Hi Reader!

I love making these little Style Steal posts, so I thought I'd make on for one of my favourite movies ever:
The Notebook.

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink

To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Mean Girls I decided to create a Style Steal for the movie of the decade focusing on skirts!

First up, for the casual mall trip, is the Regina George look:

Leather skirts are definitely a craze at the moment (at least they are where I live!) so you'll fit right in with this gorgeous faux leather skater skirt  from Miss Guided for £11.39. Miss Guided also have loads of other leather skirts - asymmetric, zips, the works! Team with a simple pink cardigan and you are practically Regina's twin, this one is from New Look for £9.99.

If you are a true Plastic and want to copy Regina exactly then you can grab her "A Little Bit Dramatic" tee here for just £14.99!
Finish this off with a coffee cup and a cute handbag and, hey presto, you have the look!

Next, the girl who thought tartan was like so fetch waaaay before this season: Gretchen Wieners

Most of this girl's outfits throughout the movie include a tartan skirt and as it is this seasons must have print I have found two very different skirts for her Style Steal! The lush pale pink A-Line is from Miss Guided for £19.99 and the bright blue wrap with a buckle just like Gretchen's is from River Island for £25.00! Both tops are also from River Island for £10.00.

And Finally, Karen Smith, who may say some silly things but that has not effected her fashion sense!

I don't know about you guys but I absolutely love a simple tube skirt with a gorgeous print and this one is from H&M for £7.99! They can be paired with any basic top for an easy-going summer look. But as this is a Karen look it has to be paired with a slogan vest; you can get this "Normal is Boring" one here for £8.91.

(Shoes £29.99, Zara - Bag £30, River Island)

I hope you enjoyed this Style Steal, more to come soon! Happy Anniversary Mean Girls!

Carrie's Back For A Brand New Season!

Hi there!

If you didn't know, the new Carrie Diaries season begins in a week! That's right all you Carrie Bradshaw wannabes, Season 2 hits The CW on October 25th! 

So to celebrate the forthcoming new episodes, I thought we could take a mini wonder down memory lane and look at the best of Carrie's fashion from the first season! 

Unfortunately, a lot of the clothes come from American brands, so it can be very expensive for us English ladies to fly them over. Also most of them aren't available to buy any more, which is so sad! However, I have tried my best to find similar items! Enjoy!

First, is this gorgeous Pink one shoulder sequinned dress that Carrie wore in episode 8.

It is so gorgeous and perfect for a night out, but it is rather expensive...for more details click here. For those of you, like me, who operate on a more High Street budget I have found some alternatives:

(L-R) £59.00, TopShop; £65.00 ASOS; £45.00, TopShop

Next up is this cute and totally wearable knitted jumper from episode 7! It is originally from J Crew but it is no longer available...

...not to worry though! I have been doing some searching around and have found some lovely jumpers quite similar to it. I love the Oasis jumper with it's very on trend collar, I might have to buy it!

(L-R) £17.99, New Look; £45.00, Oasis; £30.00, ASOS.

And Finally, this pretty peplum top from ModCloth, which Anna Sophia wore in episode 12. Again, no longer available.

I really like the cut of a peplum shirt as I am one of those girls with big hips and a small waist, they really extenuate me in all the right places!

 

(L-R) £30.00, Yumi; £78.00, ASOS; £20.00 River Island

So those are my favourite items from the last season! I am so excited to see what the new season brings! Comment below what you are most excited to see in the new series of The Carrie Diaries!!
