Sandal love


My sandal addiction is getting worse, although I have no money it doesn't stop me drooling over these amazing pairs of sandals! I'm going on holiday 2 weeks today and i'm in search for some cheap, perfect pairs of sandals. White is so in fashion lately, white shoes, bags and nail varnish. Therefore it's a must that I buy some white sandals for holiday! White is so sophisticated and basic it gives a perfect outfit a polishing touch.

T In The Park 2013












This was the best weekend of my life- T in the park. Oh my god it was unbelievable!! Me and my friend Andreana got a Thursday-Sunday ticket and the rest of our friends came on the Friday, so we just put their tents up for them. On the Thursday night we were putting out tent up and we met 2 boys who live about 20 minute drive from us we were like wow small world haha. They ended up drinking with us all weekend and it was so fun. I definitely recommend this festival to everyone because it was amazing. We just woke up at about 10 in the morning after 2 hours sleep and would start drinking again, was too good. The photos are in a random order but the last photograph was when we were on our way and our coach set on fire and we had to sit on the side of the motorway for 4 hours to wait for a new coach. Everyone got their camp chairs out and started drinking on the side of the motorway, the sun was scorching and it was so good.

All of the acts at T in the park were unbelivable, especially Calvin Harris and David Guetta, I've genuinely never seen anything like it before, it's on BBC highlights on BBC iPlayer, I seriously advise you watch it because it was sooooooo goood.

Flowers






First of all I would like to apologize for the lack of posting these past few weeks! It's been terrible. Although I have been really busy and my laptops been broke which has left me with nothing to use to blog with :-(. On the plus side i'm going to T In The Park next week! Eeeep. It's come around so quick and I'm so excited! The lineup is incredible and i'm so excited for the festival atmosphere! I've bought a tent and and i'm getting more and more prepared! Thursday-Sunday! And arrive home on the Monday afternoon.

This kimono (well..) It's actually a blouse from a charity store from York, although I decided to pair it with my black levis, roll the sleeves up and open the buttons to style it as a kimono! It was about £2.99 which is pretty much a huge bargain! Please excuse the ugly slit/cuts down the side of my thigh, I was extremely drunk one night and fell into a bush and it cut all the side of me!! Ouuuuch.

I've decided I'm going to post more often because I want to make my blog a lot more interesting and appealing to fashion bloggers. I'm going to include more interesting posts such as how to wear things and wishlists! Yay im excited for my next post!

Evolution Festival




Sorry I haven't posted in a while i've been held back by exams and college! So this weekend I went to Evolution Festival in Newcastle, it was such a good weekend I loved it! I got far too drunk (embarrassing) and the acts were amazing, especially Sub Focus, Ellie Goulding and Rudimental! The outfit I wore on the first day was a palm print bralet from H&M paired with my black levi shorts and fish net tights! It was boiling, I didn't just dress like this casually! I look so terrible on these photo's, i'm covered in UV paint and all sorts!

Gingham Style






Okay so the attempt of my hair being dyed silver.. Okay it went yellow. The silver wasn't dark enough to stick to my hair :-( I'm getting it done again on Monday with darker silver, although I've received quite a few compliments and my friends are telling me to stay this colour, argh?! I really don't know what to do.

I bought these gingham pants from Matalan last week, their size 8 are very generous because they're huge on me! Also I love my new choker from eBay, it's got a cute half moon on it, i'm a choker addict now i've ordered about 3 off eBay! Sorry this is a really quick and short post, i'm kind of rushing. But i'm starting to use tumblr a lot more now so if you ask questions i'll happily answer them :-): pretty-lilac.tumblr.com!

Overalls




Today so far is really sunny, i'm so surprised because usually it's raining, typical England. I woke up this morning and the weather was so warm so I decided to wear my denim overalls from Topshop. I paired them with my black croptop from Topshop, and my white converse. I'm so nervous in half an hour i'm getting my hair dyed silver! My hairdressers coming to my house, she's bleaching my hair then she's dying it! I'm so scared because I've never dyed my hair before so this is new to me! I'm so excited to see what it's going to turn out like, I love silver hair at the moment because it's in fashion, after seeing tons of models throughout my tumblr dashboard I decided that I wanted it doing!

I'm so excited for summer, I need to buy tons of new summer clothes, i'm currently browsing Topshop and also have about another 3 tabs open which are mainly clothes shops, I think i'm a shopaholic. P.s sorry for looking extremely pale on these photo's!

Chanel Lips








 Sorry for the lack of boringness in my outfit, and the really crappy background of my room, this was a shot after I just got in from college and I have no where else to take photographs, apart from my room:( I'm hoping to get my room all decorated, although I only last got it done about 1 year ago, never mind  I'm hoping to find some brick print wall paper and a large clothes rail instead of my wardrobes, this is all inspired by lulutrixabelle! I love her bedroom so much although I could never get mine as good as hers because mines so small! Although I do have a huge cut out in my wall where my TV goes and other bits and bobs and shelves.

Anyway, in this photograph i'm wearing my new Chanel lipstick! Yay! I love it, it almost lasts me a full day of college! Wow! I'm now on the hunt for white nail varnish. I seen a pretty one from O.P.I but it's a little bit on the pricey side, oh and i'm also hunting for palm prints! I'm in love, and oh i'm also dying my hair silver this week! Yay for me, i'm currently a virgin to hair dye right now as i've never dyed my hair, good luck with me on this one.

Coachella & Silver Hair


Polyvore is my new favourite thing lately, I love it. Putting outfits together has always been something I've loved to do, so when I discovered Polyvore a couple of years ago, I was so happy! I wish I was at Coachella so so bad, it looks perfect. The fact that it's in a hot place makes thing worse because you can wear pretty summer clothes. Here's two outfits I put together, I love them both so much and these would probably be something similar to what i'd wear if I attended a similar type festival. I've seen photographs of people like Vanessa Hudgens who looks perfect and her outfits I also envy!

I've been getting bored with my hair lately and i've never dyed it before. I've decided i'm going to dye it silver! Silver is such a pretty colour and I need a change to my hair, i'll obviously have to bleach it then dye it but i'm sure it will be worth it. I love changes to my hair, until I get sick of them and i'm sad until I get my hair back again aha. Oh well, i've wanted silver hair for a while and it's a hairstyle what isn't really popular with tons of girls changing their hair colour to it is it? Ah i'm excited!

New York


























First of all, i'm extremely sorry for not posting in a long long while! Everything was so overwhelming trying to get all my clothes sorted for New York and college and stuff. Second of all, sorry for the such heavy photo post!! Although I love every single one of these images, as I took over 600 in New York so I had to shorten them down!

About 2 weeks ago I went to New York City. Oh my god it was probably the most amazing experience ever! The sightseeing was actually spectacular! I would love to visit again, I can now tick that off my bucket list!

Throughout the holiday (I went for 3 full days, Saturday-Thursday, 2 days were mainly travelling) we visited Grand Central Station, Central Park, Museum of Natural History, Statue of Liberty (the skyline is amazing), 9/11 Memorial, Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Shopping in Soho, 5th Avenue and Times Square. Although our hostel was 1 bock away from Times square, literally walk out of the hostel walk around the corner and wow!! In our free time late evening we just went shopping around Times Square.

I spent over $300 on makeup! Argh seriously I barely even wear it, including lipstick from Chanel!! I found that when we got time given to shop (I went with college), it was hard to look around in about 2 hours when we got to a location we would have free time. It was hard to find the good shops because we didn't know our way round so we just randomly walked places hoping we would find good shops. In soho, I found an American Apparel, I was so tempted to buy so much more stuff but I had to stop myself! I bought the Jersey T-Shirt Romper in Grey and the Corduroy Circle Skirt in Black! I love the Romper but I found it a little bit short and tight, maybe I should have purchased the size up because I find unless i'm on holiday or it's really really hot, i'll have to wear tights, but I'm still in love with it! The Corduroy skirt is perfect, it's like a total new edition to the skater skirt, I love it, it will definitely be a staple piece for my Spring/Summer wardrobe!! I also spent tons of dollars on Benefit makeup, I love it so much I have a new addiction, oh and I also bought some MAC foundation, which is really good, it makes me look really natural and light!

I hope I visit New York again, I took some unbelievable photographs (using Nikon D3100) which I am very very proud of! Sorry for the post overload but it had to be done!
