Spring inspired look continued

Although I am on holiday I am still continuing my spring looks. This time I am focusing on bags for spring. I usually purchase one inexpensive bag every year and either go for a straw bag or wooden bag. Below are my purchases from TK maxx the last two years which I still rock on a regular.

I have put an outfit together around my newest addition to my bag collection.

Some style tips when getting your spring bag. I am sure you all know about the cult Gaia bag that every blogger owns. I want this bag, I need it ?. It is a bit pricy at $120 for the original bag but if it lasts you 3 summers and 3 springs, it has worked and is worth it. See some of my favourite bloggers below that have rocked this bag like a boss. link to Cult Gaia bag

These bags are on my personal wish list. I just love these bags but I am patient and shall wait

Eugenia Kim bag above is my ultimate wish list. I am so in love. Although it doesn't have much space to put all your beach essentials or shopping in, we all have to make sacrifices in life don't we, if this is my cross, I will carry it lawd ?.

Munn bag above is also petite but beautiful. I love the bow detail.

Last on my wishlist is this little gem from Moda Operandi So back to earth and when I say earth I mean high street affordable bags

This minimalist Glamorous bag for £31 is certainly a keeper

Swim spot bag for £40

Matalan have a small range that are very fashionable in various sizes and styles . My outfit details Shoes and skirt - River Island Top-Missguided Bag- ebay Until next time buttercups ?

One thing you need for spring

Florals, florals and more florals. I have stocked up on my favourites and I will mix and match them to death I tell you, to death!!!! Lol. I got this skirt from Marks and Spencer last summer and it has served me. And I paired it with an off shoulder stripe shirt, florals and stripe are always a match made in heaven

Straw hat similar here Off shoulder shirt from boohoo M&S skirt (old) Bag from TK maxx Below are some of my fav high street pieces

Floral River Island trousers

River Island floral top

River Island Floral skirt

I love this sheer dress from River Island too

This missguided dress is so easy, beautiful soft colours with frills and soft flowers. I am in love

Not all florals are equal. All my purchases are currently leaning towards Japanese looking prints. I am so feeling love for this dress not only with the Japanese print but also the kimono sleeves and belt.

Who can resist wide leg trousers. These babies from Marks and Spencer are just the right colour ?. Now let me take you to a secret place where men are trying to wear florals y'all. Did the bible not warn of such atrocities? Men in women's clothing? ?. Asos has some seriously floral fantastic pieces for men. This made me angry at first, like sue worthy anger. But I calmed down when I realised that we could wear mens clothing and not bat an eyelid.

Can you see how delicious these print trousers are ?

ASOS mens print trousers So buttercups, head on to the shops and swap your winter knits for floral magic. Until next time ?

You guessed it. MUSTARD yellow. Worris all this. I am gravitated to everything mustard at the moment and had to recently return a pair of trousers because I had something so similar in the same colour. With all the mustard in my wardrobe, I can wear this colour for two weeks without repeating an outfit. That is alot of mustard. My trousers are from zara (in the sale) and top from asos which I bought 152 years ago. But don't worry I have my favourite mustard pieces for you to shop below.

Colour lover’s guide to monochrome

Ok all colour lovers everywhere, as your ultimate queen of Colourville and all things colourststic , I come to you with good news. We can wear monochrome guys, we can and I am here to tell you how. I often see people on instagram with zero colour on their feed hash tagging #allblackerrthang #monochromemagic #greyisthenewblack #minimalistlife. I get it, i really do, that's what you like and that's fine but all I see is #WhatHasLifeDoneToYou #WhatHappenedToYourChildhood #WhoHurtYou #WhereYourSoulAt lol. I joke oh before you send your queen after me (Janelle Monea) ?. After several days of deliberation, in every attempt not to get my soul get soaked into monochrome hell faya, I thought I have to make this fun. So this is what I did. I got all textures of black known to man (silky, patent, cotton, lasercut) and paired it up with nude pumps and clutch. I had to do something to distract myself. Patent trousers made me feel 100 bucks, I just loved the biker details on it and of course my laser cut duster just gave it a more playful fun look. Check me out below
