Hitch hiker

Wearing all your clothes on your back. It occurred to me, once I had set my duffle bag on the platform concrete, gazed upon the end of the track to find my train and saw myself replicating some really cheesy film, when the teen runs away from home, seen wearing any old clothes and their best gear which in my case my boyfriends shirt and my faux fur coat.

Yep, that was me yesterday. A good old fashioned hot mess, as I hitch hiked my way down to my friends with a bottle of prosecco instead of food essentials, ready to hit the night life in our local town. I think I pulled off the glam look during the night, I certainly jumped from one end of the style scale.

I’m sorry for the very blurry picture that seems to appear on wordpress? But, yes I felt this outfit. Especially because I had to pin the skirt because it was too big for me! Still can’t believe I’ve lost a stone!

Outfit of the day guys! And they’re all in the sale!!!!!! From Wallis, Mango and Oasis.

Oversize shimmering floral dress from Mango, just £10! And my Wallis bag for £10 as well.

The cream small heel Oasis sandals, just £15 in the sale. I can’t wait to wear this beautiful dress multiple times. Such an incredible piece.

I love an outfit you can dress up and down.

How to repeat an outfit and get away with it

It’s our second night here in main land Spain and we are in love.
Heaven on earth
We decided to hit the town for a meal and ONLY a few drinks. But, we suddenly wound up at this bar and left 2 am with these guitarists just singing to us towards the end!

It was a good job I had my shorts on for the night

I feel better in denim shorts for a night out. Either shorts or skirt but a good pair of denim shorts always looks best with a black belt.
I coordinated black and blue together; Black is brilliant for night time outfits, and blue accessories seemed like a chic touch!

My dangly earings which are royal blue give the outfit a real elegant feel and when you work your way down you get more of an edge to the outfit with the denim shorts and belt. The shoes which are great length give the entire outfit that sexy and sophisticated look.
My day to evening outfit

If you were to go without accesories in a bright/bold colour, both outfits could look a little flat, as there isn’t enough colour in the outfit alone to draw attention.
I love the white skirt and it’s sweet shape. The metallic rings and zip at the front is daring and can take you through to the evening. But denim shorts for a night out on your holiday is my personal preference.

To get my outfit:

• Skirt and top – pretty little thing
• Shorts – H&M
• Earings – Jasper Conran

Tote bags can be more than just plain bags

Just as I was about to buy another bag for holiday, it struck me that my gorgeous interior designed tote bag was sitting at home. Practical room and brilliant compartments…but so plain!

As I turned away from the bag, I saw on one rail, gorgeous thin neck scarves and the idea just came to me.

This is my bag before…

This is my bag now…

Here is another style…

I love the yellow, cream and black colours in the scarf because it looks lovely against the red background.
Here is how I done it…

• Be really carefully when piercing through the bag with scissors.
• If you want the fabric to have a bow or be a certain length just pull the inside for the length to be shorter or if you want it longer then pull the two ends of the scarf closer to you. If your tote bag is expensive and you don’t want to poke holes through it then it’s fine to just wrap the scarf around one of the handles. That would be a pretty touch!
