White Noise

One of my favourite trends for S/S 14 is all white. The trend was adopted by many on the S/S 14 catwalk including Ralph Lauren, Sass and Bide, Emilio Pucci and Roberto Calvalli. The trend has now began to hit high street stores. I feel this look can be worn day or night nonetheless, the white combined with a lace on a hot summer’s day will deliver for the perfect look for sophisticated day wear.

My high street favourites from this trend are; 

1. Vagabond Dioon white leather heeled shoes  £60.00

2. Silence + Noise Tri-Strap Maxi Dress in White £52.00

3. High-waist structured shorts - £29.99

4. ASOS FACTORY Gladiator Sandals  £50.00

Even though the weather in England is not quite the type for sandals (or even short for that matter), once the sun is shinning I think all these pieces will look gorgeous. 

Whats your favorite item from this 'all white' SS/14 trend? 

The Amazing Spider Man 2

Not a lot of people know this but I am a big fan of the marvel movies. What can I say, i'm a sucker for action adventure, comedy and romance all in cinema screening. This week I went to see The Amazing Spider Man starring Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone. Now I’ve seen the Amazing Spiderman and I really enjoyed the new twist on the story line and I think Emma Stone is a great actor however, in this trilogy I felt it was a bit more ‘cheesy’ than the last one.

I think ‘comic book’ movies should have a small element of comically value as they are mostly targeted to an adult and child audience however, I think the balance between ‘comical’ and ‘serious’ is a little disjointed. Also there are various parts towards the film where you continuously feel like it is coming to an end which makes the film seem like it drags on a little bit (If you have watched the film, hopefully you will know what I’m talking about).

All in all, special effects are great but do not have the 'wow' factor. I would definitely give this a watch if you’re a marvels comic book fan, if not I’d maybe suggest something more action thrilling. My rating for this film is a 5 /10. 

What are your views on the film?

Tumblr

I have had Tumblr for quite some time now but with all my time spend doing university work I lost interest. Recently, I got back into using Tumblr but now to support my university work. I have found that using Tumblr to search for imagery within my modules has been not only inspiring but has also help me to keep reference of images might like to use in my projects.

My Tumblr is a mixture of personal interest in photography, food, creative pictures and outfit posts. To take a look at the latest images I have posted on Tumblr, click the link below now.

Places to Visit | Brighton Beach

Now who doesn’t love a beach? Well when it’s warm anyway.  Recently took a day trip to Brighton beach whilst the sun at its best. Brighton has been voted one of the top 10 city beach break destinations in the UK. Brighton beach and pier is a great day trip for family or friends, there is plenty to do. Whether it’s lying on the beach, playing games on the pier or visiting the famous choccywoccydoodah you won’t be stuck for things to do!

Shoe Pick | Slider Sandals

1 Whistles Maddy Double Band Mono Footbed Leather Slide £115

2 Zara Colour Bio Sandals £29.99

3 Zara Sandals with a Buckle £39.99

4 Vagabond Erie Zebra Print Woven Sliders £60

Now who would have thought it, slider sandals the latest footwear trend for S/S 14. I think this shoe trend is a little like marmite, you rather love them or you hate them and I’m all for slider sandals. Feeling comfortable and looking stylish at the same time, pretty much a win win if you ask me!

Slider sandals have been seen in many S/S catwalk shows including Micheal Kors and Chloe along with this a number of celebrities have also been seen following the trend.  I think these sandals are so versatile perfect for the beach to slip on and off or a sunny day in England and there are also sliders available for those of you who want a bit of added height to your look. 

What do you think of slider/footbed sandals, love or hate?
