The stud debut...

Here is what I wore for a few drinks with some friends the other night. I used the event to debut my lovely studded pumps from the boyfriend. My outfit is actually pretty plain and simple but after a long day at work I just wanted to wear something comfy.
T-shirt - Topshop
Jeans - Topshop

To be honest I think the studded pumps give the outfit a bit of edge and they make a simple outfit so much better. 
I wore them for a good few hours and they are honestly the comfiest shoes. I have quite wide feet and find some pumps really narrow and painful to wear for long periods of time but these were a dream. I would love to get a nude pair. My next quest is a studded bag... preferably the Alexander Wang number here, dream!

Dinner Date...

Last night I went out for dinner with my boyfriend and his mum. We went to a gorgeous mexican restaurant in Southampton called La Cantina. They do amazing cocktails and brilliant food. I had a really yummy chimichanga. A chimichanga is basically a deep fried tortilla, this was then stuffed with mexican spicy cheese, potatoes, chorizo, chicken and salsa etc. It was delicious, and I would highly recommend going their to eat.


Here is a sneak peak at what I wore out to dinner. The jeans are new and I love them, they are from Forever 21 and cost £12.95. Absolute bargain. Most cheap jeans stretch and lose their shape after about 5 minutes of wear, but these stayed in shape the whole evening. My favourite aspect of them is mainly the colour, it gives what could be a boring denim outfit a little bit of a kick. I teamed them with my all time favourite T shirt from Topshop - £18 and a boyfriend style blazer which is really old from Primark, I don't remember the exact price but I think it was around £12. Shoe wise, I wore my moccasin pumps.

So just a quick post but hope you like it anyway. Again feel free to follow me if you like how I write etc :)

Summer Trousers...

Urban Outfitters have started their summer sale. After a little browse online I decided not to risk buying trousers from the internet incase they didn't fit and then losing out on them. So I popped into town to have a little mooch around. Again this is another bad move because as soon as I see something reduced I think i need to have it whether I will wear it or not, whether it fits or not and sometimes even whether I really like it or not. The latter does not happen very often and usually it is over something that costs a pound.

However on this trip I fell in love with these BDG Pigment Dye Ankle Cigarette Jeans in what they class as red. My camera makes them look very orange but I would describe them as salmon pink. Reduced from £45 to £22 a really good buy. They have a nice amount of stretch to the material so you can sit down comfortably and at ankle length, they are very versatile. You can roll them up, tuck them into boots or wear them as they are with heels or flats. Unlike some other jeans on the high street they are made from a strong denim so there no chance of the belt loop holes coming loose or holes from general wear. Overall I am really happy with them and would buy them at full retail price.
I wore this outfit for a meal out
I teamed my new jeans with a brown leather belt from ASOS, I can't remember how much I bought it for and my slouchy see-through shirt from River Island which I previously blogged about.
Moccasin Flats - Urban Outfitters - Can't remember price
I wore flat shoes for my meal out as I preferred the slightly more casual look. These moccasin flats from UO are my absolute favourite shoes. They are comfortable and go with everything so to me they are priceless.

Jeans - Urban Outfitters - £22
Bangles - various
Hair
I wore my hair in a really high up do. The bun is huge which I love. To achieve this I used a ballerina donut which i placed around a pony tail and then tucked the hair underneath all the way around. My hair tends to be quite shiny and sloppy which isn't good for putting my hair up so I have to set it with lots of hair spray, I then loosed it off a little so it doesn't look perfect.
