Pre-holiday Purchase!

Sorry for not posting much this week! I've been super busy with work and trying to get myself organised for my holiday next week. I had to go all the way down to London (5am coach) to get my passport renewed as it's all very last minute, but the four hour wait gave me some time to do a holiday shop! I headed straight to Oxford Street and into Topshop to find myself in the middle of the sale and picked up a couple of amazing bits ie, the above blouse. It was reduced to just £20 and is actually a couple of sizes bigger than what i usually wear but for the price and beautiful drape I couldn't resist it, I love how it fits and its perfect for summer and my holiday, it looks great with a bikini! However it also looks great to wear in the day or evening, because its very sheer i teemed it with a banduea and my high waisted Levis. I also picked up a bikini in there which I've had my eye on for quite some time, black gold and white with a Versace-type print, check my instagram for a pic (@luciagrace). Anyway hope you're all having a great summer and making the most of the summer sales! I'll be back in 8 days, with what i'm sure will be a massive holiday post :)

Wedding Photography Outfit

Today I've been assisting my dad on a wedding photography job! Just a quick post to show you guys what I wore. It was a bit windy/rainy outside so I wore my flying saucer hat as a rain protector haha! Some black heels would have gone a lot better, I know, but taking pictures all day i needed to be at least a bit comfy. I actually got some beautiful photos from the day, a new found photography love!

D'you want to go the seaside

What I wore on Father's day. We took a trip down to Weston-Super-Mare to visit my Nan and Grandad who were holidaying down there for a short while. Those of you that know Weston will know its not the most glamorous of beaches but I love the seaside and its got a few cute little places there! Unfortunately the sun had disappeared from the time I got dressed to the time I got on the beach but I luckily had my favourite vintage Levi's denim jacket with me! Please excuse the atrocious windswept mane on my head, clearly I should have worn a hat haha. Anyway, this is another dress that I wore on my 18th for in the day, and I love it so much I'm trying to come up with different ways of dressing it down so I can wear it more! I paired it with a cropped jumper as not to cover up the lovely cut of the skirt and (badly) pinned it tighter at the back to keep the shape of the dress. I really like collars and there's a lot of them around at the moment and this dress has the cutest little satin one and I love the way it looks with the jumper. The jumpers got so many neutral tones so I decided to wear a few necklaces to keep the top half interesting, and then paired the outfit with ankle boots and sunglasses for a more day-time look. Hope you all had a good Fathers day too!

Firstly, massive hello and to all my lovely new followers! Seem to have tripled in amount since this time last week, and I've also had a lot of lovely comments so a big thanks guys:) Here's some shots from a couple of weeks ago. I was assisting a shoot for men's fashion label Judas Sinned's summer campaign, and whilst we were waiting for the models to preen we did a few test shots of me. They weren't intentionally meant to be used but I thought a few came out quite nicely and I liked my outfit that day! I paired a vest top/dress with a light shirt and DIY bleached jeans. I love them so much I'm planning to make another pair, maybe I'll do a how-to post, what do you guys think? Anyway, sorry I've been slacking of late super super stressed with exams, but this time next week they'll all be over, queue tons of free time and masses of posts haha.

Motel X Gimme Shelter! Vintage Fair

Yesterday Motel and Gimme Shelter! came together for a fantastic vintage fair sale, a 'Double Whammy' as they liked to call it!The Gimme Shelter boutique is an actual hidden treasure, located in The Lanes bowling alley it's been on of my favourite Vintage hotspots for a couple of years now, so to have it come together with Motel clothing, one of my favourite labels, was very exciting. With clothing starting from just £5 it was a vintage-lover's paradise. There was rail upon rail of Vintage shirts, shirt-dresses, Levi's, jumpers and jackets, as well as a table with an amazing array of vintage accessories, The white gemmed shoes above being my favourite piece! unfortunately I'm on a bit of a budget at the moment so couldn't leave with as much as I liked (even though everything was bargain-worthy) but I did manage to nab this amazing leather jacket. It was a perfect fit and although you can't really see it in the picture above it has an elasticated waist which gave it a very peplum-esque shape, which is very  on trend at the moment. My boyfriend said that with the jeans I was wearing it made me look like I'd just walked off an episode of friends, which somehow made me love it more. For those of you that live in Bristol, head down to the Gimme Shelter! at The Lanes for more bargain vintage buys. Let me know what you guys think!

Dip Hem Skirt

What I wore when I went out for lunch today! Finally I've got round to getting myself a dip-hem skirt, slightly overdue seeing as I've wanted one for ages. There's a lot of sheer ones around but I fancied something a bit different so I went for a geometric zebra print. I paired it with my peace crop top (it goes with everything high-waisted!), my sheer shirt and my Litas, which are in desperate need of a polish I know!
