Tropical Summer...

I bought this fabulous tropical print shirt last year from eBay, I spotted and absolutely loved that it was covered in watermelon and party umbrellas! It was an absolute bargain, the shirt is very long I originally considered turning it in to a co ord cutting it in half but I never got round to this so for now I'll wear it as a cover up kimono type shirt. 

I bought a couple of these fab fringe vests in Primarks sale last year, I've got a pink and this cream one but there were so many different colours available!

The sunglasses were bought from H&M and I love the palm tree detailing they go so perfectly with this shirt as do the chains also bought from Primark. They are two separate chains but I think they look fab worn together with one slightly shorter than the other.

Suede Fringe and Flares...

I absolutely love a bargain like anyone else, so I absolutely love Vintage Kilo sales. I regularly go to the Blue Rinse Kilo sales in Manchester but when there was one in my home town I had to go! This one was much larger than the usual ones I go to and this meant there was so much selection I was in my element. I picked up so many fabulous bargains and this jacket was certainly one of them. 

I've always wanted a fringed suede jacket so when I found this gem I had to have it, its absolutely beautiful it has aztec print details along the back as well as the fabulous fringing details. It was an absolute bargain to everything was £15 a kilo so this cost me between £15-20 but with the amount of stuff I got for £70 it seems even less than that! I can't wait to wear it all summer long!

I've styled it with these fab tile print flares bought from Missguided last year I love this style and the colours in these are muted pastels which are great for summer and a simple lace floral top.

Festival Flamingos...

I actually can't believe how quickly time has been flying by, it seems only two minutes ago that we impulsively booked flights to Germany to go to Rock Am Ring and now I'll be going a week on Thursday! I feel so unprepared! 

Festival season is arriving and the month of June is going to be very busy, kicking off these events next weekend is Kasabian in Leicester I'm so so excited. This is why this outfit post is particularly festivally, I've previously mentioned how I am in the process of sorting my wardrobe and this has meant I've been finding all sorts buried at the bottom! 

I love the Flamingo print in these shorts, I have got a matching top for them but I love how well the fringe top goes with the colours within the print. I've styled the outfit with my white lace kimono just to slightly neutralise the brightness of the pink! 

The gorgeous floral crown is by Amelia Jane London I was very kindly gifted this a couple of years a go and it still comes out every festival season.

Sequin Fringing...

I am a massive fan of fringing and sequins in case you hadn't noticed! I spotted this fab poncho in a charity shop last year and it combined the two so was absolutely perfect it was super cheap too so I snapped it up. Admittedly it got lost in the midst of jam packed wardrobe so I completely forgot about it as well as not being entirely sure on how to style it.

I love wearing it as an off the shoulder top its so floaty and I can't wait to crack it out at a festival later in the year. 

I've styled it with a pair of floral Motel hot pant shorts to add a little bit of colour in to the outfit and make it less all black! I love the print on these shorts, it is so perfect for summer. 

I am also wearing a silver detailed hair chain which I bought from Primark last year, these things instantly make an outfit and I absolutely love them, I'm always looking for more to add to the collection! Again also styled with a pair of circle lenses from Primark this time with a brown frame and mirrored lenses I absolutely love this style of frame.

Summertime Crochet...

Finally, the sun is shining and at the weekend too! I absolutely love this warmer weather and it is definitely helping me cope with having a few sensible weekends before festival season properly kicks off. The sun means that my lovely pasty legs are out more and more, so it's that time of year for the St Tropez shower tan to come out again I only used it today but I think it's made a difference already (or maybe it's the light!). This stuff is fab you put in on in the shower leave it for 3 minutes and then simply wash off it's quite pricey but well worth it and I think this year they've bought it out new shades too! 

I absolutely love crochet dresses, I'm still getting over the fact I didn't get my hands on the H&M Coachella dress but I have plenty stashed in my wardrobe to make up for it! This white crochet number was from Miss Selfridge last year, I wore it at Glastonbury with a faux suede tassel waistcoat. I love wearing white in summer and this dress is no exception to that, its a beautiful floral crochet which I've styled with silver accessories and my new fab pastel pink sunglasses again like most of my sunglasses these are from Primark they are fabulous. Primark always have a fabulous selection of sunglasses and I must have a collection of 40 pairs plus by now (it's become a bit of an addiction)!

I've also covered up for when the sun goes down with this gorgeous maxi kimono from one of my favourite brands Kiss The Sky,  I love the pastel shades within the print and how floaty the kimono is, I just want to be at a festival now!
