Holiday Style

Heya...

I have just got back from an exciting holiday in Vietnam! It was really quite amazing  and an incredible photography opportunity for me, as I love taking photos and there were so many interesting sights and quirky places to capture. It was also lovely to plan and enjoy wearing some summery outfits during the evening, so I though I would share my favourite ones with you guys.

Outfit 1- 60s Vibes

Top - Topshop

Skirt - Textile Federation at Urban Outfitters

Bag - Zadig et Voltaire

Black wedges - Office

I absolutely love this bright colourful skirt as it is just so summery and swishy as you walk around. I paired it with a white turtleneck to embrace the swinging 60s/boho 70s style then wore my black wedges and bag to keep the skirt the focus of the outfit. This is a perfect summer evening look but also great for daytime, just swap out the wedges for some flat sandals and you're good to go!

Outfit 2 - Summer Monochrome

Dress - Bershka

Sandals - Topshop

Headband - Topshop

Bag - Zadig et Voltaire

Earrings - Vintage

I have never been big into monochrome though I feel this dress is my solution to this trend I do my best to avoid! I hate the boring black and white clothes that don't express my style but with this dress, accessorised by the flowery headband and vintage earrings I feel far more myself. I wore my white sandals for a beachy vibe, but the leather bag gives it a modern edge,

Outfit 3 - Tropical Vibes 

Top - Topshop

Button up cord skirt - Topshop

This skirt is probably one of my fave skirts for summer as it works with almost anything! The patterned top pairs well and creates a very beachy, summery and almost tropical vibe to this outfit which makes it great for a summer's day.

Outfit 4 - Boho Vibes

Top - Vintage

Skirt - Boohoo

Sandals - Topshop

Earring - Vintage

You may recognise this top from a previous outfit post but this time I went for a more boho look with a long grey maxi skirt. It's a lovely outfit for the evening and looks perfect with sandals and big hoop earrings.

I hope u are all enjoying Summer,

Vietnamese Style

Heya...

I hope you are all enjoying a lovely sumer holiday! I am currently sitting inside while the tropical rain of Vietnam pours down. Apparently it's the rainy season, though I don't seem to have got the memo as most of my clothes are shorts and t-shirts. However It is very hot and the local vietnamese people wear a variety of things to combat the high humidity. On our tour of Hanoi I saw two women dressed up in traditional Vietnamese clothing and thought I would share their almost oriental style with you!

The lovely flowered patterns are beautifully summery and the long flowing fabric keeps them cool. I probably wouldn't choose theses colours myself however they look so perfect, surrounded by the greenery of the many trees in the city.

Here are a few snaps from Hanoi:

I hope you enjoyed a taste of Vietnamese street style! 

Love,

Summer Outfits

Heya...

Summertime weather is finally upon us and I have been loving it! It's been almost tropical here in London so outfits have consisted solely of skirts and shorts accompanied by a variety of summery tops in a multitude of bright colours and patterns. I don't know about you guys but when the sun is shining it makes me happy and I love wearing things to represent my mood. Therefore, I thought I would talk you through two outfits I have been loving recently, one daytime and another slightly more elegant one for the evening.

Daytime:

Halter neck Top - Beyond Retro

Button Up Cord Skirt - Topshop

I love this outfit as the halter neck is just so summery and the pattern is so cute. The button up cord skirt has been a wardrobe staple for me so far this summer, as it pairs with almost anything and makes any outfit that bit more interesting.

Evening:

Black Crochet Trim top - Urban Outfitters

Crochet Shorts - Pepe Jeans

Necklace - Urban Outfitters

This outfit is perfect for an evening occasion as it's sophisticated but fun and summery due to the crochet detailing which creates a boho summer vibe. When worn with black wedges it is the ultimate evening look, although also looks great with sliders if you are going to be dancing all night!

I hope you enjoyed these summer looks,

Isla
