Style B4 Fashion Haul

Not too long ago, I kindly got sent some lovely pieces of jewellery by the online boutique Style B4 Fashion. They are a up and coming online store that I am sure will go far with their lovely pieces.
I have only really got into the jewellery 'hype' this year. If you know me, you will know that I don't go anywhere without my skull rings on (accept work, damn uniform policies). I am a sucker for rings and I do love a good long necklace. I was extremely pleased when Style B4 Fashion sent me pieces that I know I will get plenty of wear out of.



1. Eiffel Tower Necklace (*)



Style B4 Fashion website found here

When I first went on the Style B4 Fashion website, the first thing that attracted me was the Paris themed pieces. Having been to Paris a few times myself, I do love the City. I love this necklace because it has a long chain and I am one of these people that can't be dealing with the time and awkwardness it takes to do up a short chain; I'm just lazy and like throwing necklaces over my head. I really like the detail and care it has taken to create this necklace. It it is in good condition and looks more than the asking price. 

2. Question Mark Ring (*)



Question Mark Ring (link here) - £3.50

As most of you know, I love rings. I love rings that are unusual and are different. This ring is a question mark ring and fits perfectly. The colour is gold, but can also be purchased in silver and is a great price at £3.50. This ring fits my personality well I feel as I feel that I am the type of person that doesn't even know what they're doing half the time, so this ring is perfect for me!

3. Moustache Ring (*)

Again, this is a very unusual ring and I like that. This ring is such a statement piece that I think this ring worn without any other rings on the hand will look good. For some reason, the moustache print has been quite big over the last few years. I haven't joined that trend but I do like this ring; I especially like the gold trim as it makes the ring stand out. Also, I love double finger rings!

4. Eiffel Tower Ring (*)

If I had to pick a favourite piece, this would be it.Not only because I love Paris but the rose gold colouring is beautiful and the detailing of the ring is amazing. Again, this product definitely definitely looks more than the asking price of £3.50! This ring is such a statement ring, that I think this will look eye catching enough to be worn on its own without any other rings on the hand. 

5. Eiffel Tower Gold Earrings (*)

I haven't got my ears pierced but I so wish I did after seeing these earrings! Again, they are of amazing detail and a gorgeous rose gold tinted colour. I think they would look adorable when worn! They are in good condition and look more than the asking price. They would great worn on a night out as I imagine they are quite sparkly and pretty!  

Thanks again to the lovely team at Style B4 Fashion for sending me these lovely pieces, expect to see these in future posts. 
Style B4 Fashion also have a Spring Sale going on at the moment with 10% off everything, just use discount code 'EASTER10'.

That 70's vibe








1. Glitter long sleeved turtle neck top - E-bay
2. Purple Mom Jeans (website here)
3. Black belt (website here)
4. Brown Desert Shoes - E-bay

This outfit reminds me of something from the 70's hence the title. I am wearing a glitter turtle neck which I purchased from E-bay in October 2013 and it is one of my favourite tops and as most of you know, I love a turtleneck. I am wearing purple mom jeans purchased from Wanderland Boutique in October 2013 also. I paired this outfit with some brown desert boots I bought from E-bay three years ago. And it was nice of my Alfie to join me at the end!

Until next time,

(Late) March Haul

I thought I would share with you what I have purchased over the last month. Enjoy!

1. American Apparel 

1. Colour Bock Stretch Bull Denim High Waist Cuff Shorts (link here) - £54.00

I have had my eye on these shorts since last Summer but didn't want to pay £54.00 for them, so it was a miracle when I found a pair on E - Bay! I was a little apprehensive about these shorts as I heard they are a little tight and that it is probably best to purchase a size up but I went with my normal size and if anything, they are too big. These are super soft and definitely worth the money. These shorts are definitely going to be a main staple in my wardrobe this SS14. 

2. Missguided

1. Lilih Sweatshirt in Pastels (link here) - £19.99

Before purchasing this jumper, I had longed for a pastel jumper, so you can imagine my delight when I saw this on the Missguided website. My funds were relatively low at the time, but luckily Missguided were offering free postage for a limited time. I adore this jumper. It is super soft and very comfortable, and I love the different pastel shades. I may wear this jumper with the American Apparel shorts. 

3. Topshop

1. HYDRATE Two Part Pool Sliders (link here) - £22.00

I had been wishing for a pair of black sandals for a very long time so I was ecstatic when I saw these on the Topshop website. At only £22.00, I thought that was pretty good for Topshop. These are really comfortable and the black and gold go really well together. Definitely going to be big in my wardrobe this Summer. 

2. Moto Gingham Print Joni Jeans (link here) - £38.00 

As many of you may know, I am adoring the Gingham trend this season, as well as the pastels. Joni jeans have made me turn my back on any other jeans as these are the perfect jeans for me. High waisted and a very flattering fit. I also receive many compliments on these jeans; well worth the money. 


3. MOTO Black Joni Jeans (link here) - £36.00

Another pair of Joni Jeans, I told you that I loved them! Two years ago, I had purchased a pair of black Leigh Jeans from Topshop and I had never been happy with the rise but I put up with it. Until I saw the Joni Jeans. Again, these are high waisted and flattering. The bottoms are a little long for me and are a Petite size, so I have to roll them up, but I would do this anyway. Reasonable price. 

4. (Similar) Glamorous Colour Pop Daisy Shift Dress (link here) - £26.00 

The Topshop dress was a sell out pretty quickly, however, I have found a similar dress from Glamorous. You will probably be able to purchase the Topshop Daisy print dress via E-bay. The Topshop dress has a lovely Gingham print with a daisy print throughout. I love this dress!

4. Boohoo

1. Orla Leather Look Metallic Runner Shorts (link here) - £15.00 

These Boohoo shorts are  little bit out of my comfort zone but I loved them when I first saw them and just had to purchase them. They are true to size, yet have a very flattering fit. They are metallic which is another trend I am loving. I love how they are just easy to slip on and very sports luxe, which again, is out of my comfort zone but I am loving it so far. These shorts are in the sale at the moment at only £15.00 but they are selling out fast!

2. Erika Dogtooth Woven Checked Pelmet Mini Skirt (link here) - £15.00

I am still loving the check trend, but I am venturing with different colours instead of wearing tartan pieces. This skirt is going to be perfect for the Summer and will look great with pastel pieces. I would recommend getting a size up as the skirt is quite big on me but still wearable. Reasonable price at £15.00. 

3. Megan Gingham Boxy Long Sleeve Shirt (link here) - £16.00 

I just had to purchase this shirt, as yes, it is Gingham. I was actually a little apprehensive about purchasing this as it is a boxy shape and box shape shirts that I have purchased in the past have been too small or too tight on me, but this shirt is the best one I have purchased so far. I think this shirt would look good with the checked skirt if I fancied a clash of the prints day haha! The shirt is long sleeved, but I personally think the shirt looks better with the sleeves rolled up, Great price at £16.00. 

4. Tianna Box Pleat Colour Pop Skater Skirt (link here) - £10.00

I had wanted a pink skater skirt for a while and it was just my luck that I found this beauty on Boohoo. Definitely recommend for this to be purchased as it goes with anything and is on trend. What a bargain it is at £10?! Boohoo never fails to impress. 

5. Primark

1. White Turtleneck Cropped Jumper with Short Sleeves - (Bought on E-bay)
(Similar) Somedays Lovin Roll Neck Jumper in Fluffy Knit (link here) - £31.00

Unfortunately, the top featured in the picture was purchased on E-bay and Primark do not have an online store, (why not?! :( ) However, I have found an alternative via the ASOS website which is a jumper from Somedays which is a little pricier at £31.00 but it is in the sale. I do not shop at Primark that often as I do not have a Primark store in my area, but I just had to purchase this turtleneck fluffy crop, as I'm sure most of you know that I love turtlenecks and fluffy jumpers. This top is also great for the Summer as it is cropped and short sleeved. There are also a variety of other colours to choose from. 

6. ASOS

1. T - Shirt with Deja Vu Print (link here) - £14.00

I do love a good slogan tee. They are just great for tucking into a pair of high waisted shorts or trousers for a relaxed look. This tee from ASOS was very sought after as it sold out within days and luckily, it came back in stock a few days ago, so purchase yours as soon as possible! I love this tee as Deja Vu used to be my favourite word when I was very small. (Please don't ask me why) Haha! It's also a bargain at only £14.00!

7. Lazy Oaf

1. Let It Roll T - Shirt (link here) - £40.00

Again, another slogan tee but this is a cropped version. You may have also seen this featured in an outfit post which can be found here. I saw this tee on another blogger about a month ago and knew I had to get my hands on it but I wasn't too sure on paying £40.00 on it, however, I thought I would search for it on E-bay and there it was! Luckily, I won it, (ovbiously). I love the tartan sleeves and the design. It is a perfect fit and looks great with high waisted bottoms. If you do not want to pay £40, I suggest looking on E-bay!. 

8. Persunmall

1. British Style Checked Jacket (link here) - £24.47

This bomber jacket is actually from Zara but as it is sold out I have managed to find a bomber jacket which is virtually the same if you wanted to purchase a tartan bomber. Persunmall basically sell clothes which may be at a high price in UK stores but Persunmall sell these clothes at a lower price. I haven't completely left the tartan world yet as I still love my bomber jacket as it is versatile and great for layering. If you wanted to purchase this, I would recommend getting a couple of sizes up. My jacket is a size large and my size is between 8-12 in jackets. 

9. E - bay

1. (Similar) New Look Belted Mom Shorts (link here) - £19.99

I have purchased a pair of Black Levi Shorts from E - bay, however, I have found a great alternative pair from New Look for you. They are Mom shorts which comes with a belt. I am not keen on shorts which expose the bum, so I always opt for mom style shorts. I think these black shorts would look great with the tees from Lazy Oaf and ASOS.

2. Light Blue Blazer (link here) - £3.99

I had been looking for a pastel blue blazer for a while and this blazer was only £3.99! I had to wait about 2-3 weeks for it to arrive as it is from Hong Kong but it was totally worth it. Such a great value for money and it looks great paired with other pastels. You can view my outfit post on it here 

That is all my purchases for March. I feel I didn't buy as much in March, even though it looks plenty haha. 

Until next time,

Born in the 90's









1. (Similar) Persunmall Tartan Bomber Jacket (link here) - £24.47 
2. Daisy Street Aharon Cropped Boxy Mesh Tee in Pink (link here) - £11.99
3. (Similar) New Look Light Blue Acid Wash Denim Skinny Dungarees (link here) - £29.99 
4. Bass Weejuns Kiltie Tassel Loafer Black (link here) - £59.11

Today was the first day that I got the chance to wear my own clothes for a while as I have recently started a new job which includes wearing a uniform. The uniform isn't the best, so it felt good to finally wear my own clothes again! In this post, I look a cross between a toddler and a person sent from the 90's. But I don't care as I these dungarees are the comfiest things ever. I have owned these dungarees since last Summer and I lived in them last year. These dungarees are vintage dungarees from Gap but I have added a similar pair which is listed above. The pair that I am wearing is an acid wash colour and I love them as I haven't seen a pair of dungarees like them yet. I tied the pastel trend in with this outfit as I wore the Daisy Street fishnet mesh t-shirt which I love and at £11.99 it is a bargain! I love the rolled up sleeves and the design. And I am wearing my Bass Weejuns loafers on my feet which gives this look a chic feel. 

Until next time,

Yellow Mellow










1. Light Blue Blazer (link here) - £3.99
2. (Similar) New Look Black Gingham Contrast Sleeve T - Shirt (link here) - £14.99
3. Boohoo Tianna Box Pleat Colour Pop Skater Skirt (link here) - £10.00
4. Daisy Street Kaylin Patent Cut - Out T - Bar Shoes in Yellow (link here) - £14.99

I am absolutely loving my new yellow T - bar shoes from Daisy Street, very SS14. Firstly, what a bargain the light blue blazer is at £3.99?! I bought it from an online E-bay store from China. It did take a while to get here, but it was so worth it. I am wearing my Topshop Gingham T-shirt. Unfortunately, it has sold out online, however, I managed to find an alternative from New Look which is very similar. I feel the Gingham Print breaks up the pastel colours. I wore the Tianna Pop Skater Skirt and I was dying for a pinky coloured shade and this came in store a few weeks ago and I just had to snap it up. The shoes will be featured in many of my outfits throughout SS14 I'm sure!

Until next time,
