Spend Vs Save...
I wanted to do a little spend Vs save for you but this time I wanted to do it a little different as I had already bought these shoes at such a bargain when I found them online at a more expensive price tag.
It was my birthday last Wednesday and with my money I headed over to Matalan. I love Matalan as you can find some really good bargains in there and they have some great on trend pieces!
These shoes for example I found them and instantly fell head over heels (;)) in love with them! I'm not much of a heel person for day time looks I am more of a casual converse kinda' gal but I think these are perfect for a day time look and still make it look laid back and casual. They don't have much a heel but still give you that bit of height.
So I purchased these right away and couldn't wait to get them on my feet.
As I got home I was searching through an online site called next2nowt (such a good bargain site!) and by chance these bad boys caught my eye!
They are from Topshop (but are now sold out on their website) and had a price tag of £90!! You can imagine the smirk on my face as I had just purchased a much nicer version (in my opinion) for £22!
So head over to Matalan now and get your bargain or if you prefer the Topshop ones from Next2Nowt click here to get ya hands on them but be quick because when they're gone they're gone and they are only £40!
I'll be doing a birthday post soon of all the pretty things I have bought with my birthday money so come back soon! :)

Wedding bells
So on Saturday I went to my first wedding in 7 years (!) and it was a complete nightmare finding an outfit but as soon as I saw this in River Island (one week before the big day) I knew it was the perfect dress!
I have been wanting to start doing outfit posts and as soon as my eyes caught this beauty I knew it would be the perfect outfit to start them off.
The wedding was at Van Dyk Hotel in Clowne so we booked a room and stopped over for the night. So that meant I had the excuse to take another outfit with me just incase I wanted to change but once I had got this bad boy on I was not taking it off!
I also went and had my hair done at the hairdressers that morning so you can imagine what a laugh it was when me and my boyfriend was trying to get it over my bun without messing my french plait up! And it is unbelievably heavy so it was a task getting it on but once it is on, you don't even feel the weight.
The only bad point about this dress is if you don't keep an eye on it then the lining of the dress can ride up and you will be showing your underwear to everyone around you! It isn't easy to go to the loo either but I managed it and nothing was stopping me from wearing this all day and all night! Also, I personally think I deserve a gold medal for wearing my heels for 13 hours straight!
Fashion is pain ;)

Motel - Swimming with style
As soon as I received the email from Motel about this competition, I knew I had to enter.
I have had my eye on this two-peice and I gotta get my hands on it!
I haven't got a holiday booked as of yet this year, but I have worked my butt off for 7 months trying to make my little fashion store work which I am so proud of and I think it's about time I treat myself and book a little get away so this bikini would be the best gift to take with me!
Play Reserved Beach Towel - (from) £9.98
H&M Aztec Bag - £14.99
Topshop Sunglasses - £14
Missguided cap - £8.99
River Island jelly shoe - £18
My favourite colour is white (if you call it a colour, as it is all colours?!) so this bikini caught my attention straight away. Not to mention white also enhances your tan so this is actually my ideal bikini as I am so pale!
I love the floral print and the dash of colour here and there and the strap just completes the look. The strap can also be removed which is perfect for the tan lines.
I have paired my bikini with the pink jelly sandal shoe from River Island as I love to just be able to chuck on my shoes and head for a hotdog and chips when around the pool.
Everyone needs a hat when on holiday and this one is perfect for me as I love caps. I also like to tie everything in colour-wise so these also go well with the jellies.
Next, the sunglasses. These beauties are from Topshop and I NEED to get them.I also love them in white which matches this bikini brilliantly.
The bag is from H&M and is perfect for the beach. I took a clear one with me on my jollies last year and what a regret that was! It went a funny colour and it wasn't pleasant to carry around by the end of the two weeks, not to mention everyone could see my belongings! Not the best idea i've had. So this aztec drawstring bag would be perfect!
When I have a super cute bikini on, I don't like to cover it up but when you're heading into the diner for food I think it's just polite to cover up a tad so this tie dye top paired with some shorts would be the best to wear just to grab your dinner in. And the best part is, it's also backless so you can still show off the print on your bikini underneath. It's then easy to whip off as soon as you get back to your sun bed to carry on with the tanning and show off your swimwear!
...Who doesn't need a reserved towel to put on your sunbed!?
You can also get 20% off all the great items on the Motel website if you enter kayleighwilson at the checkout! :)
