snake boots | topshop 

so, todays post is a mini one as I just wanted to share my latest purchase. before I dive into my annual winter coat hunt (yes I'm determined to find 'the one' this year) I wanted to get myself some boots. 

my main requirements this season is block heels and texture- either snake effect or 70's suede. I'm super pleased block heels are back, as let's face it I'm pretty lazy so it takes a comfy heel to drag me away from trainers. I did a little dance when I found these topshop boots as they're a great dupe of the KG ones and a fraction of the price.. they're nearly out of stock online but definitely worth keeping an eye out for. the green version is still available and I've linked all my favourite 70's inspired high street footwear below if any of you are a-hunting for some too..

happy shopping!

oh em geee the weather has been so up and down this week! I've gone from hiding under umbrellas during thunderstorms to whacking out my bikini in an attempt to get my tan on in the garden.. crazy.

I'm pretty keen to start wearing some of my summer wardrobe so when I woke up to sunshine last week I took these faux leather shorts from girls on film out for a whirl! I wanted these to be quite wearable (read.. not skintight/bum cheek peekage) I often find shorts hard to find as I'm between sizes but to my delight they're pretty darn perfect! I paired them with my new mesh top as I liked the mix of textures (I'm so glad I nabbed this asos one because the zara one I wanted sold out before I could get it!) the black shopper was a topshop sale buy, I wasn't sure if I even liked it at first but the semi transparent perspex won me over ..well that and the fact I can fit my laptop inside!

these leopard print daniel pumps are just gorgeous in the flesh, seriously babin'. I know you've probably twigged I'm a real flats/converse kinda girl so I'm always looking for cool slip ons to wear.. these are going to be an absolute staple for me with my skinnies, hurrah!

happy bank holiday guys!

back soon
