Skirt Alert: One summer skirt, 3 ways!

Totally random and unrelated; I've had no water since 5:30am this morning... The Water Company has done a major boo boo and done some serious damage to one of the pipes... Crikey! We were all promised water by 8:30am... which hasn't happened yet so I thought I'd get this post together...

I have a love hate relationship with skirts, so I don't wear or buy them that often. The last skirt I bought was this cute little tiered ruffle number from Topshop below... 2 maybe 3 years ago, which I team with a simple black vest and if it's a bit chilly, I'll throw on a boyfriend blazer and an old pair of biker style boots. BUT... I did pick up a cute skirt from Zara the other day. Shock horror!

I don't often post personal style snaps, I kinda loathe any sort of camera action - plus for some reason, I only manage to pull silly faces.
But since some of you wanted to know how i'll be working that flared skater skirt of mine (a bargain at 17.99€)... Here's a peek! Sadly for me and my self-timer, these shots are a bit wonky (& grainy) but at least you get the idea!

Take one Zara Skirt, Wear 3 ways

From Left-right:

• Denim Shirt: Mr. Perseus', it was huuuuge! Mock Croc patent belt: Sample, Studded heels: Zara
  
• Chunky Turquoise necklace: Primark, Sleeveless Blouson tunic shirt (the rest is hidden underneath the skirt): Zara, Studded belt: Kookai, Hideous scar on shin: Surfing, Fuchsia Bow peep toes: New Look
• Black Vest: Gift - oversized so it looks baggy, Bow belt: House of Fraser, Ruffle T-bar platforms: Topshop

Sometimes a look doesn't work as well for me, especially knowing that I could be teaming it with something else way better. When I moved to Greece, I left some bits and pieces back in London, which I often forget about... But just knowing..., slightly bugs me! Anyhow...

Have a fabulous, super sunny weekend!!!

Flirty Skirty

I don't really do skirts, I'm more of a frocks, playsuit or shorts kinda gal, but recently i've seen a few stylish ladies do their flirty skirty thang, such as Leigh of My Glamourology (who by the way designs the most coolest jewellery ever!!!) as seen here who donned a super girly outfit & also Emily of Cupcakes and Cashmere as seen here.

I'd seen the perfect skirt a short while ago but never bought it, but as I was skimming the rails at Zara again, I came across the same skirt again. It must be fate! I had to get it, clearly it was calling my name, plus it was a bit of a bargain too!

Super girly cute or what?
Skirt by Zara 17.99 euros only!!!

I'll have to share my other super cool purchase I picked up once i've built it! Zara home, you are a legend!

Skirt-tastic summer

Sorry peeps, I'm afraid i wasn't much of a happy bunny this morning, I was just having one of those hectic days (with lots of errands to run but short on time) and needed to vent it all out.

Anyhow, all that sunshine and running about, (well lots of walking without car), means that a girl deserves a bit of treat. So what do i do? Devour and finish off half a tub ice-cream... These 'Daily Pleasure, SCANDAL!' pots are huge by normal standards and really delicious too. It's the first time i've tried the range, but the Vanilla Secrets flavour simply rocks - i'm digging the scattering of caramelized pecans and slithers of caramel. De-lish!
What's flavours tickle your tastebuds?

So on that yummy note I leave you with some summery
skirt-tastic action, enjoy!
