The LWD (Little White Dress)

I am obsessed with white. It's just such a happy and pure colour (albeit sometimes a bit clinical if overdone). It's the most perfect colour for summer besides all the other cheery pastels, stripes, florals and what not, and if fact, probably my favourite to wear with a tan. After summer, white normally slips away into the deep abyss of my forgetfulness, bearing in mind 1)my ghostly pale skin and 2) the horrible weather up here (note to self: Scottish rain and white DO NOT mix well).  

I've been looking around for a white dress to wear casually to work but one that I could also wear out if I wanted to. I really don't feel like my body would physically fit into a tighter, more fitted dress (holidays are cruel), and genuinely prefer a more boxy, t-shirt style fit. I mean you can always cinch it in with a pretty belt later, right? Basically, a boxy fit is: 1)more flattering 2)more comfortable 3)more versatile.

I'm actually in a really dire need of a new dress or 2 or 3 or 4, and think I might cave in and buy 1+3 from the first picture (both very pretty Missguided numbers). My only problem is I hate ordering online, and the whole bother of waiting for it, returning things if they don't fit and so on *sighs* ; I might just take the plunge and do it this time or I might regret not buying these two! I have so much on this coming week and a spot of shopping should do the trick of easing me into it .... any excuse is good enough for new clothes! Toodles ♡

Primark & Topshop Haul

I'm absolutely loving primark at the moment. I have a love and hate relatioship with it, but as long as you look properly there is always something for everyone. They have so many cute jumpers in just now and they're comparable to Topshop or other more expensive high-end shops. I looove oversized jumpers, while I am normally a regular UK size 8, when I want something oversized I go for Size 14.

Topshop has a sale on just now, and I managed to bag some things I've been wanting to buy. The sailor skirt, I ALMOST bought about a week ago but they didn't have my size so I gave up. However my size came up in the sale ♥











In order of pictures:
* (tempted to call this acid-wash but it's not) grey oversized top from Primark £4
* Topshop navy sailor skirt (preciously £30), down to £18
* Topshop top/dress ( i will wear as a dress ) previously £12, now £8
* Primark nude pink thick woolen jumper (sooo cosy!) £11
* Primark PVC lace up pumps, cute floral interior, £8
* Primark Navy floral bodycon dress (looks so shapeless, but lovely on) £13

I also picked up some jewellery but I'll dedicate a whole new post to that ♥
