Highstreet spring/summer 2013

     Primark
     Topshop
    River Island
   H&M






With spring summer just around the corner I thought it would be interesting to show you guys what the british highstreet has instore for the upcoming season and give you guys a heads up on what the recent fashion trends are. I've been seeing a lot of pop on neons at the moment if you remember last year it was all about pastel muted shades this years it's upped the vibrancy and going full on neon, lime green/yellow in particular. I think the best way to pull this trend off would be to have one eye catching key piece and mix in with neuterals to give it a classy artistic vibe rather than a throwback from the 80's. Theres quite a variety of prints out in the highstreet as you can tell from the images above but its one main print mixed with block colour rather than your grandma's curtains and pillow cases thrown into a dress. In my opinion I like the campaign launches all the above shots have made and hopefully their collections will live upto expectations and looks as nice in real life.

Payday haul

So the other day was that day most of us all look forward to.. PAYDAY! since theres been a burst of summer sales recently and i've been itching to buy some certain things i thought why not? everybody deserves a treat right? now i'm sure some long time followers are aware that i'm huge on bargains and love sales wayyy too much. infact it's rare I buy a lot of things full price unless I just can't live without them. anyway on with the haul, heres all the things I did purchase from my little shopping trip and a lot of them are very summer based as I am taking them to Turkey with me early september.
So this top is just a cheap top from primark as I was going to an event where I needed to wear red so I was a little like, eeeek I Don't own a lot of red things in my wardrobe but the cute peter pan collar and reduce price to £3.00 made me just pick it up since, i won't really be that fussed if I never wear it again.

 This I picked up from River island, in the huge summer sale reduced from £35.00 to £10.00 which is a bargain! it  fits like a glove, seriously.. this is in a size 8 and it hides everything you want hiding but the slight sinching in at the waist gives you curves in the appropriate places, and as its a play suit it covers everything south end ( if you know what i mean) which is good for nights out.

 Now this one had to be one of my most loved items i've purchased this little shop, again its from primark and only cost me £5.00 reduced from £13.00.. i love how it reminds me of sweets and again fits so well to my body shape. perfect for holiday.

This one is a little bit of a difficult item to photograph purely because of the way it falls, buts its a skater dress, and this one was actually purchased by my boyfriend as a cute little out of the blue gift, again in sale down to £12.00 from topshop.



This dress was a huge bargain at £8.00 which isn't dear anyway reduced down to £3.00.. i loved the grey and lime green contrast with the wrap cut out core body section, I feel it will look amazing with a tan although the studded detailing did not come on the dress, i put that on myself to give it a little bit of 'something more'


Both of these shoes were originally priced at £13.00 each and went down in the sale at dorothy perkins when i took a recent trip to wales for the smidge price of £3.00. WHAT? saving me twenty pound in total I got two pairs of sandals for £6.00

Overall I feel i did get so many good bargains for holiday, becuase I hate paying full price for things to go on holiday with, the way I see it i'm in them a week or two then there in the suitcase on top of the wardrobe untill next year!

Rita Ora: Get the look

So Rita Ora is becoming a well known huge star and even more loved style Icon to many, her style is similar in way to Rihanna's although I feel Rita's has a bit more of a 'raw edge' to it, like it dosent feel as forced or phased. I'm not slagging on Rihanna I do love her style, i just edge more towards Rita's
(each to their own opinion) Recently I saw this photograph of Rita Ora and thought she looked so amazing so I scowered the internet to find similar items of clothing to recreate this look of hers.


Topshop sheer hem maxi skirt £38.00
-Top shop

White sleevless shirt: £18.00
-River Island


Red Karla quilted clutch: £15.00
-BooHoo.com



Dolly Bow Bow spike necklace £12.00
-Dollybowbow.com


sunglasses £4.99
-H&m
The overall look

- I hope you guys enjoyed this post and found it helpful, It was fun to do as it felt like a little challenge having to recreate an entire outfit from an image but I feel all the products found were reasonably priced and could fit together to make this outfit. If you'd like me to do this for any other celebrity then feel free to post a link to the image and i'll see what I can do, thanks for reading.
