Leopard jeans OOTD….


Top - Cotton On (Australia)
Handbag & Sandals - Aldo
Jeans - Miss Selfridge
Sunglasses - Ray Ban
Watch - ASOS
Necklace - Topshop

I've really been enjoying sticking to the basics recently….I can't think of anything better than pairing a plain t-shirt with a staple sandal and a pair of interesting bottoms. These leopard jeans FINALLY fit me again after loosing all my Australia weight and I couldn't be happier to have them back in my daily wardrobe rotation 

How would everyone style leopard print (or just patterned) jeans?

Ombre, brights and rips...


Shirt - Vera Moda
Jeans - River Island
Watch - ASOS

I'm loving everything casual right now…and ripped jeans paired with loose shirts are my absolute go-to, especially now it's cooled down slightly (still sandal weather though luckily! Yay!)

Casual denim dungarees OOTD...


I've barely taken these dungarees off recently… I love them with vests, bandeaus, jumpers, tee's, checked shirts (the list goes on) underneath, and they're so comfy! I'm hoping they'll take me right through summer and into Autumn with jumpers underneath :)


Dungarees - Tempt
Watch - ASOS
Vest - Primark
Boat Shoes - Office
Sunglasses - Cotton On 

How else do you style dungarees?

Who wants to go for frozen yogurt...neon OOTD....



I love this top....it really shows off a tan, and the sunshine yellow can't help to put me in a great mood!


Coconut frozen yogurt with fresh strawberries, watermelon, and granola. Hashtag yummy. 




A few shots at Mooloolaba. I need to pinch myself daily....asif I live here. Best make the most of it before I come home to drizzly cold UK at the end of the month!

Aztec brights OOTD....


Dress - Primark 
Boots - Dr Marten
Bag - Australian market
Watch - Jag at Myer (Australia)

Just a casual outfit for shopping in Brisbane a little while ago, beautiful weather but still needed some good shoes for pounding the pavements and dragging the boyfriend around all the makeup shops!
On a side note, I'm loving how my hair has got natural ombre from the sunshine!

Oh summer, how I love you. Unfortunately since this picture was taken it's taken a turn for the even more hot and humid and I think my days of wearing boots are over for the foreseeable future.

"You look like you were in a fight with a T-Rex" OOTD....

Top - present from Florida
Shorts - Myer (Australia)
Converse - Office
Bag - Australia market
Bandeau - New Look

I've been wearing this to death recently, I love the effect and detailing in this top, it looks so effortless with a pair of converse and denim shorts like I've styled it above, or with a pretty bra under and a pair of skinny jeans and heels for a night out. A nod to the grunge trend, without going over board :)

How else would you style this top?

The best dress for hiding a food baby OOTN....

Dress - Trade Secrets (Australias version of TK Maxx)
Bag - Australia market
Boots - ASOS
Jacket - Topshop

 Dresses and boots are by far my favourite combination at the moment, even though it's pretty much summer over here now I'm not read to give them up just yet! So I'm totally in love with this dress, so much so that I bought it in black too. It's the perfect 'I'm going out for a meal and I'm going to certainly develop a food baby' dress. I was actually going out for Thai food this night so I'm glad I opted for this rather than jeans!

Denim shorts and a t-shirt is my go-to summer outfit choice, and as it's heating up over here it's what I've been reaching for more and more on a daily basis. 


T-shirt - market
Belt - New Look
Shorts - Myer (Australia)
Chain - Colette (Australia)


I can see my t-shirt collection slowly expanding from here on out.

What's everyone's go-to outfit at the moment?

You're gonna hear me roar...

Sunglasses & watch - ASOS
Dress - Ice (Australia)
Sandals - Aldo


I'm so into my maxi dresses at the moment....such an easy summer staple now the weather is heating up and I can't be bothered to faff around with picking outfits that look good and keep me cool. Also, props to my Aldo sandals I picked up in the sale before I came away to Aus...considering I'm not a 'sandal person' I've lived in them

Top Tans...

It's coming into summer over here in Australia and, unfortunately, I'm stuck inside working everyday rather than working on my tan on the beach. But that's life. And that's why, I believe, they invented fake tan. I need to get bronzed somehow so I've turned to the bottle...




The Palmers Natural Bronze gradual tanning moisturizer is holy grail in my eyes. Yes it smells a bit strong (my poor boyfriend hates it) but the colour is so natural and wears the best out of any gradual tanners I've tried. I apply this twice a week (say Sunday and Wednesday night) with lots of moisturising and a gentle exfoliation on the days in-between. 

I can't believe I'm about to admit this but this is the first St.Tropez item I've ever tried. I know, I know, call yourself a beauty blogger.... I wouldn't say I was completely blown away with this considering the price tag (although I did get it on the Feel Unique sale) but it's a really subtle colour if I'm not wanting anything too dramatic. I actual find that if I apply this after I've been in the sun, it enhances my real tan while giving me a bit of extra colour in a super natural way. Also...smells really inoffensive for a tan!

Le Tan instant Fast Tan in Deep Bronze isn't so much 'Instant' but it's definitely 'Deep Bronze'. If I apply one layer of this at lunch time, by the evening I look like I've done two weeks in the sun and then some! It does transfer onto clothes a bit so probably avoid white but for a quick fix I adore this. If you shower then moisturise the next day, you're still left with a light bronze colour that looks perfect with a sun dress and sandals for the daytime.

What's everyone else's tan recommendations?

Man's t-shirt OOTD...

Being a fan of men's clothes over women's most of the time (how come they have much cooler t-shirt designs than us??!) I was only too willing to help the bf out when he only liked one t-shirt in the 2 for $30 offer in JayJays recently. Their 'oversized' range have a great cut and I got away with a size small to wear as a dress!

Little grey dress OOTD...

 


 

Dress - Valley Girl (Australia)
Shirt - Primark
Boots - Dr Martens 
Bag - Australian market
Necklace and rings - Primark
Watch and sunglasses - ASOS

This dress was so inexpensive I picked one up in most colours. They're going to be great for summer when I'm down the beach to throw over a bikini, and I'll bring them home to layer up with tights and chunky cardigans for the UK winter.
