In The Pink: Summer Casuals

Hey,

Here's an outfit I threw on after work; seizing the opportunity of the warm evening to walk down to a close by beer garden for a few drinks in the sun.

It was so sunny, I couldn't even open my eyes without my sunglasses! Also shadows galore in these photos...

Clubmaster sunglasses - Rayban
Faux septum ring - Elisha Francis*
Colourful beaded choker - Primark
Pink orb tee - Vivienne Westwood Anglomania @ Repertoire Fashion*
Blue skinny jeans - Jailbird Jeans*
Chunky patent mules - ASOS

I was seriously lacking in cool, casual tees so when Repertoire Fashion got in touch to see if there was anything I'd like from their huge collection of designer brands, I immediately went for this colourful orb tee from Vivienne Westwood's Anglomania line. 

I'm not necessarily a pink person but I thought this bold colour would look wicked for summer.

I've casually paired it with my new skinny jeans from Jailbird. These high-rise blue jeans are amazing value at just £23.99 (currently in sale). The denim is really thick with a slight stretch, and I like that the cuffs have contrast binding so they look good when turned up too.

I made the look a bit more pub-friendly with some chunky mid-height heels. I also popped in one of my new faux septum rings from the Elisha Francis Bomani Woman collection. These are great for adding a bit of edge if you don't have the bottle or maybe an appropriate job to be able to sport a real septum piercing. 

I've met Elisha before and she has real talent for jewellery making and a fantastic creative eye. As well as making gorgeous pieces of jewellery with crystals and semi-precious gemstones, she also has an incredible line of customised trainers.

What's your go-to finishing touch to your casual outfits?

Another Brick in the Wall

Hello!

Today brings an outfit I wore to the cinema last weekend. I actually took these afterwards; I'm always late so any chance of getting pictures beforehand is pretty unlikely.

I think the late hour might have something to do with my weird facial expressions (seriously, these were the best of the bunch!) coupled with the fact that I was a bit too aware of my surroundings.

This is a new photo location you see. It's actually just outside my flat's front door. I wanted to try it out as I like red brick backdrops, trouble is it's sort of in public and I embarrass easy, gahhh.

Oh and if you're interested, I watched World War Z. I thought it was okay. The 'zombies' were pretty scary as they were fast motherfuckers (the worst kind! Bring on the shufflers please if there's ever a zombie apocalypse) but it was a little too Hollywood for a zombie movie if you ask me. The boyfriend wasn't all that impressed as he really loves the book and it's pretty different apparently.

Anyway- enjoy the look!


Oversized denim jacket: charity shop
Célize Bag tank: Unif Clothing
Belt: charity shop
Disco pants: American Apparel
Nike Low Blazers: Get The Label



Check me out in my new Unif top! I've wanted something from Unif for ages but I'd yet to order anything from the U S of A (despite all the cool LA brands I drool over on Instagram daily!) because of the hassle of it all really.

However I couldn't resist when Unif posted up a 30% off code back in May so i snapped up their Célize Bag top.

It was still fairly pricey, took what seemed like forever to come and then when it did, I had a customs fee to pay but it was so worth it- it's awesome.





Even though it's all intentionally distressed and covered in holes and probably looks like something you'd find in a skip, it's actually a really nice quality and soft thanks to the Modal mix fabric.






And was I the last to know about Glamorous stocking Unif? Excellent news but there's like nothing left now, boo! Does anyone know if they're restocking?




Obligatory face shot. Don't know what's going on in these pictures, my head looks massive!


Let me know what you think of the brick wall.

Love,

Foxy x


Oh and P.S. another friendly request to add me on Bloglovin' if you enjoy reading my blog as Google Reader is in its final hours

It's not ideal as I've neglected Bloglovin' in the past and many have suggested that Google Friend Connect won't be around much longer which isn't great news to all the bloggers who've worked really hard to build up their following. 

Anyway if you fancy giving me a follow on Bloglovin', be sure to leave a link to your own in my comments and I'll return the favour!
