Its time for Jeans

So i know its only August, but it's time for jeans!! Look at it outside, its cold enough anyways! Now is the best time to start buying jeans, because most stores are now launching their new denim and have lots of great offers on at the moment!

My favourite place for jeans, that I highly recommend is OASIS, there jeans are fabulous and the staff offer a specialised denim booklet, so you can read up on all their styles and how they fit, so you'll have no problem finding that right pair for you! Plus the majority of Oasis Jeans are mid rise, so you'll never have that probelm with them being too low or uncomfortable.

At the moment they have  agreat offer on, if you have/want an Oasis VIP card - if you buy 2 pairs of denim using your vip card, you get £20 off any top in store! I think this is a fab offer, your getting 2 pairs of fab new jeans (because believe me you'll find it hard to choose just one) and you get a great new top to go with them!

Some of their great styles are : 

( click on the links below for a preview of  each style)

THE CHERRY -  straight up and down - mid rise 

THE AMBER  - slight bootcut, looser fit, great for curves - low rise

THE SCARLET - The perfect bootcut with slightly more flare at the ankle - mid rise

THE JEGGING - The skinny jean - fits like leggings, looks like a jean - mid rise

So get out there and get trying on some fabulous new jeans! 

Summer Legs - a trick to great legs and keeping warm

So it's July, which means we have to get those legs out and start wearing more skirts, dresses and shorts, but your worried about those legs or it's a little chilly outside (because we live in the UK and its always raining) Have no fear, I have a solution! 

I cannot stress how useful skin coloured tights are and I don't understand why more people aren't wearing them! They are amazing, i've converted everyone at work and now we're all wearing them now with our shorts. I got mine from Primark, 5 pairs of 10 denier natural colour tights for ONLY £2.50. That is amazing! The best thing about these tights is that they are the perfect colour, they give a great complexion to your legs, without making them look orange, and funny enough, they actually 

 keep your legs warm :) Happy days, for those chilly days! :)

I find most people just don't like the look of their legs, so these really help give that even skin tone effect and a slight glow at the same time! So come on, put on your summer wardrobe on, it is summer after all and i promise i won't tell anyone your wearing tights in July lol

Its all about colour

Working in the fitting rooms is a great way to see what and how people are shopping and i've noticed alot of people trying on clothes from the same colour range. I bet most of you have safe colours and probably have a wardrobe full of clothes with several different shades of the same colour, right? Ive also seen a few customers come in with their colour strips from these colour matching companies, these companies try and help you find what colour complements you best, But do we all really have only one colour that suits us??? No, and who has the right to tell you, you can only wear shades of blue, because blue suits you or oranges, because they warm your skin tone. This is rubbish ladies, we should all be experimenting with alot of different colours! All of us can wear most colours, and yes blondes can wear red, yellow does suit most people and please don't wear colours that blend in with your skin tone or hair colour, this does you no justice! Like me, im pale and if I wear some sort of cool colours, like beige or pale pink, I just look washed out. Same goes for people with pale skin and brown hair, try to stay away from brown. 

Bright colours also make you feel better and they make you appear more confident, think happy colours, ecspecially now its summer, you should all have no excuse! Experiement slowly if your too afraid, start introducing one colour at a time, like a small accessory or a plain colourful top with yourwork suit or jeans? If your stuck for what colours, all you have to do is look in most of the shop windows, there're great for inspiration and for the latest colour trends.

Heres one of the latest colour trends and ive noticed this colour suits most skin tones and hair colour, so give it a go! 

The Shorts are in!!

Example 1

Well girls it's June, and it's time for shorts!!! Get them out, and I know your thinking "oh but it's still raining or it's a little cold" theres no excuse, It's summer (come rain or shine) and we're going to wear SHORTS!! Useful tips on our to keep your legs warm in my next post, but for now here's some of my favourite and must have shorts. 

  Example 1- These are my primark pair, the best and most comfortable denim shorts I have ever worn. A must have in every wardrobe, they go with everything!! And denim shorts come in all shapes and styles, to fit all you body shapes. Scared of your legs??? No probs just check out my next post later!

Next are Example 2, I bought these in Oasis and I LIVE in them, the material is so soft and the neutral colour makes them so versatile! These are another must have, because they can be worn smart with wedges and a sheer blouse or toned down with some gladiator sandles and a cute tshirt for a more casual look. These shorts also role down, to add another 2 1/2 inchs to the length, great if your not quite comfortable yet with short shorts. Although i personal feel these aren't actually too short.

 Still worried about getting those legs out, no problem. Keep your eyes open for my next post, which gives you a great must have tip on how to tackle those legs.

Go on get your legs out!!!

Finding the right jean

The position & size of your back pockets can dramatically change the way your bum looks in jeans. If the pockets are too close together they will make you bum look wider, and try to avoid small pockets, as they will make it bigger. Pockets that are standard in size and point inwards slightly are the most flattering.
