Well I had a fantastic weekend!

So much fun was had by my bestie and I on Saturday. I haven’t laughed so much in a long time and we got up to the most ridiculous things (don’t drink and tweet kids).

Highlights included S singing down the telephone to my husband and me eating chips and dip off her wooden floor (we is classy birds).

Good times but THANK GOD we only meet up every few months!!

This was my outfit, I wanted to keep it pretty casual as we were having lunch and then heading to a nearby pub for drinks.

  • Lace Crop Top – Dunnes £3/ £5 (can’t recall) sale
  • Pastel Pink Hanky Hem Button Vest – New Look £8
  • Denim Shorts – New Look £10 sale
  • Black ribbon threaded pumps – Faith (past season)

I was determined to incorporate a little of the underwear as outwear trend, so I paired an over-sized vest with a lace crop top and undid the first few buttons to expose some bra/ boobage. I have to admit I wasn’t sure about it but I think the dense lace pattern keep it from being too tarty…… maybe….. not

Make-up was a real rush job, basically LM Tinted Moisturiser, Nars Outlaw Blush and Urban Decay “Mushroom” e/s from the Alice Palette <3

Lips were a combination of two Rituals products that I’m totally in love with and will do a more in depth review of shortly.

What did you get up this weekend? Any high jinx? xox

You look great! I think the lace top looks fab – especially with a looser top over it…I think you can always get away with something sexy if you team it with more casual pieces :) x

Thanks Jen, yeah I think you're right actually. It balances ok because the actual outfit is quite tomboyish xx

That is a brilliant outfit…comfy, but sexy and with nothing too complicated to deal with when you're drunk either! Might have to steal the whole idea shamelessly and pass it off as my own…

You look fantastic, really like the combination of the lace and nude top plus your hair looks amazing x

Thanks Kerry, I'm still in shock that I'm managing to wear nudes and not look like Nelly the Elephant. I think a little fake tan helps lots! xxx

Your drunk tweets made me laugh on Saturday and actually I was secretly a bit jealous that you could drunk-text from an iPhone..I just can't do it :)

Lovely outfit and SO sensible to have flats on for a boozy night out. I never learn and end up walking home barefoot carrying my heels!

Looking forward to hearing about those Rituals products. Its one of those shops lovely to just be in, let alone buy anything!
