Collar & Cuffs




Dress - Missguided* / Jacket - Primark / Flatforms - ASOS
Badges - Stolen Thunder, Helpless Romantic / Rings - Regal Rose, Kukee, ASOS

This is what I wore out last night for a few cocktails in Revs. I can't remember the last time I wore a bodycon dress or skirt as I'm a bit on the lumpy side these days but for some reason I was drawn to this one from Missguided. I just adore the leather collar & cuffs! It's knitted so it was surprisingly comfy & warm. I can never resist going for a few drinks when there's a bit of sun even if it's actually freezing outside! I paired it with my trusty old leather jacket from Primark and my ASOS flatforms.

As you can see I also dyed my hair pink! I've been itching to dye it a pastel colour again for ages. I was gonna go for mint green this time but when I got my roots done last weekend I just asked them to mix a bit more pink into my toner. It's faded a lot already so I think I'll have to get some Directions Carnation Pink to top it up soon. I'm really happy with it though & I think it looks even better this time as my hair is a bit longer now. Maybe I'll do green next time eh?

  13. Lumpy?! Oh my God, girl, I was going to ask if you lost weight because you're looking so slim! I'd kill for those legs! That dress looks gorgeous on you and those leather sleeves and cuffs add such a nice touch. They kind of 'rough up' the bodycon dress, which is a really feminine style of clothing.

    I'm so glad to see your pink hair again! I wish I could do cool things to my hair, but I don't even want to think about bleaching my dark, thick and dry hair! Mint would be so amazing, definitely do it! And then bring back the lavender because I loved that colour on you too. I'm just going to live out my dream of pastel coloured hair through you, okay? :p

  15. You look gorgeous! Bodycon stuff looks amazing on you.

    I really, really want to dye my hair platinum blonde. It's dark brown and wavy. Any tips at all? I'm guessing it'll be expensive! xx

    1. thank you! definitely go to the hairdressers because all kinds of stuff can go wrong doing it at home. i think i paid about £150 for the initial colour, then about £70 for my roots every few months. my natural hair is ridiculously dark but they still manage to bleach it this light. just use lots of hair treatments, don't wash your hair very often & buy a good purple shampoo to keep it bright xx

  16. Brilliant, thank you! It's really good to get an honest idea of the price as salons are so vague! I absolutely adore your blog by the way, especially your skin care reviews :) xx
