velvet world dress : c/o mee mee fedora: topshop backpack: topshop studded boots: old eeeeeep I finally have some velvet in my wardrobe! every season tartan and velvet seem to be a staple in autumn/winter trends and I massively regretted not investing in a velvet dress last season! this little number is from the new arrivals at meemee and it was velvet & sheer winner at first sight.. it had a hint of gothic fairytale but still looked wearable. I'm not a huge fan of big sheer panels but subtle ones get the thumbs up for me; I'll mostly wear this dress layered up with jumpers, tights and chunky boots so it'll be quite versatile this winter (no doubt It'll pop up on here again soon!)  I'm already looking forward to layering up again (and probably eating my way into hibernation) is that wrong? anyone else excited to whip out the knits? caroline x shop the look:

topi tea dress: motel fedora: topshop selena bag: la moda martie shoes: topshop chunky silver band: kukee some brands are just damn dangerous for my bank balance!  motel is one of those websites I go out of my way to avoid browsing due to the sheer amount of temptation on offer, I am however fatally weak (I guess some things are just too pretty to avoid goddamn it) I finally ordered this dress after a few days of ummming and ahhhing and I'm so glad I did;  it's the perfect little summer dress and really comfortable to wear (now I just have to resist the other three dresses I spotted...) I also picked up this oversized selena bag from la moda which was a steal at £16 and could quite literally carry a small rhino (ok I exaggerate a little but it's amazingly roomy) I loved the padlock and tassel detail and I wanted a big white summer bag for holiday so it ticked all the boxes. they have some beauties in stock the minute and I'm seriously tempted to go back for another styl...

white racer front bodycon dress: c/o little mistress fedora: topshop necklace: primark bag: vintage sandals: new look yikes I feel quite grown up in this outfit! it's not often I stray away from my casual threads but I love a good bodycon dress, this one is from little mistress who have oodles of niceness on offer.  racer front and clean lines = classic staple for my wardrobe (the words classic and staple will usually sway me towards most items, I suspect it's old age kicking in) they also have some adorable separates like this cut out chiffon panel top *swoon* one to add to the bookmark bar!  the dress itself is amazing quality, fully lined (no pesky peek a boo underwear) it's one of those little numbers that makes you feel super feminine and a little minxy (well until I ruin the illusion by spilling a drink on myself..)  my other love is my new primark necklace and silver chunky bands from kukee, I'm fast becoming a silver convert and can't stop browsing jewelle...

I love prints.. especially of the palm tree variety! two minutes after opening this meemee  dress, I was on a beach, mojito in hand ready for my summer holiday (you can't blame a girl for dreaming...) as soon as the rain makes itself scarce this little beauty is going to be a staple in my sunny day dress collection. they have some really nice items in at the minute, this lace  playsuit  is  already making my debit card nervous so if you haven't added them to your shopping bookmarks you should. you may notice my new hat; this topshop fedora has been on my wishlist for about two months (yep I caved, I'm weak) now I can pretend to be indiana jones from the comfort of my own bedroom... that's my weekend plans sorted. the belt is from forever 21 and is a really good dupe of the urban outfitters versions so I figured I was saving myself some money with this purchase...wink. sugarhill boutique tropical seas dress: c/o  meemee fedora:  topshop belt: forever 21...
