Hi everyone! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Other than being ill and unable to move off the sofa all day Saturday, I had a great weekend, especially yesterday when my boyfriend and I went to our friends house for a BBQ. It was my first BBQ of the Summer and I couldn't of asked for more perfect weather. Mr Sunshine definitely had his hat on and I even got a little bit burnt, oops. We had lots of yummy food too - its safe to say my friend went a tad OTT but we made a good effort at scoffing it all and there wasn't much left by the end of the night. Oops again. The drinks were flowing too - Pimms, Strawberry Daiquiris and Mixed Fruit cider, yum! 

As the weather was so lovely I decided to pop on a nice Summer outfit and in my opinion, nothing says Summer better than a good old maxi dress. I bought this Khaki one recently from River Island (link) and I absolutely adore it. I'd been after a Khaki maxi dress for such a long time as I love the colour for Summer and think it works well with most other colours and accessories. I think it works particularly well with tan and orange shades and as you can see, thats the colour I chose to style it with. I decided my Orange Zara Mini Shopper and chunky Orange necklace from Mataln would add a nice splash of colour to the outfit and looking at the photos I think they really compliment each other. I also popped a chunky tan belt around the dress to cinche in my waist and my tan cork heels from Marks and Spencers. I still can't believe I found those beauties in Marks and Sparks - who'd of thought it?

I added some chunky wooden bangles, also from Matalan and a cute hand chain from Primark to finish the outfit off and I also colour-coordinated my toenails and lipstick with Orange shades, as you do.  On my toes I'm wearing Models Own 'Hedonist' and on my lips I'm wearing YSL 'Le Orange' lipstick, just in case you were wondering (you probably weren't!). I also wore some aviator sunglasses from H&M which are obviously an essential when the sun is shining.

Considering this outfit was so easy and effortless to put together it still looked stylish which is why I love it so much. A stylish outfit thats effortless and comfortable, who can complain at that? I'm going on holiday on Saturday and every single thing I'm wearing here will be getting packed into my suitcase. I'm already looking forward to wearing it all again!

Do you like wearing maxi dresses in the Summer? What do you think of this one?

Lots of Love,

OOTN // In Love with Fashion Playsuit & 25% Off Code

Playsuit - In Love with Fashion* // Necklace - River Island // Shoes - Windsor Store*// Bag - Primark // Watch - Michael Kors // Hand Chain - Primark 

Hi everyone! I hope you're all well and having a great week. As I mentioned in my previous post, I went out for my friends birthday on Sunday night and today I want to share the outfit I wore. I was recently sent this beautiful floral playsuit from In Love With Fashion, an amazing fashion website that stocks stylish on-trend clothing for very reasonable prices. I have to be honest, before I was contacted by them, I hadn't heard of the website. However, since receiving this playsuit and one other item which I'll be featuring soon, I'm hooked. I already have a list as long as my arm of things I want to buy from the website so do make sure you check the website out. 

I'm a huge fan of playsuits and this one is just perfect. Its made from a light and floaty material, has a vibrant floral print and is perfect for day or night time wear. I decided to dress is up for my friends birthday but I'll definitely be wearing it on my holiday next month with sandals and a big pair of sunglasses. I also tihnk it could be worn in winter time too with some thick black tights and a jacket making it a great all rounder.

I decided to teamed it with a chunky rose gold necklace from River Island and hand chain from Primark to jazz things up a bit but it didn't necessarily need any jewellery due to the busy print. I also wore these beautiful tan heels from Windsor Store which again are perfect for the Summer. I love the t-bar strap and chunky wooden heel and can already see myself wearing them to death. I also took my new Primark clutch bag out for its first outing and I absolutely love it. The yellow clasp really brought out the colours in the playsuit and I didn't realise until I opened it that it has a gold chain attached to the bag too meaning I can use it as a clutch or a shoulder bag - how convenient!

I popped on my YSL 'Le Orange' lipstick to bring out the orange tones in the playsuit and walaah, perfect Summer outfit. I'll definitely be taking this on holiday with me next month, its so comfortable and convenient, requires no effort and is really flattering on the figure  all while still being girly and glamorous.

If you fancy treating yourself to some new clothes, your in luck! The lovely people over at In Love With Fashion have given me a unique 25% off code to share with the readers of my blog. If you like the look of anything on their website, all you need to do is pop 'couturegirl25' in at the checkout to receive the discount. Its valid on full price items until the 1st September 2013 and you can find the playsuit I'm wearing here for £36.00.

Lots of Love,
