Neon, can you pull it off?

-
It first started with celebrities sporting the neon hair with the likes of;  Rihanna's bright red, Katy Perry's blue/pink hair and then Kelly Osbourne's grey hair with a slight tint of pink. Or even the most wanted ombre style but re adapted with bright shades at the bottom, done by none other than Jessie J.





Although you have to be very confident to be able to pull of these trends, don't get me wrong I would love to dye my hair pink again(yes again I was a young teenager once) but having to do dye it over and over again to keep the colour doesn't appeal to me.


But now the neon clothes have spread to the catwalks and even to the high street. It started off  Versace and slowly but surely it caught on like wildfire, with celebrities being more more out there than ever before it was obvious it was going to quickly catch on.


With TOPSHOP's new "Calypso" collection it shows you this latest trend in one place as well as the other key trends this summer prints and dip dye. The collection has a very 40's feel to it and has a hint of Carmen Miranda within it as well, and the bright colour's will definitely get you in the mood for summer even though the weather is saying the opposite right now. Here are a few of my favourites from this collection, have your card at the ready girls......

 Palm print leggings £20.00
 MOTO Dip- dyed hot pants £34.00
 Animal floral latino suntop £26.00            One of my favourites!
 MOTO Neon pink 7/8th jeans £30.00
Spike mix bangle set £16.00

Even Cheryl Cole's new single cover, thats just been released today, shows her rocking the neon trend.

Post Secret.. Whats your secret?

-

I know this is meant to be more of a fashion blog than anything else, but I also like writing about subjects that really influence me. Ive known about Post Secrets now for a few years and they really do touch my heart and do shock me to an extent of what people write. Basically a Post Secret is a postcard which someone designs themselves- which includes a background image they create and then the secret itself. Although what I never realised was how in depth people can go with their secrets- I expected just normal everyday secrets like "I really like you, but I don't know how to tell you" for example, but some people gave away a deep and emotional secret to them. It started to go on the website once a week to see the secrets and the detail that people went to within them and the design of the card really shock me. Though when America was sadly rocked with the events of 9/11 I thought people would want to keep there feelings to themselves as of course it's such a ...

£25 Voucher For River Island... Goodbye Bank Balance

-

Recently it was my birthday so like any other girl, I got a lot of jewellery and money, though the one thing I my family rarely buy me are clothes. They find it hard to keep up with the trends that are going on and understanding why items they wore back in their hay day is now back in fashion, so instead they give me clothes vouchers so I can decide on what I like. Which is a bonus as knowing my mother she would probably still fit me into floral dresses and cute tops I wore as a child so she could have her little girl back again. So today I decided to have a gander online at River Island to see what items are screaming at me to spend my voucher, and these are the items I have found so far. I intended on finding just six items, but the further I looked on the site the more and more I started to realise my bank balance was going to take a hammering.  Light Brown Lace Up High Tops £30 Ive wanted a pair of high tops for ages now, not only are they comfortable to wear but it...

Prom dress, or Cocktail dress

Image
I haven't blogged for about a week now, but this is due to me getting so many assignments and all my deadlines coming at the same time (and also me leaving everything till the last minute d'oh). But my college course has organised a prom for our campus as well as surrounding campus's on the same course in June, which isn't that far away. Normally I would like to say I'm organised and have an outfit ready in my wardrobe anticipating its debut... but unfortunately I haven't even started to think about what I'm going to wear till now. My friend on the course has gone for a cocktail dress, which is very formal, and some other people have gone for prom dresses too. Me being me i want to be different and have something formal but quite dressed down too. I'm the fussiest person I know when it comes to choosing an outfit, though i wanted to rent a dress out as I wouldn't get another occasion like this for a while. I got shown these two websites called, Myc...
