OOTD: Jones And Jones Shannon Dress

OOTD: Jones And Jones Shannon Dress

Saturday, 7 September 2013

With the weather so warm on Thursday and knowing it was likely to be our last day of summer, I thought I better get my Jones and Jones dress out, even if it was only for a few pretty photos! I haven't had anywhere to wear this dress to yet, I think it is so cute but now I’m thinking it might have to wait until next summer as it is a very spring/summer colour. Im thinking something like a summer wedding guest outfit is perfect. Jones and Jones are my go to brand for big events like that and I actually have quite a large collection going on now! They don't fit inside my wardrobe so all of them hang on the outside.  

You guys might remember that I few months ago I was invited down to their Spitalfield's store to spend some time with the team trying on some of the new season dresses, I got to pick my favourite one and take it home, so here it is.

I love that all of the Jones and Jones dresses have the extra poofieness (Is that even a word?!) to them with the layers in the skirt. If you know me, you'll know that I love that triangle silhouette of a puffy skirt. This dress is very well made and you can feel the good quality material. If you'd like it for yourself, its currently half price in the sale!

Need to work out why some of my photos are blurry :'(

EVENT: Jones+Jones

EVENT: Jones+Jones

Wednesday, 17 July 2013

On thursday evening, I was lucky enough to be invited down to Spitalfields for a blogger event held in the Jones and Jones store. I've walked past there many times and always pop in to see whats new and I have to say, I always love whats in there. If you read my blog regularly you will know that Jones and Jones we one of my favourite brands, in fact I bought a new dress from them for absolutley no reason last week.

This was one really lovely event, it was so fun becuase the sun was shining and the shop was still open to the public so it was all hussely and bustley and you could get to see all the cutsomers choosing out dresses. The Jones and Jones girls were great and put a lovely spread of champagne with strawberrys, nibbely snacks and amzing scones which were all handmade by All Scone. 

I spent the evening with my lovely blogger friend Millie from sheheartsthehighstreet (all of the good photos are hers as I didnt realise I was going until last minute and didnt have my camera on me) we picked out all of our favourite dresses and spent forever trying on each one and taking lots of photos as we both ratteled it down to 2 dresses. Both of us were torn between two dreses and I thinkthe whole store knew about it! I ended up getting a green version of the dress I got last week, because I love the shape of it so much, so why not get a summer colour as well as a winter one?! (You can find it online here.) and Millie ended up getting the totally out of her comfort zone but looks amazing on Roxy Dress (which you can find here)

HAUL: First Week Of July

HAUL: First Week Of July

Thursday, 4 July 2013

Just wanted to check in with you guys and show you all the lovely stuff that I've bought and been given over the last week. Today, Me and Andrew finally got a chance to go shopping so we popped down the lakeside for the morning and retuned to my house to find the camera crew outside filming TOWIE haha. Did you see my house in the last epidsode? If you look really closely you can see my bathroom window and there were also two whole trees from my driveway in clear view, my claim to fame you know haha.

Anyway, today I spent most of my money on Andrew buying him clothes for his birthday which was in January, we just haven't had time to buy his presents yet. I got him three pairs of shorts for our holiday next month so that's a start!

If you follow my Twitter and instagram, you will know that on Tuesday night, he turned up at my house with a bunch of flowers and a Topshop gift card, which was a lovely suprise, so I spent that today and am so pleased with what I got!

 Firstly I got a brigth green cami which is super cute and makes a change in shape from my normal crops. It's going to be lovely for those hot days when you want somthing that isnt too clingly.

Next up, I got the biggest bargain ever! It's beautiful black and white Jones and Jones dress for £10 in the sale. Amazing, I'm so pleased with that! It's nice to buy a classy dress once in a while.

After that we popped into primark for some flip flops, they're always so comfortable and at £1.50 each it would be rude not to! I also love that they have glitter in them. Sparkle sparkle.

That's all i picked up today but i also wanted to show you a few bloggery bits. Im not going to give too much away for the jujus and sunglasses are a part of a holiday project ive got going on, which I will tell you all about very soon!

Also this body cream I picked up at an event during the week and it smells so good, I've always loved the smell of oranges and this has a super strong scent! It's from Sranrom.

 

Full blog posts to come on everything but I thought I'd just show you what I've been doing and spending my money on.

Do you guys enjoy these kind of haul blog posts? I hope so, I've done a few now and was just wondering what you think of them! 

Let me know!

ENTRY: A Day At The Races

ENTRY: A Day At The Races

Friday, 21 June 2013

Here is my entry to a competition being held over at Casino Choice to style an outfit for the races!

I don't know much about Ascot and all the races stuff but I do know it's quite typical to wear somthing big and crazy in your hair -  normally like a hat or a spray but I liked the flower crown better and this competition is about wearing what you love. I've always wanted a whole lotta rosie crown from Crown and Glory so that's what I've chosen.  I'd have my hair up at the back with little curly bits around my face, that way you'll also be able to see there super classy drop earrings.

The sunglasses arn't a massive part of the outfit (but one of my favourites) and will probably spend most of the day inside my pretty little clutch, we will be in England after all, but if the sun does decide to make an appearance, at least I will be able to whip out the coolest sunglasses around! I've seen a few people wearing them and love how in photos it looks like you've added the sunglasses with a cartoon app or somthing. Soo cool! These are somthing that would be perfect for all summer, not just the races.

I was very careful with the shoes, as much as I wanted to add in a cute pair of beige Zara strappy sandals, wedges would be a lot more practical for sepending the day in a field and they're still super cute. The peep toe also gives a great opportunity to add a little bit of the blue colour to the bottom of the outfit too with Barry M on your fingers and toes.  The dress is from Jones+Jones, a favourite of mine for event dresses, they look amazing and always make me feel great, I love the puffy skirt and the pretty blue colour!

Shoes £24.95// Dress £65// Nails £2.99// Crown £18// Clutch £20// Earrings £18// Sunglasses £25
