I actually saw this Lipsy one shoulder structured drape dress in the shop and it looked so much better in real life. £69.00 Now £39.00

The LBD!
Who said the little black dress is boring? It is a timeless key wardrobe piece. I love how this dress would complement your curves. It would look ace on an athletic body shape as the higher neck would make you appear bigger on the top and the peplum at the waist would make your hips appear wider to add curves. This could be dressed up for an evening look or dressed smart for work wear. Ted baker £159.00  Now £111.00

Okay so a lot of girls asked me where i got my dress from the one i'm wearing in the image below (In black and red) I even got quite a few people i didn't know message me on Facebook asking me about it. Well here it is in blue and black which i think looks sooo much better on in real life. It was £165.00 and now £65.00 yes i know you can all imagine me turning 10 shades of red in rage but hey i didn't have anyone to tell me and luckily for you, you guys have us to let you know of these budget buys. This dress is by forever unique at Asos they also do it at Very.

I wore the dress for my 20th birthday with silver accessories. I played up my eyes and balanced it out by doing a nude lip. I never do a bold lip and eye at the same time. The drag queen look is not a cool look girls... Oh and my bracelet is by Bangle Box. Take a look at the rest of their collection on Facebook. This one is my FAVE!

Get this flower chiffon maxi dress in the style of Ashley Olsen £50.00 now £20.00

Get these tobacco coloured belted peg trousers. Was £40.00 Now £18.00 also available in Mink.

We also love these Sessun Mamili Paper Bag Waist Trousers. £130.00 Now £90.00

These Firetrap Chino trousers were £65.00 Now £32.00

Palazzo pant. Was 50.00 Now £28.00

Short sleave crochet trim blouse. Was £35.00 Now £18.00. How cute is this???

Okay this item is pretty cool. Its a crochet collar. You add it to a plain white top like this and it adds instant glamour. This is so in my ASOS shopping basket. Was £12.00 now £6.00

tip: Notice i will never buy anything River Island from ASOS despite being such a junkie? Because ASOS sometimes have full priced River Island items that River Island have reduced on their website. Don't ask me why. Although sometimes its worth buying from ASOS because they do free delivery and NUS discount. It's okay Asos you've redeemed yourself. 

I own this Varsity jacket. It was £90.00 and now it is £50.00. Thank the lord i didn't buy this one full price. I was so tempted to though but i resisted and my resistance to temptation sure was rewarded!


Okay girlys i think i have made my point.

The Workaholics Summer Wardrobe

Helllloooooooooo!!! Okay so the other day i was getting ready for work and had a wardrobe crisis. I couldn't decide what to wear. It was like one of life's biggest dilemmas for me. WHAT DO I WEAR??? So i usually save all that drama for the night before so i don't waste time and end up getting late for work.  So all that drama inspired me to do this post. So here goes. Enjoy and let me know what you think

"Hey its okay if you have the tiniest office crush even if you are not single...A girl needs an excuse to dress up from 9 to 5." So here are some fashion trends that mean serious stylish business. 

1. Clutch Control!

Make your evening accessories work overtime with this envelope style clutch bag. Add a pop of colour to your neutral office outfit.
This is for £20 at Asos 

2.  Bright Now!!

2011 is the year of colour. Colour blocking is back and it’s bright - very, very bright - with designers such as Jil Sander, Prada, Christopher Kane and Louis Vuitton all pushing this trend.

Our top tip: If the thought of clashing primary colours and acid brights together is a little daunting, introduce colour blocking into your wardrobe by mixing accessories and one bright item of clothing with some neutral shades. For example, team cream chinos with a red blouse and a colourful belt. Metallic accessories will also look fabulous with these shades.

I would wear this blazer with beige or biscuit colour smart drape shorts or i would brave the brights with another block of colour. 

£34.99 at River Island

3. Play it cool!  


This playsuit is £45 at ASOS
Yes white is high maintenance but nothing screams promotion like this playsuit teamed with an eye popping Bright Blazer.  

4. Be Glambitious 

Ace that meeting with this two- tone quirky dress from Asos at £45.00
The black waist band helps show off your curves and the black & white colours make you look sharp & sophisticated. Team with a bright coloured clutch to make a striking impression and add some heels.  

Now tell me what are YOUR summer work wardrobe staples???

Budget Vs Blowout!!!

Whats the Time? Its Time for a change!

Blowout!!!!

Okay so i thought i would blog about this watch that i just bought online just now to share all my excitement. My previous watch was a DKNY stone/diamond type bracelet watch which i got as a 19th Birthday present. Well a year of swimming, showering and whatever else i might have done to loosen many of the stones which consequently fell out i figured it's time to say my Good-byes. So i went onto ASOS and picked this one out which is very different to my previous watch which was very girly and elegant. This one is a boyfriend style watch. I LOVE this watch as it is bold yet sophisticated. Its for £115!

                               Budget!!!!

This one which i found was so similar in every way from the strap to the chronograph details.They both have the gold- tone indexes and a croc textured leather strap with the pin buckle fastening.


I actually asked my friend before i bought the watch and he thought i had gone completely stark raving mad for buying the more expensive one as this one looked exactly the same to him. 


This watch costs £25 from ASOS and if you have an NUS card you also get 20% off. WIN - WIN for you Budget Babes out there. 


So you and your bank balance can look good!!
