see you soon


I'm off to Spain for a visit with my friend, so I won't be posting for a bit. I thought I'd post a few unseen pictures from my trip earlier this year with my boyfriend! I'll be posting a bit on instagram so you can follow me on @lorisandes. Hope everyone's having a good bank holiday x

leather edge


So I got myself a pair of trainers. There was a pair I absolutely loved from River Island but they had a hidden wedge - and I just don't appreciate that. Instead I got these for £30, and have literally been living in them. I feel like they add a bit more 'fashion' to an outfit than my scruffy converse. I got this jacket recently too because I can't resist anything with leather sleeves.

the grass is always greener


This was just a simple outfit I wore on a crazy hot day. The benefits of it being ridiculously humid at the moment is that I get to parade around in my many hats without the risk of them flying down the street in the wind (its happened). People not from the UK probably won't realise how much joy there is in just sitting in a park in the sun doing absolutely nothing, for some reason its completely different to sitting around your house doing absolutely nothing.

boats and birds


These wedges have been in sat in my cupboard for far too long (some of you may remember aaages ago when they first became popular). I scored them in the sale but was too terrified to wear them for fear of ruining the pink suede in the rain. Since we've had some nice weather recently i thought it would be a perfect time to wear them with my new Bershka top I got in Marbella.

polka peplum


We shot these photo's really quick before a trip to the cinema, my dog decided to join and it started raining in the middle of it (excuse the hair) so wasn't too successful. I bought these jeans recently at H&M for £14.99 - bargain! I love distressed denim so couldn't resist adding them to my wardrobe. This top is actually light pink but it didn't come out too well in the photos, it's my current peplum fix.

n e o n


If any of you watched the Olympics you might have noticed a lot of lime green trainers about.. my boyfriend certainly did and has been raving about them for the past 2 weeks. Obviously the neon trend is nothing new, but so far i've steered clear from it (i love dark colours or brown hues). Typically, now my boyfriend likes it he's started to influence me, and i'm starting to crave neon greens (or yellow) to brighten up an otherwise simple outfit. 
What are your favourite neon colours?
