Believe it or not my outfit has nothing to do with you

With so many 'celebrities' acting as our style muses at the minute I think it's difficult for a girl to know how she should dress. But when you think about it more why are there actually any rules? Don't get me wrong I understand that girls can be bitchy and can pick apart another girls outfit within 30 seconds of catching a glimpse. But when you think about it some of us (myself) have loved clothes since we were young enough to steal our mums heels and play dress up by making a dress out of our duvet covers and if you're like me your love for fashion hasn't faltered since. I have spent 3 years studying Fashion and 9 years working various different retail jobs just as an excuse to be around clothes before I finally crack my dream job.  The Fashion Industry is one of the hardest to crack. We all know it.  It's long hours, hard work and we get told that we WILL NOT reach our dream job until we are well past 30. We do however get told to embr...

Urban Outfitters must haves!

Now normally as much as I love Urban Outfitters I never really buy anything from there. Probably because I don't actually live near one and feel that I am far from cool enough to wear anything from there. BUT this season I could have cried with happiness when I walked into UO in Belfast. With an obsession for pinafores and anything with cute collars I was in heaven! UO have really stepped up their game this season stocking the shelves with combinations of 60's inspired dresses and pinafores and peter pan collared tops. Alongside being able to purchase biker leather jackets to team with the girly dresses it is the perfect combination. On top of all of that the fact that the dresses are all swing or shift they are the most flattering fit! Perfect. Teamed with chelsea boots or brogues and a killer satchel this season is set to be a cute one with Urban Outfitters! xoxo

Denim obsession

Denim has taken over the fashion world at the moment. With the huge trend of dungarees that have hit the high street this summer it's hard not to be the owner of at least one denim piece. BUT if you were to take a step into my over flowing wardrobe you will see a flurry of denim dresses. Pinafores, shift dresses, swing dresses, with collars and without, printed and plain. I am well and truly OBSESSED with them. It's one of those things where you find "The dress" the one that you wish you could wear everyday if it wasn't gross and against all girls style rules. So when I went into Topshop in Cardiff at the weekend I tried to drive myself away from the new seasons denim...I got an outfit (which did actually include a denim skirt) but of course 12 hours later it was back in the shop and was swapped with a collared denim dress. This one was polka dot...one of the only styles I don't have. So I thought I would take a look at some of the most stylish celebs rock...
