Little Black Dress





Dress : c/o Edressy / Picked One
Shoes : New Look
Jewellery : Spirit Child, eBay, holidays.


I was contacted by the lovely people at Edressy a few months ago asking if I would like to have a dress made to my measurements, of course I jumped at the chance! I went for a little black evening dress and its stunning. I'm not sure I'll get an occasion to wear it though unfortunately but you never know! It's nice to have a pretty dress and I felt like a princess in it. The dress is good quality and fits perfectly although I would prefer it if the neckline wasn't so high. The details on the sleeves and across the top is what drew me to this dress. Check out Edressy here for affordable beautiful dresses!

I have wanted a dip hem dress or skirt for ages but every one I've tried on has looked ridiculous on me. I actually walked past this dress as I didn't know if I liked the print but my mum said I should try it so I did and loved it! Think I'll be wearing this quite a bit in the summer!

Hope you all had a great jubilee weekend!

I've had this top for years and never worn it. No idea why as I love it now and it makes me want to go on holiday. I have discovered that my legs aren't as bad as I thought after years of wearing jeans all summer, I have now tanned them up slightly and have had them on display to the world for the past week. This is new to me and I'm rather enjoying embracing my naked legs haha.

Meet my new favourite necklace I got the other day. I found it on sale in Topshop reduced from £25 to £10. It was bought with a few other things attached to it but it looked a little over the top so as soon as I got it home I took it apart and got a necklace and bracelet out of it so it was quite a bargain really. Expect this to be around my neck all summer!

As you can see I'm also sporting my new Little Teacup head chain. I've had my eye on it for a while and I finally ordered it on Thursday and it arrived on Saturday, how good is that?! They have some lovely jewellery so make sure you check them out.

It's been lovely weather this past week here in England and as you know I'm not a fan of summer too much but I've had a few days off work and enjoyed sitting in the garden, eating fruit and ice cream and sitting outside the pub at night with my man! I hope you're all enjoying the weather too! xoxox

The Royal Wedding Fashion

I'm not the first and I certainly won't be the last to blog about the Royal Wedding!

Most of the attention was on Kate's dress, which of course is stunning. I'm going to blog about some of the best of worst outfits of the day.

Of course I can't do a royal wedding post without mentioning the stunning dress Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen designed for Kate. Lace is my favourite fabric for wedding dresses and will definately feature on mine! I was very happy to see lace on her dress when she first got into the car this morning. It is a beautiful and elegant fabric fit for a Princess (or Dutchess, I'd prefer her to be a Princess myself!!) The dress had beautiful detailing without being over the top, it was elegant, modern but also timeless. The perfect dress for a Princess!








The Best Dressed
So I must say in my opinion, not alot to look at in the form of well dressed at this wedding! Here are my choices for best outfits!

The Bridesmaids & Pageboys.



I thought Kate's sister Pippa looked lovely in her Alice Temperley dress, very elegant and beautiful. The little bridesmaids dresses were perfect and went really well with Kate's dress. The pageboys looked awesome as well!!

Carole Middleton



Kate's mum looked lovely. I think the Middleton's won over the Royals with their outfits by far. They looked so stylish!

The Worst Dressed



Princesses Eugenie, left, and Beatrice, right.
What can I say....dreadful. I'm not sure what Beatrice is wearing on her head but it looks like a lobster. Not a good look. Winners of the worst dressed!!

Tara Palmer Tomkinson



Definately too much blue here. I really don't like it!!

Victoria Beckham



I know she's pregnant but this dress is just horrible. I like her fascinator however and her shoes would be nice if they were a little lower. Hardly fit for a royal wedding!

So there you have it. Not alot of great outfits I'm afraid.

All hail Kate's beautiful McQueen dress.
