French Connection - Fresh Look






I have always liked French Connection, however I think they had lost their way, not really knowing who they were designing for but just adding more and more money onto their price tag! 
With that said, I do think they have had a couple of strong seasons, with the help of the head designer coming from Victoria Beckham. Above is a few garments I love from their new collection. Must have item.....the leather solar pleated dress, I think i would wear this all winter!

Monochrome Slick


I wanted to do a post on some printed trousers, they are everywhere at the moment and I am very tempted. Remember the smaller the print the more flattering they will be if you have curvier, shorter legs and go for a big and bold print if you blessed with long legs! I have fallen for monochrome printed trousers by Second Female. This outfit would look amazing during the day without the jacket and you would be ready for the evening by resting this leather jacket just on your shoulders. Monochrome Sleekness.

Cruising Style


Even if you are not off on a cruise, i am loving this sophisticated look. Every holiday i pull out my trusty high waisted shorts. This year i am adding the perfect lime blouse from H&M Conscious collection and finishing off with beautiful tan leather accessories, the ultimate summer look. Simple and stylish that will work day or night.

Label Alert - Lavish Alice


I have been trying to put up images about this brand for a while but could not get any good photos, finally they have put up a website! With an edgy feel and some great prints Lavish Alice brings a bit of sports lux fashion this season. Hands down the white skirt is one of my favorites in the new arrivals along with the super cute zebra print shirt. I think this skirt would look amazing on holiday with a lime shirt and a very big statement necklace! 
My only negative criticism is that they have put sale items on their 'just arrived' section. This just annoys me in general, i want to see new, not old stock that hasn't sold!

Washed Out



I have done a lot of neon's and I wanted to post this outfit concentrating on a nude pallet. As I have dark hair I have always been drawn to light colours are I feel it shows off my hair, as it's such a contrast. So here are a few beautiful finds that are available online now! 
Tye-Dye is also huge this summer and to start off the look i found this fab maxi skirt in a grey and peach fade, i think with a tan this would look stunning. I have paired it with a loose cami as i don't like the elasticated finish on the skirt, i think this always looks better covered up! The bag, earrings and sandals are all from Aldo. The last Aldo shop i went to was in Vegas and I am so jealous I do not have one near to me back home. However thanks to the world wide web it can all be accessed at our finger tips! 
What do all think, are we loving nudes or are we all about the bright colours?!

Make A Statement



New Outfit post and it is all about this amazing printed jacket by Just Female. The top two images popped up on my Facebook news feed from the Just Female page (LINK) and I couldn't help but have a look. 
I think styling this jacket with the matching trousers looks unreal, absolutely love it, however i decided to do an outfit post on mixing up the print if you are not brave enough to wear it all together (like me.) 
I have taken the jacket as i just think i would get more wear out of something like this and styled it with, yes, simple black skinny jeans. These ones are more high waisted and i think this would work better as i would tuck in the cute blue cami from Topshop in them. To finish i have added a pop of colour with this fabulous bag from Karen Millen and simple white heeled sandals from Aldo. I have also added a chunky beaded necklace to bring texture to the outfit. What do we all think, do you love this print as much as me?
