Outfit 5

Hey everyone it's Bella here! I hope you all had a great summer and have got a good tan on! My summer was fab, I went to turkey for two weeks so as Emillie has done, I thought I would show you my top 5 outfits that I wore when I went out in the evenings, I hope you like them.

 
Outfit 1- this outfit was one of my faves! The skirt is from a very cheap shop in Italy, which  Emillie bought last year on holiday, but unfortunately we can't remember the name of the shop. My top is from pretty little thing, it was in the sale, it has slits in the sides and is very comfy. My black sleeveless cardigan is crochet and it from Primark, I find it can go with anything (well most things). Finally, my shoes are actually my mums and they are from Clarks. They are extremely comfy and so pretty.

Outfit 2- My second outfit was one I wanted to save until near the end of my holiday, as its a white dress and I wanted it to complement my tan. The dress is from Miss Selfridge and I love it, its one of those dresses that I will always love even if I don't wear it often. The shoes are from River Island and I bought them literally a week before we went away on holiday, I found them in the sale and it was one of those must have buys, they aren't to height either but are so comfy and pretty. I love the silver, holographic effect. The lemon clutch is one of my favourite ever accessorise! I actually love it so much. Its from New Look and again another bargain in the sale. It also came in orange. I use it all the time and was worth the buy.

Outfit 3- My top is the same pretty little thing top worn in outfit 1. My skirt is actually part of a skirt and jacket co-ord from missguided. I purchased it fro my birthday in march and I absolutely love it. I think its so pretty and I think it can easily be dressed up or dressed down. Its simple but elegant I think. The shoes worn are from tkmaxx. They are black and white, platform sandals and cross over on the feet. They are extremely comfy and I can wear them either with a skirt or dress or with jeans when its colder.

Outfit 4- this outfit is also one of my favourites and a classic holiday outfit for me. Emillie won it on an instagram competition last year and I love it because it never goes out of style and I love the reds in it, its so bright and it really stands out. My shoes are also from tkmaxx and I call them my gladiator sandals even though they aren't very gladiator, they can be worn with or without socks but I wear them with and I know many won't like that I wear socks with them especially flamingo ones as the outfit and socks are completely different patterns but hey! The socks are from new look and the shoes are unbelievably comfy I could walk in them forever.

Outfit 5- my last outfit which isn't really an outfit I must say, sooo, my bikini is from river island and I love it! I also got another bikini from river island and I wore both all holiday. They were both so comfy and good quality. They were also really well made too. As I have big boobs I find so many things so unflattering and it annoys me so much as so many shops don't make clothes to flatter you or if they do they are extremely expensive or revolting and I am not about that. So when I tried this bikini on and my other one I was hugely surprised to find that they both fitted but also to find that they were so comfy and I never felt as though I was falling out of either bikini. So honestly, I really recommend river island bikinis.

Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoyed what I wrote and I hope it helped you in some way. I also hope you like my outfits and if you have any questions or opinions leave them in the comments below. I wish you all a good week, see you next time!!

Bella

Bella's Double Denim







 
Hey everyone, it's Bella again! I really enjoyed my last post with Em so she's let me blog about this 70's double denim number that I put together! I don't usually go for double denim, but I really like the two contrasting shades of denim with the washed pale trousers which are my Topshop Mom Jeans and dark shirt that I bought in H&M in Switzerland!
 
I've been really admiring Kylie Jenner (hasn't everyone) at the moment so really this outfit was inspired by her! This is a very casual and simple outfit which I have worn with my white Birkenstock sandals and Accessories mirrored sunglasses. I really like this comfy outfit and I think it would look really good if the shirt had short sleeves, or even with a denim halter neck in the same dark shade which would look cute and make this even more summery!

Jeans- Topshop (similar here)

I hope you have enjoyed my post and I look forward to posting more!

Cute Culottes







 
Hey guys, I hope you've had been having a lovely weekend!
So this is the outfit that I wore shopping yesterday, I don't usually wear culottes unless I'm on holiday for some reason, but yesterday I decided I wanted a change from my long wide leg trousers and dresses so I decided these were the perfect item to mix it up a little.
 
These culottes are so comfy and I found them really easy to style with a simple black knitted crop top my trusty white sandals which I have lived In this summer and a very simple gold necklace. These culottes could be worn with any colour top I think as they are black and white, most colours would look good. I really like how these look, from a distance like a cute girlie midi skirt, when in actual fact they're not. These are definitely a summer must have as they are different to other garments that I own. I really like the bold palm tree print which is really on trend at the moment. I doubt Primark sell these anymore as I bought them last year but I'm sure there are similar ones out there! This is definitely my favourite outfit of the month so far, and everything is from Primark! I have added some links below to some similar items to what I am wearing!

D.I.Y Louboutin's

 
 

 

 
Happy Friday guys!!
 
So today's post is a little different to my previous ones! It is my 21st birthday in September and I really wanted some fab shoes, so I had been looking at ones online... especially admiring Christian Louboutin's infamous red soled beauties! Obviously I can't afford the real thing so I decided I would make my own for so much cheaper !
 
To begin with I shopped around for the 'perfect shoes' that will go with my birthday dress. I finally found them in the Next sale for a whole £16 from £32 (ish)!
 
I then researched the best way to paint the bottom of shoes and found that using wall paint and clear acrylic were a popular thing to use as well as a simple nail varnish and clear top coat- so I decided to use nail varnish as it would be cheaper!
 
When it came to painting the soles of my shoes, I covered the fabric around the sole with masking tape to avoid getting the paint on to the rest of the shoe. I also made sure there was no dirt on the soles before I painted them so I gave them a quick clean with soapy water which did the trick.
 
The nail varnish I used to paint the soles of these shoes was a 'Miss Sporty' red in the shade 150 (which was £1.99 a bottle I think), I got two bottles (one for each sole as the bottles are only small and need more than one layer). I then painted each sole with two coats- leaving each one to dry before I added another coat.
 
I then left them over night before adding two layers of 'Collection Top Coat' (which was about £2.99). I decided to use a clear nail varnish to keep the red on as if my nail varnish can stay on without getting chipped after working or washing up I think it can stay on the bottom of some shoes- even if it doesn't last that long!
 
Once the clear had dried my own Louboutin's were finished! I can't wait to wear this next month, and I will be doing a post on my birthday outfit- including these beauties! I hope you like this post- if so let me know and I can try and do more like this!!
 
Have a lovely weekend!

Sisters in Summer





 

 

 
 
Hey guys, I hope you're week has been good so far! Today's post is slightly different because I have got my not so little sister Bella involved! She will be writing about her outfit too! This week we are up at our Grandpa's and his garden is the perfect place for a photo shoot! As my previous posts have been just about my outfits, this was really fun too shoot so if you like this, I will do more including Bella.
 
Today I wore my trusty floral Missguided scuba trousers which are the comfiest things to wear, I have teamed them with a white Primark off the shoulder crop top, white sandals, my cute Asda sunglasses and the black handbag. I love wearing these trousers as they go with any kind of white, black or nude crop tops and they are so easy to dress up or down! I like to role the bottoms of them up for a more casual look.
 
 
Hey everyone, its Bella, so I thought I would write to you about my outfit, which I hope you all approve of. The trousers I have worn are from the wonderful Tesco and when I wear them I feel as though I am wearing pyjama's, they are that comfy. As the trousers are printed I thought I should team it up with a simple yet elegant top which is from Miss Selfridge and also is very comfy. It is off the shoulder and the material is very soft and was worth the buy. My glasses are from Accessorize and I love them. The lenses are mirrored and I love them as they go with everything. My lemon bag I brought in the New Look sale for £6.50! BARGAIN! I love it as it is funky and it brings a simple outfit to life and adds some fun. The sandals I wear with this outfit are Birkenstock style gold sandals and they are the most comfiest sandals I think I have ever worn. I brought them last year in River Island and I wear them all the time and they go with most things. I think this is a simple outfit which is made funky and fun with the accessorise and shoes.
 
 
I hope you have liked today's post, leave me a comment or email if you'd like us to do more of these double posts!! I have added links to the garment and shop lists above with either the same item or ones that are similar.
