Best Dressed Wedding Guest | Summer Weddings with Farfetch

Hi lovely reader! I hope the summer is treating you well so far. Now, Saturday's in the summer can entail many different things, a lazy day by the pool, a BBQ with friends and family, or for many a wedding to attend! Last weekend I attended a quaint little wedding and I know some people spend what seems like their whole summers traveling around and attending different ceremonies. But, who doesn't love an excuse to get dressed up, have some fun with hair and makeup, take fantastic pictures and dance the night away? Something that I know people struggle with, especially if they have multiple weddings to attend is splurging on an outfit that they are only going to wear for one day. Well, lucky for us, Farfetch has put together an edit full of outfits to wear whilst watching the big "I Do's". As I have mentioned before, I am a big fan of this site, and this edit that I am able to share with you, is all about being the best dressed guest at a wedding. Whether it's a "Black Tie Affair" or a "Countryside Soiree" they have created some fabulous looks. When I saw these outfits, I immediately thought about how versatile all the pieces included are. I know it sounds cliche, but these are things you can actually wear again. I am obsessed with the Aquazzura espadrilles in the "Life's a Beach" section and they would go perfect with a simple t-shirt dress or jeans and a blouse. The Gianvuto Rossi flats featured in the picture below and in the "Countryside Coupling" are also amazing, I love the bow detail on the ankle. They could be worn year round with pretty much anything, I'm thinking a LBD or a midi skirt! So have a look and get some inspiration!   

Now that you've seen these lovely looks head on over the Farfetch to learn more!

Are you attending any weddings this summer? Which pieces are your favorite? Xx

Gossip Girl, Gyros, & Great Food | New York Photo Diary

Hello lovely reader! Today I wanted to share "Part 2" of my New York Photo Diary with you! It shows what I got up to starting around the second or third day and into the fourth day. By this point we felt as though we had somewhat mastered the subway system and were able to explore some new areas. If you haven't seen Part 1, "Chelsea, Cupcakes, and Challis", you can check it out here! Enjoy!

Grand Central Station

Gyro's in Bryant Park. I wish I had taken more pictures of this area. It was so picturesque with tables with umbrellas, places to play chess, and a gorgeous old carousel.

On this particular evening we went to a lovely Italian restaurant called Pietrasanta. All their pasta is homemade and it is located just outside of the Theater District which was where we were headed afterwards to see a show. It was delicious and it was evident that this pasta was fresh!

After dinner we headed over to the New Amsterdam Theater to see Aladdin. The theater was absolutely stunning and the show was fabulous! I would highly recommend it, the story is one that kids can recognize and understand but the jokes are actually more for the adults. They even add stuff relevant to today, I mean where else can you see Genie singing "Work" by Rihanna?

 

The Plaza Hotel

Eloise! Now some of you who have followed this blog for a while will now that I absolutely adore Eloise, the books, the movies, her attitude towards life, so getting to go to the Plaza and see this was pretty special for me.

Chelsea Market was one of my absolute favorite places and I would say it is a must visit. We went around lunch time and it was perfect to grab some fantastic Mexican food and ice cream for dessert. It was quite busy which I'm pretty sure it always is but the inside is just so cool and quirky.

Eleni's New York

LOS TACOS No. 1

Chicken Quesadillas, Chips, Guacamole, & Salsa = Well deserved after all the walking. This guacamole was some of the best I've had as well as the salsa. Again, everything tasted extremely fresh and the meat had great flavor.

Dessert Time at Chelsea Creamline

Strawberry Ice Cream

So that's Part 2! Have you been to any of these places? Are you craving all these foods just as much as I am now?? I'm not sure how many parts total there will be to this photo diary but it's looking like there will be at least 3 more, so keep an eye out for them! Xx

Cheeky Quote Tuesday

May Favorites | 2016

Hi lovely reader! Happy June!! It is time for summer to get into full swing and I don't know about you but I am ready. May was a pretty busy month, with school finishing up, exams, and then a trip to New York, I am ready for things to slow down a bit. I've got some new favorites to share with you and also some summer staples that I know I have mentioned in the past, everything from fashion to food, and even a guilty pleasure TV show or two!

Favorite Fashion Piece: Stylish Sneakers

These shoes are my absolute obsession for the month of May. If you have an Instagram or a Tumblr, you will have seen these Adidas Originals everywhere! I know for me, everyday I would get on social media I would see at least three posts where someone would have these minimalist loving monochrome obsessor's dream. I had wanted them for a while and when I got them the rush was fantastic because I had all the outfit ideas already planned out in my head. If you ask anyone who knows me, they know that I have a weakness for shoes, especially a cool pair of sneakers. I love being comfortable and still looking fab. 

As mentioned above, I love a good flat and for that matter a nice flatform as well. I always get lots of compliments when I where them and even more shock and awe when I say that I found them at Target....yes Target, and Target clearance for that matter. They can dress a look up or down depending on what they are paired with and who doesn't love a good sparkly shoe every now and then. It makes you feel like a kid again with the whimsy of it all!

Favorite Songs:
Dangerous Woman | Ariana Grande




fOoL fOr YoU | Zayn

Favorite Multi-Purpose Cosmetic Item: Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer

This moisturizer has worked out great for the summer so far. It has SPF 15 in it so if I know I am going to be outside, I make sure to put an even coat on my face and I have yet to get sunburnt while wearing it.

Favorite Guilty Pleasure TV Shows:

There Goes the Motherhood: Even though I am far far away from hopefully being a mother one day myself, I have gotten so into this show! I just find it super interesting to see how the different lifestyles of these ladies and their families. I also like it because it's not as "intense" as some of the other Bravo reality shows.

Rich Kids of Beverly Hills: Ok so this is polar opposite from the show above but I still freaking love it. I mentioned it in my June favorites last year and Season 2 is here with some new faces and the documentation of planning a wedding. Everyone on the show is so distinct and funny and yeah, guilty pleasure.

Favorite Apps:

PhotoWonder: It is a fantastic photo editing app

Snapchat (My two favorite filters are the flower crown and the star crown princess looking one, but the original one, not the one that gives you a beauty mark and makes your face look fuller)

Favorite Throwback: Disney Channel airing some of the 100 Disney Channel Original Movies

All the childhood throwbacks

What have been your favorites this month? Xx
