Happy bank holiday to all my readers in the UK and Happy Memorial Day to all my US readers. I hope everyone has had the best day to relax or enjoy in whatever way you choose :)
This week I was introduced to a fab new website called, What Goes With This? (WGWT for short).
WGWT is a brilliant website and fashion community for asking and giving style advice. The site allows you to do three main things:
1) Follow shops such as Zara, H&M, ShopBop, Revolve Clothing, Banana Republic and ASOS, to name a few, and save any items that you like to your member profile.
2) Upload photographs of your latest buys and ask the question, What goes with this? Community members then give you suggestions using products from the various shop feeds which also link to the stores where you can buy. You may also spot an item that you like in the shop feeds and ask community members about that product.
3) On top of that, you can also create outfits from the inventories and have people comment and make suggestions about your outfit choices.
After browsing the various shop feeds and picking items that I liked, I created a few outfits for some casual dates ... what do you think?
World Cup Outfit
Shopping in the Sun
Casual Lunch Date in Plaid
Membership for WGWT is completely free and the site is definitely worth the visit for any fashion lovers looking for inspiration. I warn you though, it's very addictive!!
Its Memorial Day Weekend in the United States this week which means two things 1) honouring the many men and women who died in service to the army and 2) taking advantage of the many sales taking place over the weekend.
Some of my favourite shops are having memorial day sales and I have collected all the relevant information for you all below ... you're welcome!!
Sunglasses: Rayban (save on similar bargain pair here)
Those who read my blog, know I love printed clothes. I particularly like butterflies and love this shirt which is an old buy from Oasis about a year ago. Butterflies are perfect for Spring and Summer and its not often that I get to venture out without my jacket but the weather has been great here this week so today was the perfect opportunity to wear my shirt alone.
Here are some other butterfly items that I like just now:
There's something very elegant about a white blazer and black cami top. It is easily put together and can be dressed up or down with a pair of flats or heels. I love this look on Kendall. Her mirrored shoes are by Barbara Bui and will set you back a whopping 500 odd pounds or $700 for those of you in the US. I like the mirrored wedges in the image above and I think they would look just as fab with the outfit. What do you think?
I absolutely love Rihanna's new pink look. I'm not brave enough to try it myself and I don't think my work would appreciate it but I think she looks fantastic. What do you think?
Pretty human rights lawyer and George Clooney's fiance, Amal Alamuddin, stepped out in London today in a pretty pink shift dress with bow detail and a pair of mismatched coloured kitten heels. Whilst I am still attempting to find the exact dress, you can copy her look using the items above. The bag is only £28!!!
So I have never been to a baby shower before and then in the space of one week, I was invited to two. Having never been to one before, I wasn't sure whether you were suppose to bring a gift for the mother to be or the baby. I did what I think most people do these days and turned to Google for a bit of help after much research, I came up with the top ten items that most mothers would be pleased with at any baby shower ... and yes, the gift is for the baby but ones to help the mother also.
I particularly love the personalised card from Tiny Prints. Tiny Prints provide personalised cards for any occasion that you can think of, even ones involving pets! Their huge range of cards for occasions involving babies or kids are particularly cute.
Here is your chance to bag yourself the exact same romper as seen on Olivia Palermo (above). For a change, Olivia steps away from her ultra expensive designer wardrobe and elects for a Peter Som romper from Kohls currently on sale for $38!!! Rompers are a fantastic addition to anyone's wardrobe and can be worn in any climate. Perhaps a more chillier day in New York this week, Olivia chose to wear hers with a black pair of tights and studded booties. The booties are currently sold out but I managed to find some on eBay for you at a fraction of the original price :)
Dianna Agron from Glee stepped out in a gorgeous mint and blue summer floral dress. Dressed down in a pair of Soludos woven lace up espadrilles, Dianna went for a casual day look accompanied with aviator glasses and a long chain bag. Dianna's dress is from J Crew are offering 25% off the retail price by entering code SOGOOD
