B O H E M I A N M A D N E S S

So today is the day that I have handed in my final assignment, and with no exams this time round I am more than pleased to say that I have finished my second year of uni! Luckily, the sun is shining which means playing around with clothes can get a bit more interesting over the next few days! Today however, I'm slumped in bed because everyone else is busy with exams/deadlines and I'm trying to catch up on sleep before I celebrate the end of second year tonight. Instead of sleeping though, I'm coming up with looks and todays is Bohemian Madness.

At 5'4 (ish) I've always feared the long skirt. It's something that I thought only the taller ladies could get away with, and it was only last week that I purchased my first one! I'm so glad that I did, I might be their number one fan now, especially when they come in loud vibrant prints. The one above fits this criteria, this one has a very Vanessa Hudgens bohemian vibe to it which I absolutely love. The colours are amazing to play around with, especially when it comes to clashing! 

This is where the clashing comes in, mixing with a purple shade of lipstick and peach nail varnish it all just sounds like a crazy horrific mix, right? But I think it really works with this look as it all works together to create an incredibly bold statement look, the crazier the better! When it comes to makeup on days where it is this hot, I tent to stay away from applying much of it and just have my sunglasses glued to my face instead. Well not literally glued, because that would be weird I guess, but sunglasses do have a lot of potential to make or break your outfit and the circular shape ones work so well here! The arm cuff is my favourite part of this outfit, I absolutely love them and feel they can add some very amazing final touches to a look.

What do you reckon, is there a space in your wardrobe for the long skirt this summer?

monochrome madness

Everybody is loving monochrome right now, and I have no problems with that what so ever! Black has always been one of my favourite colours when it comes to clothes, my whole wardrobe is basically black. I don't know why but I just feel like its such an interesting colour to play around with when it comes to style, especially when mixing it up with accessories! 

Everything on this clothes board I basically need in my life right now. It makes up such a perfect outfit for day wear when the sun is coming out and for a night out,so I'd pretty much be getting great value for money! Juju's are beautiful and I am a HUGE fan of jelly shoes, especially when they are layered up with frilly socks. I'm a sucker for frilly socks they are super cute and work so well when it comes to adding a girly hint to any outfit! The top and skirt are both from Motel Rocks, a place that I have loved for a very long time and I will always love. Who can blame me when they offer 20% off with Unidays?! The watch and bracelet are both simplistic but stick to the monochrome scheme which is both classy and fabulous at the same time! The bag is so lovely too, I'm a huge fan of oversized bags so a duffle style one this size is perfecto. Especially when I'm the sort of girl who pretty much throws everything from her room into her handbag! Terrible aren't I? But I doubt I'm the only girl who does that! The lipstick I feel brings the whole outfit together, I've never tried a lipstick so dark that it is practically black but it works so well with this. I'll defo be purchasing some, the darkest I've done is a blackish purple, but full black will be on my wish list when it comes to loan day!

What do you think of monochrome?

Sneak Peak

sneak peak by reencoco featuring a strapless dress

Heres a little sneak peak to the outfit that I am wearing to my University ball tomorrow night! I'm not the sort of girl who enjoys dressing up so it's been quite tough for me to pick something to wear, on a night out you will find me literally wearing what I wear through out the day. I just find getting ready boring ugh. So I guess in some ways shopping for the ball has been slightly exciting for me, because it's something I'm not used to! I opted for this red dress from Motel which is beautiful. I've never worn red so it's quite daring of me to do so, so hopefully it doesn't look absolutely stupid on me! I'm a huge huge fan of Motel. I've gone for a pair of chunky heels which is a huge swap for my usual Dr Martens. The balls starting at 7 and we're going out after so I thought a chunkier heel would be comfortable for after ball antics. To clash up with the colours I've decided to go for a Jimmy Choo bag in beige, it works so well with the red and gives a more feminine touch to my outfit. I'm going to paint my nails red which is nothing new, I LOVE red nails. And my good old Mac Lipstick is defo going to make a showing, how sassy of me?


I'll be taking loads of pics tomorrow so keep your eyes peeled! Roll on the night of champagne!
