For Those About To Rock - Naomi

With Coachella only a few days away we are well and truly excited for festival season to finally kick of! MissGuided's brand new Festival section called Desert Wanderer has absolutely hit the nail on the head with the most amazing festival pieces at great prices, shop here!

Coachella is the best festival for the coolest street style around and will set the bar high for english festivals such as Glastonbury and Secret Garden Party this summer! I know for one I will be following the style over the internet this weekend and getting well and truly excited for festival style. 

We teamed up with our favourites MissGuided to bring you our favourite Coachella worthy looks. I went for this knock out snake maxi which is such a nice shape and fit, teaming it with a long statement tan waistcoat for the whole 70s vibe! For footwear you can't go wrong with these statement black western boots which tick the comfort and festival chic box. Not forgetting a statement hat, silver accessories and crochet bag for a nice mix of texture. 

How are you guys getting ready for Festival season? We would love to see!

Field Day - Naomi

Topshop Fringe Dress, Topshop Fringe Kimono, Topshop Adonis Boots, Primark Tan Bag, Accessorize Gold Belly Chain, Freedom at Topshop wooden earrings, Primark Feather Head Dress










Nothing beats festival attire and this year festival has took a whole new approach than the mad clashing bright prints. Think tonal, washed out and all white dressing which is all a about the detail and layering. Wear white lace, fringe, tassles, embellishment, denim with tan accessories and you will be good to go!

Topshops new festival window which also sports the white festival dressing and huge feather headdresses willl get you super excited for the season ahead! Since Coachella I have been lusting after everything festival and with the high street bringing out the most amazing product I just can't resist. Read my week in style where I have done a whole wish list on my festival needs.

Where are you heading this summer- Glastonbury, Field Day, Bestival, Lovebox or Shangrila? Isn't England amazing for festivals!!! Wherever you are going make sure you do it in true festival style.

I'm heading to Sonar in June and then Bestival in September so my festival wardrobe needs to be on top form- staples like the kimono worn in this look will go to both and offer endless amounts of outfits. I tend to look to eBay for one off vintage finds that no one will have, like my elephant waistcoat in post *California Dreaming*

Buy into statement pieces like a embellished kimono or short that will make your look feel so much more premium. Choose your prints wisely and stay away from cheaply printed Aztecs, go for embroidery, beading and crochets and keep accessories to a minimum but with maximum impact like a feather headdress, bumbag or floral headband.

This is one of my favourite looks and how I feel most confident (in a field, covered in fringing with a cider!) For more festival inspiration head down to your nearest Topshop or look at style photos from Coachella and start planning what's going to be in your rucksack for festival season 2013.

Naomi's Week In Style (Festival)


It's a month until I go to Barcelona to PARTAY and of course for me alot of planning goes into the outfits! So the next month I will be focusing on 6 amazing 'Naomi Approved' outfits to rock in Barcelona. I will be sharing with you my secrets and hopefully it will help some of you with building your holiday and festival wardrobes. I am sorry on the swimsuit obsession they were just too good to not share with you!

This week Topshop launched their festival window which of course is right up my street, this year festival has taken an 'all white' approach with white and washed out tones being key. Infact all white dressing has become apparent all through the fashion world and something that looks so god dam fresh going into summer! Take note readers!

Of course I have gone mental bright and print crazy (oops!) here are the things on my Barcelona wishlist.... I hope you enjoy!

1. Runway Dreamz Woven Shorts $115

I have wanted these for ages but they are very expensive! I love a statement short and think that pattern on these are so unique and original. They would be so easy to wear with a bikini, tee or jumper and boots. Perfect for Barcelona and perfect for Bestival end of summer. They come in loads of other patterns equally as nice... how cute are the pom poms!! 

2. ASOS Woven Detail Swimsuit £35

I always find amazing swimsuits that I just love to wear with denim shorts and loads of jewellery. I spotted this in the recent ASOS Magazine and fell in love. The woven detail on the front is just to die for and would look great with some denim high waisted shorts, chunky ethnic jewellery and a bumbag. NEED! 

3. ASOS Swimwear

ASOS are working it this year with swimwear! Also spotted in their recent magazine this fantastic Ombre Plunge Swimsuit and Leaf Caged bikini top are both amazing to throw on with shorts and a big hair accessory and be good to go! I always find the shapes on swimsuits are so flattering and different. These both are definitely at the top of my list!

4.  American Apparel Sunflower Shorts £56

Big love for this new print by American Apparel, I think there fantastic for summer and would look great with a crop or bandeau and a sunflower headband. They are expensive but know they will fit amazing and be super high waisted so very flattering. The print also comes in a shirt! Co-ord potential?  

5. River Island Gold Plunge Swimsuit £29.99

There is always time in summer to look and feel like an egyptian princess. Draped in gold and heavily accessorised- Cleopatra is a look thats always in my wardrobe. I LOVE this swimsuit the plunge and low back makes it super sexy, throw on with a short, sunnies and sandals and be good to go. 

6. Ebay Hippy Flower Sunglasses £2.50

My friend had these as fancy dress and I fell in love. One of my looks for sonar is going to be 'pastel ombre' and these glasses are exactly what I need to make my outfit stand out. At £2.50 they are a perfect accessory for holiday or a festival. 

7. Topshop Flatform Wicker Shoes

I am going to be on my feet alot and need something super cool but also super comfy! The flatform wicker canvas shoes came into Topshop and think they are so right. The extra bit of heel will make me feel more confident than a flat in shorts but still be comfortable. It's not often comfy and cool come under the same category so I think this will be £60 well spent. 

8. Etsy Handmade Feather Earring 

Etsy is a wonderful site for unique and original items. I love these handmade oversized feather earrings. They come in a rainbow of colours to pick from! I love matching outfits with accessories and these will be perfect to finish of my festival look. 

9. Etsy Vintage Crochet Crop 

Crochet is a must, I love the texture and depth it adds to an outfit. It makes you automatically feel more boho chic. Go for a simple black or cream crochet crop and team it with a bright printed short like the Runway Dreamz ones in this post. Coachella eat your heart out!

California Dreaming - Naomi

Ebay Elephant Vintage Top, Ebay Denim Shorts, Primark Leopard Floppy Hat, Topshop Adonis Boots, Vintage Brown Belt






Was anyone else dreaming of Coachella last week and drooling over some of the ensembles that the celebrities and fashionistas were rocking? Well I wanted to kill myself but yet still put myself through the pain of looking because I couldn't get enough of some of the outfits this year! Coachella is called a festival for the good looking and it's certainly that- its got the 'Coachella Cool' factor which everyone lusts over.

I don't know whether I was more excited over Kate Bosworth sporting items from the 'Topshop Festival' collection which will be out in high summer or whether it was Katy Perry in the D&G co-ord, but whatever it was it sure got me going and like every year Coachella is one of those things I really need to do!

For me the festival season is where I can really show my true colours! You don't have to tell me twice to wear my one of five feather head dresses! I love everything festival, bright colours, layering, textures, clashing prints , accessories, big chunky boots, bumbags, glitter and sunnies. What's no to love?
Any excuse to rock messy hair, minimal make up and be covered In mud I'm all for it!

I have been so impressed with my latest vintage finds, they are true vintage originals and came all the way from America. My most recent, the elephant top which is handmade and hand batik and has little wooden buttons. Elephants have made a come back this year in summer safari trends and as seen at Coachella. The shorts are also vintage, I love the colour and print on them. I wore them together because I wanted the look to be quite tonal all the rich browns together and finished off with my huge leopard floppy hat which would be essential for me at Coachella. Less is more with accessories, a simple belt and sunglasses were enough to finish off this look. Oh and don't forget the trusted backpack which would be clearly full of wonderfulness at a festival: glitter, headdresses, wet wipes and alcohol!

Different festivals around the world have a certain style to them like an unwritten dress code, so we are going to do a Glastonbury inspired post to show the difference and we know you guys are super excited about Glastonbury aswell! Keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks for more festival vibes.
