BEST CELEB FASHION WEEK STYLE 2013

Long time no blog eek! Hopefully I'm going to get back into the swing of things soon. Anyway since it has been LFW I thought I might do a post on my favourite street styles.

I think my favourite has to be the dungarees with the leather jacket. I really love the whole dungarees trend at the moment, I would love to be able to pull off some short dungarees for the summer.

Let me know which one you think is the best! x

FESTIVAL LOOKS

Summer is here which means festival season is in full swing. I love the effortless style of festival wear. I love oversized t-shirts/vests with high waisted Levi shorts and some sort of vintage biker boots. I'm loving beanie hats/caps this year aswell! I really want to go to Leeds festival this year but I'm not sure I can afford it! Grim. Click the images for credit :) Rachel x

NEXT

1. Next Plait Sandals
2. Next Short Print Dress

Since I'm going to Ibiza tomorrow, I thought it would be great to get some cool summer clothes with the gift voucher I recieved from Next! I think the tribal/aztec print on this beachy dress is perfect for the beach this year. I don't think I will take the sandals off either, as they are easy to get on and look pretty cool as well!

I can't wait until tomorrow, I will be jetting off to Ibiza to work for a while (who knows how long I will last!) but yeah I'm excited and a little scared if I'm honest! Anyway I hope everyone had a good weekend :)

COACHELLA STYLE

I've chosen some of my favourite looks from Coachella festival. Its one festival I want to go to before I'm 25! It looks amazing. My favourite look is Zoe Kravitz, who is in the first image. I think her style is so effortlessly cool, I love everything about her outfits!

I may have to have a cheeky buy of a similar dress for the summer! x

OUTFIT POST

Tops - New Look, here & here
Sunglasses - New Look
Shorts - eBay
Belt - Vintage
Necklace - Forever 21

I know I don't usually do outfit posts but I kindly received a New Look voucher! I bought these lovely tops and these awesome sunglasses. I love the striped crop as I think it goes great with high-waisted shorts or American apparel disco pants. The nautical trend always seems to be in around summer! The other sleeveless grey is exactly my style and I think its perfect for festivals (if its sunny!)

I'm currently doing my dissertation and I've totally left it until last minute so I am massively stressed! I've had zero social life this past week!

P.S I'm a total amateur at taking photos of myself so please ignore the awkward poses and the moody face!

NEWLOOK 7 DRESSES

7 Dresses 7 Days is a competition Newlook are doing, where you can simply win a dress for each day of the week. I don't normally shop at Newlook however I was looking for the dresses I would buy if I won (fingers crossed) and I came across some which I thought would be amazing for the summer!

I have picked four of my favourites which you can see below. You can enter here :)

I hope everyone in the UK is enjoying the sun!

ACID WASH

I'm currently avoiding doing my dissertation work at all costs so I'm doing a long overdue blog post instead!

At the moment I love acid wash. I'm especially LOVING pastel acid wash jeans, I really want to get my hands on some when I see some decent ones in stock. I saw some it Topshop today in a blue/green colour and some pink ones, I don't know why I didn't buy them to be honest!

BIRTHDAY OUTFIT

It was my big 21st birthday yesterday, so me and my friends all went out on the Saturday night to celebrate. I was contemplating getting American Apparel disco pants for a while so I finally caved in and bought some, they were off eBay so they were a little bit cheaper!

I teamed my disco pants with a pink button up top from a charity shop and some absolutely amazing heels from Miss Selfridge which were going to be £75 but hello 20% student discount ;)

Check out below for some pictures from the night out! I suppose I'm going to have to become an adult now I'm 21!

STRIPED LEGGINGS

I'm debating with myself whether to get a pair of these, I'm scared they are too 'out there'. Also I'm not sure I'm cool enough to pull them off!

But they are only about £9 on eBay so I might just risk getting some and hope they look good! You can get some here

What do you think? Yay or nay?

PASTELS

Fame Kills is back! Had a long break there due to lots of uni deadlines. I'm quite excited to finish uni as I have such a massive workload! Only 4 more months! When I finish, I'm going to Ibiza for the summer (or as long as I can afford) which will be amazing then it is off to look for a grown up job!

Right so, PASTEL COLOURS guys! I feel they are going to be all over the place this spring and summer, a lot of the high street shops have pastels already in. Personally I would combine a pastel colour with something a little harder, like a nice pastel coloured vest with maybe some black high waisted leather shorts? Something like that anyway!

CHRISTMAS WANTS

The holidays for winter celebrations are finally here and this year seems to have gone by so quickly! I think I've grown up so much this year... bring on 2012 when I will be leaving uni (scary) and going into the big bad world of work! Eeek!

Below are some things I've spotted online that I would love to buy when I get some money after Christmas. In the new year, I'm definitely going to go charity shopping/eBay hunting a lot more, most of my favourite clothes are vintage whereas if I buy something from Topshop or something I will usually only wear it a few times and then be bored of it!

Have a good weekend everyone!

VELVET

This post is well overdue, I just have loads and loads of uni work that I am practically drowning in!

Anyway, I love velvet, it is basically everywhere at the moment. I really love the leggings that are in Topshop and velvet playsuits! Even though I couldn't afford it I bought a velvet dress the other day! Inspiration below!

Tell me what you guys think about it!

CREEPERS

Creepers are a shoe you either love or hate. I think people with a more girly style probably won't wear them but for me I really like them. If I had the money to splash out I would definitely buy some (some with a generally tiny platform though). You could wear them with skinnies, leggings or tights. They such an awesome winter shoe!

Take a look at some style inspiration with the creeper shoes below! Tell me if you like them!

WINE/BLOOD RED

Major colour trend this winter is wine/blood red. I love it, I've already bought a top and a pork pie hat in this colour! I think it's a really warm yet stylish colour for the winter. Just a simple piece of your outfit with this colour would make it on trend for the winter. I found some great examples of it below for inspiration!

P.s Dissertation and loads of uni work is taking up all of my time argh!

Love Rachel x

HIGH WAISTED JEANS

At the moment I am loving the kind of early 90's look of the high waisted skinny jeans. To be honest I don't think I could pull them off myself but I still love the look! I would try and get some vintage Levis ones, I think they always look the best! Pictures below.

Also (totally unrelated), I went to see Bon Iver last night, I was right at the front and I got some amazing videos, was really the best band I've ever seen live!
