Prep Princess




































 Blazer £25 Bershka | Denim shirt £10 Primark | Jeans 6 euros Bershka | Keys necklace £5 H&M | Sunglasses £6.99 H&M | Bag Louis Vuitton | Loafers Gucci sale


Location-Marble Arch.
I bought the blazer for my birthday in April, and I think it's one of my favourite blazers now! There was a similar one I missed out on from H&M years ago-and I still regret not buying to this day! 
Well I have this one now, and I am planning on adding gold buttons to it. I have also added a vintage chanel earring to the lapel (see it Here)

This is a typical go-to outfit for me....blazer, skinny jeans and comfortable flats (especally when I'm shopping or at work) And I'm a big fan of the "preppy" look :-)

I'll admit I never really wear white or cream jeans back here in the UK, I just fear by the end of the day they will get wrecked (London is pretty dirty lol) But I think I will start because I love the way it looks! especially with this jacket.

Marble Arch/Oxford Street is definitely one of my favourite places to shop it has so much to offer!...but it's also very busy-especially on the weekend. It really heightens my anxiety, but its such a great place to shoot outfits. Especially where I found that door in the first picture, the stripes went well with my outfit! lol

Flamingos in bloom-the chelsea flower show




























 











 
 Dress £14.99 H&M | Necklace £10 River Island | Shell clutch around £30 Accessorize | Sunglasses £4 Tiger | Cardigan £5 Primark | Shoes £565 Saint Laurent


The Chelsea Flower Show has been held in the grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, London every year since 1913. It is organised by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) which was founded in 1804. Every year the RHS incorporate many themes into the show, and this year the theme was based on Alice in Wonderland. Being as it is such a prestegious event, naturally the Queen (as well as other members of the Royal family) was in attendance.

Being a princess myself-I also should have been in attendance....but I was busy shopping unfortunately! lol

Anyway!...I bought this dress in the sale a couple of years ago and had never worn it as I didn't have an occasion-but at that price I couldn't leave it! It is such a pretty and feminine dress, and the way it moves is so flattering :-)
I was going to wear it with my new Zara heels to compliment the waistband, but I changed my mind and went for my gold Tributes to compliment the shell clutch.


I noticed an elaborate display outside Browns (see pics below) when I got off my bus on Sloane Street, and I was so excited! my princess carriage had magically turned up-but alas I wasn't properly dressed. So I decided to come back two days later wearing my H&M dress, and when I turned up.....It had literally vanished! (rather, the store took it down)
And then I noticed the two massive pink beauties, standing tall and proud outside the Kate Spade store also in Sloane Square (situated on the corner of Symons Street and Pavilion Road in the Cadogan estate), and I'm glad I did!  I actually think my dress and the flamingos actually compliment each other more than my carriage would have!

Moral of the story: Sometimes things aren't suppose to work out the way you want them to....because something even better is waiting for you literally around the corner! ;-)

The Royal Mint


 













































Mint blouse £9 Primark | High waisted Jeans £13 Primark | Jacket £17 Topshop found on ebay (also seen here) | Boots £49 Aldo | Sunglasses £6.99 H&M | Bag Louis Vuitton 'Le Fabuleux' | Necklace £18 Aldo | Gold cuff £3 Primark | Bracelets Forever 21 and Chanel


It was a grey day in London (what's new!) so maybe that was why I was feeling the grey jeans on the day, but I must say I love the way they look with the mint blouse, it added a little bit of spring to a gloomy day. The necklace is one of my faves! I wear it back to front because the other side is actually cream enamel. It is so unique-and I am really into interesting looking pieces of jewellery. The bag and shoes are a match made in Heaven! :-D

I think this was the second time I met with an actual photographer, and as usual I was very anxious! I mean-walking down the street trying to look 'normal' while a photographer is walking in the middle of the road following you taking hundreds of shots.....it's a weird thing to see right??  especially if your not a celeb! lol

I have never seen it myself...random bloggers on the streets of London getting snapped...(yet!) so I know if I saw that scenario myself, I might think "what the heck??"

That being said-I do like to see bloggers actually wearing an outfit Out and About! instead of just standing outside their house every single time.....I want to see the outfits in Action! (or at least in a normal public setting lol).
I guess I should point out the door I am standing outside in one of the picture is not my house! lol
These pics were taken in Queensway where we managed to find an abstract wall on the side of a random building which looked great in the pics.

We had actually finished the shoot, when I noticed my "Princess court"! and of course I had to capture it ;-D

meet me in santorini-the h&m dress











 




























 Dress £14.99 H&M | Sandals £16 Primark | Necklace £6 Rare London | Gold Cuff £3 Primark | Sunglasses 5 euros Barcelona


I decided to wear this dress for the first time in Santorini as it is such a summery dress! The tribal inspired print is gorgeous, and I love the asymetric cut of the hem.
The sandals were a big hit with the locals as they are quite 'Grecian' lol  I'm hoping the weather will improve in the UK so I can wear this outfit again soon!
On that day, we went to see the sunset in Oia, which was remarkable! so many people make the trip to see it in person....and now I know why :-D

On rare occasions I do wear my hair out without my headscarf-but I am trying to grow out an afro, so I prefer to keep it in protective styles in my headscarf as the weather in the UK is notoriously unpredictable :-(   and for some reason, I feel like I look younger when I don't wear my headsarf-what do you think?? lol

I have a couple of pics left to share with you from Santorini but I just wanted to show you this dress for now as I love it so much!-and it is such great value!

I have also just got back from Sardinia (which was amazing!)....so look out for posts from my time there too ;-)
