List of Loves - June Favourites! | Laura Ann

Hello Lovelies!

So I haven't done a favourites blog yet but I've wanted to for a long time but I didn't feel I had enough to talk about....until now! Lets just jump right in! Here are this months favourites!

The first thing is my amazing Penny Board! Last August, on the very last day in New York I purchased a Penny Board! I had really wanted one for a very long time but never bought one... until this holiday! I met two lovely workers called Ben and Byron who helped me out and I've never been so happy with a purchase (apart from clothes they're fabulous!) So this is my Penny!

 

 

The next thing I have been loving is this book: Alexa Chung IT! Let me tell you something, its incredible! Possibly the greatest book I have ever read EVER. The way it is written is so relatable even though her life is much more fabulous than mine, you kind of connect with it! I got it from Urban Outfitters for £16.99 which I guess is expensive for a book but its completely and utterly worth it!

 

The book shows up weird on camera because its a funny material so the lines are not actually there

I'm a complete shoe addict and its gotten quite serious as im stealing my sisters shoes now... We both love Converse and my sister has awesome ones especially these which are so funky and great for summer as they're really bright and colourful! I think these are limited Edition but I don't remember as they are from Florida in 2010.

 

 

 

Back to Books! Ever heard of John Green? Of course he's the author of many books but most popular The Fault in Our Stars! Although im not talking about that one- Paper Towns. Im reading Paper Towns and im addicted- not going into too much detail but its just as good as Tfios!

 









Next on my list of loves is a Kimono! The very popular, the very amazing Kimono. I think these look amazing dressed up or dressed down but I honestly love them! Mine is a very bright pink Patterned design from Primark for just £13!

This is me wearing the Kimono obviously!

I Went to the custard Factory in Birmingham the other day and there's this Vintage store that I fell in love with! I bought some Glasses from there and im now officially addicted to them! I feel they make an outfit abit different and they look very chic!

I could ramble on about a million more things but im going to leave it here... for now! Please let me know what you are loving and I'll talk to you again soon!

The Chunky Shoe | Laura Ann

Hello Lovlies!

Right, recently I have been LOVING the chunky boot/shoe! I already have some chunky cut out boots which you may have seen on a previous blogpost but now they have become my addiction!

I've found this really amazing website that sells all the shoes I love for a very decent price! It's called Lamoda.com!  

These are my absolute favourites which might actually be purchased very soon!

The very first pair, which are white, are my favourites! They're kind of a brogue style and I think they will look cute with every outfit and they are only £20!

Now they're not all boots (obviously) and there are socks on there BUT I thought these shoes with those socks will look amazing and the socks are only £1.00 which is a complete bargain!

Each shoe would look great dressed up or down and yes they're not everyone's cup of tea but most definitely mine! 

What shoes are you really loving? If there are any websites that sell shoes like this for cheap let me know!

Fathers Day & Fashion Photography!

 

Hello everyone!

I have many posts to come but I need your help! I've been interested in photography a lot, especially linking to fashion so I need your guys opinions on things that I post in the future so just comment below for me what you think!

Anyway today was Fathers Day and we went out to Birmingham! We went to The Custard Factory which is an urban area where many graffiti artists make art and also there are some really cool vintage shops and office spaces! It was a lovely day!

There were some amazing photography spots which really interested me and my Dad! 

For my outfit I went for a classy chic style with a bright red lipstick and a classic bowler hat!

The pictures are taken by my Dad so that's a bonus!!

The glasses I'm wearing are from a vintage store in the Custard Factory and I fell in love with them!! My bowler Hat is from Boohoo.com and my blazer was from New Look!

I hope you have had a lovely weekend and Happy Fathers Day!

Love you Lovelies

What I'm crushing on: Urban Outfitters

Hello everyone!

So I think that I'm due a crushing on post! I love clothes so so so much yet I can't get enough as I need to save for my trip to Paris so I'm holding back! 

So I'm back to window shopping!

Here are a few things I'm loving from Urban Outfitters:

So I cannot afford one single item from this picture!! I am literally dreaming for all these things! I'm going to paris in august and need some clothes and these are the items I'm looking for! The hat is something that I wouldn't normally go for BUT a rapper called Lil Za who is friends with Justin Bieber wears them all the time and I just really like them even though I wouldn't suit it!!

The dresses are super cute and would look gorgeous with a pair of boots and a cute satchel! 

I need the skirt and shorts now! I think they will look amazing in the summer and could be dressed up or down!!

What sort of things are you looking for? Any spring/summer trends you are loving? 

Love you lovelies

New Buys: River Island Shoes

Hello Everyone!

So I have spent even more money! I swear I have a problem because I can't go a day without shopping or spending a little bit of money BUT I have wanted this particular pair of shoes for a very long time but could never afford them!

I went into my local river island and went straight to the sale and in the shoe I wanted in the last size for £15 from £45 were the exact shoes I have been wanting!! That last size was my size it was just like fate!

The shoes are very stylish and go with every outfit! I know they're not for everyone but I seriously love them with a passion!

They are the chunky cut out boots that look a little like this:

Have you got anything on your shopping list?

Love you lovelies

My Favourite Perfumes

Hello Everyone!

So this is just basically my perfume collection!! I have a slight obsession with perfume and may have gotten too many recently! I also steal my moms perfume so that's perhaps not the best thing but I do get good use out of them!

This first one is Calvin Klein Eternity and it smells delicious, I'd definitely get it again!

This next one is Versace Bright Crytsal and I got this from New York in Macy's! If I had the money I'd buy it again as it's not to strong but just perfect!

This one is Si by Giorgio Armani and as you can tell I haven't used it as much but that's not to say I don't like it because I do! It smells divine and honestly amazing!

This next one is The Key by Justin Bieber! Now this is one of the cheaper perfumes I own but also one of the best smelling ones I have! It has almost run out so I'm seriously going to buy it again it smells so good!

Now my final one is Friction by FCUK! This one is very sweet but not to obvious! And that is why I love it! The bottle is actually empty because I ran out of it the other day *sad face* but hopefully I shall get some more!

So have you got a favourite perfume? Any recommendations for me?

Love you lovelies

OOTN: Gavin Degraw Concert!

Hello Everyone!

So long time no speak! First off im so sorry, I really have no excuse BUT heres a post now and its a very exciting post!

So for those of you who have very good taste in Music you may have heard of someone called Gavin Degraw! He's a musican/singer from The United States in New York and has come to Europe for his Make a Move Tour! Today is the 26th February which is his first date in Europe and im very happily going tonight! Its starting off in the UK which is where I am!

So to show off my excitement and not annoying the parents, I thought id tell you about it I my blog- well my outfit anyway!

So im going quite simple and not really dressed up, quite casual!

So for my outfit I have a checked shirt around my waist because it looks swaggy! No I'm only joking well... If inside I get a little chilly I can just pop it on!

But I wore that with black jeans and a top that says style is fashion! With my converse!

I really love black jeans and they go with everything so that's even better! Checked tops are my favourite things at the moment and I've worn mine a lot already and I only got it last week!!!

The concert was incredible! Afterwards we stopped behind and met Gavin, I held his hand and basically had a moment of complete fangirling!! 

Here are some pictures of the concert!!

This is the moment I met Gavin and held his hand!!

He got so close to us it was amazing 

So I hope you enjoyed this blogpost and there are many to come! I have them all planned out and ready!

Do you know Gavin Degraw? Are there any concerts your going to or have been too? Comment below, I'd love to hear about it!

Love you lovelies

What I'm crushing on: Aéropostale

Hello my lovelies!

Right so short story! When I went to New York, on the last day we went into a shop called Aeropostale - I'm almost sure you might have heard of it if not it's a clothing store! Anyway I bought a t shirt from there and I love it to pieces! I regret not buying anything else as we don't have the shop In the UK! So anyway I went looking on the web and found that they ship to the UK! 

This made me very happy so I took a look and I managed to get a list and thought I'd share it with you!

Here we go!

I have the Aeropostale app and it's all in dollars so I do apologise if your British like me!

All of these accept the shoe is from the Bethany Mota range and it's just gorgeous! The red jumper is so chic and will be great in the cooler months but even in the English summer you could wear it so it's great! That is $19.99 which is really good! The next shirt along is very cute and I love the style! Once again good for summer as it's not to thick and would look great with shorts or jeans! It is only $8.99! The black blazer is a must have for every wardrobe! No matter what you wear a black blazer will go with it! That was $17.99! The dress is honestly adorable and will look good dressed up or down! This is $19.99! The Bow necklace will look super cute popping out of a shirt looking all fancy! It's only $2.99 so super cheap! And finally the shoes! I think these would be great for summer and I love the boho chic vibe they have and they are $18.00!

So I do apologise for the dollars but I know that in the uk it would work out cheaper! 

I may have a little spend soon! 

What do you like? Have you got anything from Aeropostale before? What was it?

Love you lovelies!
