OOTN

dress - ASOS   shoes - Topshop   bag - Primark   watch - MK



hey chicas! firstly I'd like to apologise for these awkward pictures. they're terrible but they were still the best out of a bad bunch. an ice cream van decided to rock up to my house while I was taking these pictures hence the random ice cream prop - it wanted to get in on the camera action ;)

I've been waiting to wear this dress for 2 whole months! I bought it before christmas and have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to wear it since. luckily on saturday that moment finally happened as it was my friends birthday so I showcased it in the clubs of birmingham (which I must say I can't actually remember much about other than now my bag and purse are covered in mud which I guess is a sign I had a good night - I'd love to know where this mud came from though!).

the moment I set eyes on this dress I fell in love with it! I have an obsession with off-the-shoulder pieces at the moment and thought the little cut out detail was beautiful. I was a bit sceptical to buy it at first though as I hate showing my legs because of my weird knees; like seriously how have I even got fat knees, it looks like I've got 4! eventually though I decided my love for this dress is more than my hatred for my knees so I bit the bullet and purchased it. I don't think my obsession with off-the-shoulder pieces is going to die down in the near future either so I think I might buy the midi version too; as you've all probably noticed I have a bit of an obsession with anything midi so you'll probably see me wearing it soon!

I also wore my new Lassie shoes from Topshop. I absolutely love them and really need to invest in all the colours! on reflection the red versions would have looked a lot better with this dress but as I haven't bought them yet my black ones had to do the job. I highly recommend these shoes to anyone as I think they are relatively cheap for topshop as you'd normally expect to pay around £80 for their shoes, and they are extremely comfortable compared to other heels. I can't lie they did hurt my feet at the end of the night, but that was 3am and I'd been standing up for hours so that's to be expected. other heels normally hurt my feet before I've even got out the taxi so these were definitely worth splashing out on.

I'm now going to make the most of my week off by watching the bodyguard and stuffing my face with pizza. I hope you all have a good week and spend it more productively than me :)
