Looking Like: Flowers and Embellishments
I always find it a little hard to dress during the Summer holidays. I know that I won't be seeing anyone I know so I want to be comfy but something about doing my make up and wearing nice new clothes ALWAYS puts me in a good mood! With this in mind, today's outfit couldn't have been better!
This blouse was something I picked up for my final concert at uni. It's a lovely colour and I ADORE the embellished sleeves, they add a Gothic edge that should take me right through Autumn and Winter. The trousers I got in New Look a few days ago and they are my new wardrobe pride and joy! They are unbelievably comfortable and are perfect for the Summer 70s vibe. I wasn't sure about trying this trend as I am very pear shaped and struggle to find flattering styles on my legs but I can honestly recommend these. Plus the cute plaited tan belt comes with them, easy accessorising!
The nail polish is Models Own - Utopia. (Please excuse the state of my nails, I can't remember the last time I had a manicure!). This is such a lovely shade, somewhere in between lilac and nude. Perfect for summer. I have also used the Silver Smash Up also from Models Own on my ring finger. I'm always game for trying new trends on my nails and I quite like how it has turned out. Once it starts chipping I will apply the smash up to every nail, such a quick way to keep your nails fresh without faffing around with base coats top coats etc!
Hope everyone is having a lovely day!
