Vero Moda Lace Collar Shirt

Shirt: Vero Moda* - £10, Shorts: Glamorous* - £7, Necklace: Tessie's*, Sunglasses: Primark, Laptop Bag: Apple Store, Sandals: Primark

From the Get the Label event I went to last month we were all kindly given a £30 voucher to spend online. Surprisingly the majority of the things online were super cheap and affordable, so I managed to pick up a few things.
I choose this cream shirt from Vero Moda because I needed more lighter colours in my wardrobe and I LOVE the lace collar, it's so dainty and girly. Words that I wouldn't normally associated my wardrobe with haha.
Also these city shorts from Glamorous were £7 on sale, navy suede and finished off with a ribbon tie. What a perfect combination! ♥
To finish off the outfit I grabbed my trusty 'Zara inspired' sandals from Primark and my laptop bag, and I would say this would be a great summer outfit for work. But for now it's time for the weeeeekend! x

Primark Denim Jacket

Denim Jacket: Primark, Necklace: Tessie*, Top: H&M, Pants: Hong Kong, Wedges: Primark

Denim and hareem pants kinda day, partly because I wanted to wear my new denim jacket - but I didn't have my usual go to collection of shorts/pants to hand, so I had to settle for these crazy ass style hareem pants which I got years ago from Hong Kong when they were all the rage. I remember seeing one of the sales assistants wearing them and then thinking, omg she looks so cool! So ykno, like the impressionable sheep I am, I copied her x

May - Manchester Blogging Events

Last month I attended the most blogging events ever! and I wanted to share a few snaps with you I managed to take on the nights. I've honestly had the best time at every single one, met so many lovely bloggers and put blog names to faces that I can't wait to see more blogging events hosted up North. Also massive thanks to Joanna who blogs at Minty Essence who I met at my very fist blog event many months ago for getting me last minute places to all of these! I'm so bad, I can never keep up with all the events, parties and get togethers! She is the most sweetest girl and you should definitely check out her blog :) x

SOUTHBEACH

Situated in the middle of Spinningfields, the Southbeach event was held at a cute little frozen yoghurt place where we were greeted with delicious fruit smoothies, strawberry daiquiris and small pots of frozen yoghurt filled with toppings of our choice. The event was super laid back and casual that it felt like a we were all having a massive catch up with your girlfriends over drinks!

SWIM365

Hosted at the newest hotspot in town just off Deansgate we headed to the fabulous Rev de Cuba for the Swim365 event. We had our own room away from the main restaurant with a private bar and a nail booth, whilst a waitresses walked the room with delicious hot food. We nibbled through spicy chicken skewers (and when I say spicy, my god it.was.spicy!!), cheese peppery things and took massive advantage of our free drinks wristband!

GET THE LABEL

For the Get The Label event we were directed underground to a quaint little bar in the heart of the Northern Quarter. There were loads going on with the dj playing, video sessions in the corner and styling competitions, everyone got the chance to interact with each other and have a great time!

Prodigy Red Maxi

Top: Zara, Necklace: Tessie*, Maxi: Prodigy Red*, Belt: Primark, Sandals: Zara, Sunglasses: Primark, Bag: Hong Kong

Last week I paired this lovely turquoise Maxi dress from Prodigy Red with a fine knit jumper from Zara, and in a rush as always, I belted it with the first belt I found from my bedroom floor - which I think is from Primark! Sunglasses at the ready, sandals in one hand and the same bag I've been carrying for weeks in the other, I headed to Salford Quays - right by the new BBC's Media City. This area has been redevelop and improved so much we almost decided to rent an apartment here right by the river which would have been amazing to wake up to, but in the end we decided for an apartment right in the city center - although it's not riverside I was located only 10mins away from Selfridges, Zara and Priamrk! Of course, I compromised the views for easy shopping haha
Anyway it's the weekend (yay!) and I have nothing planned except a fatty fat buffet on Sunday for someone's birthday.
Happy Weekend! xx

Primark White Blazer & Blue Floral Pants

Blazer: Primark, Vest: H&M, Pants: Primark, Shoes: Primark, Sunglasses: Primark

I've been trying to find the perfect white blazer and this is... not it. haha.
The shape, style, fit and colour is all great, but it really lacks some sort of structure and density in the fabric - (surprisingly quite see through at the back and feels rather flimsy) so what could have been an amazing steal of a blazer is actually quite... meh. But of course I bought it anyway because I can't ever seem to leave a Primark empty handed! I guess it will have to do for now and it will fill those, 'All I need is a white blazer' moments. But the search continues for the perfect white - (not ivory or cream), but a white blazer!
Also experiencing much love for these Primark blue floral pants. The colour, the print, the fit. I'm sold. xx
