Rather Yellow


Outfit Challenge: Yellow 

Hiii! I've decided to try and motivate myself to use this blog a little more that I should d0 a series of challenges based around fashion and beauty. So this week I've decided to look at all things yellow.

Yellow is a huge colour this season and the shops are packed with lemony treats. As it's summer we all want to be dressed in bright clothes and generally feel happy about everything because let's be real here, when is it likely that the sun will stay out for more than a few days (in the UK anyway, those of you in tropical countries, i envy you).

I've put together some of my favourites that I've seen either in shops or online and they're all so gorgeous.Thanks for reading and I hope I've helped showcase how beautiful yellow is this summer. Hope you all have a lovely time in the sun and remember to stay protected with plenty of sun protection!
  • Sunglasses: Neon Yellow Transparent Retro Sunglasses- River Island, £10.00. Found Here.
  • Top: Embellished Detail Shell Top-Topshop, £38.00. Found Here
  • Skirt: Yellow Embossed Pattern Pencil Skirt- River Island, £25.00. Found Here
  • Dress: Yellow Daisy Collar Shift Dress- River Island, £30.00. Found Here
  • Bag: Friis and Co Neon Yellow Bombay Bag, New Look, £39.99. Found Here
These looks are a little more on the expensive side but they're just so pretty and girly. Perfect for summer time! If you have a yellow outfit planned and find yourself struggling with what colour to pair it with, white is always the key colour to make you look innocent and fresh. You could also use brown's and blacks to create a more glamorous statement outfit.

My favourite yellow item I have found on my search has to be this beautiful Crochet Neck Midi Dress from AX Paris, £30.00 which can be found here. It's both fine detailing around the neck area just gives the vibrant yellow a touch of glamour and delicacy. I love it!

Buy of The Week

Buy of The Week- Pink Tie Dye Crochet Top- New Look- £19.99

SUMMER IS ALMOST HERE WOOHOO! well, for us in the UK it's almost the best of the weather which still isn't the greatest but we'll just complain about it anyway. This top is absolutely stunning and I picked it up in New Look just because the colours are so vibrant and pretty. It's not usually the type of top I would go for because it's cropped and I'm not the thinnest of people but as soon as I tried it on I just HAD to get it. It's perfect for the summer as it's a light lace material and the pink ombre style is so on trend at the minute.

I would pair this top with a white vest top underneath the crop top along with white jeggings or denim shorts, just so it gives off that nice beach look. If you wanted to wear it more formally then maybe a pair of black skinny fitted pants or even a high waisted skirt, with a black blazer and some accessories to help accentuate the colours.

Although the price of £19.99 is a little risky for a crop top, it's something that I personally just thought "what the hell I'm going to treat myself" and since the top is so versatile with different outfits, you can pretty much wear it with anything. This top just makes me so excited for the sun. but if you are wearing it. make sure to apply sun tan lotion or you'll get a bunch of weird lace tan marks on your skin!
