Spring Forward | OOTD

16 days later and I'm finally blogging. I'm not going to go on about why I haven't blogged - there's no excuse! So anyway its officially turned to the season of Spring!! I have been dying for a little bit of sun, especially as I've been trying to keep fit and tone and what not.. I'm just merely excited for dresses, skirts, play-suits, the lot. I think there's just so much more to play around with in the warmer seasons.

The leather jacket was from River Island with an amazing 25% off because it was voted by people on Facebook. I had already latched eyes on to this product in the store so it would have been rude of me not to take advantage of this. ^.^  I snapped it up in a size 8 and fell in love with it straight away, it was a little longer than my Topshop one which was different as I didn't want a similar jacket to the one I already had. I paired it with my floral lace dress in cream from Forever21 and my printed scarf from new look as the weathers is not yet at boiling point. The boots are also from River Island which I wore with my Topshop ankle socks. The holdall is from Topshop, I think its a great size and it also has a shoulder strap.

*Towards the evening it got a little nippy of which I stuck some tights on.*

I can't wait to see more Spring street styles! What have you been loving this Spring?

As versatile as a pair of black pumps

H&M strappy sandals


Hi guys, hope you are all well. These baby's are my pair of strappy sandals that I knew I just had to pick these up because of the price, the block (easy walking) heel and  the velcro fastening (again easy).


These beauties are my latest fashion love because as I said in my previous post on strappy sandals they go with anything that you can make work. I have only yet paired them with my Easy A American Apparel Jeans from Asos and rolled them up to ankle height to show a bit of skin  which gives the elongation effect on my legs and giving it more of elegant and feminine look.


+ a better way to show off this summers nail pots on your tippy toes - unlike peep toes !!


on a scale one 1 being comfortable and 10 being painful I would say the comfort of these shoes fall on a number 4.
The strap at the front of the shoe does tend to rub quite a bit on the toe where I have had to wear plasters which don't really stay put (annoying). I've lasted well in these heels for 9 hours the most and  personally I'm usually in ankle wedged boots most days rather than flats.


H&M are also doing other colours in these shoes * metallic silver *


I definitely still want to invest in the Zara strappy sandals out the lot and even the new look ones maybe, but then I hate getting similar dupes because I think I'll fall in love with one specific item and forget about the other one (which has happened and I do a lot of that). Also to be honest with the weather being all wet and wild  I feel as though I'd rather invest in something I can get use out of. But they are still ever so pretty to wear at any occasion :)

Sorry for the poor quality just thought I'd show how they looked on me,

What would you pair them with?

Boyfriends Buntastic BBQ for two

Hey guys so I thought to share you with you a few pictures I took last Friday when the weather was raring to go..* unlike today * 

I've never really had a proper big family type BBQ probably for the obvious reason - Big Family, which is why I can't wait to have a family of my own and make it big whether its a small number or big. I must say I enjoyed this one thoroughly. Its even better because although my family is scattered I fortunately get to enjoy the other halves family get-together's. I can remember two BBQ's one of which was at my Uncle and Aunts house back in Manchester which is amazing because my auntie knows how to make everything sparkle and she even made her own punch. The second time was three years back now to my first year at uni where it was the end of exams and all that hard work had been accomplished...myself, Ume, and a few other uni mates decided to kick back at uni halls garden with the little portable BBQ's. We even had to warm up the food in the oven first because of how awful those little BBQ's were but it was a pleasant time and something I miss dearly *so much fun*.

So this Friday just gone was absolutely amazing even with the two of us it was just ever so nice and as it was a spur of the moment thing, as Ume called me after I finished work asking if I was up for it I didn't really see any good reason in turning it down, especially with the weather. We managed to catch somewhat of the sun as we shot off to the shops to grab a few things. The only let down was the fact that we were disappointed because we couldn't find anything lamb type to grill (and we love lamb) in all the places we went. But it was still such an epic time with the frankfurters, the sausages, the chicken wings, the Mediterranean vegetables and the quorn burgers (that came out amazing thanks to my amazing chef).  Yup, that's the boyfriend. 

I just love BBQ's its just the best way to eat food hot off the trot, all the glorious sunshine and just being outdoors.
