Pure Whites & Neutrals

Sunday, 17 June 2012


"Shirley loves her whites and neutrals!"

I can't exactly pin-point where my obsession with this colour palette stemmed from, but for as long as I can remember I've always loved it. The sheer clean and fresh nature of it is what keeps me coming back to it. I love how chic a garment in the white or neutral colour family looks on.
These are my favourite pieces, and they will be making regular appearances on the blog!

Neon Fever!

Wednesday, 6 June 2012



Oh yes. I've caught it. And before I knew it, I had accumulated quite a few neon pieces, this pair of heels being one of them. It's vibrant, it's extrovert but I believe one of the ways to rock Neon without looking over the top, is to have it as an accent. I wished for dry weather as I donned these, and I was given it... for a couple of hours! Ha! 

Neon Heels : H&M
Leggings : Zara
Top : Primark
Jacket : H&M
Clutch : New Look (Mum's!)
Earrings : Primark

A Few New Things!

Friday, 1 June 2012


Hello! It's so nice to finally be blogging again! It feels like ages since my last post, and although I'm not officially done with my exams (Last one is next Friday!) I just couldn't stay away! Here are a few new purchases of mine!

Eau de Toilette | Miss Dior, 50ml (£51.00)
I was on the hunt for a new scent for summer and was suggested by a few of you on Twitter to try Miss Dior, and my oh my, it is such a lovely scent. Very sweet with some floral tones, a lovely pick for this summer!

Peplum Top | Zara (£19.99)
I popped into Zara with the intention to just look around and came across this Peplum number, and being a fan of white tops, I just couldn't let it go. 

Clutch | Charity Shop (£5.00)
It's amazing when you find such a nice piece unexpectedly, just like this little clutch I found in my local charity shop! The neutral colour is perfect and I can see this going really well with lots of items in my summer wardrobe!

Lipglosses | Revlon Colour Burst in Shades "Strawberry Fraise" & "Sizzle Canicule" (£7.99 ea.)
Juicy Lips are in! I can't wait to show you what these look like on the lips! I have a few Tutorials up my sleeve, so keep your eyes peeled!

How have you all been? Hope you're well!

I'm on Instagram, so make sure you follow me !
