Hey Peeps

So moneysupermarket.com are running their “Passion For Fashion” competition again, how fabulous are they? I’ve loved seeing everyone else’s entries and it’s inspired me to put my own looks together. This has been especially fun because of my shopping ban…..I’m thinking that if by some miracle I actually won I would legitimately be allowed to buy my winning look…..huzzah! So without further ado I bring you…..

Beach/Holiday

ASOS Bikinin Top £14, ASOS Bikini Bottoms £7, Crown & Glory Whole Lotta Rosia Crown £20, ASOS Shorts £25,
I Love Shoes Wedges £47 and Ted Baker Shirt £79

I adore this outfit! One of my favourite Disney movies is The Little Mermaid and when I saw this cover up from Ted Baker I fell in love. I think it would look great combined with this deep blue bikini and I’m loving ASOS for swimwear at the moment. Bikinis have always been a bit of a problem for me because I need such different sizes top and bottom, being able to buy them separately is perfect. I’ve been lusting after this rose crown since Crown & Glory released it but I was never quite sure how I would style it until now and with these hot pants and wedges I’d be happy to go from the beach to the bar and feel very stylish.

Casual

Pretty Polly Secret Sock Tights £10, In Love With Fashion Dress £40, New Look Crop Cardigan £9.99, Knotting Elle Shappire Set £20, Kurt Geiger Trainers £75

I fell in love with these sparkly trainers when Small Girl Type Creature and I stumbled upon them whilst in the Covent Garden Kurt Geiger, I’m not usually a trainers fan but these are gorgeous. When I planned this outfit I started with them and worked my way up! I do already own these tights and I love them, the “sock” detail add’s a little something more to an outfit than just plain black opaques would. The dress is beautiful, I think the tie detail at the front is really unusual and oh so flattering and the print is gorgeous. I’ve teamed it with this little crop cardigan for Spring but you could just as easily throw on a chunky knit and look just as stylish in the colder months. Finally I picked an arm party I’ve been eyeing for ages from Knotting Elle, sparkly goodness to satisfy the magpie in me!

Party

Argento Pearl Bracelet £10, Argento Pearl Earrings £10, Eclectic Eccentric Athena Crown £18.50, Trashy Diva Honey at Kittenish Behaviour £100, Aldo Prue High Heels £44.98

This outfit was so much fun to put together; I knew I wanted to style the party ensemble around the Athena crown from Eclectic Eccentric because it’s another piece I’ve been lusting over with no idea how I’d actually wear it! The Trashy Diva Honey dress is a classic shape which I love in this beautiful red satin fabric. It will look great with the pearl jewellery and of course some more sparkly shoes (magpie alert, magpie alert!).

There you go, my three looks. What would you put together with £200?
