Elton Inspired

Hello all. Another post today from sunny Bristol. Baring my legs for all too see, and it was even sunny enough today to actually need my Elton John style sunglasses! I always feel a bit like Lady GaGa when I wear these sunglasses which isn't necessarily the look I want to go for, but I actually love these glasses! Always get funny looks of people when I wear them. 

I had a nice relaxed weekend and took a visit to Swindon Designer Outlet with my Boyfriend. Obviously it was payday so I will be showing and telling you about everything I brought in tomorrows post.

The Sun is Up

I don't know about where all of you may live but in Bristol the sun has been shining, so what a perfect opportunity to get my legs out and have an outfit post in the garden! If I'm honest its quite windy so I won't be getting into my bikini just yet, but I think we can all admit that summer is finally here!

My weekend went pretty quick, as you'll know I mentioned in my last post that I went over to Cardiff for a friends Birthday. It was so good to see all the girls and celebrate. We drank and danced the night away finishing the night of with food at Burger King (classy girls we are!) If you follow me on instagram I'm sure you will have seen all the pictures - if you would like to follow me its @fashionunderdog.
I spent most of sunday being hungover and catching up on the voice (Will.I.Am - love of my life!!)

Payday is literally in reaching distance (friday!) There is so many beautiful things which I have my eye on so I will defiantly do a post to show you my purchases over the weekend.

This dress which I'm wearing is from Topshop, I brought it in about September last year so didn't get to wear it much. I had kind of forgotten about it which sounds bad, but when I spotted it in my wardrobe this morning and I saw the sun blaring through my windows I knew it was a perfect day to wear it again.

I have the day of work on Thursday so hopefully it will be sunny and I can do another outfit post in my garden again!

Would love to hear how your weekend was and if you got up to anything nice. I love hearing your comments on my outfit posts - feel free to ask my any questions too.

Dressed Down Friday

Finally an outfit post!! I'm sure this is what your all thinking. It feels like its been a while but I finally have had my heating fixed and I have hot water too which is amazing! I can stop living at my boyfriends house and come home to reality

I'm going to Cardiff for a wild night out this weekend for a friend Clare's Birthday, there is about 10 off us who are going to be painting the town red. So if your around in Cardiff on Saturday night - watch out for a group of heavily fake tanned girls!

I brought this hat from Topman about 3 weeks ago now, and I have literally lived in it ever since. I never realised how great hats were for bad hair days or if you just simply can't be bothered to wash your hair. Beanies seen to be the 'big thing' at the moment both in mens and womans fashion. Last week I ordered myself neon beanie of eBay so watch out for that in recent outfit posts.












Where From?
Blouse - Topshop
Jacket - French Connection
Leggings - Primark
Collar Chain - Primark
Hat - Topman
Shoes - Topshop


Sorry the photos are a bit messy today - I had to get my mum to do them and she is awful when it comes to using a camera, hence the blurry pictures. I think it will defiantly stick to the normal photographer which is my dad in the future!

Would love to know what your think of my outfit post, as always :)
What your plans this weekend - I would love to know.

Weekly Want #10

So its been a while since I did a weekly want post. But I actually can't believe this is the 10th week I've been doing it. Anyway here goes.... 
I am literally in love with all of Zara at the moment, really hoping someone will generously buy it for me all (no chance!) Their jewellery in particular is incredible so there is a necklace in my weekly wants from Zara this week.
The other item is a playsuit from MissGuided its actually gorgeous, it looks like its straight of the catwalk, with a really interesting detail on the front. I have to admit, I haven't actually ever brought anything from MissGuided before but this playsuit is going to be a first... now I just need to find a perfect occasion to wear it!





Playsuit - MissGuided
Price - £32.99


Necklace - Zara
Price - £22.99



As always I love hearing your comments and feedback on all my posts. Have any of you brought anything nice recently?

I have an outfit post ready and waiting to post later on in the week. 
Thanks for reading.

Bubbleology, Soho, Londdon

So as you will all know I took a visit to London last weekend. I had heard about these bubble tea drinks from various friends and online, so I just had to give it a go myself. The company which make the drinks is called Bubbleology, they have now opened a few shops around London, but I decided to go to the one in Soho.
Apparently bubble tea is really popular in China, and South East Asia.  

Bubble tea comes in various different forms, from flavoured fruit teas and milk teas served hot or cold hot with chewy natural tapioca balls that you suck up through a straw. When I first heard about the bubble tea, I thought it was a bit of a weird concept but I really would recommend anyone to try it. 



I went for a mango and passionfruit tea, it was nice but if I am honest it tasted just like fruit juice. The price was a little expensive too, but I guess its not something you would have all the time, so its nice to have as a one off.










Have any of your tried bubble tea and what did you think?

Appologies again for all of my short and infrequent posts recently, the heating in my house is still not fixed and sadly I don't even have any water at the moment. Honestly its awful! I have been trying to avoid being in my house as much as possible.

Hope you all have some lovely plans for the weekend, would love to hear what your all up too. Sadly I am in work all weekend boooo!

Thanks for reading, as always.

London Calling

So as all of you will know from my last post I popped into London for the weekend with my mum. I always love going up to London, It just weirdly feels like home? That sounds weird because I have never lived there but soon in the future I intend too. It makes me so happy when I am there. 


Where From?
Jacket - Topshop
Jumper - Topshop
Jeans - Topshop (Coated Leighs)
Shoes - Ebay
Fur Scarf - Off a Topshop Coat
Hat - Topman


Me and my mum met her friend and his son and went to Lunch at the Tate Modern. We had an amazing view from the top floor restaurant, and the food was gorgeous. For starter I had scollops with bacon and cauliflower, followed by the famous fish and chips for main. There was a couple sat next to us who had come for afternoon tea, I had slight food envy because it looked incredible so next time I am back in London I may have to go back for afternoon tea.




I was really gutted as we didn't actually end up going to the Roy Liechtenstein exhibition because it was too busy, and we couldn't wait around because we were going to see a show in the evening. We went to see Bodyguard which I really would recommend anyone to go and see if you are in or around the London area.

I did manage to snap up a few pictures in the Tate Modern for you, I must admit I don't think I entirely appreciate all forms of modern art, with most of it I'm sure I could have done it myself and that it saying something! Thats just my opinion anyway.
















As always I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions.
