STYLE: WE KEEP ON CLIMBING

TROUSERS AND HEADSCARF - H&M, TEE - PRIMARK, SANDALS - CHICWISH, NECKLACE - BOOHOO, ANKLET - THRIFTED.

We've been having the most wonderful heatwave here over the past week, so i decided it was high-time i busted out not only the sandals but also the midriff! Oh yes. It. Is. Happening.

As I'm planning a holiday somewhere nice and hot later in the year, I'm on a mission to save some serious pennies over the coming months by restyling some older pieces in my wardrobe in the hopes that this will keep me and my credit card away from those pesky shops. I actually love finding new ways to wear things, especially old forgotten pieces that you find stuffed in the back of your wardrobe, so I'm thinking this could be a fun challenge. 

This is a pretty thrifty outfit as these trousers go way back to summer two years ago when i wore them in this post whilst strolling around Arthurs Seat. I love them so much and think the unique pattern means they're easy to style with a simple white or black tee. 

These Chicwish sandals are a regular in my wardrobe once the sun comes out as they instantly vamp up any outfit. I've had them for a year now and styled them previously with socks - because in very special, unique cases socks and sandals are acceptable - in posts here and here. Talk about thrifty!

Hope you're all enjoying the sun :)

STYLE: TAPS AFF

Well hey there sun! Where have you been all my life?? 

As soon as the sun comes out in Scotland, it's TAPS AFF, and it's amazing how many people you see wandering the city streets semi-naked and barefoot, as if we'd all been transported to Ibiza.

For me, i've only got so far as thick-woolly-tights off, which doesn't really have the same ring to it, as I've been trapped inside for work missing out on all this lovely summer weather. Fingers crossed it'll last, and then it'll not only be tights off, but also jumper and scarf off! Wooh!
