Another New Look Wishlist

T-Shirt | Denim Dress | Kimono

Denim Skirt | Loafers | Camel Skirt

I'm really loving New Look at the moment! I'm looking to add a few new things to my wardrobe since Scotland is finally getting some sun and the first on my list is a denim skirt. I used to wear these all the time when I was younger so I'm really happy they're making a comeback! I think it'd look cute with either the contrast t-shirt pictured or a nice breton style top. I also love this denim dress which could double as a pinafore over a crisp, white blouse - paired with these blush pink loafers. I think the kimono is perfect for Summer, with it's leaf print and bright green shades. Finally, I'm obsessed with this camel shade. I've been after a skirt like this for ages and it's only £18 - such a bargain!

The Kelpies Tour at The Helix

A couple of weeks ago one of my mum's cousins came over from Australia to visit everyone, so we had a few days planned out for him. We decided to go to the Kelpie Tour in Falkirk and it did not disappoint! I'm a bit of a history nerd so I was quite excited to go. The tour was around £7 and lasted 45 minutes. We got to learn some history about the Clydesdale horses, and about Duke and Barren - the two horses that the structures are based on. We even got to go inside one of the sculptures, which made paying for the tour really worth it! There's something really amazing about these sculptures, especially when you're looking up inside of it. I would really recommend this to everyone!

The only downside is that the visitor's centre hasn't opened yet, so there's only a small cafe to get a coffee or something to eat, and a temporary gift shop, but it has made me want to return when the whole park is complete!

What do you think of the Kelpies? Is it something you're interested in seeing?

Inspiration: Olivia Palermo

Today I thought I'd share one of my style inspirations - Olivia Palermo. Although she was the bitchy girl that no one liked in The City, she was always my favourite. I love her classic style, which sometimes reminds me of Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl. She's always seen on the Front Row, and she's one of the main reasons that I want to work in fashion (I was always so jealous when she worked at DVF and ELLE!). Whatever the weather, Olivia just gets it right.

A Catch Up

I haven't done one of these posts in quite a while now so I thought I'd update you all! I've finally finished university, after an extremely stressful semester. To celebrate, my friends and I decided to go to GBK for dinner before we all go our separate ways for Summer - I love their burgers! I've also been to see The Avengers: Age of Ultron and watched The Hobbit for the first time. Now that I have a 5 month Summer ahead of me, I'm making more time to read again and to focus on my blog. I also want to take advantage of living near Glasgow and plan lots of day trips. I've already ticked one day off my list - going to see The Kelpies in Falkirk.

An Ikea Wishlist

BILLY Bookcase • KASSETT Boxes • LACK Wall Shelf • KASSETT Magazine Files • SNILLE Chair • STODJA Cutlery Divider

Clearly I'm still not over the whole white furniture thing - it just looks so clean and simple! Anyway, I've been thinking about updating a few areas of my room - mainly my bookcases and the walls. Instead of having two smaller bookcases I really want to get this Billy one just to take up less space. I'm also going to get the storage boxes and magazine files to help style it! I'm thinking about getting a few of these floating shelves as well, just to make my walls look a bit more interesting! I'm in desperate need of a new desk chair as the one I have is literally falling apart. I also thought about getting a cutlery divider to put in my desk drawer for my stationary - I'm not sure if this is a really smart idea or really stupid!
