Cupcakes and Clothes

I've decided to bring my two all time Favourites together! Cupcakes and Clothes! All last week both the outfit and the recipe were on the top of my TO-DO LIST! The recipe was one i found online the weekend before. Dark chocolate and bacon. These ingredients inspired my outfit this week which infact is a little different to what i normally wear (long skirt or dress rarely fit me).  So how do you wear a dark chocolate and bacon cupcake outfit?

 

As you can see the dark chocolate cake covered in dark chocolate icing. This is the base, just like the black skirt i'm wearing. Both are dark and bold! (Are you with me?) Then the crispy bacon chunks give the cake that extra pop of favour and excitement,just like my lime green top, the flash of neon adds favour and excitement to my outfit.


 And there we go.. I have read about 3892 times bloggers need to bring something different to the internet and therefore i've mixed fashion with cakes. What will next be in my mixer and on my shoulders? 

Sunglasses

I mentioned in one of my previous posts that i've ordered 2 new pairs of sunglasses!! Well my first pair arrived today. Just in time for my concert on Saturday,lets hope the others arrive before my hols. 

Apologies for poor quality, had to rush,my dinner was waiting!

Sales 

Last but not least i'd like everyone to be aware of all holidays sales, me and my mum popped into topshop yesterday to do our bit!! Asos's one is also pretty impressive. 

I'm wearing a car!

Remember my last post about inspiration from our own forms of transport? And i told you all how i'll show you my own 'transport' theme outfit? Here it is... I find my outfit more motor-bike type. Of course it was the only day the sun has come out for over a month when i needed to put on my leathers pants (H+M). I find my top (new look) very bike-jacket like with the tassels. Also again i'm wearing my big black boots.

Would you wear a car?

Would you wear a car? I don't mean putting a car wheel around your neck or a windscreen as a headband. But today while I was in the car, as I peered around i noticed how designers may take inspiration from our man made machines.

Racetrack colours, also 60's mod dresses pull off the black and white.

Lana Del Ray looking effortlessly amazing in her biker jacket.

Metallic is big in 2012, from shoes to trousers. Inspired from car wheels maybe?

Aswell these and other disco pants have similarities to sliver car bonets.

Turning biker leathers into a fashion item

Oh so biker boots..

In 2011 Phoebe Philo said her A/W 2011 collection was inspired by luxury car inferiors 

So 'wearing a car' doesn't seem that odd after all. Next task for me is to show you my car 

inspired look. So keep posted until I put it up.

90s Trends

While our ears were listening to the spice girls our eyes were watching save by the bell. People have said how 90s wasn't a hit with fashion, even said how it took a downfall but looking back now you maybe disagree. I decided to look at the biggest trends in the 90s and how they are making a come back now.

The bomber jackets, as already by Rihanna. They all catch my eye whenever I'm in a river island store



Biker shorts, they became shorter and tighter and then BHAM fashion statement they were

Combat Boots, they have already returned!

'Bold Tees under Urban Blazers' if you haven't already got a blazer this year you should really slap yourself in the face

Crop tops and cut offs both inspired by Kelly from save by the bell. 10 years apart but can you tell the difference?



Ripped jeans, Who new Kim's fashion icon was Kurt Cobain?

This years must haves,Culottes. Here is a designer and high street verison.

New Look

Crop Tops and Skirts

This is a great look for SS2012 IF you wear it right.

Short,long,mid-lengh,almost every skirt works well.

TIP: Make either the skirt or crop top bold and contrast with the other,

this make your look stand out more. Or pick a pair of shoes

that are bold and will contast to your outfit.

Catwalk Bra Tops SS12

Here Selena Gomez is wearing this look at the Kids Choice Adwards 2012. I love the shoes, but thats it. I am not a fan of jewelled clothing,therefore the skirt was a big NO NO. The outfit has no bold colours,as if she was playing it safe. Fingers crossed she improves her next red carpet outfit.

High Street Look!

TIP: Add a blazer when it isn't that warm out
