It was a hard week at work this week, so it couldn’t be helped when I started searching for the best pieces to buy online. I can’t help it. Retail therapy is my chocolate, my comfort. But looking through all the choices, made me realize that I have nothing to wear for summer. Go figure. I haven’t made the adjustment between spring wardrobe to summer wardrobe yet. In fact, I don’t have anything for my summer wardrobe. It’s the constant thought of ‘I need new clothes.’ And I suppose of months trying to not splurge, I do need new clothes. Better yet, I deserve new clothes. And because of the non-splurging, I have some actual real money I can spend on a new wardrobe – that’s two reasons. I don’t need a third.

These are my top fave fifteen pieces to buy online this week:

The funny thing is, I’m not even halfway done. This covers only a few of the outfits I’m planning on rocking this summer. But my expensive taste really doesn’t help me. But you’ve got to have a good balance, sometimes you need to step away from the high street and really treat yourself. It doesn’t get to happen often, but when it comes around it’s like a mini-Christmas. If you’ve been second guessing yourself about something you’ve wanted for a while, then get it! I bet you deserve it! There’s nothing wrong with treating yourself once in a while!

It’s the same story every time I travel. I need a whole new wardrobe to go. At least three outfit choices a day, not including travel outfits. The checklist doesn’t end there. A cute passport holder, a cute suitcase and hand luggage to match. But I just don’t need a bag for the plane, I need a bag for the beach, and a bag for a night out. And the list is born, the shopping trips endless… but it all starts with the travel bag.

The Travel Savvy:

Carry on luggage is a must. Especially when you’re a girl who has a lot to bring. My carry on luggage typically has to be a mix between a handbag/duffel. I want the handbag element for style, and a duffel; for space. But thankfully with many on the market, it means I get to travel in style.

The Rockstar Of Rucksacks: 

This is my all time favorite, and it really makes for an effortlessly stylish look. There are so many cute backpacks, that it’s no wonder I haven’t ended up with hundreds. But if you’re more of a light packer the mini rucksacks are perfect. With only room for the essentials, you’re an easy going girl, who just needs a good book, her charger and of course her purse!

The Stylish Jetsetter: 

What makes me fell less guilty about splurging on a new bag to use for traveling is that I know I can use it again at home. I always pick a stylish bag, which is good for getting me from A to B but can be used anywhere, anytime. Plus a matching bag, to go with your travel outfit isn’t an awful thing!

Who can blame us for wanting to dive into the denim on denim trend? I, for one, have been too scared to try it in the past. It can seriously go wrong and no one wants to be remembered for their bad outfit choices. But the fashionistas of Instagram know that denim on denim 2017 is too hot to miss. And I have major double denim envy. It’s an effortless, cool style that’s an easy fashion choice. Take a look at our tips and picks of how to pull it all off, and see if we can bring you over to our side! I’ll see you in denim heaven!

#1 Shrug it off

Definitely the hottest trend at the moment, and entering summer with a bit of sex appeal never hurt anybody. You’re basically transforming your jacket into a top, tightening it around your waist and slinging it off your shoulders. Adding a touch of red to this look (on your lips, shoes, and bag) it will only add to the wow-factor of this look!

2 Break it up 

If denim on top of denim is a bit too much for you, break it up with your favorite logo tee. It’s our favorite look right now, especially with the new feminism t-shirt trend that look likes it’s just getting started. There really isn’t a better look with jeans going around at the minute, join in!

3 Make it clash

Get clashy, it’s the only way it works with denim on denim and it’s your time for some fun. You don’t want to have a Britney denim disaster. Your outfit should look just thrown on, in that fabulous effortless kind of way. It’s the old school, cool girl vintage double denim look. It’s supposed to be relaxed, so don’t think about it too much!

4 Play around with shades 

This is also another good start for those scared of the double denim trend. But it’s probably the easiest for you. Every sweet girl takes on this trend at least once in her life. Classically pairing your favorite denim dress with a different shade denim jacket. It’s making shades, and doing it effortlessly – going from beach chic to bonfire babe in seconds!

5 Match the right way

Sometimes matching denim can make some interesting, fashion forward looks. But it’s an easy one to get wrong because you don’t want to look like a cowgirl. In order to match denim, you need to play with the shapes and cut the fabric. You need to create some edge to your outfit, otherwise, you’ll look too blended.
