Topshop || Tall Section Weekly Selections #2

Tall || Neon Animal Midi Dress || £32
    I'm not the only one who is in love with the midi-dress trend and this dress helps to prove why, moving onto more summery clothes (even though the weather disagrees) the colours in this dress scream sunshine. I don't normally like leopard prints with out there colours such a pinks and blues, but this dress in an exception. I'd love to pair this with some silver jewelry to give it a more subtle look, for day to night looks. 


Tall || Hollywood Burnout Tee || £18

    Keeping it rather simple with the shirts, is this burnout tee that can be paired with absolutely anything. When the weather does heat up I tend to become super lazy with my outfits and prefer to wear a nice baggy t-shirt with a bodycon skirt and tights or some shorts, so something like this is ideal for that job. The neutral colours help you match this off with more elaborate prints, such as floral/aztec/pleather shorts and not look other the top.

Tall || Monochrome Aztec Vest || £12

    I chose this vest for more or less the same reasons for the shirt above, however the bell cut shape is this is very appealing to me as it proportions your hips out perfectly. Girls who are body conscious over the hotter months can wear these vests and not worry about their hips looking too wide, as this cut gives the illusion of slimmer hips as it falls into a semi-circle. The print on this is also very summery, and it proves that some trends (aztec) can stay around for more than one year which is great!

Tall || Viscose Quilted Sweater || £38

    Even though all of the items of clothes bar this jumper have been summery, we do have to be realistic for the UK weather as we've been having snowfall in March which is outrageous! This guilted jumper is perfect for keeping you nice and warm on cold college mornings but is also very on trend with the quilted effect. Subtle detailing like this allows you to keep it very casual or dress it up with a chunky necklace and some slim leg patterned trousers.

THIS WEEK | River Island Picks #1

    The first item from my River Island picks is this lovely graphic t-shirt with a cat on it. Being a big cat lover, anything that has a cat imprinted on it is a winner for me. The sequined mustache, gives the t-shirt some character and will hopefully sparkle when light catches it. Items like this are perfect for a casual look with jeans, patterned leggings or a body-con skirt.

    Next is this over the knee midi dress with a black and white checkered print. This dress is perfect for all seasons as it can be the base for layering or can be worn on its own during the spring/summer. The length of this dress makes it a universally pleasing dress, as it flatters all figures and covers enough skin without looking too prudish. Dresses in this style are my absolute favourite and I can't wait for the sun to come out so I can live in them over the course of the summer.


River Island || Black Tube Print Dress || £25
   
    Due to the next item of clothes having a 'washed out' effect the image is not the highest of standard, however it shall do! I have a shirt very similar to this that I picked up in New Look earlier this year! Both shirts are very Chanel-esque with their boxy fit and crochet material. This is another piece I look forward to wearing over summer as the material is very light weight and floaty.


River Island || Boxy Shirt || £32
       
    The final item of clothing is extremely plain and simple, so there's not much I can say about it but it's a grey over-sized t-shirt. Items like this are essential in anybody's wardrobe as they can be incorporated in a everyday, casual outfit. Or if you're wearing a heavily patterned skirt, shorts or trousers. I don't have enough of these shirts and need to stock up while they're so inexpensive.
