Blazers...

Blazers are the perfect cool jacket with jeans. You can style it up with accesorizes or keep it plain and formal. You can dress down a dress or dress up a blouse, you can have them in allsorts of colours like bright pinks or blues, or stick to classy blacks and greys. They're just so chic, let me show you what i mean...♥

Miranda Kerr wearing a soft pink dinner jacket blazer, similar style can be found at Warehouse



The sexy tuxedo blazer goes well with jeans and a t-shirt for a casual laid back look or teamed with leggings, shorts or trousers for a classy formal look for a night out.
To get a similar look to Katie Holmes, grab the blazer from Zara.

Lace...

Sorry I've been MIA this week, started back at College and not had any time free! Can not wait till summer!
And this summer i will be wearing...lace. I love it! I think it is so feminine, so simple and can make anything elegant and more glamorous. Not many lace has been across the runways for this Spring/Summer collection but I have definitely seen it around the shops and It's definitely on my wish list! Here is a quick look at what I mean and what I will be looking for this season ♥
Is it just me or is black lace sexy? I think it's because it is used alot on lingerie. 
This beautiful top can be found here

This is a top that is actually in my 'wishlist' pile on Mango.com. Its a light pink with crochet/lace materical and a drop back; simple, pretty and girly. Get it before me here.

 The perfect lightweight item this summer; white lace skirt or shorts. It is the garnment where you could just slip on with a cardigan and you've made an easy, cute outfit. This one is from H&M (but I also adore a pair of lace shorts or the scallop cut ones that big right now.)

 
Red! It's not a colour you think of when you picture lace but this bright and beautiful dress is just stunning in this colour- in white i think i would have overlooked it! I wear a lot of red, I think it's my blonde hair that compliments the colour so it's one of my prefered colour in dresses, my prom dress was red, my christmas dresses are red and i have a couple short-at-front-long-at-back dresses. Grab this one before it goes; it's pure sophisticaiton.

Vintage...

After finding a new blog love, i have fallen in love with Vintage styling.
I discovered the blog 'Rockstar Diaries' by Naomi Davis and her husband, it is a family blog of their life from when they first got engaged, 4/5years ago, to modern day where they have a house, a dog and their second baby on the way. It is not focused on the fashion but her life in the USA, however as she is repeatedly taking photos of her and her family you get to see her clothes she wears and her easy going comfortable look which i thoroughly adore!

I've always had blouses as they're easy to wear with leggings, their smart for work and they're comfortable! So as the vintage look contains lost of blouses i found that they're alot girlier with frills, bows and polko dots- they are on my wishlist. 
The downside to this discovery is that many department stores have the new SS12 range in which contains alot of paisley, plain bold vest tops and cropped tops, don't have alot of vintage-style blouses and cardigans. It seems I will have to search hard for something special. Here's a quick look of what I'm searching for right now. I already found a gorgeous vintage cardigan in H&M last week which reminds me so much of the Chanel style in black and white- but i love the bubblegum pink (seen below). Let me know what you think of the style ♥
