What Milly Wore: Before The Summer

Hi guys,

hope you're all well and enjoying the sun!

I found a few outfit pics that I took before it got so warm

so sorry if they seem a little inappropriate for the current weather.

I Wore:

Stretchy Black polka dot dress - New Look (sale last year)

this is a really versatile every day dress, 

it has a kind of skater dress style which I find really flattering 

Black skull necklace - Tarina Tarantino

I love love love all of tarina tarantino's jewellery,

this is one of here smaller more understated necklaces.

Black Leggings - Primarni

Black Jersey Waistcoat - New Look

I love this waistcoat,

it's great for adding an extra layer and it has pockets too!

Black Pixie boots - River Island 

Folky Print Jersey Wrap Coat - Free People (ASOS sale £40 last year)

I just love this coatigan!

It's so snuggley, and I love the faux embroidery style print.

It's got a bit of a skirt to it too.

Here's a close up of the print on the back

cute eh!

Bad Blogger! and Instagram round-up :)

As if I haven't blogged for over a month!!

I apologise for being  a bad blogger,

I just think I've lost my blogging mojo a little bit.

I'm working a lot at my new job, and I really love it there,

it just means I don't have much time to myself.

I'm feeling quite poorly and sorry for myself the past couple of days

so I thought I might as well do something productive!

I have however been using instagram quite a bit when out and about

So here are a few pics of my my face with various different make-up & hair over the last month.

Went for a lovely dinner for my besties  birthday.

Had a holiday in Scotland for a family wedding,

this is my make-up for one of the meals we went out for.

Whilst in Scotland my aunt and cousin taught me how to knit

here is the start of the best scarf ever!

The day of the wedding.

My big hair the morning after the wedding!!

This is what I look like when I wake up in the morning.

Got my hair cut, with a lovely new V fringe 

(that often looks wonky in pics but it isn't in real life!)

And wore a vintage headscarf, allsaints owain jacket and tatty devine white tiger necklace.

My hair and make-up one morning before my weekend job :)

That's all for now

I'll blog again soon... hopefully!!

What Milly Wore: Fancy Florals

Hello one and all :)

I've managed to make a small photography set up in my room

So I can take outfit pictures before work!

Yes these photos were taken at 6:30am

This is probably the most organised I have been ever!

With my new job and all, I've been dressing a bit smarter

and I love it!

Earlier this week I wore this outfit which consists of:

Floral / Daffodil white yellow and green dress: Tu (sainsburys)

In the sale, plus and extra 25% off everything

so it ended up being under a tenner!

I bought LOADS of clothes from Asda and Sainsburys

so expect to see more on the blog!

Khaki Catwalk Suede Tote Bag: Jaeger London RRP £499

I love this bag so so so much.

It feels really expensive and is a great size.

and it was the biggest bargain ever!

It was reduced to £60 on BrandAlley ( my fave designer outlet)

and I had a £50 voucher (from a tesco points exchange thing)

So all I paid was £15.95 including postage!!!

It came with the original Jaeger price label on it as well,

my mum nearly had a heart attack!

Here's a slightly better picture of the bag -

Mickey Mouse Padlock Necklace: Disney Couture

Plain Black Cardi: New Look

Plain Black leggings: Primarni

Black long top: H&M 

(worn underneath, so I could wear the tu dress rolled up as a top)

Lightwieght Green Parks: ASOS (flash sale £15 ish)

Leopard / Dalmation Pony Skin Boots: Kimchi Blue via Urban Outfitters

Still my favourite booties,

I get nice comments every time I wear them

and they're really really comfy.

I didn't manage to take any more work outfit pictures this week

but I'll deffo be doing one or two next week!

What do you guys wear to work?

Do you get to wear what you like within reason?

Leave any comments below,

I love reading them :)

What Milly Wore: Heart Shaped Pocket

Hey Guys and Gals

I'm currently tres tres bust starting a new job and all that

so I'm trying really hard not to neglect my blogging responsibilities!

So Here's an outfit I wore last week:

Bone Shaped Hair Clip: Kreepsville 666

Navajo Waterfall Tapestry Jacket: River Island, last year £40 ish

I've worn this jacket on the blog before,

it's a great extra layer, and I like that its a bit different

I've never seen anyone in anything similar.

Navy White & Tan Spotty Bag: River Island 2-3 years ago

Cream Treasure Chest Necklace: Disney Couture

Eiffel Tower Embroidered T-shirt: Topshop 1-2 years ago

White & Navy Cardigan: Topshop Sale £12 3-4 years ago

Black Leggings: Primarni

Mushroom Coloured Leather Boots: Office £90

These are another pair of my trusty office boots

very comfy, I love the way they look

and made from super soft leather :)

Denim Pencil Skirt: ASOS 4-5 years ago

I couldn't believe I could get this skirt on,

I have lost a bit of weight recently but not that much, maybe it's just stretchy!?

I just love the heart shaped pockets on this skirt

It makes an otherwise simple skirt very cute!

Once again I'm trying to wear items I've had for ages

and basically get my wear out of what I already own!

Instagram Round Up 1

 Hi guys,

I'm loving instagram at the moment (I know, late to the party much)

So I thought I'd do a round up of my most recent pictures :)

This glorious beast of an egg is courtesy of my sister,

She originally didn't get me an egg, and then more than made up for it

by getting me this egg reduced this morning!

I can confirm it's delicious :)

As soon as I saw these shoes I wanted them,

£7.99 from Internacionale

They are kind of tropical print 'toms' type pumps.

They'd run out of my size in the adults ones,

so these are from the teen section, *yay for small feet*

but are essentially the same.

Here is a picture I took of myself before work (must have been a couple of weeks ago now)

I actually like how I look in this for a change so thought it was worth posting!

I like it when I have enough time to do good hair and make-up.

Here are the remains of a gorgeous Chinese meal that my mum, my sister and I went out for

I'm generally not a fan of eating out, but I actually really enjoyed it.

This is a picture of my name on the whiteboard at work.

It's a bit of a silly thing to post really

but I was actually super chuffed that I was the person who sold the most

shoe-care that week.

*easily pleased*

Last but not least,

I ended up spending a lot of time in the Liverpool area last month (with family)

and while I was there, managed to go to the cosmetics company outlet

at 'Cheshire Oakes'

Safe to say it was even more amazing than I had expected,

and I bought more mac than I should have.

Hope you enjoyed this post,

lots of exciting things happening over here in Launderette land,

I'm trying to get my life organised,

and that includes my blog too

so watch this space!

(btw I'm MillyCupcake on instagram)

Much Love

xXx
