500 FOLLOWERS GIVEAWAY

a Rafflecopter giveaway Yes I may have already reached the 500 mark but it's cause for celebration! I started Dream Love Live Fashion 2 years ago and back then I didn't even think I would have 5 followers nevermind 500! So, I thought I would offer a little giveaway of one of these beautiful white floral Geneva watches, in association with Arcus Accessories. You've heard me bang on about 'Depop', right? Well, this is where I came across @danica94 and her beautiful products, including; watches, hair accessories, jewellery and other bits and pieces perfect for complimenting your outfit! We decided that the white floral Geneva watch was particularly beautiful (you can find other alternatives on her Depop) and we wanted to give you the chance to win one yourself! It is still summer and florals are bang on trend right now which makes this watch perfect for accessorising any outfit right now! Arcus Accessories is a newly launched accessories online store and you can find their accessories on their Website , Blog , Facebook or on depop by following @danica94.

 The giveaway will last for 1 month and will end 12am on MONDAY 29TH SEPTEMBER! All entries will be checked to see that the rules are being followed, good luck! :)  

OOTD: ARK

Today is the day! I am literally like a small child at the moment because today I go on holiday... to DISNEY LAND. Not one of you can say that if you were going you wouldn't be excited! Hehe. Anyway as you can imagine there will be a certain lack of blogging from me over the next couple of weeks, I haven't just disappeared :')

 

So before I go I thought I would quickly share a little outfit of the day post with you. Admittedly it is nothing special but hey ho I'm very fond of this top! The one thing I do dislike about going on holiday is the travelling, and as I will be going via car and Eurostar it means a very long car journey from the North East, hmph.

 

I am wearing: AX Paris daisy Print zip back top, £12.99, ARK| Joni high waisted jeans, £36, Topshop

 

I particularly love this top as it is a way of looking summery, even if you are wearing black as the daisy print is so cute! (please excuse the creases) It also looks really lovely with high waist denim shorts, as for my jeans, I know that high waist tight jeans aren't always the most comfiest travel clothes option, but if any of you have these joni jeans you will know how comfy they really are, and the best thing is, you can wear them and wash them over and over and they won't stretch out of place!

 

What do you tend to wear for travelling? Leave me a comment below! :)

OOTD: iKrush

*This isn't the first time that my blog has featured iKrush, my previous post around a year ago featured their £1 dresses which they sold at the time! The online fashion retailer really is full of gorgeous on trend items at such affordable prices, and a couple of months ago I was thrilled to receive the 'skort' which is featured in my outfit of the day... for any of you who aren't familiar with the skort, it is basically a pair of shorts which is made to look like a skirt. When I got my skort I wanted to wait for the perfect occasion to wear it, and since the weather was so beautiful at the weekend, I was attending a barbeque and thought this little outfit would be perfect!

 I'm wearing: Phoenix floral print skort in black, WAS £19.99 NOW £9.99, c/o ikrush.com| Cream chiffon cami, £20, Topshop

What I particularly like about the skort is that from behind, they really just look like a pair of shorts, and from the front, the cross over design gives the impression of a skirt. The floral design is also not only really summery, but is really on trend this season. They are also super comfy to wear, although I would have to say that although these fit me perfectly, the item is a size 10 and I am usually an 8, so you may want to consider the smaller fitting nature if you want a pair!

The skort was originally selling for £19.99 which I think is such an affordable price to pay anyway, but now it is in the sale for just £9.99! I definitely recommend that you grab yourself one before they sell out... you can find the skort HERE.

I should also mention that although I wore my skort with a loose chiffon cami and jelly sandals, that on the iKrush website, you can also find a matching blazer to go with the skort if you would prefer a cute little two piece, which are very popular at the moment! However if you're not a fan, I would still recommend you visit their website at http://www.ikrush.com/ and check out all of the gorgeous clothes they have!

What do you think of my outfit? What is your opinion of the 'skort'? Leave me and comment below! :)

Birthday Shopping!

One of the things I love about birthdays is the presents and receiving money to buy those bits and bobs you've had your eye on for months but couldn't afford, I didn't really get that many presents this year so at the weekend I had one of the best shopping days I have had in ages, and really treated myself ! Luckily I didn't spend all of my money, so hopefully another shopping day will be on the cards in the near future!

Tiara silver & cubic zirconia ring- £40- Pandora| Tile stitch  leather crossbody bag- £38- Topshop| MOTO Authentic ripped skinny jeans- £45- Topshop| Petite floral trousers- £24- Dorothy Perkins| Fuchsia underwear set- £4- Primark

Okay so don't think I go and buy bra and nickers for my birthday presents :') I just picked this cute little set up because firstly, I seriously have no matching sets of underwear! And secondly, I don't know if you have noticed, but in Primark at the moment they have so many gorgeous underwear sets for just £4, bargain! This is seriously no joke, I made 3 trips to Topshop and tried at least 10 pairs of jeans on before deciding on these ones, and although I think they are a little pricey for Topshop jeans I fell in love with them! Although I have 2 pairs of 'Joni' jeans already, I just couldn't resist buying these as I wanted to venture into the world of ripped jeans...The bag I  bought has been something I have wanted for quite a while now, I just love it! I was honestly a little bit heartbroken when Topshop website told me it was "no longer available" but I managed to find 3 of them left in store thank goodness! If  you're a fan of comfortable style I highly recommend these Dorothy Perkins trousers, although they feel like you're wearing your pj's they look absolutely gorgeous and so summery! I would say though they are quite loose fitting so you might be like me and need a smaller size than usual.

Finally, I bought this beautiful Pandora ring, they really are one of my absolute favourite jewellery stores as they always have such gorgeous and pretty items that are such high quality! What have you all been buying recently? Leave me a comment below! :)

Laundry Boutique

* AX Paris Textured Rose Skater Dress- £26- Laundry Boutique

 

I really was overjoyed when my A X Paris summer dress arrived from Laundry Boutique, the dress was beautifully wrapped in blue tissue paper and enclosed a kind note hoping I would enjoy my new dress, and I must say, I really am!

 

There is no denying that florals are a huge summer trend year by year, and this dress really is a great investment, its diversity is fabulous! When contemplating when I could wear this dress I came up with a few occassions, ever wondered what on earth to wear to that wedding? This casual summer dress teamed with some heels will work wonderfully, that summer barbeque? Add some wedges or sandals, shopping day? Bring out the JUJU jellies, there really is no limit to how you can wear this dress and I decided I would wear it for a meal and drinks with friends, slipping on a pair of heels and a belt to sinch in the waist.

 

I particularly love how this dress is such high quality for the mere £26 price tag, the dress itself is textured which I have found works wonderfully if its a windy day and it doesn't leave you with an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction as it is thicker and a little heavier than a light floaty material. The print is also very summery and will never be out dated, and the cut out back takes the dress from a casual day dress to an evening or special occasion dress, absolutely love it!

 

As for Laundry Boutique they are a ladies fashion boutique online, and they also have stores in Chiswick, Altrincham, Stockton Heath and Chester, unfortunately living in Leeds I can only buy online! The array of clothes, shoes and accessories is so lovely and I literally have a wish list to fulfil, including; 2 skirts, a cami and a fluffy jumper. If like me you have visited the site and would like order a few bits and pieces you can use this unique discount code at the checkout by using the code: DREAMLOVELIVE10 to receive 10% OFF YOUR ORDER!

 

Don't forget, you can find Laundry Boutique online, Facebook or on Twitter and you can also find their independent accounts to keep up with latest news from your local Laundry Boutique store!
