The Monday Piece - Hawaiian prints

This week's Monday Piece is on hawaiian prints. When i think of hawaiian clothing all that springs to mind is those ultra bright shirts with palm trees and parrots that British men wear on holiday, and also Club Tropicana by Wham, haha! It's a style i wouldn't usually go for, but i liked the pastel pink colour of the shorts and thought the print was a bit more delicate and subtle compared to other crazy hawaiian prints. Silky fabrics can be a little unforgiving, so i paired the shorts with a sheer tee and some Converse from Urban Surfer. This is my first ever pair of Converse, i can't believe i've never owned any before - i must have lived a sheltered life! I'm after a little bubblegum pink cami to go with these shorts too!
Do you like hawaiian prints?

Warehouse oriental print dress

I hope you're enjoying the weekend and the fab weather. I thought today i'd show you this little number from Warehouse. Oriental and jacquard prints and patterns are so pretty and make a statement when worn with plain, classic pieces - so I wore this dress with my black fedora, and some strappy heels. The dress has almost like a quilted texture, the fabric is stretchy and hugs the body so is designed to be fitted - I rarely wear anything properly 'tight' but I've made an exception for this gorgeous dress, as the print and quality helps to hide a multitude of body sins and definitely gives you that confidence boost when you wear it! The Warehouse website has lots of other dresses for all occasions. They also do a jacket in this style which would look great with some black skinny jeans and a plain white t-shirt!
What do you think of the oriental/jacquard print trend?

What I wore today - MeeMee Oh My Love Dress

I hope you're having a good week so far! I had a pretty chilled out weekend which was nice, on Saturday i popped over to Birmingham to do a little shopping, Saturday evening had a takeaway which was yummy, then Sunday had a very lazy day! I've been waiting for the weather to be acceptable enough to wear this animal print dress from MeeMee, who stock lots of sassiness from brands like Oh My Love, Glamorous and Motel. They currently have an instagram competition running, all you need to do is tag yourself wearing any MeeMee product for a chance to win a 50% off voucher, happy days. This dress is from Oh My Love London, it's chiffon fabric (it has an underskirt too just in case), and has little cut out triangles around the waist, the multi colour snakeskin is such an unusal print! It's a great dress and such an easy thing to wear, i've just added my Primark strappy sandals and a dainty necklace :).

What I wore today - Lashes of London unicorn shorts

I've been waiting a life time (one week) to wear these incredible unicorn shorts from Lashes of London, here they are in all their glory, the fabric is like really thick, soft chiffon and the little unicorns are purple - plus they have neon yellow ties and pocket details! They're just too cute, and so light so perfect for days like today - its sunny and I've got a day off work, hooray. The neon bikini I bought from Primark matches the shorts too, now all I need is a beach and a cocktail to go with them. This Wildfox t-shirt is one I always go back too, and I thought the Paul's Boutique satchel would add a bit more colour to the party! I've just got back from town where I met my mum and sister for coffee outside which was yum, then this afternoon I've got errands to run and a needy guinea pig on my hands.
I hope you're enjoying the sun today, I'd love to know what you think of the unicorn shorts :)
