast approaching and I don't know about you but I am excited..
I have doing some research for all you festival goers out there and seeing where I can pick up the best trends and I have stumbled upon some absolute beauties. 



First of all we have this wonderful vest from a quirky vintage boutique on ASOS Marketplace called Vintage Denver... feast your eyes on this:


Beautiful Yellowstone Park vest top from 
Vintage Denver


Next up we have a yellow and blue super cool Kimono, perfect for festivals:


Kimono from ASOS 


I tell you what I have fallen in love with from ASOS... this amazing clutch bag! 
Who doesn't love a bit of holographic style? 


Mystical Clutch - ASOS


I must admit, at festivals... a bit of clashing prints can't go a miss, they're the perfect festival addition. However I am prone to a two item match up, so I had to pick these matching shoes to go with the clutch, I just couldn't help myself: 


Sandles - TOPSHOP


This next item truly won over my heart,  Hawaiian Tropicana Headband
Oh what a beauty:


Hawaiian Headband - Vintage Denver


When it came to what to wear with these there was no contest. Levi High Wasted shorts were a must. I just feel they bring the whole outfit together, they make any outfit look effortless cool:



Levi Shorts - LEVI's


Here are a few extra accessories that caught my eye that you could switch & change with:













This is a personal favorite:


So for those of you going to a outdoor gig or festival this year, these are the items to look out for. 
Loving the vintage classics from Vintage Denver, truly unique items... loving the gorgeous footwear choices from ASOS and the beautiful high wasters from Levi's.

What an exciting summer ahead. I have a lot of outdoor activities and festivals planned and cannot wait to get my outfits sorted! I will be posting some outfit posts a long the way to keep you all in the loop :)

Oh & chances are, it'll rain. We do live in england after all. 
Fear no more, K-Way waterproofs available here.

Todays Outfit Choice.

HAPPY SUNDAY

Hello my fellow fashionistas & a happy Sunday to you.
I woke up this morning and caught a glimpse of the sun & thought...
this is the perfect day to wear my new dress!
Which is how the outfit idea started, the accessories picked themselves with this dress which I think is an absolute beauty, one of my current favorites.


This is 'the' dress, a beautiful rose print with wonderful colours throughout from Warehouse:


I took a close up snap so that you could see it a little clearer. 
Here is the print:


Time to accessorise... Here are my bracelets. 
The blue and green bracelet was handmade by one of my fabulous friends,
the creative soul that she is.


My earrings are from Miss Selfridge, I am in love with the colour:


These fabulous sun glasses are Firetrap:


My ring is from TOPSHOP... again, I love the colour:


My wonderful Back Pack is from the gem that is, T K MAXX:


Last but definitely not least, my bargain watch... again from T K MAXX at the low low price of £15.99! Watch:


Have a Fashionable Sunday Folks.

A Date with Spring

And so we meet again..
Spring

One of my favorite times of the year. 
The sun shines more, light nights & most of all...
 the fashion is quite simply, perfection.

I have been doing some research. Some browsing, buying & testing to find you all the perfect spring accessories and I think i've done it. The PERFECT guide to Spring.

Let's start with every girls best friend in spring/summer, Sunglasses. No girl likes the squinting eyes look, especially if you're snap happy, let's be honest. I tried quite a few and these were without a doubt my favorite ones.

PRADA

Next on my list was the perfect handbag and this was a tough one, the beautiful ranges within each brand was hard enough, I fell in love with a Chanel bag a long with a Prada one, but I had to narrow it down and the winner was... Michael Kors. What a beauty.

MICHAEL KORS


Next stop was my number one obsession, Nail Varnish. My nail varnish collection is... you could say, rather large and that would be a understatement. I am forever adding to it, but what's a girl to do. Therefore choosing this was rather hard, as I was thinking where do I begin. However I think it has to be Dior, Wonderland 575. New out last week and it has won my heart already. 

DIOR


Next on the list is of course, a little shimmer. Every girl needs some gloss in their life and for me, this was not a hard decision. It has to be Chanel. I love their glosses, this one in particular. 
Daydream 174, you can't get much better.

CHANEL



Last but definitely not least. A scent for my Date with Spring. New to everyones shelves & not even out in some stores yet, the very exclusive, BonBon.
Luxurious, beautiful, good enough to eat.
The perfect rounded fragrance to this wonderful accessories must have guide.

VIKTOR & ROLF

A Brief Encounter with the Spring/Summer Collections


Some of the top trends at Fashion Week Spring/Summer 14' are unbelievable.
Truly exciting for any fashionista out there. The decision is, which key piece do you buy for this seasons looks... can you decide?

Michael Kors 


I am in love with Burberry this season, these pieces in particular.

Burberry



As always, Chanel shone bright. Minimalism is not there middle name and never will be. If you want to be stand out or make a statement this season Chanel is the brand for you.
Beautiful, Elegant & Unique.

Chanel



All this fashion talk is making me want to go on a shopping spree.
Oxford Street here I come.

Vintage at it's Best.

Up & coming in the fashion world.
The beautiful boutique, Vintage Denver.


Vintage Denver is an online clothing Boutique that sell on ASOS Marketplace. 
Renowned for their unique, beautiful and one of a kind items, they are a MUST SEE.
Each of the items on Vintage Denver are specifically hand picked creating a sense of individuality that many others can't reach. If you are a lover of unique, quirky, fabulous items, this is the place to go. They stock Mens & Ladies items ranging from Jackets to shorts to Scarves. 
Anything you can imagine, they have.

Here I shall display some of their fantastic items, be sure to have a scroll:


One of the best things about Vintage Denver is the attention to detail, the time and effort put into each photo shoot, the thought put into each hand picked item along with the amazing customer service received through out. Many online boutiques lack that extra mile customer service, not Vintage Denver, with them you receive great service and communication throughout. Excelling the standards that you can even hope for with an online business.
