Holiday outfits

This time last week I was sunning myself in 5* Egyptian luxury. Right now I can hear the bass from V festival a couple of miles away and it's almost raining. *sigh*

Nevertheless, we had a lovely holiday and feel very refreshed. I thought I'd share some of my evening outfits with you. Unfortnuately, I didn't manange to photograph them all.

Top: Cameo Rose @ New Look, Shorts: River Island, Pumps: Primark

Dress: Missguided

Dress: Parisian @ New Look, Shoes: Crystal customised New Look courts

I also wore these coral shorts from Missguided with a white crop top, but didn't get a piccy

I wore an outfit almost identical to this, with this River Island aztec skirt from ASOS and a black crop top from New Look

The end of the holiday is bitter sweet. It is so good to go home and see Alfie, but I still wish I was in the 40 degree sun relaxing by the pool. Fingers crossed for some more sun here in Essex over the next few days, although the weather people don't seem very hopeful.

A summer fav - Dipped hem skirts and dresses

Right now I'm loving the dipped hem style dresses and skirts. For me, these are a summer essential. Very adaptable as either day or evening wear, can be dressed up or down by adding different shoes and accessories.

 

The two pictured above are both from New Look's "Parisian" range. I ended up buying the dress and not the skirt, and ever since I've regretted not getting it! It is now out of stock and not currently on their website, so annoying.

Love @ Topshop are also doing some great dipped hem pieces, and I'm keeping an eye on a few on eBay to expand my summer wardrobe. With all this miserable British weather, a girl needs a bit of retail therapy to lift the mood.
