Hello lovelies! This is a little summery post before I head off to Thailand tomorrow! (Soooo excited!) So I'll be a little quiet for a week or so! I was asked by the lovely people at Hobbs to style up one of their occasion wear dresses and fell completely in love at first sight with this gorgeous crochet NW3 lace circle dress. It's so pretty and delicate with it's geometric cutwork circles and nude/pink underlay, it's perfect to dress up for a wedding or summer event! It has a gorgeous fit too, coming in at the waist and pleating gently out through the skirt to sit flatteringly over your hips - a real plus if like me you're a little self-concious of that area! I have to say though one of my favourite parts of this dress is that back! How cute is the lace bat wing on it? It almost lends itself  to a matching crop and skirt combo which I love! 

I decided to team this pretty number with my chunky rose-gold watch from Next and statement clutch from Miss Selfridge, adding a gentle pop of colour to the outfit with turquoise accents. I recently got my nails done with a summer bright, blue shellac at my favourite local salon - Earl's & Co. in Cheltenham, if you're ever near by make sure you pop in! - which I think sets off the colour too! For my summer event look I opted for keeping my shoes nude, however I really think if you wanted to add some sky-scraper coloured numbers that would really work too! 

What do you all think of the look?

A week in Pictures

Unfortunately I haven't had much time to do a full post recently but here is a very random selection of photos I've taken over the past week or so!  I have been really getting to grips with bargain shopping so a few of the snaps are showing some of my high street steals! I've been loving the odd bits and bobs in Primark at the moment, such as the jewellery, it's so good for a cheap fashion fix! 
The cake featured is my housemate's super colourful birthday cake, unfortunately I can't claim I made it, but I wish I could! It was so fun and sparkly and not to mention delicious :) Also, on that note, check out the crochet sparkle ankle socks from Urban Outfitters we're all a bit smitten with them here in Manc!
