OOTD: Summer Wedding Guest

This past weekend I got together with my family for my cousin's wedding. I've never written a post like this before but I got a lot of compliments on my dress on the day so thought I'd show you what I wore. 

My dress is from Missguided and I paired it with this cute little bowler bag that's a much more muted coral than it appears on the website. I opted for a nude heel and these from Dorothy Perkins were perfectly comfortable to see me from day-to-night.

Do you have any weddings to attend this summer? Or are you planning your own?

Style Inspiration: Skorts

With spring on the horizon we can finally think about pretty pastels, wearing shorts without tights and not having to take numerous layers out with us only to have to strip them all off when we get to our over heated indoor destination.

I always choose my outfits by first selecting a base colour and another to compliment it to form the base. As I can't pull off too much pastel I always opt to pair them with black garments and this flowing lilac cami sits beautifully with the structured skorts. 

This floral necklace keeps the outfit on trend for spring whilst the platform boots give the outfit an edge I always aim for. Overly feminine outfits just aren't me and I'm always pairing pretty dresses with leather jackets to tone it down. I'm in love with lunch style bags, at the minute I only own one but I'll be hopefully adding to my collection soon. This ivory one is perfect to go with most outfits.

I'd keep my make up natural, just adding a set of lashes and eye liner for definition. I'd tie the look together with a pink lipstick that lies somewhere between a natural and pastel tone. This one from Topshop seems perfect but I've never tried their lipsticks so may have to investigate :)

Have you got any outfit posts featuring skorts? I'd love to see them. How excited are you for spring? I cannot wait!
