Awesome Idea #5

Hi Everyone,

I know Sundays can be depressing, so I 
thought I would sprinkle a little bit of 
awesomeness into your day. 

It's like the 80s!
I know it's only one little idea but I hope
it brightens your day just a teensey bit!?

Oh and just a quick question - if you have
any advice or ideas on upcycling old furniture
please comment in the box below, I'd love to 
have a chat! 

Have a Happy Monday,

Minimalism

 Morning Everyone,

I know I haven't posted in eons but this is going to be a fresh start!
This Autumn, I'm looking at Minimalism; making basic and bright pieces of 
clothing into something spectacular! 

Here is a collection of my favourite Autumn items:

A gorgeous statement  Eagle necklace -  €5.00 

Burgundy Brown Workman Sole Boots - £100 Office

Red Heavy Knit Jumper - €8.00 Sale Zara 


My Autumn Makeup Selection 

For a trendy little Autumn outfit: try a heavy knit jumper + denim shorts + black over the knee socks 
+ a black beanie = Basic Beautiful!

Autumn is one of my favourite fashion seasons, it's full of splashes of colour, elegant dresses, glamorous jackets and coats and incredibly daring makeup! Speaking of which, this Autumn's biggest trend is going to be pencilled eyebrows and plum lipstick.

Next Week, I'll be telling you all about the new Tartan Trend! 

Love,

Desperately Seeking Sunshine

Evening!

Hope you've all had a great day, this week has gone by so quickly! So, this week I suddenly had an idea to try out some old Denim Jackets that have been sitting in the back of my wardrobe for an age. I soon discovered a very 80s style that I like to call: "I've-seen-it-all-so-don't-look-at-me-like-that".

The style reminded me of Desperately Seeking Susan, where Madonna is seen wearing Bomber Jackets, red lipstick and over-sized hoops:


I hope you like the style, it fits in with the All-Denim craze and American Skater skirts obsession. The Jacket is from Benetton (I got it from a charity shop!), Top is Topshop, Skirt is New Look (in season) and Bandana is New Look. 

I adore this outfit and it's perfect for Shopping or for an evening out with friends and family! 

Enjoy,

Stripes to die for!

Evening All, 

I went on a mini spree at the weekend and bought
 a few new things for the Blog! The dress I'm wearing (in 
the photos) is a gorgeous spring garment perfect 
for garden parties, a picnic or just everyday wear, to jazz
 it up a bit I've added some bright red lippy and a cute 
circular bowler hat, just to add a sprinkle of quirky chic. 
This is typical brick lane wear and it's 
my favourite outfit!

I would usually add a pair of brown leather sandals (for summer) or some chocolate coloured boots, but as you may be able to 
                                        see I am not actually wearing shoes! 

I love the grey stripes, they're much more subtle than navy or black and the 
outfit makes you feel amazing! 

Hope you all had a nice weekend?! Any trends you want me to test out?
