That big yellow thing in the sky

Alas I have finished my second year at Uni and the crazy stressful period of getting all my work done is over for a few months. At the moment we are having a heat wave and I think it's fair to say the whole of the country is in a more sun-induced happy mood. It was my birthday last week so it was great to be able to have a few drinks in the sun with friends, I always seem to be lucky with the weather on my birthday!
I personally always find summer fashion a bit more challenging then in winter, as I just generally prefer what's out there in the shops in the colder months, and I don't always feel comfortable flashing loads of pale skin (woes of not tanning in the sun). So I found it was time to reach for one of my favourite pieces to wear in the sun; the maxi. 
I have seen them worn in so many different ways that I love, such as layering and colour blocking. I personally don't love my legs so I find them quite easy and comfortable to throw on but still quite versatile at the same time. I decided to layer this old Topshop t-shirt over the top of my plain black racer back maxi and quite like how the look turned out.

Lets hope the sun stays this way! (definitely going to be wearing boots and a jumper this time next week) 

Spring lovin'

So, it's been a while since I last posted but my bloggers inspiration seemed to lacked a little over winter unfortunately! But, the weathers warming up and I'm desperate to get back writing about things I love, and new trends that I am definitely going to be investing in this spring!
After spotting 3.1 Phillip Lim's Spring/summer pastel collection I can safely say I adore this look! Now I'm not a typical girly girl when it comes to dressing, and woe and behold 70% of my wardrobe is black, but I think pastels are look so god when they're worn right, and just the right amount of girly colour, si?
Topshop and ASOS have come up with some crackers for this look, and I couldn't resist added some stuff to my pretend 'I'm definitely going to be able to afford all this' basket.

ASOS cropped lilac shirt £24 (sale)

ASOS Pastel skinny belt - £6

ASOS lace mint skater dress  - £36 (sale)

TOPSHOP moto hot pant shorts - £32

TOPSHOP mint green frill ankle socks - £3.50

 I don't personally own anything in these lovely shades yet but something in mint green and pastel lilac is definitely on my next shopping agenda. Oh, summer 2012, hurrrrrry!

LBD

Im forever one to stick to a certain style/shape of dress if i find one that I absolutely love, but aren't we all? Eek I'm green from head to toe with envy if i meet someone who suits EVERY style out there (I'm sure there is though, damn them)
As I've grown older into my teen years I've started to see more what suits me, and found my own favourite ways to dress things up or down. When its comes to an LBD I actually own a few different styles, but find myself going back to a basic cheap H&M little number, that I purchased a year or two ago for around £15/£20. I've also found different ways to wear it which I hope you'll appreciate (I apologise in advance for the horrifically poserific photos and gosh rubbish quality, definitely a newbie!)...

Plain and simple

Blazer geek

Leather Look

Fur Luxe

Chiffon and relaxed

Thinking about it the possibilites are endless with a sleek little black number, and it definitely doesnt have to be an break-the-bank-expensive piece!

Nuevo

Hola! So I've been meaning to do this for ages, and reading over other fabulous blogs has given me a tad of motivation as I love reading about other people's styles and whats going on in their life so I though, why not?..
I'm Danielle, although my blog name originates from one of the many crazy ways I've seen my name spelt in the past! I'm nineteen and studying Journalism in Sheffield. I have a little bit of love for fashion and pretty little things. I'm going to try and make this a mash up of fashion, current obsessesions and the odd bit of idiocy that usually finds a way into my life, well actually, always. Thanks for stopping by, and happy reading xoxox
