*OOTW*

Hey :)

So I've decided to try out something new on my blog and create outfits of the week. There are so many things that I currently want, instead of the usual wish list, I've decided to post wish outfits shall we call them. It is something that I have decided to do to bring regularity to my blogging as right now I will admit I just post when I feel like and have time. I hope you enjoy reading these types of posts and please comment with other ideas you may have.

So this week I have found myself lusting over all items black and white. The reason? I've never realised before how simple but stylish a black and white outfit could be.

They are neutral colours making them so easy to match with each other and if you keep the outfit totally monochrome then it can look so effortlessly stylish.

I'm not so fussed on the smart look as it reminds me of a school or work uniform but a comfy casual outfit like jeans and a tee teamed with a few statement accessories will have heads turning and just shout style.

All these items are currently on my wish list and eventually hopefully I will get around to buying them.

Hat and Shoes both Ebay/ T-Shirt- Killer Kondo/ Jeans- Topshop/ Bag- River Island

So what do you think? Would you wear this outfit? Also if your feeling brave you could throw on some geek glasses for fun :)

Hope you enjoyed reading,

Charlotte

*Sales*

I have finally found some time in amongst my busy life to take photos of my sale items. Instead of the usual lay out on a bed I've decided to take photos of what the items look like on. Since I have just taken a simple photo of how they fit rather than how I would wear them they look a little basic so use your imagination and maybe suggest how you would style them below.

I always tend to be drawn to shorts, trousers or skirts of some form which means I have a lack of tops in my wardrobe to go with my love of bottoms, so I decided that I was going to put my money to use and invest in some pretty tops and when better to do that than in the sales :)

I always find that when the sales are on shops just bring out a extra stock lurking in their warehouses and try to pass them of as this season sales which can be so annoying, anyone else noticed this?

However, this year I've tried to look past that and all the winter clothing, which in a few months will no longer be use to me, and I've found some tops which I will be able to wear into the spring and summer.

I've recently downloaded a new app on my phone called Pic Collage and if you haven't already then get it! It's so cool for a free app and I decided to use it to post my pictures today!

What do you think? Which is your favourite?

I'd love to hear how you would style them to add to my ideas so leave a comment :)

*Better Late Than Never*

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year to you all!!!

A bit late I know but going home for Christmas with only hand luggage means that unfortunately I cannot take my laptop as it's too heavy which means I was unable to blog :( Bad times!!!

Bey hey ho I'm back and settled for my second semester in Spain and I can now share my holiday with you all :)

I was a very lucky girl this year and was spoilt once again. I won't go into detail and name all my presents but my favs were my Ugg slippers... Sooo cosy and warm, and my Chanel bag... Sooo beautifully amazing!!! My holidays we're filled with family funs, too much food and Harry Potter movies!! My boyfriend and I watched one every night until we finished my new boxset and I had to head back to Spain. I miss all our cuddles and hot chocolate but not long til I will be home again!

I also had a new camera off my boyfriend, just a simple point and shoot but its purple so that's amazing :) and I am now the new owner of a tripod which means I can finally take outfit pictures and post them to my blog , yaaay :) 

But enough of the Christmas festive times, I don't know about you but once school/uni starts back and Christmas is over I forget the sparkles and I instantly get excited about summer, holidays and pretty floral clothes. I have a few holidays already planned this year, as apposed to the zero I had last year, and being in Spain until the end of June in the lovely hot sunny weather (not bragging or anything) I think this summer will actually feel like summer yay!

Anyway below is my festive holidays in pictures and I will be back soon to post about my lovely sale buys!

Ciao for now,

Charlotte.

*Paris*

Hey lovelies,

Yes that's right, as you've probably guessed form the title of this post, I went to Paris with my lovely friend Sian!!!!! And my oh my was it amazing.

Such a good time of the year to visit as there's Christmas lights and decorations everywhere and everyone is wrapped up embracing the cold... so magical.

Our main reason for venturing to Paris was to see Chris Brown (ahh faint). He was absolutely amazing and a moment I will never forget in my life, but whilst we were there we saw a few sights and managed to fit in a few vintage shops. The lovely Kirsti from SilentSweetheart was kind enough to give me some addresses of the vintage shops she had visited in the summer and although I wasn't as lucky as her in finding some pretty vintage items I did manage to pick up some Levi and Wrangler denim shorts at 5 euros each..... Now that's a bargain. 

I shall now stop my rambling and let the pictures do the talking as words cannot describe how beautiful Paris is.....

p.s check out silentsweetheart's blog (link above) as she has now reached 300 followers and is holding a lovely giveaway.

 Thanks for reading,

Charlotte

*I Turned 21*

Hello Lovelies :)

As you've probably guessed from the post title it was my birthday last Monday and I turned 21 :D I had the most amazing day and I was spoilt rotten!! My mother surprised me and is taking me to NEW YORK!!! Ahhh so excited. We are going next April for a few days and I cannot wait. Apart from that being the best present ever she also bought me a Pandora charm bracelet and had my friends and family to buy me charms for it :) It's so beautiful and shiny, I love it!

On top of all that my wonderful boyfriend bought me a Tiffany necklace and wow, it's so so shiny and pretty it's like every girls dream. He then treated me to a delicious meal in a restaurant called Alfreds in a town close to mine, we had such a lovely evening it really was the best birthday ever.

To celebrate I had a party in my house on the Saturday night with all my friends and family. We sang karaoke and my father and brother set off some fireworks. I was quite busy playing hostess to everyone so I didn't manage to take a photo of my outfit but my mother did take one of me by my cake but it came out a little blurry :( I've still posted it below as I promised in a previous post that I would and although it's a little blurry you can still see my outfit. I also included my outfit that I wore when my boyfriend took me out for a meal.

My birthday in photos.....

*Mallzee*

Hey, how are you all?

So I've been contacted by this amazing site called Mallzee which is basically a virtual shopping mall. They're launching their site later on this year but are offering you the chance to sign up early for a pre-launch invite plus the chance to win £100 ($155) to spend whilst shopping at Mallzee.

"How does it work? You create your own personal online shopping mall by picking your favourite stores from the 200+ already signed up. Mallzee then finds products suited to your tastes from them all, lets you chat with friends as you shop, gets their opinions and gets you wicked discounts. Plus, you earn money when anyone buys anything from your Mallzee!"

I always shop online and I end up having a million tabs open on my browser comparing different items and it gets a little confusing which is why I usually prefer to just go on one big shopping spree. Mallzee simplifies shopping online and creates a virtual mall for you and your friends to go searching through whilst tucked up in bed instead of out in the rain and the cold. They pick items suited to your taste  from the 200+ shops they already have signed up and add them to your wardrobe to try on. You can also socialise with your friends through facebook or twitter and add items to each others wardrobes that you think might suit them. Sounds amazing right? On top of all that if you buy your items through Mallzee they pay you!! 

Although we have a few months to wait to start this amazing virtual shop you can checkout their blog here.

*Black & Gold*

Hello lovelies? How is everyone?

So my birthday is slowly creeping up.. 4DAYS (not that I'm counting or anything) :D and my party is in 2 days, and being the typical girl that I am I've now decided to wear a different dress than I had planned so I have desperately been looking for new shoes to match. 

It's not hard as the dress is black. I got it in the summer but I still haven't worn it and originally planned to wear it for my birthday... then I wanted something new and now I'm back to wearing it again haha. I don't have a picture as I'm all the way in Spain and my dress is in the UK but I will post my outfit after my party :) I was looking for something black and gold, shiny or sparkly and have found some amazing shoes. I really love them all but I went with the first pair due to cost and delivery speed ( I hope they arrive :/ ) Enough of my rambling and on to the shoes... Enjoy the rest of your day :)
