The Nightshirt

Everyone keeps describing this dress as a nightshirt but this is what makes it so great, the style of a shirt dress and comfort of pyjamas all in one. I can feel it will be worn on repeat all summer.

I have also recently got Instagram so feel free to check it out here, I am hoping to use it to show more of my fashion design work which is my true passion as well as illustrations too. I can feel myself getting addicted following Dazed and ID as well as designers I love like Marques'Almeida and Christopher Raeburn all mixed up with the adorable images of cats and dogs I can find :)

Have a fabulous weekend...

I am wearing TOPSHOP shirt dress, DR DENIM jeans, MISS SELFRIDGE shoes, FIORELLI bag and PRIMARK sunglasses.

Styled With Glamour Wears... Navy and Black

Little bit of a photo heavy post today but I just love this dress. Hasn't been quite warm enough to wear it out much yet but I am hoping I will be able to wear this outfit to my friends 18th tomorrow.  I have to say I am very picky when it comes to dresses and I rarely find one I really like. I like dresses to be easy to wear, the sort of dress you can just pick up, throw on and feel good. And that's how this dress feels to me, it is floaty, sexy at the back in a really not overly sexy way and being a mixture of both navy and black perfect for a slight colour phobe like me. 

Anyway I will leave you with this quote, hope you have a lovely weekend wherever you are...

Pretty Dress with Sporty Trainers

This dress is one of those items which has been sitting in my wardrobe for a couple of months having only worn it once mainly because I haven't really known what to wear it with. I was wanting to casual it down yet modernise it because I think it generally has a more formal look to it. So I thought for a simple summers day what's better than pairing it with a pair of trainers which does both those things. I can't believe how much use I have had out of these trainers since I bought them, I would never have thought they would become such a staple in my wardrobe. 

You are probably thinking why an earth is there a picture of your ear Jade but I just wanted to show you my new piercing. I got it a few weeks ago which is why I am still wearing a stud and I absolutely love it! I cannot wait to play around with different types of earrings and studs when I can change them and of course now I have the excuse to do some more shopping!

I am wearing vintage dress from Beyond Retro, Carvela trainers, sunglasses from Spitalfield market and earrings from accessorize. 

One of my designs...

Let me introduce you a new face on this blog my beautiful friend Darcy. I was very surprised when I met her today to see her wearing this dress which I made last year. I made around 5 garments for her mum to go in her shop British Design British Made and this one she bought for Darcy as a birthday present. I was so excited to see her wearing one of my creations and definitely assured me that designing clothes was my life's calling. The garments I designed and made were inspired by english roses and I used a blue colour palette as I felt it they fitted with British Design British Made's ethos. I had to photograph Darcy in the dress today when we headed to London and spent the day at the Summer Exhibition in the RA and doing a spot of shopping and I like how she styled the dress with black which contrasted and modernised the vintage print. If you are down the south by the Bexhill coast check out British Design British Made it has a lovely ethos and some unique stock or look at the Facebook page here.

What I'm Wearing

Just a look at what I wore today, this dress is quite old really but I tend to get it out every summer. It has a cute little print which although isn't too clear in these pictures has little dots all over it and when I look at it reminds me of a galaxy print. Another bonus to it is the sleeves and high neck cover up my sunburn from yesterday! Hope your having a lovely week, I am still at school at the moment, less than two weeks to go and it will be the summer holidays!
