I Am Wearing : 
Floppy Hat - Primark
Oriental Print Blazer - c/o SheInside 
Black T-shirt - Primark
Ripped Knee Jeans - Asos
Studded Heels - c/o Oasap
Chain Bag - St Johns Market Liverpool
So I have been crushing on the Valentino Rockstud heels for a VERY long time (but could never afford them) so when I saw these look a likes on Oasap for a mere £35 I had to buy them!

I was not disappointed they are sooooo cute - although I will say if you are going to purchase a pair go a size up - they are made in China so are very much on the small side!

Happy Hump Day Peeps

Summer is upon us and festival season is kicking off - with Glastonbury firmly on my mind (30 days and counting), and with this beautiful Mystree waistcoat called the Coachella Crochet Vest, it would be rude not to add a festival vibe to this outfit!

Hands up who is festival-ing it up this summer?

I need to get outfit planning for Glasto pretty soon! I am so excited - this summer is going to be a good one!

Happy Bank Holiday Monday Folks

I know what you are thinking - and YES I am wearing yet another full skirt! It's just one of my many fashion addictions - when I find a shape that suits me I tend to get it in every colour!

This weekend I have been busy planning my summer holidays - we are doing a 10 day driving tour around northern Europe so I am all excited about the crazy things I am going to see and do this summer - holiday planning is my fav thing to do - dreaming of summer is always easier when the sun is shining outside the window.

What are you up to this weekend?

Do you have any tips for things to do and see in Paris, Brussels, Cologne, Amsterdam and Bruges?

I would LOVE to hear from you

XOXO
Astra

Yup I am wearing sequins during the day again - it's my new thing! 2014 is gonna be known as that year I wore a LOT of sequins ;-)

Here are my tips for wearing sequins during the day :

Dress down your sequins with a sports lux edge, add trainers or a pair of slip ons and a cute sweatshirt with your sequinned skirts like I did here.

Wear your sequinned top with a pair of distressed denim boyfriend jeans and a bomber for that "thrown together" look - see this outfit for inspiration

Want to wear that sequinned prom dress again but in a totally different way? Wear it with your black leather biker jacket and a pair of black biker boots - seen on me here

In all outfits keep your colours complimentary and have fun with your fabrics!

I would LOVE to see your daywear sequin pics - send me links or email them over!

Have a great week beauties

XOXO
