Spring Outfits!

I bought a few new outfits in April so decided to share some of my outfits here. I never used to wear dresses or skirts, it's hard to feel comfortable wearing them because I am very uncomfortable with my body.
Wearing tights with them helps my confidence, and is also suited to the unpredictable British weather. During Summer, when it is warmer, I will try to brave these outfits without tights.
I don't spend a lot of money on clothes and I don't shop in obscure places. I don't even know what clothes look good together! I just wear what I feel like wearing. Whether that is a Disney t-shirt and coloured jeans or a dress and flower crown. If I chose my outfit and felt happy with it, that is good enough for me.
 I bought this dress specifically for Easter - Kirsty made an easter egg hunt for me, we baked cakes, and I thought it would be nice to dress up for the day.
  •  The dress is from Debenhams Blue Cross Sale. £19.20
  •  The black tights are from Tesco (100 denier) £4
  •  The trainers are grey Converse £30
  •  The necklace is from a store that closed down. We have a lot of tangled jewellery from there and Kirsty managed to untangle this one for me. Free
  •  The flower crown is from Leeds Festival a few years ago £4
  •  The nail varnish is Roll in the Grass - Rimmel London £2.99
  •  I'm also wearing a wooden star sign bracelet from the tangled jewellery Free
  •  and a Lego Friends watch £15 
             Total Outfit Cost =£45.19 (not inc. £30 shoes)

I am wearing make-up that Kirsty chose. The lipstick is by Jack Wills, and the (very light) eyeshadow is from Sleek's Vintage Romance Palette.

 This is my current favourite outfit. I bought the skirt and tights the day before and we were staying in a hotel so it was just by complete chance that I decided to put this outfit together and I loved it.
  • The Cinderella t-shirt is from Disney at George, Asda £7
  • The skirt is from Debenhams Blue Cross Sale £7.50
  • The grey tights are from Tesco (100 denier) £2
  • The trainers are grey Converse £30
  • The bag is from Accessorize and I use it to keep my camera, eyeliner, lip balm and mints in £14
  • The sunglasses are from Primark £1
  • The two keyrings on my bag are from Manchester Christmas Markets £7
               Total Outfit Cost = £38.50 (not inc. £30 shoes)

You can't see my face in these photos but I am wearing Smoky grey eyeliner by Rimmel. And Spun Sugar Shine Aurora lip balm from Claires.

 I've had this t-shirt for a few years but I bought the skirt a few days ago. I really like polka dot skirts and really like the way it looks with the t-shirt. The outfit was quite neutral so I decided to wear bright trainers with it to make it look more my style.
  • The t-shirt is from Junk Food at Truffle Shuffle £22
  • I'm wearing a vest from Primark under the T-shirt £2
  • The skirt is from Primark £4
  • The tights are from Tesco (100 denier) £4
  • The shoes are pink sequin Converse £45
  • I'm wearing a wooden star sign bracelet Free
              Total Outfit Cost = £32 (not inc. £45 shoes)

 I'm not wearing any make up here because I've lost my Sleek Au-Naturel palette and would have used light eyeshadow. We also were staying away from home and I wish I had remembered to take my pink lipstick to wear.

Date Night - Cinema

Kirsty and I went to see Disney's live action remake of Cinderella today. We are huge Disney fans and have been looking forward to this for a while.
We dressed up to watch it so I took photos of our outfits and accessories.

 The film was really good. I loved it so much. It was true to the original Brothers Grimm storyline with a little Disney Magic. The set designs were amazing, there was so much detail in each scene. There were parts of the house, for example, that were fully decorated with such small objects and only seen as a distant corner. You can tell that a lot of work went into the scenery for this film. And the costumes for every single character were beautiful. I'm sure you've seen posters of Cinderella's dress or glass slipper, they look even more glamorous on screen!
I definitely recommend you go and see it in the cinema or when it comes out on DVD, it's a really magical film that makes you feel all warm and exciteable.
