Swim Wear This Summer!

I L.O.V.E. a beautiful bikini or cozzie. They can be however you want them to be, and whilst on holiday this year in Greece, I intend to sit by a pool outside our Villa all day and get a tan with a big pair of sunglasses, some chunky bracelets, red lippy, a good book, and an outrageous bikini or swimming costume. Now, being the swimmer that I am, (I swim 8 to 10 hours a week with my club competitively) I have at least 12 swimming costumes i wear for training, but to be honest, i don't want to have awful tan lines and a tanned hole on my back where my cozzie finishes. So, after browsing around a bit and looking for some bikinis, i did find some fab ones. I felt the need for a statement bikini after watching The Only Way Is Essex, when Mark had the pool party. I loved Chloe Simms' over the top flower bikini. Even though she probably wouldn't have gone in the pool at all, she looked great and it made her boobs also look bigger than they already were. It would be a good bikini if you were quite flat chested too! (saying it bluntly )

I love Amy's bikini (left) as it really compliments her hair and skin. 

Chloe's bikini (central) is nice, but i think it doesn't really suit her big boobs, it's a bit slaggy. BUT, it is really cool!
Mary Fowler is one of the only more natural girls on TOWIE, and this black cut out swimming costume is so slimming and looks great on her with those big earrings and lovely necklace!

I know a lot of these cutouts are black, but they are so brilliant that they don't need to be brightly coloured or incredibly intricate. Believe me, if you're wearing this, you're going to be bigger that the birthday girl at her own birthday!

I really like this Asos cut-out swimsuit. I love the ruffles on the top, and black is a slimming colour which is good. I don't think it's all that practical for actually swimming, but i have to say you would definitely get some compliments in it! At £14 it's also really cheap!

I really like this Primark Bikini, it's really nice. I love the button detailing and the fact that the top is more like a bra, and a bit more supportive. The most brilliant thing is...It's only £7! score!

I also think that if you wanted to do some style icon imitation, this bikini is a lot like chloe simm's from TOWIE's bikini. 

Obviously, not everyone has such a good figure, but then not everyone has hundreds of pounds to spend on surgery. Chloe seems lovely on the show, but i think she would appeal to a lot more people if she was a little more classy. 

Summer is Coming!

Oh yes. The days that so many people wait for! Ahhh the joys of summer. The flowers are out, the sun SOMETIMES shows its' face through thick English clouds, and i have a tan! Which is always a bonus i think. I have put together a compilation of all my favourite summer clothing that i have seen online, from different websites i have found. The brilliant thing about this is that, us, normal people who don't have trillions of pounds to spend can afford them! However, i have put some designer ones in too to show the difference. As much as i love designer clothes, being a student, i simply cannot afford to splash the cash for a new swimming costume every six months! I hope you like this :) I L.O.V.E jumpsuits. And it has to be said, i think nautical and floral is back in!

 The Hollister Nautical dress... at £40 it's not too expensive.

The H&M nautical dress... much cheaper than the Hollister one at £19.99

                                                      YAY! Primark, possibly my all time fave shop. This dress i think is lovely and would also be good in the winter with a cardi, leggings and uggs.

                                                        This Chanel Jumpsuit is great, and i love it with his little jacket, but i think that the make-up and hair is too fierce for such a casual summer look. And also, it's so expensive and to be honest, i prefer the one from primark!

                                             I love this denim cropped jacket, brogues, satchel and primark jumpsuit. It's trendy, casual and incredibly chic all in one. Definitely a great summer buy!

This is another Primark jumpsuit i found on someone else's blog. I love how she has teemed a lovely jumpsuit with a black cardi, High heels (good for a night out, but you can wear them with flats or gladiators) and a really great pearl necklace! Very chic and cool, BUT, at a fraction of the price!

                                                     I also love play suits- just a short jumpsuit in effect. This particular one is from Primark and i love the colour! It would look great with big sunglasses, a cardi, big pearl necklace, some serious bling and a hair ribbon!


                                                  This season, one of the most fruitful and fabulous trends has been women's playsuits and jumpsuits. Its success must be largely due to the fact that it appeals to fashions fans of vintage style, incorporating looks from the 40s, 50s and 70s, and as a bonus, is highly comfortable and easy to wear.

Try the playsuit or different jumpsuits with a pair of Mary Janes or stilettos and a shiny layer of brick-red lipstick for a classic Femme Fetale ensemble, or a pair of pumps and wavy hair for a more 70s bohemian style.

Jumpsuits for women are fantastically versatile and can be worn sauntering on the beach, or park for a casual and cute girly look, or transformed into a slinky, night time creation with the right heels and handbag. Choose from our range of floral, bandeau and mesh-bow jumpsuits, and our cuter stripy and black luxe playsuits to slouch and strut about in. http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/playsuits-and-jumpsuits_870034
