Ok, so this outfit is actually from last week, not today. I'll post today's outfit tomorrow.

It's raining here in little ol' England. A lot. But that doesn't bother me because I have my super awesome see-through umbrella. Wahey!

Hat. Accessorize.
Coat. Primark.
Dress. Topshop.
Boots. Boohoo.com.

Unlikely Style Icon: PJ & Duncan

I am totally on a 90s kick right now. Following the fun I had with my Mr Motivator post last time, I'm sticking in 1994 with the legends that are PJ & Duncan. More commonly known as Ant & Dec, those of a certain age will remember the classic track that is Let's Get Ready to Rhumble.


Fun fact: It is really difficult to find decent photos of PJ & Duncan. There's a conspiracy theory in there somewhere. Also, there seems to be a cult Tumblr-centred fan base. Tumblr has all the crazy fan bases.

This outfit was inspired by the Let's Get Ready to Rhumble video- dark jeans, old school trainers, layering and a visor. What's not to love?


White blouse. £59.99. Zara.
Straw visor. £13. River Island.
Blue shirt. £10. Miss Selfridge.
Skinny jeans. £15. Boohoo.
White trainers. £9.99. Trainers.


All together now: Watch us wreck the mic, watch us wreck the mic, watch us wreck the mic. PSYCHE!

Wishlist: River Island Yellow Macrame Tassel Pineapple Bag

Ok, how amazing is this? This would look so great on summer day trips. The perfect tropical touch to my wardrobe. I want a pineapple hanging from my shoulder!

Pineapple Macrame Bag. £30. River Island.

Treasures: Marc by Marc Jacobs Sunglasses... and others

Ok, I have a problem. I am absolutely obsessed with sunglasses. You see, I was prescribed my first pair of glasses aged 8. Since then, I have worn glasses every single day of my life until October, when I finally bit the bullet and got fitted for contacts. Having never been able to wear sunglasses, and always being insanely jealous of all my friends with their lovely shady eyewear, I have gone a little bit overboard. This year, for the first time in 15 years, I have been able to wear sunglasses.

I've bought another two pairs this week. First, these purple Marc by Marc Jacobs beauties:


Secondly, these adorable little Moschino shades. They haven't turned up on my doormat yet so this stock image will have to do.

Aren't they cute? They're so much fun and I can't wait until they arrive! They just have Becky written all over them.

They are both going to join my growing collection. I'm currently on 14, although that will go up to 17 come payday... seriously! Here's the rest, the cheaper part, of my collection (bar 4 cheapy pairs that I lost in the move. I'm sure they'll turn up somewhere. It's just a matter of finding them!).

The white Prada-esque pair at the top are from Ebay. The pink Prada-esque pair in the bottom left are from Asos. All others are Primark's finest!

Then, of course, there's my favourite Vogue pair that we've seen a billion times before:

Come summer- when the sun might finally make an appearance- I'll have a pair to go with any outfit. Bring it on!

Catwalk Copycat: Louis Vuitton

Louis Vuitton is the darling of the season. Marc Jacobs has created a sugary sweet concoction of Broderie Anglaise, pastel shades and ultra feminine silhouettes. Perfect for summer picnics!

Yellow blouse. £29.99. H&M.
Yellow skirt. £39.99. Zara.
Metallic hairband trio. £4. Accessorize.
Perspex bag. £25. Kurt Geiger.
Silver tipped shoes. £78. Topshop.

Tuesday

Wishlist: Jeans, Jeans, Jeans

I know I don't wear jeans often but I am still having serious lusty pangs over the new season pastel-and-print varieties.

I do own one pair of black skinny jeans which are my go-to for gigs and other more physical events. I pulled them on last week to pop down the Co-op and discovered a massive hole in the upper inner leg. I need to replace these sharpish!

Then there's the Motel Jordan jeans that I am totally buying on payday. I desperately want a pair of pastel jeans. I'm steering towards pink or lavender. I really want mint but since everything I own is mint already, I'd end up looking like a massive size 14 Tic Tac.



Lilac jeans. £25. Dorothy Perkins.

Pink jeans. £38. Topshop.

Then there's the florals. Oh my, the florals. I just can't decide which I want more. However, since these seem to be selling out at an alarming rate, maybe I'll just let the stockrooms decide and buy whichever pairs are still available.

Tropical print jeans. £40. River Island.
