Kimye .

I hate to admit it but since the terrible pregnancy outfits Kim K was seen in last year I now actually really like her style. I've always liked her as a person, yeah she loves herself but a lot of women would love to have that much self confidence, but that carpet dress really made me rethink things.

But back to her present self or the Kimye relationship. Kanye is also VERY arrogant, which I just feel adds to their strength as a power couple. He seems like such a romantic - who would of thought!


And not forgetting the cutest baby ever - North West! Even matching colour tones with her mama. so cute. Kim Kardashians style is really improving and so is her life, lets be honest we are all jealous.

The recent wedding also was no surprise... amazing, more traditional than I thought it would be but I have to be honest though the dress from the back is like a 10/10 from the front its like a 3/10. No doubt this couple will be powering through 2015 as Mr and Mrs.

Checking out the competition .

So after my previous post I decided to look on missguided. I have admittedly cheated on ASOS... once. However after needing a dress for a night out and their 'next day delivery' not being next day I never used the site again. I am a very impatient person and the premier account from asos for £9.99 a year really had its money worth. 

However I have had seen alot of Instagram posts of missguided clothes and even though I'm currently not financially stable to purchase my summer wardrobe I have seen some amazing pieces. I'm a sucker for pastels atm and low and behold... missguided have nailed it.

Boyfriend shirt for £22.99 - love love love the colour and print!


These white shorts would be a great basic piece for my summer wardrobe at £9.99


And these white jeans - £24.99





This off the shoulder jumper looks like  a great fit for a low priced item.. £14.99 



I have a love/hate relationship with these skirts but atm i love this - espeically in the white
£17.99




Dogtooth- check. pastel - check. two piece- check.


This skater dress is such a lush colour and only £14.99



Also a few pieces I love from a darker colour tone:

This black jersey bralet is £6.99 and if I one day wake up with small boobs will be purchasing this.

Im a sucker for a LBD.. and this one ticks all the boxes plus its only £19.99!


This LBD is also £19.99.. two of my fave cuts!

£9.99 for dog tooth shorts - YES


From the Nicole for the missguided range this fish net crop is great for £20.00.



And last but not least my favourite piece is this checkered shift dress.. £24.99 may have to save my pennies for this one!




However I did find a few pieces which made me question the site.. for example word cup tops?


Wrong on so many levels.

Bye bye ASOS?

After being a loyal premier customer to ASOS throughout my undergraduate degree I had the heart renching postgraduate year of study with no student loan resulting in NO online shopping (I mean none whatsoever, so tragic). I even recieved an email asking me if they had done something to why I wasn't using the site anymore and they offered me a 25% discount code (it was like rubbing salt in the wound not being able to use it).
I have always loved ASOS with their generous discounts and reliable next day delivery which has saved me many of times when I have a wardrobe malfunction 24 hours before a night out. But I have to say with other online sites like missguided.com it doesn't suprise me that ASOS is on the downfall, espeically as it lowered itself to selling New Look and Primark. Don't get me wrong I shop at New Look and Primark but if I want something from there.. I would go into the store. The exclusivity of ASOS was that you couldn't buy it anywhere else? Just seems ridiculous to me to put a £8.00 primark top on the same site as your selling a £399.00 dress.  ASOS - KNOW YOUR MARKET.

I would still personally shop on ASOS as I love scrolling through their thousands of items and I find their clothes to be much better quality than sites like boohoo.com where EVERYTHING is basically see through; however I know a lot of my friends find the task of finding items of clothing on their time consuming. Maybe its time for a revamp and to return back to their exclusive identity - just hoping they always keep their online student discount (i still have 3 months left to reap the benefits of that bad boy).
