Winning wedges for the summer from Peacocks
Author: Lucy
After just having a beautiful weekend of glorious sunshine I have been going through my wardrobe and noticed that I need a new pair of wedges.
Over the last year I have noticed that Peacocks range of clothing and accessories have really come a long way and are now a great source of reasonably priced clothing. They have a good selection of wedges to keep you looking good this summer and best of all they start from just £12!
Silver Quilted Peep-Toe Wedge
These wedges are the spitting image of the Chanel black ones seen on Lilly Allen earlier this month, these ones only cost £14 though.
Black Sling Back Peep-Toe Wedge
Simple plain black patent wedges, just make sure that with these you paint your toe nails a striking colour.
Brown Cork Wedges, these are so in right now.
They also come in yellow.

No doubt you are already thinking about what you are going to be wearing on the beach this summer! I wanted to show you one of my favourite makes at the moment. Seafolly was founded in 1975 by Mr & Mrs Halas in 1975 and today they make some great outfits.
I have picked a few of my current faves that are on sale at the moment from Figleaves, if you want to see more pictures or check the prices then please click on the pics.

Now that summer is nearly here I thought that I would let you know about these boobtubes I have found in Miss Selfridge.
The boobtube is an item that should be in every ladies wardrobe, they can be worn casually in the summer with a denim skirt and sandals, or in the evening with jeans and heels.

Dresses for every occasion from Quiz
Author: Lucy
The one item of clothing I find the hardest to buy is a dress, because this item has to fit perfectly and show off all the parts you want to show off and at the same time also look sexy and sophisticated.
There are so many factors to think about when buying a dress.
1. Is it suitable for my body shape
2. The occasion that I am going to, is this the right dress to wear?
3. Does the colour suit me?
4. Will everything stay in place that I want to!!
And the most important factor is - Do I have the right underwear for the dress, there is nothing worse than when you see a beautiful dress and you ruin it by adding a VPL or seeing what colour knickers or bra you are wearing
I have picked just a few dresses for many different occasions.
Just click on the pictures to see more views of the dresses and to buy.
White Cotton and Silk Dress
This dress can be teamed with gladiator sandals for the day look.
Black Layered Taffeta Dress
The dress is suitable for an evening event, maybe a May ball, I would put plain simple black high heeled shoes and a clutch bag.
Black Satin Layered Halter Dress
This dress is for the more daring and adventurous type of person. The dress is very much like a body con dress but that little bit kinder. If you are going to go bra less then I would get some double sided adhesive body tape, to make sure that you stay in place.
Grey Tie-dye Dress
This has summer party written all over it, the dress is keeping in line with dip dye fashion. As the back is so low and if you need to wear a bra I would suggest a bra that has a low back and also make sure it is halter neck.
Bows are the Big Thing on the High Street
Author: Lucy
One of the big trends this season are bows; you will see these on pretty much everything in the shops from dresses to shoes. Many of the high street shops have picked up on this trend turning simple plain tops into a high street hit by just adding a bow. Celebrities have been seen wearing bows from Liv Tyler to Danielle Lloyd who are wearing a black dress with a big bow.
My Favourite at the moment is a Black Satin Bow Ruche Dress from Quiz, this dress is very figure hugging and great for showing curves off.
A good dress for any spring or summer occasion is the White Bow Style Dress from Quiz, this dress is flattering for any figure and can be teamed with some peep toed shoes from Jones I especially like the One Charlton in Grey Pat.
