Pretty In Pink





Top - Topshop / Skirt - Fashion Union* / Shoes - Garage Shoes
Bag - Whistles / Necklace - Mikey* / Watch - Shore Projects*

Being somewhat challenged in the neck department I used to always avoid buying high-neck tops. I'm really struggling to find clothes that I like at the minute because everything seems to have a turtleneck. Even worse, most of these high-neck tops are cropped as well. Whilst I do like 90s fashion some of it is just so ugly & unflattering. These ribbed funnel neck tops from Topshop are my current fave as they're still on trend but they aren't cropped & the neckline is just right for me. I have them in a few colours but I wear the black one the most. I'm kinda tired of wearing dull Wintery colours so today I paired it with lots of pink things. I adore this bubblegum pink skirt from Fashion Union. It's a bit of a nightmare to iron & creases up again as soon as I sit down but it's such a pretty colour! I really like how the high shine material looks too. Not totally sure if A-line skirts suit my figure but I'm stuck in a bit of a fashion rut & fancied trying something new.

I'm also loving this gorgeous pink necklace from Mikey at House Of Fraser. Although House Of Fraser are generally considered to be a high-end department store they also sell a wide range of more affordable brands. They have so many beautiful pieces of jewellery available. I chose this one because I really liked the combo of pink & clear gems with a gold rope chain. It's so lovely & goes with loads of outfits. I've gone a bit shoe crazy lately & seem to have bought rather a lot of new ones! I'm so glad that chunky heels are everywhere right now because they're so comfy to wear but still give me some much needed height. I've always wanted a pair of tassel loafers but I'd never been able to find any that I liked until now. These ones are from Garage Shoes & they are perfection!

Black Dahlia




Playsuit - Fashion Union* / Shoes - All Saints / Necklace - eBay

I'm a bit late with this but here is what I wore on Valentine's Day. I absolutely love this floral playsuit from Fashion Union. I was lusting after a similar one from Topshop for ages but this one is just as lovely & a lot cheaper too. Playsuits are always a great choice because I think they're really flattering on my figure & they're comfortable enough for some effortless chic. This one has a really cool cutout detail on the chest for flashing a sly bit of cleavage haha. I just paired it with this heart selector necklace & my trusty snakeskin brogues from All Saints. They're a bit battered now but I still love them.

I ended up having a a pretty amazing Valentine's Day. I wasn't expecting anything other than a card so it was so nice to be treated to a couple of presents, a box of choccies & a home cooked meal. I do the cooking all day every day so it was lovely to have a night off for once. I felt really special & very lucky to have such a brilliant boyfriend. Guess who had to do the washing up though!
