Packing For Bestival - Naomi

So Bestival is in a few days and I am super excited! Festival style is right up my street and it makes me very happy I can rock my festival attire for one last time in 2013! Anything with fringing, texture, print and huge hair accessories are a definite pack for me so I have decided to show you my 4 outfits I have chosen for Bestival and where to buy! Hope you enjoy and if you are going to I hope this gives you a bit of inspiration with what to pack! 

Look 1: Miss Guided Long Checked Cape, Zara Fishnet Top, Topshop Boutique Leather Pinafore, Primark Checked Shirt, Topshop Purple Hat, Primark Necklace, Vintage Boots 

Since buying this checked cape from Miss Guided a few days ago I am head over heels for it! See next weeks post for full style notes on it! I have teamed this with my leather pinafore and fishnet top for a grungy look! I plan to wear homemade fishnet shorts, chunky black boots and a clashing checked shirt  round my waist! Can't wait to wear this one- will finish it off with my Topshop purple hat. 

Look 2: c/o Boohoo Leather Gilet, Vintage Burnout Kimono, Minkpink Leopard Long Top, c/o Boohoo Crochet Denim Shorts, c/o Embroderied Bag, Forever 21 Necklace, c/o Boohoo Floral Crown 

This look is all around the leopard print top from Mink Pink which is perfect for festivals! Short at the front and maxi at the back it really has that festival feel. Teamed with crochet denim shorts, burnout kimono which looks great under a leather gilet as all the details still show on the arms finished of with Boohoo floral bag, silver necklace and a black floral crown. A grungy look with pops of colour and print  and perfect layers for day to night. 

Look 3: Topshop Long Faux Fur Gilet, Topshop Floral Playsuit, Vintage Belt, Primark Rucksack 

Brand new floral playsuit from Topshop is perfect for festival attire and looks great with my long cream fur gilet from Topshop. This look is super boho and looks great with festival ethnic jewellery, a chunky belt and boots and a floral hair crown...don't forget the trusty rucksack! 

Look 4: Laura Ralph Aztec Co-ord, Topshop Lace Slip, Topshop Kimono, Topshop Headdress, Primark Crochet Bag 

A washed out tonal outfit which is all about the texture and Aztec print. This matching shorts and top handmade by Laura Ralph is stunning and perfect for festivals! I layered it with a Lacey Topshop Slip over the shorts and under the top as i don't always like having my legs on show, it makes me feel more confident but still shows of the shorts, a fringe kimono over it which adds texture.. Everyone needs fringing at festivals! My favourite crochet bag from Primark and stunning feather headband which is a must have for festivals! One of my favourite looks for the weekend!

Now lets hope the sun stays shining! X

LMFLMF - Amy

Dress c/o LMFLMF, Topshop Fuzzy Square Print Shirt, Primark PU Biker, Topshop Sunglasses, Primark Necklace, Topshop Avenger Boots

Love my figure, love my fashion is a wonderful new website that allows you to shop by shape so you find your perfect dress without that heartbreaking gamble of wether it's going to flatter you in all the right places or not. 

I have always been quite confident with my wardrobe and know on the hanger whether something is suitable for me or not but since becoming pregnant, I have a lot of other lumps and bump(s) to consider so LMFLMF has been wonderful at learning what's best for my larger boobies (yay) and wider hips (boo).

Because of this I did gamble on an hour glass suited dress as I have managed to keep a little waist above bump so thought something that emphasised this would be best and came across this gorgeous bird print. Even though the shape of the dress is like nothing I've ever worn before, I felt the print made it a lot more me so I could ease myself into such a new shape.

Despite the print being me and the fact the dress does emphasise all my good bits! I still felt it was very dressy compared to my usual style so grunged it up with a shirt underneath, leather jacket and chunky black boots. 

How confident are you at choosing pieces for your figure? Would you find LMFLMF as useful as I did? 

Spot The Difference - Naomi

Beyond Retro Vintage Dress, Topshop Sequin Crop, c/o Boohoo Pearl Sunnies, Sequin Make Up Bag, c/o Deichmann Black Shoes

I thought it was about time I brought one of my favourite vintage pieces out to shoot and couldn't wait when Amy suggested doing a vintage polka dot post! This dress is one of my favourites and I absolutely love the vintage shape, pleats and the way it falls!

Polka dots is arguably one of the most common vintage prints with every vintage fanatic owning something spotty. I decided to layer my pearl high neck crop top underneath which I think gives it perfect neck detailing and more dressed up than a shirt. Accessories kept to a minimum and all about black and silver. These gorgeous pointy black shoes with silver tip detailing which are from Deichmann and were an absolute dream to wear! Super comfy and great value, perfect for this outfit! My make-up bag which is silver sequins went great for this dressed up look and my Boohoo pearl sunnies make the look fun and consistent!

How do you wear your polka dots?

Summer Blossom - Naomi

Topshop floral dress, H&M sleeveless shirt, Zara Necklace, Vintage Belt, Boohoo Clutch, Vintage Sunnies, Topshop Sandals 

Big florals are making a come back for A/W in rich autumnal colours and oversized prints! You don't have to tell us twice to sport big and clashing florals so we decided to try it out but in a summery spin on it! 

For this look I wore my Topshop floral dress which I love the shape of! It's so summery and flattering and I always feel super girly in it which I love for summer! I wore a sleeveless shirt underneath to smarten it up and put a different spin on the dress for a sophisticated summery look. I wore my favourite zara necklace which picked out the colours in the dress and a skinny vintage belt. 

A simple look but I felt summery and confident in the outfit. I can't wait for A/W where I can full on clashing florals and all the rich colours and layers. How bad is that, I'm longing for winter so I can start layering! After all winter is so more chic! 

Sports Day - Naomi

c/o Evie Hart Monochrome Baseball Jacket BUY HERE!, Primark White Rollneck, Topshop Premium Necklace, Ebay Diamond Sunnies, Miss Guided Runner Shorts, Zara Holographic Clutch, Topshop Boots, RI Black Hat

A clean monochrome sports look is something I am massively buying into at the moment. The mix between premium tailoring and sporty shapes make great clean outfits and look fresh and on trend. Since icons like Rita Ora made this look cool it wasn't look before the high street brought into bomber jackets, runner shorts and sporty influenced styles. 

The silky premium fabrics and tailored cuts make the look feel grown up but still have an edge. Key items like a premium jogger worn with a blazer and jersey tee allow this trend be on for everyone to adapt to their own wardrobe!

We felt a monochrome take on the modern trend would look clean and premium, I went for a monochrome baseball jacket from website Evie Hart. The silky material and sporty style made it perfect for this look buy it here! Roll neck jerseys are always fab for sporty looks and when Primark sell them for around £3 make sure you stock up! They are great for layering underneath things like in Amy's look. My Miss Guided PU runner shorts are always a hit for me and I added a netted sweater round the waist which also looks fab over the roll neck jersey! I went for statement accessories with this look, a statement Topshop premium necklace, diamond cut out sunnies, Zara holographic clutch and black hat for that ultimate sporty feel.

What are your thoughts on premium sports looks- will you be dressing for sports day this summer?

Club Tropicana - Amy

Lazy Oaf Fruit Tee, Topshop Scallop Peter Pan Collar Polka Dot Dress, Topshop Sunglasses, Topshop Belt, Vintage Bag via Notting Hill Market, Topshop Pop Socks, Topshop Anchor Boots

There's nothing wrong with taking a little inspiration for your wardrobe from the things around you and one of my favourite things about summer is pigging out on fresh fruit! 

This cropped, oversized  tee from Lazy Oaf is bursting with colour and fun, perfect for any hot summers day. I couldn't resist layering over a cute polka dot summers dress to brighten it up a bit but stuck with traditional Amy black leather accessories. 

These pop socks are a god send in the summer as they re thin enough to use as a fashion statement with cut out boots in the heat without your feet getting too hot and gross. I chose to pull the yellow out of the tee to keep the outfit extra summery!

Club Tropicana - Naomi

H&M Pineapple Top, H&M Pineapple Bag, Topshop Boutique Jeans, Primark Yellow Wedges, H&M Silver Chain, Primark White Sunnies

 

Finally the weather is looking more like summer and this means we can play around with the kitsch and summery product! We love cute prints and when discussing what post we could do next, fruit prints was something we just had to cover!

What better way to scream the sun is out than with a fruit salad tee or a pineapple crop top! Since designers like Jeremy Scott made food on clothes hot, the high street is full of fruit prints which add the playful and fun factor into this seasons heat wave! Why stick to plain summery clothing when this is the time to be wearing it loud and wearing it proud!

I went pineapple crazy after finding these perfect items in H&M. Pineapple print crop top and wicker pineapple bag were perfect for the look I wanted to achieve. You must know by now here at TSOP we never take ourselves or our outfit choices to seriously and always remember we are still young girls and love having fun! This post is exactly what we mean. If I can't wear a pineapple crop top at 23, then when can I wear a pineapple crop top?!

I decided to wear it with my new high waisted jeans by Topshop Boutique which I absoloutely LOVE!  The fit is perfect and the ripped knees are just enough for me. I feel so comfortable and confident in them and they look great with a crop top for summer. 

Accessorised with a silver chunky chain, white round sunnies and my bright yellow wedges which made the look super summery! The pineapple wicker bag added a touch of playfulness to the look and I feel it's a look Rihanna would be proud of!

Are you being a 'fruit fool' like Amy and myself this season?
