Making My Way

Hello my lovelies, now, I know I said the next post would be the BEAUTYBOX for this season but I really haven't had the time because I, have just landed my first ever job in a bridal shop! I am so excited... I'll be surrounded by fashion- the beautiful gowns, the daintiest, prettiest tiaras and frills in every colour! I mean, okay, to start with it's just two hours a week every friday, but I'm only fifteen and it's something else to add to my CV; one step closer to my dreams of being a fashion journalist! Plus one of the main things I'll be doing is the shop's blog! BONUS! I'm so excited, so I thought I'd share it with you and I promise I'll get that BEAUTYBOX done SOON!
Love you guys,
Lulu

Hello my lovelies!
So, I was thinking up new ideas for the blog and I thought it would be interesting for both you and me to take a few things from my wardrobe that will be perfect for the coming spring!
I love spring- bring out the pastels and give me some florals in spring and you have a happy bunny! Get it? No? Oh ok…

 

FASHION BOX#1
Spring Edition


 









Number One: Beautiful Scarlet Red Maxi-Skirt





So, I might just be the biggest hypocrite in the world… Yes, I do love my pastels but you can’t go wrong with a luscious deep red, can you? I have to admit I’d usually save my bright reds and pinks for summer, but, I’m using the perfect excuse… which is that in GLAMOUR, (magazine), it says reds and bright pinks are in this spring… and we have to do what GLAMOUR tell us, don’t we?! Yes.

I found this gorgeous red maxi skirt in Primark and I just had to buy it, plus, at just £10 it was absolute bargain in my eyes!

Anyway, let me know what you think in the comments!





Number Two: Fabulous Floral Playsuit
Number Three: Blushing Pink Cropped Cardigan





Sticking to my guns this time, or should I say florals!
I love this little playsuit; the shorts are a little too short; the floral pattern is so beautiful though. Plus, I have an obsession with all things strapless!
I paired this pretty playsuit with a cropped blushing pink cardigan. I think it really balances out the colours on the playsuit and makes them ‘POP’! I especially love the pattern, (below).
I purchased this playsuit from Bank for around £30 I think- I must admit it was a while back but they always do cute little things like this playsuit in there, I’m sure! The cropped cardigan is from Primark- snatched off the sale rack! Ooh, I love my sales!

















Number Four: Coral/Pink Peter pan Collared Dress






Now I love my peter pan collars and this is no exception! I love, love, love it! The design on the collar is exquisite and I love the fit of the dress, although I do usually pair this with a belt around my waist to create a more defined shape and little black pumps to finish the look. Devine.


Number Five: Mint Green/Black/Cream Leaf Print Maxi Dress.
Number Six: Batwing Cream Knit Cardigan





Now I would usually put this in the summer FASHION BOX but I couldn’t resist the mint ‘greenness’! I love my pastels, as I’ve already said and I love this dress. It’s loose fitting and very flattering, perfect for when your sipping lemonade, (or maybe something a little stronger), at those romantic picnics with that special someone this spring!
The next thing in the FASHION BOX this season is this gorgeous, cream, batwing cardigan I have paired with the maxi dress above. It just gives a lovely, slouchy, relaxed, feeling to the outfit and calms things down for springtime. Plus, again, the knit is just so precious!
 


Number Seven: Navy Bow Flats



I love my heels but my flats love me back whereas my heels tend to punish me after a night on the town. So they’ve won their way into the spring box. I love these little flats because they are just so cute and I am in love with bows- whether they are on shoes; in your hair; anywhere, I just love them. I also love the ribbed effect on the toe and the way they fit your foot perfectly.


Number Eight: White Floral Hotpants




Now, these are like my true prince charming in the form of fabric! I know I have said this a lot, but I LOVE these the most! They are denim, but they are so comfy unlike so many pairs of denim shorts I’ve had before that have rubbed and just been generally uncomfortable to sit down in. These saved my bum from that agony and I will be eternally grateful. Also, have you seen the print! It is so elegant and beautiful. I knew I had to have them the moment I saw them in New Look!
 
 
 

Well that’s that for the FASHION BOX Spring Edition of 2013… You probably think I’m barking mad as I’ve been telling you how beautiful and elegant these pieces are and my shorts are my prince charming, but I don’t literally think that when I’m walking round the shopping centre, I’m not that mad… I just have a passion for fashion…
 

Okay, let me know if you enjoyed this post PLEASE! :D

I'd love to hear what you think too, thanks for reading!

Welcome to The Fashion Oracle | By YoursTrulie

 Hello Truliie-Ohs!
(Okay, so I'm not great at coming up with nicknames... what shall I call you?)


Fashion is my escape.
When I’m down, I turn to this shiny, colourful world and it excites me.  It pushes me to want more from life and it keeps me alive like my heart does by beating.

If you asked me to, I could design a piece of clothing with any inspiration you gave to me, whether it is a box of Malteasers or a giant cloud in the sky!  I am inspired by all that is around me - from the wind in the trees to the candy in my pick-and-mix.
Here's a collage I made focusing on makeup looks and clothing items/outfits.
All images found on google.com/images and tumblr. Put together by myself, using Serif DrawplusX5.

I love pictures and photographs more than words… in fact the pictures show me the words. I put pictures together on a blank page and it instantly lifts my spirits and tells me a story of heartbreak and lust; happiness and joy; sadness and gloom; all the stories you find in all of your favourite books thrown together- it’s like a silent symphony of melodies.

 

That is what I hope to capture this in my blog… In my words… In my photos and my pictures… In my life.
 
Thanks for Reading,
Lulu
