Beach Blues

Dress - TK Maxx

Flipflops - Fit Flop

Hola readers!

So the weather has been a bit shitty, and following an extreeemely muddy weekend at Secret Garden Party, I felt it was time to bring some beachy vibes back into your life, and well.. into mine. Nothing cheers me up quite like looking through holiday photos and we took some beautiful ones in Barcelona so here they are! If you didn't check it out before, Danie (instagram: @_luciaphotography), my wonderful best friend AND incredible photographer has been shooting these past few posts, so have a look at her page and give it a follow. 

I'm aware FitFlops are hilarious looking, but they are soo comfy and I don't care. Based on the insane views on my previous fitness post, small tip; these badboys have been the easiest way to tone my legs without having had the chance to go running or keep up with my normal regimes during the intense Barcelona heat. They actually have a 50% sale right now so I'd get in there before other fashionista's grab them all lmao.

I know summer brings that ridiculous stress to look perfect in a bikini but a lot of feeling good about yourself doesn't actually come from looking good. Not that I'm so great at it either, but it all starts with believing you look good and deserve to feel it! Blogging has been my outlet for that, finding a way to feel good about yourself whilst building your own confidence at the same time. Hope I've cheered up your rainy days and also you've enjoyed catching up!

Anyway, thanks for visiting elliemikaela as always, share and comment, it makes me extremely happy!!

Big loves and happy summer-ing!

Transitional Wear

 Grey Maxi Dress - H&m

Cardigan - Primark

Rucksack - Radley

Hiya everyone,

Back to the old style of posts, I keep finding new places around to shoot that don't involve me stepping outside!! This is a cosy number, long knitted layers. Perfect transition from winter to spring as it isn't too thick, but the long sleeve-ness is warm. Went hand in hand with my new-ish cardigan that turned out to be a pretty good investment, it goes with everything and I'm not bored of it yet so expect it in many more posts to come. This dress is basically a reaally long, long sleeved t-shirt, and it's not too tight which means you can sit down and eat in it without fear of looking pregnant and/or feeling uncomfortable. I bought this the other day online, and it arrived a few days ago. Due to clearing out my old stuff on ebay (elsmis2010 if you have a burning desire to buy it)  I have a few extra coins meaning I can online shop. Yay. When I bought this, I didn't think it through at all and well.. when it turned up I realised that I was a lot shorter than the model (duh) and that it is actually not a midi dress.. but more a maxi. Lucky I like it anyway because returning things online is an absolute nightmare. Recently returned my superstars because they were faulty and it has been the biggest headache, honestly I would rather trek to a store than go through that again. I seem to be going through a bit of a monochrome phase, so to lighten it up I added in a dark red lip liner, literally superdrugs own make but it's awesome and I'm pretty sure it cost me £1. 

Anyway, the ucas dread isn't over yet. *drastically rolls eyes* so this is where I shall leave this post.

The Savannah

Savannah Dress - Jones and Jones

Hello all!

First post of the new year, so I thought why not with a bang. The lovely people at Jones and Jones (click link for website) sent me this extremeeeeely sexy dress!! Thank you thank you J&J, I love it. They have the most adorable range of dresses that are really princessy, so you gotta go check them out!! Anyway, it's got way too nippy (pardon the pun) to shoot outside, so I thought this was a nice change for you. Apologies for the luminous skin, I know I look on the brink of death but that's just my natural beauty shining through. 

Hope everyone had a great new years and Christmas!!! I'm officially back on the work grind, the majority of my friends have returned to their Uni's and Ucas deadlines are looming. Sad stuff. If you want to see what I've been doing click the 'Fashion and Textiles' blog link at the top, it's really dull I warn you and there's much less boob! But if you're into that, go check that out and let me know what you think, feedback is so helpful for me.

Will keep this post seriously short and sweet as I have a million thing's to do, but huge shout out to Jones and Jones. I hope you like how I 'styled' it, now I just need an event to wear this too! If you want to get in contact with me, immediate links for social media profiles are at the end of this post, or click the 'contact' tab at the top of the page.

Big loves!!!
