3 WAYS TO WEAR: CULOTTES:





Culottes have become a surprise summer staple of mine. I picked up this pair from ASOS and have styled them three different ways. Let me know what you think to the looks below and if you'd like to see more styling videos on my channel :)

DO YOU LIKE YOURS #TOTESBIG OR #TOTESSMALL?



I had such a lovely time at the Cath Kidston #totesbig and #totessmall event this evening that I wanted to share some of the pictures with y'all. I attended the launch on behalf of the weekly publication I'm currently assisting at and had the best time catching up with old colleagues and good friends and messing around in the incredible illusion photo booth.

You're bound to have seen the #totesbig and #totessmall campagin either in a magazine/newspaper or posted by your favourite editor/celeb on instagram. I love how creative and accessible the campaign is, enabling nosey rosey's like me to have a sneak peek into the bags of everyone from Daisy Lowe to Carrie Harwood. Everyone's been sharing their daily essentials and divulging whether they're a  #totesbig or #totessmall kinda gal whilst showcasing five brand new super cute designs across two different sized bags.

I'm a notorious over-packer so will always be a #totesbig gal. I always take my trusty Cath Kidston foldaway shopper bag with me on every trip as I can cram everything I could possibly need during a weekend stay in Liverpool into it - I'm the girl who always has an iPhone charger, plasters, hand cream and lip balm to hand. If I have time once I return home from staying with my dear pal Rushi tomorrow evening I'll update this post with a picture of what I usually carry in mine :)

How do you wear yours? #totesbig or #totessmall?

SUMMER DAZE:

Bag, Marks and Spencer

I picked up this dress a couple of months ago from Topshop - I'd totally forgotten about it, and these pictures, until I spotted it in the sale today for literally 1/3 of the price - SO annoying when that happens! 

It was significantly more revealing than I'd expected and very different to what I'd usually go for, which is definitely why I've not got anywhere near as much wear as I'd thought out of it. 

I'd purchased it without trying it on (I never try anything on instore), as I really loved the willow pattern design and the cute pops of pink. I teamed it with this light-wash oversized denim jacket, also from Toppers, and my scuffy old Vans to go to a local market with my sister. 

Let me know what you'd wear it with, as I definitely need to get some more wear out of it :)

DRESSED TO KILL: #SHARKWEEK


Anyone who knows me, or has seen any of my YouTube videos will know I'm absolutely fanatical about sharks (check out my shark's don't bite pj's here!) I find them utterly endearing and wish I'd concentrated more during my science lessons at school so I could have become a marine biologist (big dreams!) and studied them. Or volunteered for Sea Shepherd <3

I saw a shark fin whilst on a boat trip in New Zealand for no more than three seconds and they were undoubtedly the best three seconds of my life thus far/possibly ever!

To celebrate shark week and promote the critical endangered species I thought I'd share several delightful shark themed accessories with y'all:

1. River Island's white leather cross body bag is the perfect summer accessory, with enough room for your phone, cosmetic case and a cheeky hip-flask it'll see you through all the remaining summer festivals <3 I'm a huge fan of the fringing and, of course, the silver-toned tooth detail.

2. Make a statement with this graphic printed cropped tee by Au Jour Le Jour, I was so distracted by the sharks that I only noticed the star-censored Barbie later... It's currently half the usual price in the sale at Farfetch.com - hurrrryyyy!

3. I'm OBSESSED with this incredible Chantecaille Save The Sharks Eye & Cheek Palette. Inspired by the colours of the ocean with a mixture of deep ocean blues (so AW14) and golden blushes, it's the perfect gift for shark loving gals like me! Chantecaille are also donating 5% of profits from the Save The Sharks range to the BLOOM association (to ban unregulated shark fin trade) which gets a big thumbs up.

4. Handmade in Kent, Beau & Arrow have the cutest shark themed trinkets on the market. Available in silver, rose gold, gold and black ruthenium they're a great way to toughen up your look.

5. Who doesn't love a novelty sock?! This pair from J.Crew add a covetable eclectic edge to any look, simply wear with skinny jeans and your favourite trainers :)

6. Emulate the iconic Jaws moment in this Forever 21 vest!

7. Invest in Givenchy's  iconic shark lock leather bracelet, this red style is the perfect accessory for autumn! I'd wear mine with this Saint Laurent biker jacket and J BRAND jeans (in my dreams!)

8. The notion of a real shark's usually tooth grosses me out beyond belief, however I'm quite a fan of this gold-tone necklace from Revolve. I'd wear mine with a plain white tee and jeans :)

I wanted to share my final contribution to the Reveal's Steals blog with y'all! I'd organised a £50 voucher to coincide with the first post and was so grateful to the babes at Primark who were willing to offer a £100 voucher to accompany this post. I was given a sneak peek at their AW14 collection and fell majorly in love with this super cute neoprene and lace bird print tee and cute powder blue skirt - both are only £10! I teamed the pieces together accessorising with a pair of flatforms from Moda in Pelle and my fave metallic Marks and Spencer bag, which has barely left my shoulder all summer.
