1 dress, 3 ways to wear

Since the first 'three ways to wear' post was so successful I thought I'd do another this week, this week I'm showing you three ways to wear a statement dress, weather it be neon print like this beaut from H&M or animal print for example. Just because you don't have a night out planned does'nt mean you have to push it to the back of your wardrobe! enjoy...






Dress - £14.99 H&M
Bomber - £19.99 H&M
Bangle - £3.99 H&M
Neon Clutch - £12.99
Long Socks - F&F @ Tescos (Old)
Heels - eBay (Old)

This is probably one of my favorite outfits for a night out right now - and in head to toe H&M! Who would have guessed? Bomber jackets are perfect for light wear on nights out, giving you that extra bit of warmth when you're tottering from pub to club! I love the super flattering pattern and cut of this dress, its fail safe and such a bargain!






Dress - £14.99 H&M
Jumper - £14.99 H&M (Old)
Necklace - £4 Primark
Long Socks - F&F @ Tescos (Old)
Boots - £14.99 Topshop (Old)

If like me the thought of having bare legs out scares the life out of you, chuck on a pair of thigh high socks and push them down so you get some flattering creasing - believe me its warmer and feels alot more comfy than bare legs! Teaming a plain jumper with the dress underneath means no jacket needed in the current weather and in addition? your statement dress has now been transformed into a statement skirt. Team with a neon necklace and hey prestooooo...






Dress - £14.99 H&M
Pleather skirt - £14.99 Asos (Old)
Necklace - £5 Topshop
Tights - F&F @ Tescos (Old)
Cardigan - £11.99 Primark (Old)
Bag – eBay
Watch - £14.99 Asos via eBay
Dolly bow pumps - £11.99 Primark
Boots - £14.99 Topshop (Old)

Fancy adding some colour to your wardrobe but without going the whole way? add a plain skirt over the top and a chunky knit to tone down the bright pattern/colour of the dress, a perfect uni/college outfit.

Neon Pop




Maxi dress - £10 SALE Republic (Last year)
Sheer bomber - £14.99 H&M
Neon spike necklace - £4 Primark
Neon pumps - £5 H&M SALE
Sunglasses - Newlook (OLD)
Bag - eBay

I told you I had another cheeky bomber jacket lined up didn't I! I adore this one ALSO from H&M! I've worn this on nights out and in my daytime wardrobe, its so lightweight, I can actually fold it into my clutch bag! I think everyone's embraced the monochrome trend and used a bit of neon to jazz it up. What could be cheaper than this statement necklace and sale pumps! I took these a couple days ago - fingers crossed the weather stays nice now!

How have you been rocking the monochrome trend?

I'm known for taking what I deserve and your overdue






Long sleeve crop - £10 Topshop
Leather look pinafore - £22 (Sale) Miss Selfridge
Necklace - Primark
Tights - Primark
Boots - Topshop (Sale)

This pinafore is my bargain of the week, down from £42 I'm so so chuffed I found this. Its a denim fabric with a waxy overlay? The final outcome is a leather looking thing. But how cute is this! I had lots of comments when I wore it to work the day after I brought it :) Beware! Get the size above you if you have boobs as it does come up rather short

P.s I'm not sorry for my over wear of long sleeve crops! They go with everything! ;)

Flower Power




Long sleeve crop - £10 Topshop
Floral treggings - £28 Topshop
Burgundy cardigan - £9.99 eBay (Old)
Leather jacket - (gift) Miss Selfridge
Ankle strap heels - eBay (Old)

Lips '107' Kate Moss for Rimmel

If you kept an eye on the SS '13 catwalks I'm sure these treggings will remind you of the 60s inspired Prada collection .. It can't be just me right? I fell in love with these in Topshop and brought them for my house mate Luke's 21st birthday meal and night out. The quality of them is amazing and they fit similarly to disco pants. I'm so smitten. Heres two looks for patterned bottoms if your looking to try them, simply changing a cardi to a jacket and shoulder bag to a clutch can make over your whole look. Also say hello to my new Minnie Mouse tattoo! again for Luke's 21st I paid for us both to get friendship tattoos - He has Mickey!
