MINK PINK X CHRISTINA PERRI

images taken from www.minkpink.com

From grunge to girly, you get it all with Mink Pink's SS14 campaign x Christina Perri! The voice behind Twilight's dramatic ending!! Boho prints and hardcore shapes, they've made sure there is something for every girl to release your inner rock chick. I want it all, and now! Even though it never stops raining in Manchester (standard) I'm sure these petty dresses and dungarees would look super cute with some tights and boots, right!? I mean, its genuinely hard for me to choose a favourite piece from this collection, but it would have to be between the cream angel wing playsuit and the black and white print t-shirt dress (as seen on the Triumph bike). But i'd happily have everything in my new primed and painted wardrobe! What girl wouldn't!?

So keep your eyes peeled for these pieces girls, they're ones to catch!!

SUN MOON AND STARS BY MOTEL ROCKS

Dress - Motel Rocks / Hat - Topshop / Boots - Jeffrey Campbell / Velvet Cover Up - Charity Shop

So you must excuse the messy background right now, wee in the middle of decorating the bedroom and its all up the air to be honest! Anyway, I know I've been away for quite a while, everything has been so busy! BUT I'm back!! This little dress I got before Christmas and its one of my all time favourites already, the sun moon and stars dress from Motel Rocks. Magical and perfect to go with any little pair of black boots you've got knocking around! And to mention the fabulous criss-cross back?? To Die! I was happy to wake up to 2 pairs of Jeffrey Campbells this Christmas and my birthday (been on boxing day) and these haven't really come off my feet yet!! I'm working on a new layout for my blog so expect some changes peoples!

PAISLEY BOHEMIAN DREAM DRESS

Dress - Chairty Shop / Boots - Topshop / Cuff - Carboot / Necklace - Homemade

Yet again the cat sneaked in to the living room and managed to photo bomb at least one photo... the others he was kinda looking at me like 'what the hell is she doing...' 

This is my favourite most recent charity shop purchase, it's quite mahoosive but its a dream to wear!! The paisley print in pink and purple is perfect for summer going in to a/w too. Paired it with some grungey lil boots from topshop, quite a casual look i think for the day. Last night i rolled the dress up and tied it at one side asymmetrically with a bobble and wore it with my ripped up old black skinnies... it works! I picked up this great cuff from a carboot last week too, engraved with aztec navajo patterns on it, it goes perf with my homemade choker, yet again made from my boyfriends inherited pendants. The colours tie in with the dress too i think! 

Its getting a bit chilly now isn't it guys, so i think i'd have to put a little shawl on with this or an over sized blazer to keep me from dying a cold (i'm always cold, even when the heating is on). Honestly, i wore my big black fur French Connection coat, because its like wearing a big hug :)

Navajo Gypsy Maxi

Dress - Charity Shop / Shoes - Topshop / Bracelets - h&m and eBay

This was one of my amazing finds from the charity shop haul the other day. The pattern just stood out to me straight away as i love anything and everything Navajo, perfect for summer days and holidays being light silk material n all!! And obviously the floaty sleeves and hem line make it extremely comfortable.

I kept the dress on for the BBQ i went to that night, and i got a lot of compliments on it! It's a slightly bigger size than i usually purchase but for this style i think it works. My plans were to alter it so it was more fitted around my waist however once i had tried it on, i changed my mind. The elastic band around the mid-drift doesn't sit too tightly then. I hope your not getting too bored of seeing these boots yet, i do have more than one pair i promise! I just love them too much, my little Topshop specials. 

I picked up a small Navajo style bracelet too from h&m to go with my cuff that i had purchased off eBay already. Coincidentally matching the turquoise colour included in the print of this dress. You could put any jewellery with this though because its so vibrant. I thought gold cuffs would work too with a small pair of tan sandals.
