Navy Blue Monochrome

Hey beautiful people! 
So there's something about structured shoulders that really appeals to me, and for that reason, this peplum top is one of my favourites. Not only do I love the cut of the top, but I also love the stencil detail on the the front and back, the exposed zip detail, and that its navy blue, (which is a color I don't own alot of). I decided to create a monochrome look by pairing it with dark, navy, skinny jeans from Old Navy. These are the Rockstar jeans (in petite), and are the only jeans I wear! They are perfect! The fit, the length, the inseam, they stretch, and it flatters my waist to hips ratio! I can honestly say that I enjoy wearing jeans again because of these particular ones! For my accessories, I decided on my navy blue perspex clutch and this statement pearl choker, (very similar to the Zara one) which has become a popular accessory piece amongst style bloggers. I got mine from Ebay though for next to nothing! To complete the look, I had to add a pop of color, so I wore my neon yellow heels, which i think complimented the navy blue quite nicely!

Polka Dots

Hey guys, hope you are all well!
So I've had this black and white polka dot skater dress for quite a few years now, but its still one of my favourites, (and its still fits me)! I love that its cute and flirty dress, and the low, exposed back detail.
So this time round, I styled it with my black and silver studded heels and my metallic silver clutch. And although the day I wore this, I had no clue what I wanted to wear, I think it came together in the end :-)

Lace on Lace

Hey lovelies,
Hope your week has been going well so far! I've been doing reports for school as we are approaching the end of Semester one, so it has been keeping me very busy!
But anyway, just wanted to come by quickly and do this outfit post here, featuring probably one of my favourite outfits to date! This outfit came together so much better than I anticipated! 
Now, maybe its because I don't usually wear all white, or the fact that it was all lace, or that it got me excited about my wedding dress (which I've starting looking into...), but yeah it definitely worked! And when I posted the picture on Instagram and Facebook everyone loved it! Actually alot of people thought it was a dress, but its in fact a top and skirt, which together was less than 50 bucks!! I know right!! :-) Anyway, simplicity was definitely the key for this look!
