Best Buys

With my holiday to the sunshine only a few weeks away I've been hunting for some cute holiday outfits and managed to pick up some gorgeous things this weekend! I really don't need anything new however it's always nice to treat yourself to some nice, new holiday things plus the things I picked up were too good a bargain to pass up!!

Here's some of the cute things I picked up:-

H&M shorts and top ~ I was instantly drawn to the vibrant pink shade of this top and you can never go wrong with animal print so though these pale blush pink shorts were just adorable. This top looks amazing tucked into these high-waisted shorts and will be a good day or night time outfit for my holiday. 
 
Zara platform shoes ~ I tried these shoes on ages ago and at the time I decided not to get them. As usual, a few weeks passed by and I wished I had got them. I had put the shoes to the back of my mind until I popped into Zara on Friday at lunchtime and found the last pair in my size and even better, to my delight, they were half price...............result!
I'm not sure how high these shoes are but lets just say know I know what it's like to be a few inches taller and the same height as my gorgeous fiancee!! These skyscrapers went out for a test run last night at a friends engagement party and I'm delighted to say my feet survived through a whole night of throwing some moves down on the dance floor and not an injury was had....excellent!

H&M Sandals ~ I saw these today and had to have them. This picture really doesn't do these sandals justice. These are comfy, stylish and are in such a fun bright purple. If the purple is too daring for you, they also come in a classic black. I'll have fun wearing my new bright yellow "mimosa" Chanel nail polish with these this summer!


I highly recommend you head into H&M soon to check out the summer collections. They have gorgeous maxi dresses, shorts, bikini's..............you name it, they have it and at great prices too!

Feeling Blue?

Put on these bright blue beauties and not only will they lift your mood, they'll lift you around 5" taller!!

Christian Louboutin Daffodil suede platform pumps ...............amazing!!!!!!!!

The Perfect Structured Coat

What a stunning coat on Cheryl Cole, I love this!

Orange Hermes Birkin bag.........just perfect!

Kourtney Kardashian was given this beautiful Hermes Birkin bag by her mum for her birthday.
This trademark Hermes orange shade is timeless and my, what a fantastic gift to get for your birthday!!

I wouldn't say no to this bag however if I was getting one I would probably go for the classic chocolate brown Birkin bag with the gold hardware (It may take me years and years to save up for one though!!)
 

My Summer Essentials

Check out this gorgeous bikini set I just got from H&M:

 

The set cost under £20..............oh I do love a bargain! 
I cannot wait to wear this on holiday with my new Primark £4 hat (my hat is a cross between a trilby hat and a floppy hat so it mixes the on trend trilby style with the practical floppy style to protect me from the sun).

My mum also just informed me that she has just managed to get me the Chanel summer 2011 nail colour 'Mimosa',the perfect  must have banana yellow shade to complete  my beach outfit!

 

Head down to both H&M and Primark now to grab your summer staple bargains! 

H&M bikini's are all under £20 and Primark has some cute bikinis for under £6.

Primark also has great reversible beach towels for £7 and flipflops for £1.50 so you really can get all your summer holiday essentials at prices that won't break the bank!
