All Items c/o Boohoo: Lace Playsuit, Boutique Fringe Jacket, Cut Out Boot, Tier Drop Necklace
 Belt & Sunnies: Bloggers own 










All white is a look we have wanted to master since it became big for the season a few months back! A particularly hard trend to master but once mastered it creates a wonderful clean, slick and premium look for summer. Tonal dressing has influenced us at TSOP and other fashionistas alike. It allows you to play around with different textures and finishes in the tonal look you go for to add interest and detail but still remain all one colour.

Magazines and blogs have gone wild for all white dressing this summer and there is no suprise why! When one of our favourite online retailers Boohoo announced they were launching their own version of the all white craze we were first in line to get involved and style it up for a shoot in Brighton yesterday!

Invest in all white with the pieces you like, I often find with tonal dressing it can look messy and unwearable if you throw together items just for the colour. Question whether the items should be and could be worn together in a cool way rather than wearing them for the sake of it. All white creates a dressed up and premium look so items like blazers, trouser, shorts and shirts are perfect to create a 'high end' editorial look.

I went for a look that was clean yet still had that bohemian/festival influence that makes it me. The lace playsuit is gorgeous for summer and I found it a very flattering and comfy fit. I teamed it with the Cassie PU fringe biker jacket from the Boohoo Boutique range (which I have been obsessed with recently and now own 3 jackets from the collection!) The jacket was perfect for me- leather, fringing and all white for summer- this is one item thats at the front of my wardrobe for the season! The cut out boot is still a key player for the season and with a manageable heel and bang on trend style I felt this boot was perfect to finish of the look. The necklace also added that extra wow factor and the silver works great with the whiteness. I added in my own sunnies and a little white belt to compliment the playsuit.

We had a perfect day shooting in Brighton yesterday and what better way to shoot all white than on Brighton pier in the sun! We felt super confident and on trend in our outfits and definitely advise all of you TSOP readers to invest in the all white and try it for yourself! What do you guys think?

One of the chicest ways to look (and feel!) fresh this summer is an all white outfit. Not only does it brighten up your wardrobe, it will probably brighten up your mood as well! Colour blocking is the perfect opportunity to play with those gorgeous fabrics and textures around on the high street at the moment and nothing says slick statement like white. 

But don't just listen to us, Boohoo have just launched their white statement on Boohoo.com and with summery white pieces to fit into any wardrobe, there's no excuse to not jump on this fashion bandwagon, especially as it won't mean breaking the bank!

It's no secret I am a big fan or pinnies/dungarees for the warmer days and this smarter, culotte style playsuit filled a missing hole in my summer wardrobe next to my more casual denim dungarees. The sleek texture compliments the lace roll neck beautifully which creates a more subtle clash than I am used to sharing, but a statement clash none the less! I have been after some barely-there sandals for a while now and these are perfect!! I can't wait to wear them with cute socks but I wanted to keep this look really clean. I finished off with a soft blazer and round sunnies for a more adult look, but would love to try the same combination with a white leather jacket for something less smart.

Me and Naomi went on a little trip down to Brighton and felt the pier would be the perfect place to shoot this look! The white iconic decking and detailing worked so well with the (almost) blue skies and beach to really show you how summery this look can feel.

What do you think of the all white trend? My only concern was not spilling anything down my front but thankfully, it seems I've grown up alongside my wardrobe.

Feather Hearts - Amy

Look 1 - 'Bad News Babes' tee c/o Feather Hearts, Topshop Crochet Collar Swing Blouse, Topshop High Neck Stripe Bodycon Dress, H&M Hat, H&M Sunglasses, Primark Rucksack, Converse via Schuh

Look 2 - 'Bad News Babes' tee c/o Feather Hearts, Boohoo Blazer, Topshop Skull Leggings, Topshop Skull Necklace, Boohoo Clutch, Topshop Aubrey Boots










I've always loved a good statement tee - from band tees to iconic films in my teens to more fashionable slogan tees now I'm a tiny bit more of a grown up, I just can't get enough. Your classic, slightly oversized shape is the most versatile item to have in your wardrobe and a good statement on the front can really turn heads and show off what you're all about! Feather Hearts seem to have it spot on and have all styles, shapes and slogans to suit every fashion conscious (or not!) person out there and are fast becoming one of my favourite lesser know brands.

To show just how versatile these tees can be, we both opted to do a more casual/daytime outfit and a smarter/nighttime look. I then mashed the 2 looks together to go out to dinner straight afterwards which proves anything goes with this tee!

For my day time look, I wanted to stick to a monochrome colour palette but use subtle details on the coordination for interest without taking the emphasis off the slogan tee. I think I look like a very 21st century Wednesday Addams (ha) with the cute crochet collar and bow and the striped bodycon dress compliments the oversized nice perfectly. I stuck to all black accessories, again so the tee was the main focus! and kept to converse to cas the outfit down

For my night time look, I wanted another statement item to go with the tee and these Topshop leggings seemed perfect. To play up the leggings I went for a skull necklace, and chunkier boots but to give it a bit more of a chic and lighter finish threw my white Boohoo blazer over the top!

What do you think of Feather Hearts and how would you wear this tee?

Topshop Floral Crochet Dress, Nasty Gal Daisy Denim Jacket, Topshop Daisy Necklace, Primark Black Clutch, Topshop Frilly Socks, Topshop Wedge Sandals 








Daisies was an obvious post for us as its something we have both newly introduced into our wardrobes. Daisy prints are bigger than ever in bold statement prints like my jacket or in a more subtle way in Amy's burnout tee. We love it on everything and it's so right for the summer and feeling super feminine. I like the mix of daisy prints with textures like lace but then adding denim or leather to toughen the look up. Go for that contrast with this look-  add a frilly sock with a black boot for that girly with an edge feel. My favourite daisy prints are the vintage inspired black with white daisies, urban outfitters stock loads of this in cute dresses which look amazing with big chunky black boots and a denim jacket! 

I wore my Topshop crochet floral dress which I fall in love with every year. The detailing of the floral crochet looks so beautiful on and I haven't seen one like it since buying
It. I wanted to show off the sleeves so wore my Nasty Gal daisy denim jacket which you have seen as a co ord in a previous post but the sleeves zip off allowing me to wear it as a gilet perfect for summer and not to ruin the look. I accessorised it with one of my new favourite necklaces my daisy chain and a black clutch. Don't forget the little details like the frilly yellow sock poking out of a chunky sandal. I didn't want to make the look too girly so added the tougher pieces like the black clutch, black shoes and black denim gilet. I also went for a statement lip colour- which I have not stopped wearing since I brought it! I love a deep purple lipstick and find it is a bit different than your standard pink and red and looks great with dark hair! 

What are your thoughts on the daisy hype this summer... Will you be pushing daisies like TSOP?

One of my favourite trends of this summer (and quite a few previously) has been the daisy craze. There is something about this cute little flower that fashion followers just can't get enough of in the warmer weather and we're no exception. The best thing is, you know it'll come back around again next Spring Summer, so buying into this trend will always be an investment rather than a fad, which is most definitely my go-to reason when I'm deciding if I really need new items or not!

The main piece in this outfit is the tee - 3 trends rolled up into one with pure white, burnout effect and daisy's being huge this SS. I bought this tee in an M/L as I wanted to wear it really oversized for this outfit but am looking forward to throwing it over dresses and shirts, tucking it into cute skirts or even using it as a cover up if it is ever warm enough for a bikini. 

I also wanted to use the most of the see through-ness of the burnout effect so wanted a patterned (but not too mad) blouse to go underneath so you got a hint of the pattern underneath and a cute collar to go with the tee. Where the top half has got a lot going on, I wanted to keep the bottom half pretty simple to opted for my boutique silk shorts for texture.

To really tie in the daisy theme, this necklace was perfect! and the yellow frill ankle socks give that extra  hit of yellow and look cute and girly, but not too cute and girly with a heavy boot and a biker.

Are you a fan of any daisy items? When the high street is offering summer dresses, motif tees, socks and daisy sunglasses! I'm sure there's something for everyone to love and create that cute feminine feeling to those summery outfits :)

We recently found Feather Hearts on Instagram and loved their brave and different slogans they use on their tees! Tees rock slogans including 'Bad News Babes, Prowlin, See You In Hell and Misfit. They are stocked by one of our favourite stores Urban Outfitters and have become a hit with bloggers and fashionistas alike. We couldn't wait to jump  at the chance to style these up so decided to do 2 looks with our tees one smarter and one more casual to show how easy it is to wear them! We even loved them so much that we both wore them out for dinner after!

Nothing is more us than a cool tee that we can make our own and as you can see by our shots our true personality  and style come through in our looks!  I styled the Prowlin Black Vest which you can buy online at Urban Outfitters.
I love the shape of it with the deep cut under arms and oversized style and it looked great with everything I tried on.

For my first smarter look I wore it with my Topshop black and white tile print trousers, which I have been wanting to shoot for ages but was waiting for the right outfit! I found it looked perfect with the Prowlin Tee, Premium leather jacket and high black sandals. I accessorised it with Black Sunglasses, Transparent clutch and my vintage silver belt. Clean yet interesting!

For my 2nd more casual look I sported a more boho feel and wore it with my vintage denim shorts, layered with a mesh top underneath and fringe waistcoat. Accessorised with a tan belt, turquoise necklace, oversized floppy hat and my favourite sunnies!

I could not be more pleased with both Amy's and my looks! When we get a style challenge its exciting and fun and we hope you enjoy the outcome!

Naomi's Week In Style



I haven't wrote a week in style in a long time....well over a week!! I don't know whether the lack in exciting product or the lack in funds has played part in this, but my wantlist is well underway for my  holiday next week which is my favourite thing to buy for!

I am going away to Barcelona for a week to do the Off Sonar parties and of course the outfit planning takes a lot of preparation. I will be doing a week in Barcelona diary where I will share with you my week of outfits and hopefully a good tan :-) 

Here are some summer essentials that I can't wait to get in my wardrobe!

1. Topshop Daisy Plastic Mac 

Transparent and daisies could you possibly get more on trend for the season? This mac is super cute and perfect for the festival season! Wear with denim shorts, black boots and rucksack for a ready to go festival look that's cool and practical. 

2. Topshop Banana Print Denim Jacket & Skirt Co-ord 

Mental but amazing! This is a must for my summer wardrobe and so on trend with the 50s inspired Palm trends that are so big right now! Would look great worn together but can also see the skirt rocked with a bikini, hat and denim gilet on holiday! Go bananas this summer and do invest!

3. ASOS Crochet Top

Perfect addition for the summer season and can be worn for a festival look with denim short and Parka or with a maxi skirt and layered jewellery. I'm a big fan or crochet and the wonderful girly texture which always looks great in summer.

4. Ebay Diamond Sunglasses 

I have seen these in various magazines recently and been looking out for a cheaper pair! As always EBay saves the day and I found these for around £7! Since starting the blog my sunglasses collection has hit and all time high and I am constantly looking out for a cool new styles! Perfect for making a statement this summer!

5. Topshop Premium Silver Chunky Ribbon Chain

I love this necklace- it's oversized and over the top design make a clean statement on any outfit. It adds drama yet it still feels clean and on trend. I love big statement necklaces and think this would fit into my wardrobe perfectly.

6. ASOS Orange Embroidered Backpack

Perfect for summer festivals and holidays being practical and cool. I love the bright orange colour, fringing and design on- it makes it feel very bohemian and festival chic. Backpacks are always a great buy and always are money well spent. 

7. ASOS Marketplace Ethnic Elephant Wrap Skirt

Since Coachella I have been heavily inspired by the style worn at this years festival. I saw a girl in a black dress which is nearly exactly the same print as the skirt I have brought, so you can imagine my excitement when I came across this on ASOS marketplace for £15! I can't wait to wear it at Bestival with my little crochet top, boots and a parka! A great find in my eyes! 

8. Vintage Tan Festival Bag 

I love cute little vintage bags for summer and came across this one on eBay for £10 it will look great with summer boho outfits and perfect to hold my summer essentials! 

9. Topshop White Aladin Gladiator Boots

I love these sandals as they are half way between a boot and a sandal. I have never been a fan of summer shoes so these are a perfect alternative for me! They will look great for holiday and also great for festivals!
