Summer Prep!

It's Easter Weekend people! And it's time to partay! (or sleep whichever takes your fancy)I know which one I'd rather do, and the hopes of a warmer break are always of course in the back of our minds, so in order to get you in the mood for the hopefully impressive temperatures to come here are some of my summer essentials:              

                                                             The Sunglasses -ASOS £12                                                  Oversized sunglasses are always going to be an essential, whether it's for your travels or just for the sunny days in Britain you cannot go wrong! And prices today are increasingly cheap with River Island, H&M, ASOS just to name a few selling some beaut pairs for around £10. Team with your bikini, oversized hat, and bedazzled kaftan for the ultimate summer look!

The Hat
A summer hat is more than just for appearance because it is genuinely a protector of the old nugget (is that the right phrase??" And for all of you festival ravers I highly recommend purchasing one similar to the one shown above, because the weather situation is always pretty backwards it's vital that you protect yourself because the last thing you want is to be burnt and miserable when you finally get to the festival! For all of you guys on a budget(stay sane payday is near!!) ebay has some amazing oversized hats in a variety of colours and styles, with the majority selling for around £3. This memorable sex and the city moment sums up why hats are so essential, they work as a sun and human shield!

The Short Boohoo-£20
 A good pair of denim shorts is like a good friend it may take years to finally find them, but once they're  yours  it's pretty  likely that they'll have a good life span. Whether it's low slung or high waisted make sure that you rock them this summer! They're so versatile being able to bring an everyday outfit automatically to going out attire, wow now I realise why I love these things so much. Hallejua for shorts!


                                                         The Shoe-Missguided £25
Flip Flop? Flats? Open Toed sandals? Whatever floats your boat, footwear is a key element of any outfit and let's face it why should we put all the thought and planning into a killer outfit, for it then to be ruined by an uninviting shoe. I don't think so! Comfort is an important element although I'm sure we're all parcial to suffering some killer shoe situations for that ONE pair. But in the summer we can't afford to do this everyday, so simple flats either plain or bedazzled will bring some sunshine to your outfit.

                                                      The Kaftan-River Island £55
Traditionally Kaftans are the ones that drap over the body and have some sort of sleeve, but when I came across this adorable black beach Kimono I knew I had to blog about it! It's always great to have something reliable, comfortable and of course cute to throw on over your bikini or just to add an element of summer to any outfit. I've actually tried this on and it looks amazing, whilst black is not always your choice make sure you have some possible ensembles in mind before you purchase an "out there" Kaftan. Pretty Little Thing, Boohoo and even Primark have some lovely numbers for the upcoming summer!                          
I hope that helped a little because I know how difficult It can be trying to shop for summer when it's absolutely miserable outside(BOOOOO!) Happy Sunday.x
