 Ciao pretties.x

Sorry, this is totally un-fashion related. But wow,  I love 'UP' from Disney, and here they've recreated it FOR REAL.

COLOUR COLLECTION.

 I recently posted about Colour Pants being in for Spring Summer 2011, and since then have been building my collection. (Although I did already have 2 pairs of the trousers), I have recently added to my collection with the pastel pink shorts from New Look, and the gorgeous mint green trousers from Zara. I still want to find a pair of Royal Blue skinnies to finish off the collection, hehe.

THRIFTING.

 My mum bought me this lovely genuine leather bag from Spain found in a charity shop. It's lovely and perfect for Summer and the festival season. For only £3.95 it's such a great price. I was very happy to find this treat on my bed when I returned home for the weekend.

Another bargain buy was found in a different charity shop near to my house. It's a crochet halterneck, backless top from Bay (old school!). Crochet is bang on trend for Spring Summer 2011,  so I couldn't resist buying this top, and for £2.45, I can't complain! 

You should try shopping in thrift stores, as it is sustainable, goes to a good cause and of course there are also some real treasures to be found. It can take a lot of time and effort, but if you're up for a rummage, it's totally worth it!

SHORTS.

 Today I bought these lovely paperbag waist dusty pink shorts from New Look, for a bargain £17.99 and even cheaper with student discount. Perfect teamed up with a plain tee, or vest top. 

Bring on summer!

KITSCH.

I found this photograph through Google and I can't seem to find the original link. But I could not resist sharing how cute these nails are. Must try it out, although probably safer trying to get a professional doing it, I'm too impatient. hehe.

COLOURPANTS.
A few of my favourites...

 

These gorgeous mint green jeans are going to be my next purchase, £19.99 from Zara.

Perfect for Spring Summer 2011.

Again these lovely pastely pink/nude frayed denim shorts are from Zara at £19.99 they are a little pricey, but I tried them on and I'm in love.

MOTO dusty pink jeans from Topshop, £40.

CUT OUT.

 

 A really easy way to update the ol'denim shirt. Cut out the front panels (if the shirt has them, some don't!) and you've got yourself an instantly updated top/dress perfect for Spring Summer 2011.

OMG. 

MOTO at Topshop.

I really need these in my life right now, but at £62 they are a little too pricey. They are amazing and combining lots of things I LOVE at the moment; skinny, studs, american flag & frays. HEAVEN.

To fringe or not to fringe?
That is the question.

I had a fringe a few months back now, and my hair is usually like the last image, (Yes it was fancy dress I was a A Toy Soldier hehe). I'm not sure whether to go back to a blunt fringe or keep it to a sidey? and also not sure whether to get it cut shorter like Frankie from The Saturdays? Help!

Getting my hair did next Tuesday... decisions decisions.

Barry M.

Similar to the Models Own collab with WAH Nails, Barry M instant effect nail varnish has just declared they to will have more colour options. Pink, Blue, White & Black. I've only tried the Black (as you can see above) but totally need to get on this.

Available now from:

At £3.99 it's a bargain for a quick revamp to your nails.
 

I'm so excited eeeeeeeeep!

Rocky Road Cake Pop.

Lovely free treat from Starbucks after ordering a drink.

They also have cake pops. They are tasty and just look so pretty.

DIY STUDSPIRATION. 

I have previously posted about studding your own items, so if you are interested in finding out how then check older posts! Just started doing this pair of shorts today after getting inspiration from the post before this. x

STUD.

All of these images are from an eBay store 

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Runwaydreamz?_trksid=p4340.l2563

Where they have a huuuuge range of vintage studded, dyed, frayed denim shorts to buy.

I LOVE them, but unfortunately can't afford them. So I have studded my own shorts, also will have to get on the die and try that out. Hopefully this post will give you some studspiration. x
