Valentines Night Out With George ASDA


Many people are under the preconception that Supermarket clothing can be rather distasteful and unfashionable and this may have been right several years ago, but now Supermarket clothing seems to be rivalling some of the best high street fashion stores. Clothing lines such as F&F for Tesco,  the M&S collection and George for ASDA are bringing out a fabulous selection of spring clothing and as they are relatively low in price, more and more people seem to be picking their clothing up alongside their groceries. 


ASDA have launched a blogger challenge called 'Valentines Night Out.' Each of the participants were asked to pick a dress from the website they would most like to wear out on Valentines evening and a stylist would then pick out an accessory at random to go with what they have chosen. My choice was this wonderful skater dress* and necklace set. This dress is incredibly versatile and can be rocked up with a pair of heels or would look great with a pair of ballerinas. The added necklace adds a splash of colour, adding life to what could be considered as a boring little black dress. The fit is wonderful and the fabric feels soft and stretchy. It's a delight to wear and my partner who took these photographs loves it.


My little surprise from the styling team was this really pretty pink satchel. I've always wanted one of these, but could never really find the right one I liked. This satchel* from George at ASDA is a vibrant pink colour which is perfect for the bold pink colours currently in the S/S14 trends. It adds a little bit of variety to your wardrobe, spices up a dull outfit and really is a statement piece that can be used all summer.This little bag retails at £12 which is an absolute bargain. When holding the handbag and feeling the quality, you wouldn't think it would be that affordable. I'm tempted to buy lots of different colours.

What would your ideal Valentines outfit be?

In Love With Fashion: Blogger Challenge




It's incredibly rare that I ever take part in any blogger challenges, however the recent In Love with Fashion monthly challenge grabbed my attention. Each of their bloggers have been asked to create an outfit on a budget surrounding one of their sale dresses. After skimming through their sale items, I fell in love with this Love Red Gathered Sleeve Tea Dress at the bargainous price of £22. I could easily see myself wearing this dress to work, to go shopping and dressing it up for a night out, it's so versatile. The colour is really bright, sticking to my New Years Resolution of adding brighter colours to my wardrobe and it also looks sophisticated, following my plans to go for a more demure wardrobe for when I'm married next year.

I'm teamed the In love With Fashion dress with an affordable £1 pinkish red lip from MUA, a pair of kitten heels from Everything5pounds.com, a pearl inspired necklace from ASDA at £6 and a beautiful vintage inspired bag from Ebay at around £18. This outfit comes in at £52 (excluding shipping) and I think that's a perfect price for a complete outfit. After all in some high street stores you can't even get a t-shirt for less than £30.

Overall, I love this outfit. It's great for adding a burst of colour this January and will also see you through to Valentines Day in February, after all red is the colour of love.  If I wasn't on a spending ban I'd probably rush out and buy each item straight away. This doesn't stop you though, I recommend going over to the In Love With Fashion website and checking out their sale items, there's so many beautiful pieces for you to snap up, especially if you're trying to reinvent your style this season.

Dreaming of Ibiza: Swimsuit Edition


source

My holiday to Ibiza is almost a month away and I cannot retain my excitement. Every day I look outside at this British weather, I'm dreaming of the much hotter climate i'll be spending a week in, relaxing by the pool. Don't get me wrong, the weather over here has been more than fabulous lately, but it's not quite hot enough to give me an all over tan. Having not been abroad in over 10 years, I cannot wait to embrace the jetset life and finally embark on a new adventure. I miss the thrill of being on a plane and the warm air almost snuggling you as you reach your landing point. I can't wait to get there and jump straight into the water with a mask and snorkel - hello tropical fish  it's great to see you again.

To be able to go swimming and to properly enjoy my holiday in Ibiza, I get to grab some new swimwear. I've been working my a** off at the gym and my bodies looking in a little better shape, so I really need a bikini that will show off all my dedication and hard work. I've been searching the web, going into stores and looking on Ebay for my favourites and here are a few I've come across on my search. So far the Topshop high waisted bikini's are winning for me, but I could really see myself purchasing every single one in a mad shopping frenzy.

The High Waisted Bikini's

Having lost a fair bit of weight, my stomach isn't in the best shape. I've got the odd stretch mark I'd rather not have and a little bit of loose skin. A high waisted bikini is perfect for me, because it shows off my lovely toned upper half and covers all the bits i'm terrified of showing. I love the sexy bandage cut Topshop bikini's and this little Red Herring floral number is so cute - grab it whilst it's on offer, I'm tempted to do so.

The 'All in One' Swimsuit

These designs are classic and pretty much suit everyone. I love the retro designs that are out at the moment and you could really envision an Hollywood icon wearing the New Look and River Island designs. The Asda swimsuit is cute and I think the design adds a little bit of fun, which would bode well with the party lifestyle in Ibiza.


The Skimpy Bikini

These bikini's are great for those who have the perfect beach body and want to flaunt it. There are so many amazing styles out there at such affordable prices. I love the Lego design of the Primark Bikini, it makes me think of the 80s. The American flag design from Bank is classic and I love the fun thrills on the Missguided bikini. If the Missguided bikini doesn't get you excited for your holidays, their new blog  definitely will. Check out their holiday wear guide to give you holiday motivation.
























All of the swimwear mentioned have such great price tags that it's easy to pick up one or two on anyone's budget and I could easily see myself spending a fair amount in the next few weeks.  Creating this blogpost has fuelled my holiday excitement even more. I can't wait to say bye bye England and hello Ibiza!

Do you have any holidays booked?
