Get The Look : Out on the Town Outfits

Back again with another get the look post as I got some messages from readers who really enjoyed it and were interested in a ‘night out’ version. So that’s exactly what I’m going to do! Whether you are going for a fancy dinner or a night out with the girls then I’ve got you covered.

The first outfit is a super cute clubbing outfit I’d say you can dress it up or down with heels or your favourite pair of trainers. The top is what I like to call a milk maid style due to its puffy sleeves and corset detailing. I purchased this top from pretty little thing in a size 6 and I couldn’t of been happier with how it looked on. It’s a dupe for one of the more expensive house of CB tops. With it being a white shade it’s easy to pair with anything so you could wear it with jeans or as I’ve done a skirt. I also bought my mini skirt from Pretty Little thing in a size 8 and I definitely think that this skirt is true to size because of the lace detailing up the sides. Which btw can become a bit challenging on a night out so make sure you’ve got your bestie on set to help fix it! The snake skin detailing of the skirt really brings together the outfit and makes it a showstopper.

Another outfit to help turn heads at the dinner table and have your date begging for another are these beautiful vinyl black trousers which I purchased from Oh Polly in a size 8. They help accentuate all of your curves and hold you in at the right places. I paired them with a stunning blue silk tie crop top which I also got from Oh Polly in a size 8. This is the statement piece of the outfit it’s definitely a head turner! I wore this with a pair of pink River Island court heels in a size 5 (which make me feel like legally blonde!!) alongside a litre pink fluffy bag to add some fun and textures to the outfit.

Boujee on a Budget : Raver Edition

Are you feeling pretty poor but wanna dance the night away? then I’ve got a few tips for you! Recently I attended a night out in Sub Club called ‘Trance Classics’. Which by the title I knew there was going to be a captivating night on the cards. I had packed soooo many outfits but still didn’t feel any of them were the right vibe for the event. One which was a snake pint crop top and another was a checker print skirt (not what i was feeling that night)

I then took a trip to Primark in hopes to find something impressing and rave-like. After wandering past all of the winter clothes and all of the funky accessories I managed to bag myself a whole outfit minus the shoes for £13. I toddled over to the men’s section where I found a long black Scarface tee with a picture of Al Pacino on the front which I got in a size large for an over sized look and this retailed for £8. I thought it was the  perfect fit for the style I was going for (for reference I’m usually a women’s size 6 or 8). I then paired this with a pair of size XS black cycling shorts which I bought for £2. To hold the look together and accentuate my waist I found a Neon Green/Yellow seatbelt belt for £3. The belt was a way for me to add colour to the outfit and make it POP. I was amazed when i got to the counter and the cashier told me the outfit was less than £20.

I’d recommend Primark to anyone who is on a budget and needs to put together a quick outfit. I got so many compliments on this outfit and felt so comfortable the whole night.

Thanks For Reading.

Get the look: Casual Outfit Ideas

One of my daily struggles is getting out of bed for university in the morning but if I know there is a lovely outfit waiting for me to slip it on, it makes me feel a whole lot more motivated.

One of my favourite go to outfits for when I want to look put together easily is made up of my light washed straight leg jeans from Topshop in a size 6. These look very similar to the mom jeans however due to the shape of my body a size 8 in mom jeans are too big but a size 6 are to small. So I think ill stick to the Straight leg jeans! Along with my cropped neon green long sleeved turtleneck top from top shop in a size 8. This top is a perfect statement piece to the outfits and complements the denim jeans. This look paired with my gold and white Nike TN’s and either a cropped jacket or a long blazer type coat is fab for a quick and edgy look.

Neon is a vibe with denim

Another speedy and stylish look is wearing a long turtleneck body suit or top which is a basic colour like black or white. I wear a white one I got from Pretty Little Thing in a size 8. With this I’d wear my skinny ripped Jamie jeans from top shop in a size 8 with an over sized Tee. To add some character to the outfit I recommend wearing a tee which is themed or has a cool print\logo on it to really make that the statement piece! I’d then top off the look with my caramel coloured Nike Air Force.

I hope these outfit ideas have helped spice up your everyday looks like I try my best to.

Oh Polly or Oh No? : A review

Oh Polly is an online fashion store famous for its satin dresses and stunning models. The brand offers a variety of goods such as swimwear, dresses, Two piece sets and many more.

I recently purchased the ‘ AHEAD OF THE CURVE, Underwired Satin Mini Dress in Neon Green’. I got this dress in a size 8 and its very much true to size. With the material of the dress being satin its very figure hugging and not see through what so ever. It also has a curved cup bust which is underwired, this helps enhance what your mamma gave ya! I paired this dress with some strappy nude heels and think its perfect for a night out on the town.

Craving a vinyl dress,  I purchased the ‘BUCKLE UP, Plunge Halter Neck Vinyl Mini Dress in Navy’. This dress features a deep plunging neckline, adjustable halterneck strap and is extremely figure hugging. I was worried that the dress may feel uncomfortable on however it has a soft interior lining which makes it perfect for dancing all night long! I got this dress in a size 8 although because of the material if you are between sizes or  then I’d recommend sizing up on their vinyl items. I really love this dress you will definitely be the talk of the town!

If you want to be an ice queen in suede this winter then I’ve got the outfit for you! ‘TIME 2 BUCKLE DOWN BELTED SUEDE TWO PIECE SET IN PASTEL BLUE’ from Oh Polly is a stunning fit on the body with both the top and skirt featuring an ornate gold belt which can be adjusted to create dramatic curves. I purchased a size 8 and it fits perfectly. The piece comes with a bralette-style crop top and high wasted mini skirt. This paired with a big white fluffy coat in these winter months is A LOOK!
