Pink Lemonade - Amy

Vintage Mixed Yarn Jumper via Reign, Topshop High Polo Neck Crop Top, Topshop Love Heart Playsuit, Topshop Circular Sunglasses, Boohoo Clutch, Topshop Gilmore Shoes







It has been too long! I am so sorry it's taken a life time for me to post -life has gone into overdrive but were back together now and raring to go!

AW is most definitely in full swing in fashion world with fluffy knit jumpers being your must have right now which is what this outfit is based around! Sickly sweet, pastel colour palettes are also taking the high street by storm so what better than mixing the lot with this amazing jumper I bought from vintage store 'reign' in Oxford. The cut off style collar means it doesn't look too granny-ish but I don't know how much longer I can wear it this season without looking like a marshmallow due to ever growing little bump! 

To stick with the overly girly vibe, I have gone with a love heart motif playsuit (love hearts also making a comeback, totally in love with the Burberry shirt used in their campaign imagery!) but kept a clean layered look by adding in the high neck top. 

I have kept accessories to pink and black to match the playsuit and have gone bare legged as although its an AW inspired outfit, it's still warm enough to get those pins out so why not make the most of it?

Garden Party: Part 2 - Amy

Vintage Denim Jacket via Rokit, Topshop Cut Out Shoulder Floral Dress, Naomi's Tutu, H&M Sunglasses, Primark Gem Necklace, Topshop Frilly Ankle Socks, Topshop Gilmore Court Shoes









So I thought it was about time I got my second Garden Party installment to you all! As I said before, florals are my go to for any summery look but rather than getting too fancy with layers, I decided I wanted to play around with just one focal piece for this outfit - the shoulder cut out dress.

This floral print was huge last summer, and worked so well Topshop have resurrected it in the form of a skater skirt this season. Shoulder cut outs are still going strong so even though this dress is last years, it fits very comfortably into SS13 and is interesting enough to use as a centre piece, but with just about enough room to have some fun with accessories to liven it up even more for that really ootd party look :)

This dress is gorgeous dress is perfect to throw on during the day but for a party, more is sometimes more and I wanted the skirt to be fuller so simply put the tutu underneath to get my dream party dress. I then chose a statement necklace, that wouldn't be too ootd against the pattern of the dress. The colours that shine on the necklace in certain lights pick out the pale pinks in the sunglasses, shoes and flowers on the dress so all tie in together nicely. For an added girly pastel colour, I went for lilac socks. The white frill detail also match to the belt and tutu to keep the outfit lightly outlined :)

It wouldn't be an outfit of mine without something to rough it up a bit so I finished with my oversized denim jacket from Rokit - the perfect contrast to all the girly bits.
