Boho
Who's ready for summer? *waves hand enthusiastically*
I absolutely adore this outfit and I would genuinely wear it everyday and obviously a lot of the items can be used all year round like the boots and the skirts. I think this outfit would be perfect for festivals but you might want to trade in the leather boots for a pair of wellies!
1) Black Crochet Hem Kimono ~ £19.99
NEW LOOK
This also comes in pink and adds a real floaty feel to the look. I love the delicate lace detail and the way the kimono drapes.
2) Cream Daisy Lace Hanky Hem Crop Top (phew!) ~ £14.99
NEW LOOK
This top comes in a range of gorgeous colours too including pink and mint green. I love the subtlety to the lace detail and the cut of the top which gives it a relaxed, flowy look. I tend to opt for high-waisted skirts with crop tops so you only have a bit of skin showing.
3) Striped Skater Skirt ~ £14.99
NEW LOOK
This skirt is perfect for summer but can also be worn in the winter with tights. The pattern is gorgeous and I love the earthy colour scheme.
4) Manilla Lace Up Boot ~ £85
OFFICE
Just a tad expensive but these are definitely a staple piece to see you through the year! They are real leather for will be more hard-wearing
5) Aztec Vintage Chain Bracelet ~ £18
ROCK N ROSE
I love the look of this bracelet as it ties in all of the neutral, earthy colours in the outfit. Rock N Rose sell some really pretty, yet simple, jewellery pieces.

Summer Home ware
So...I know from my blog's title you may be led to believe that I will only babble about fashion, however today my babbling will take a different path. Home ware. Crazy, I know!
These adorable products are all you need to spruce up your home or bedroom ready for Summer. All of the items are pretty basic, yet can make a massive difference to a room.
photos are from polyvore-I do not own them
1) Things box ~ £3 ~ Primark
I love the basic wood design and, of course, the price! This is perfect for storing all the miscellaneous things in your room that have no assigned place.
2) Owl jar ~ £10 ~ BHS
This is an adorable, yet simple, way to store things in a room like bits of jewellery or even lipsticks
3) Reserved cushion ~ £6 ~ Primark
Primark does it again: beautiful home ware and a beautiful price! This cushion is perfect for saving your favourite spot on the sofa!
4) Japanese-style bowl ~ £2.95 ~ dotcomgiftshop
If you are a regular to my blog, you'll know how I'm a fan of this online shop. Their products are cute with a vintage touch and not to mention reasonable. This bowl is known as a 'dipping bowl' but there are bigger versions and other patterns to choose from. I think this would be perfect for storing rings or bracelets that you wear every day to make them accessible in the mornings.
5) Handled mason jar ~ £9.99 (pack of four) ~ drinkstuff
I have developed a bit of a love for mason jars. Being a Pinterest user, you can barely escape them! You can use them to serve cold drinks in the summer or, alternatively as a vase for flowers. You can buy four for £9.99 from the drinkstuff website so you can do a bit of both!
6) Desk organiser ~ £2.95 ~ dotcomgiftshop
I love the colour scheme of this pencil pot, the colours are muted and almost pastel-like, giving it a summery look. This is perfect for those people who tend to have their pens scattered all over the place!
7) Skurar plant pot ~ £3 ~ IKEA
Many bloggers have these pots to organise their homes. I love the frill detail around the edge of the pot and I think that it is the perfect way to store pens or make up brushes. This style of pot comes in a variety of different sizes-so stock up because this is the perfect excuse to get organised!
8) Crochet blanket ~ £75 ~ Cath Kidston
This blanket is beautiful and the pastel colours are perfect for summer. It's pricey but gorgeous!
Thank you for reading!
