VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE TEE. MISSGUIDED FLARES

We all see skinny jeans knocking all over the place nowadays so I'm taking it back to the live free, have fun, love each other days today on the blog! This is the perfect comfy slip on outfit, the bell bottoms are stretch and I'd say a lot more comfortable than any of the skinny jeans I own. 

Angel of the South... (bell bottom lace crochet all things pretty worded sleeve dress)

Dress - Asos (old) / Hat and Shoes - Topshop

First things first, i do not know what the yellow thing is next to the pot, apologies.. haha! ... THIS, is one hell of a dress right? It's one of my all time faves. I got it from Asos last year, sorry peeps :( although i have had a mooch and there are some similar designs on there so get looking!!! I brought it originally for a birthday and it was massive, and i didn't wear it until the other day when i was going through my wardrobe, and now it fits like a glove... so my guess is my sister has had a cheeky borrow and then shrunk it in the wash... 

Anyway, it features lace crochet sleeves that flare out at the end, kind of like bell bottom sleeves, and remind me of the crochet place mats you used to get at your nans! Or is that just me? They're a great contrast to the silk and chiffon body and the cut out in the back. Obviously styled with black... its all i ever wear. 

Happy bank holiday lovlies... Elysia

Braidy Bunch

Kimono - RI / Leotard - American Apparel / Bell bottoms - New Look

Necklace - RI

Let me explain the title of this post first, i watched the braidy bunch last week on tv and was reminded of how absolutely amazing the fashion was back in the 70's, flares and crazy patterns ... who doesnt love em? So this inspired this latest blog post. Even down to the bare feet...

I actually felt like a proper spiritual hippie amongst the bushes and stuff too ha!

This was on again 'one of the hottest days of the year' (how many have we had?!) i've had this Kimono a while now, i picked it up from the holiday section in River Island for a Christening, and i literally try to put it with every outfit i wear. Anything with tassels on lately i just fall in love with!

Obviously, when do American Apparel ever fail? Every piece they launch is super duper lush, especially these leotards that are everywhere now! Perfect with everything and anything. 

Lashings of jewellery as always before my day ahead of gardening (a girls gotta try ehy?)
