Dorothy Perkins sale!

As most of you know, DP is having a sale. I love sales and cant resist a gorgeous bargain. Here are my picks from the Dp sale...
This vest is a gorgeous shade of green. It's plain I know but it would look lovely with a white skirt and green wedges. And at £3 from £5, it can't be missed. Saving £2.
These linen trousers make a fresh alternative to black trousers for the office. They are smart enough for a formal event and would look great with a tee and some wedges for a casual outfit. £15 down from £25 saving £10.



Pumps are supposed to be "out" this winter but over at SFF we have decided that we're not letting go of our flats this easily. They are comfortable, stylish and great for dressing up/down. These have a very Pucci-esque print and would look cute with a pair of skinny jeans and a tunic top. Half price at £10 making a saving of £10.




Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize. A girl can't have enough sunglasses and jewellery can she? I have a pair of sunglasses for everyday of the week and a couple spare. Another pair won't hurt and loving teal, these are the perfect pair for me. £5 from £10 saving £5. Necklaces are a great way to accessorize and totally change an outfit. These won't fail to impress! Red leaf necklace £2.50 from £10 saving £7.50. Orange bead necklace £2 from £8 saving £6.
If you are a lover of clutches, I'm sure you'll love this cute bag. Not a fan of clutches myself but the colour! Wow, amazing rich ruby red that is described as pink on the website. Perfect for a night out, this would fit in all the essentials. Half price ate £6 saving £6.
And for all you tall ladies, here is a gorgeous print tunic top. Fi, it's blue! A summer essential which can be used as a beach cover up or dressed casual or glam. Perfect multi tasker to save space in your suitcase. £12 down from £25 saving £13.

Not forgetting all those petite girls out there! These white cropped pants are a summer must have and cost £20 down from £25 saving £5. Pair with almost anything you can think of and go!


Mums to be can still look fashionable (as Carol from SFF proves to us). This printed smock is cute and casual, wear with jeans and pumps to show which cat's got the cream! £15 half price saving £15.

Purple, the colour of the season.

Purple. cute, girlie, sweet colour? No! it's the colour of the season an a must have for everyone. We can't stop talking about it over at SFF and here are my top 10 purple picks. Enjoy, Bon appetit...

A little black dress is an essential but the LPD is taking over. Stunning and goddess like, this is a fabulous dress. I love the gathering detail and I could imaging Angelina Jolie wearing it walking the red carpet. Yours for only £89 from Oli, it's hardly red carpet price!!




This purple bracelet from Accessorize is uber cute but could be glammed for nighttime chic with a silky purple shirt and black trousers. Very individual, it looks handmade and unique. Total modern city girl. £9. (See picture)
Purple shoes are a subtle way of introducing this A/W key trend into your wardrobe without looking like a trend victim. Wear them with jeans, black trousers or a white flowing skirt to look like the ultimate on trend girl. These are a fine example and £75 from FCUK. (See picture) The last essential is a good quality coat. Over at Oli, they seem to be indulging in the purple trend because they have stacks of purple clothes. I'm loving this coat £89...


If the summer decides to show up this year, purple sunnies are and essential to stay key on trend. Often spotted on Nicole Richie and such like celebrities, these style sunglasses can cost a fortune, but this is a nice and cheap way of introducing this winters trend before your friends without harming your wallet. These shades are £3 down from £8 in the Dorothy Perkins sale.Who doesn't own a coloured v-neck jumper? I own 5 but none are purple. So I will be getting myself down to Dorothy Perkins to snap up this purple v-neck jumper at the bargain price of £12!!
The designers at Net-a-porter are all jumping on the purple bandwagon too, look at these Sergio Rossi killer heels. They could look great with jeans or amazing with a dress. The only problem is the price tag...£355, but look at the shiny patent leather and jewels.Jimmy Choo is known internationally so he can get great ideas from the trends in different countries, this however, is a great British trend inspired bag! Yes purple, soft, squishy leather with silver, modern hardware. Ahhh £875 at Net-a-porter.


If you want to shell out £750 on a cute purple dress, then this is for you! Made by Fendi and oh so cute, it's detail and craftsmanship make this dress oh so desirable...


Debenhams have chosen wisely, combining two trends in one, The Lop (long+top=lop) and Purple, not forgetting a bit of sparkle. Wear this over leggings, with jeans or with tights for and uber glam look. Get it for £45.

Summer showers

Sorry, I've been busy in the last few days so I haven't had time to post but Emma (SFF) gave me an idea today. Yes we all hate it more than any other weather but It's even worse when it's pouring down in the middle of summer. Not only does it turn your freshly straightened hair into a fuzz ball, but it also conjures up the same old problem every time " What should I wear in the hot rain?"


The Image below consists of:
Cotton dress, £32 Topshop (100% cotton so fast drying)

Tights, Get them anywhere (Fast drying)

Leather bag, £20 Topshop

Wedges, £50 Topshop (Great for keeping those toosties dry because of the height)

Coat, £50 Topshop (Pop on if gets chilly)





The next outfit is another perfect summers rainy day outfit...

Long shorts, £25 Miss Selfridge

Camisole, £12 Debenhams

Mac, £55 Debenhams

Shoes, £20 Debenhams

Bag, £55 Topshop

Belt, £12 Topshop
