New Romantics

Floaty chiffon? Off shoulder? This is The New Romantics trend!

White Off Shoulder Gyspy Top // Forever 21

Flared Jeans // Glamorous (now just £14!)

Daisy Chain Choker // Select
Silver Coin Chain Belt // Boohoo

My favourite trend for this season is the new romantics, with the main theme being floaty fabric and off shoulder tops which are definitely having a moment right now - they are everywhere!

I'm really pleased this style has made such a huge comeback as it is so flattering on everyone and is a subtle way to flash abit of skin adding a new twist to an evening outfit and tbh I was getting abit bored of crop tops! Crop tops don't work well when you have the need to eat carbs all the time! :) haha!

This one caught my eye whilst shopping in Forever 21 during LFW and I just fell in love straight away! I haven't been able to find it on their site I'm afraid so it may have sold out? Its part of their contemporary collection.

The off shoulder top is a great look for upcoming festival looks as well, check out my fave picks below!

Ok..so technically I'm not head to toe mustard yellow!

Its probably the most annoying thing about buying something online (apart from the worry of will it/won't it fit) ,the whole colour res thing! they always photoshop stuff within an inch of its life till sometime the garment is nothing like how it looked in the pic or pics are taken in a low light so its just hard to tell. However, it seems to have worked out fine in this case anyway! Call it shades of yellow lol! I haven't worn this much brown n yellow since I was a Brownie Guide!

We all have a colour were scared of wearing or simply don't because it doesn't suit are skin tone - fair enough - I find that most jewel tones, in particular, Cobalt Blue is not a colour that suits me well. Most people's scary colour to wear though I've found is actually yellow, despite being a lovely happy colour!

I love wearing yellow, mainly in golden mustard tones rather than garish banana yellow or lemon and was really pleased when I first adventured in to Stradivarius in Barcelona, this was there colour of the moment! Having always wanted a wrist handled clutch, I picked this one up. When I got back I then started shopping around for shorts and found these cute corded ones on Ebay for £1.99, didn't realise though the jumper I already had was alot lighter! Wasn't exactly what I had dreamed up but it works together just as nicely :)

What colours do you tend to choose/avoid when shopping? :)

60's Mod

Check Grid Print Dress - Select - http://www.selectfashion.co.uk/gridprintdress
Scunci Vintage Fringe Roller - http://www.claires.co.uk/vintage-fringe-roll-by-scunci
Red Patent Heels - Marks & Spencer http://www.marksandspencer.com/

I'm lovin that monochrome has come back in with a bang for AW14, this time with a more 60's Mod vibe.

Can you believe that this quirky black & white grid print dress is only £12 from Select?! Hello bargain!

I love it because of its double layer style, which instantly makes it super flattering if your in the small boob club as as the crop top part draws all the attention to your waist :D
I bought a tropical print crop dress in the summer which remains one of my favorite purchases this year so I'm really glad that it looks like these crop dresses are here to stay!

I also spotted a fringe roller in Claire's a couple of weekends ago which is made by Scunci, who make loads of other DIY hair kits for those of us who are crap at putting hair up without getting hair loops whilst trying to pull hair in a bun or unable to plait your hair because you somehow end up with your own fingers caught in to your braids - shamelessly guilty of both of these!

I've been itching to figure out how to get more vintagey hairstyles without forking out for a hairdresser everytime so I picked one up and gave it a try. I found it a little bit fiddly at first but managed to get it working in about 15 mins yay! :) It actually worked better if you rolled it up the opposite way the instructions said! typo maybe???

Definitely check these out and persist with them, there pretty cool. Now theirs a whole vintage range of these, I think I'll pop back and get the victory roll kit next and start collecting them all.
