"Finally got paid now I need shade and a vacay..."

Hey dolls, so this is my holiday wardrobe so to speak I didn't get all my outfits photographed, my bad enjoying the holiday too much! But I tried my best!

When I was holiday shopping I wanted bright fun colours and am easy breezy look, not too much fuss going on so I could just throw it on and stroll to the beach. I really wanted a tropical pattern trouser, they had quite a selection in primark which surprised me, so check it out. 

top: h&m

trousers: primark

Cut ouuuuts, which I said I was in love with obvy inspired this look I call it a 'diy' cut out because by tying the top I'm showing a little bit of skin and the high waisted skirt keeps it classy!

skirt: primark

A lot of sheer material was packed and worn! Perfect cover up whilst staying cool in the heat! Also I finally got my dip hem skirt! I love it, it instantly puts a bit of glamour in an outfit!

necklace: topshop

skirt: h&m

I love all sorts of aztec and tribal prints, river island killed it with this dress adding a coloured fringe and slits down the side!

maxi: river island

For evening and dinner I wanted to keep it simple but still dressy, more accessories and layering was used.

dress: topshop

wrap: new look

body chain: topshop

For me cover ups were the thing! lol I had so many! sheer ones, cut out ones etc...

The thing I wish I had more of was maxi skirts, its so easy to put together an outfit based around a maxi!

That vacay was needed! It was fun, relaxing and it makes me want to succeed at what ever I do in the future more so I can afford MORE holidays!!!! And explore the world as whole...

Overall it was such a great trip! Cape Verde is stunning, and the people are beautiful too I would, no I will defo go back! :)

Refresh

So it has been a whiiiile I'm back from holiday and have been for a while but I have been going through some serious post-vacay depression. After leaving my life for a week I realised the full picture of everything I need to sort out in my life, it all dawned on me and it was scary...

But God does not give us any we cannot handle, and his time is best so with that being said I'm currently writing a list call it a life plan if you will, of things, projects, events that I need to organise, do and attend. I work best with lists I'm an old school organisation freak who has to write everything down , so why I have not done this earlier the mind wonders! Also this coud be why so much has piled up on me at the same time!

That was just a quick update there are a lot of things that I'm planning, and the blog post on holiday outfits will be up soon! x

Countdown

Hi Dolls!

So I have been a little distant from my blog lately as preparations for my holiday *booty shakes*  and just sorting out my life in general has taken over! But no fear I will be taking daily outfit pics on holiday and I'll be sure to get them to you! My inspiration for my holiday looks... the sun! everything I have bought and plan to wear is light and breezy with colours everywhere :) there is no definite style with me, so as always the looks from day to day will be varied.

The one thing that I knew I would have trouble with whilst holiday shopping is swim wear... as most ladies know you may be a "size 10" but on a bikini top you end up being a size 14... sigh! My advice is to shop for bikinis EARLY especially during sales there is no mad rush to find your size and no one else is really looking for swim wear during sales so the choice is all yours! Even if you are not planning a holiday! All of my bikinis were bought on sale before I even knew I was going anywhere!? Everybody thought I was mad lol there is sense in my madness! I love freya and seafolly, they compliment everybody shape with one pieces and bikinis. In terms of cuts, I loooooove halter necks on myself personally and a high waist bikini bottom looks great on most shapes.


The high waist...

LOOOVE the bottoms and the cut out detail on the side, right on trend.

The colour...

I'm loving seafolly's new collection of vibrant colours in their swimwear! This shade of orange would look gorge on tanned holiday skin!

The halter neck...

This is great for all my ladies with a bust! I absolutely love halter necks and freya swim wear gives great support. As you can guess majority of my bikinis are halter necks!

The one piece...

Not every one is a victoria secret model and has the confidence to dash out on a beach in a string bikini... the one piece is coming back with a bang! Still just as sexy as a bikini with a hint of classiness the one piece looks gorgeous on every shape and size! Im loving the play on a halter neck and the high waist band! Also the print is beautiful.

The cover up

A chic way to cover up your bikini and not melt under the heat, I'm loving this sheer kaftan style dress! Perfect to throw on during a holiday...

river island

I just noticed it looks like I have a thing for orange it actually used to be my fav colour when I was younger, but none of my swimwear is orange!? go figure... lol

A week in the sun is just what I need right now! The countdown has officially begun!
