Missguided Haul

I'm a little obsessed with online shopping sooo a mini Missguided haul has taken place! I often end up on clothing websites out of boredom but there's nothing wrong with a little spree now and again. It's far too hard to resist, especially with the beginning of AW approaching and the start of the university term looming. I'll attach the links at the bottom of this post!















My first item is this white ribbed crop top. All I wear is crop tops so I thought this would be a lovely little
addition to my collection. I wanted something long sleeved but something that would also match with clothes I already have so this 3/4 sleeved crop is perfect. It can be dressed up at the evening or worn down with some jeans so it's very versatile. I don't have many white items of clothing and I thought it would be a great change from black. However, I was slightly disappointed because it's an off-white colour so it appears a tad cream (in my eyes anyway!). 









This is another little crop top that's a bit different. It's from Missguided's new AW collection eek. It's a blacked out crochet button-up top that's so adorable. Again, this could be dressed up or down. It could either be worn buttoned-up or unbuttoned with a another little crop underneath. It's so cute and is perfect for dressing up with a bright skirt and bag. It's almost like a winter version of the summer white crochet!





Next up is this gorgeous silk-feel shirt which was in the sale for just £9.99. I've had my eye on this shirt for a few weeks now and I'm so happy that I've bought it - it's the most perfect shirt I've ever owned! It's made up of gorgeous colours and the material really is almost like silk. I love the pattern and although it's quite "summery", it'll be lovely to brightened up a dull, autumn day. 











Last but not definitely least is this amazing rose gold skirt - another purchase from the new AW lines. It will be such a lovely item of clothing to wear in the winter months for special occasions. I haven't ever bought any thing in this type of material/colour before but it was love at first sight and I can't wait to wear it when I get the chance (maybe at freshers yay). The picture really doesn't do it justice at all. In fact, you're better off checking the link to see the model's pictures on the website!

Favourite Summer Accessories

We're nearing the end of summer (boooo) and about to venture into Autumn time so I thought I'd collect a round up of my favourite summer shoes, jewellery and bags.




SHOES SHOES SHOES


These are some of my favourite shoes I've ever purchased! I bought them in about April in prep for my holiday and I've worn them sooo much - can't get enough! When I first saw these shoes I didn't know anyone else with them which probably made me love them even more. But now e v e r y o n e has them. I suppose it's not all bad as it just shows how great they are, right?! I wore them pretty much every evening on holiday as they're so comfy and they go with everything! I've got a little bit of a thing for white shoes at the moment.

I purchased these from eBay for around £20 but you can them anywhere now and are available in loooads of different of colours. I've also got them in black!





My next favourite pair of shoes at the moment are these amazing flatform sandals from Bank (no longer available online). Originally I was after some Birkenstock sandals, you know, those really ugly ones? But I figured that they can't be that practical for holiday/walking as they'd just flip off your feet wouldn't they? So, I found this perfect pair instead! Super, super comfy (although not recommended for running around Venice lost trying to catch your water bus for the airport at 3am with a 16kg suitcase..)



PRETTY CLUTCHES

Nothing better than a pretty bag and these are two of my all time favourites! Pastel shades and sparkly embellishments are perfect for brightening up an outfit. 


The oversized lilac clutch is amazing! Lilac is my favourite colour at the moment so it's currently matching with a lot of my outfits right now and this is such a lovely shade - it's gorgeous! Only £15 from Boohoo and it's also available in bright coral. It's quite a large bag which I can never quite fill with just my purse, phone, keys, lippy and mirror but still, it's fab. 

Next up is the most beautiful embellished clutch for.... £10! That's right! In Topshop this would easily be at least £40, right? Good old Primark. (I'm normally a bit hesitant buying stuff from Primark but this is such a gorgeous bag and I had to have it - especially at that price) It's a little smaller than the lilac bag and I would consider this to be the perfect sized clutch! If you're reading this and wanting this bag, I'm not sure it will still be available as I purchased it a few months ago while at uni. I don't have a store in my home town so I'm cut off from the Primark world. (Good?)



This cute little ASOS satchel was such a style steal which I bought in the sale a few weeks ago. I'm totally in love with shades of pale yellow and it's a perfect addition to my summer accessories. The details are so cute. Despite being a small satchel, there's a surprising amount of room inside which is great. ASOS is really good for bags at fab prices - they sell bags from a range of stores which don't accept student discount (i.e River Island) but buy from ASOS and you'll get your discount!





JEWELLERY

Last but definitely not least... Jewellery! I purchased a set of midi rings and a big statement ring from New Look. I love gold jewellery as I think it looks better(?!) than silver and looks classy with any outfit. 

This daisy choker is my absolute favourite - I wear it ALL the time! It's another ASOS purchase. It's so pretty, summery, festival-y and just gorgeous! It matches perfectly with my yellow ASOS satchel and white sandals. 



It feels as though summer is coming to an end soon. Is anyone else getting this feeling? I'm sorta sad but guys... Sneak peeks of Autumn collections look fabulous! Has anyone got their eye on anything pretty Autumnal items yet? I know I have.....
