I’ve been making the most of the lovely weather by cramming in as many summery outfits as I can! This weekend I wore my new Sass & Bide inspired dress from SheInside – a bargain at £22. The bright colours of the top part are perfect for a sunny day, and they allow you to be creative with jewellery or accessories as you can wear anything in the pinks, blues, greens and blacks of the dress without it being too much. I wore mine with black jelly sandals from Topshop (an old item unfortunately, but you can get similar here), Prada style sunglasses and YSL style ring both from eBay (similar here and here), Topshop earrings and super sweet Marc By Marc Jacobs disc bracelet (finally something which is actually a designer brand!).
Dress – SheInside* | Sandals – Topshop
Unfortunately the SheInside dress only comes in ‘one size’, I would say it fits approximately like a UK size 8/10 but there is some stretch to the top – do check the measurements on the item page too!

Dress – Lavish Alice* | Sandals – Desire* | Headband – Primark | Sunglasses – ASOS
‘Red and green should never been seen’ is definitely not true when it comes to clothes and hair colour, in my opinion! Green is one of my favourite colours to wear with my current hair colour, and even if you don’t have red hair it’s a great stand-out colour on anyone – this grass-green dress from Lavish Alice is a perfect way to wear it. It’s super simple without being boring and I felt very summery wearing it yesterday in the hot weather, but it could easily be a dress for all seasons worn with black tights, a leather biker and a studded belt perhaps. Yesterday I accessorised it with white (faux) leather sandals from Desire, super cute daisy headband from Primark and Miu Miu-esque sunglasses from ASOS.

Dungaree dress – SheInside* | T-shirt – American Apparel | Bag – Primark | Boots – Clarks Originals via eBay | Ring- Lovebird Jewellery*
Today’s summery weather called for an outing for my SheInside dungaree dress. A bit of a ‘bandwagon’ piece at the moment, but I’m still very much a fan! They’re a bit of a DIY job – when mine arrived I had to add some fastenings myself (all included of course, you simply have to attach them) however the straps are completely adjustable which is great. I love the combination of denim and horizontal stripes, I think that an outfit like this would be perfect for a festival. I also wore my new Primark satchel (a bargain at £9), Clarks Originals Wallabee boots (a great eBay find, as these aren’t too common in ladies sizes), old Topshop mac and super cute ring by Lovebird Jewellery, a great jewellery store full of pretty and very affordable bracelets and pendants!

Skirt – ASOS | Bag – eBay | Shoes – Choies*
An outfit from last week. I’m obsessed with my new shoes from Choies! The monochrome colourway is perfect, and they’re super comfortable unlike many of my shoes which aren’t trainers, making them even more appealing. They’re also great for both everyday and dressier occasions – a really great addition to my collection. I wore them with a gorgeous pleated midi skirt I got in the ASOS sale a while back, they still have some sizes left here, and at £21 it’s a bargain! The top is an old charity shop buy, but a striped long-sleeve is definitely a wardrobe essential. I’m also wearing my new orange eBay bargain bag which I posted about here – I absolutely love the Givenchy-esque shape and it’s a great size too. It has no inside pockets which is a little annoying, but for £11.68 that’s not a deal breaker!

A simple black and white outfit from a sunny day! I bought myself some new trainers for the first time in ages the other day – black and white Nike Roshe Runs. I already own the Roshe Runs in Digi Camo, but I wanted this super plain pair as they’ll go with any outfit. They’re also the comfiest trainers in the entire world! I wore them with some more mesh paneling in this top from Choies (out of stock at the moment, but there’s a similar version here), and although I’m a little late to the party with the wrap skorts (other than the ones I owned as a small child!), I’m loving them at the moment. The sizing on the original Zara version wasn’t right for me, but these from Romwe are perfect – I also have a white version from SheInside and recently ordered them in blue for a bargain £5.99 from eBay!

Dress – MissGuided* | Clutch – Primark | Shoes – Primark | Jacket – NastyGal
Last night I ventured out for the last Law School social of the year (I have finished my exams, woo!). I’m not much of a clubber, but I do love the dressing up part. I’m obsessed with this dress from MissGuided, inspired by Alexander Wang’s SS13 catwalk looks, including the top and skirt combination worn by Rihanna (below), but obviously without the hefty price tag – the skirt below would set you back a huge £1673! The ‘Robena‘ dress is now sold out, however keep your eye out for restocks or check out the similar Sereny and Daiva dresses, or the Danasha playsuit.
I initially wore my dress with these strappy heels which were a bargain £12 from Primark, however ended up changing to my comfortable JC Tardys before I reached the club as these were so uncomfortable and were tearing my feet to shreds! Sadly I think I’m going to have to retire them (and the other 2 colours I own…) for events which involve much less dancing and invest in a pair with a chunkier and smaller heel.
How do you feel about the mesh paneling trend? Would you dare to (sort of) bare?

Not much to say about this super casual outfit – all black is always a safe bet! I’m wearing my new croc effect leather trousers from MissGuided with an old Rottweiler print t-shirt (Givenchy but not quite) from Urban Outfitters and a pair of Air Max 1s with a similar colourway to my t-shirt.
I’ve been after a pair of leather trousers for a while, and this pair from MissGuided are great! They’re faux leather, and I didn’t find them to be too sweaty to wear. They are very tight and don’t have much stretch in them, so I would recommend sizing up if you’re between sizes, but other than that are a great alternative to jeans or leggings for day or evening!

Dress – bonprix* | Bag – Vivienne Westwood | Belt – Primark | Shoes – Vans
Yesterday I enjoyed the nice weather in this super cute vintage style tea dress from bonprix. Also available in red, it looks great belted or not and would be flattering on almost any figure. I wore the dress with my battered old vans yesterday, but a cute pair of white brogues or some strappy sandals would make an outfit perfect for a summer BBQ or garden party, or casual meal out.
