Rosie's Round Up - 14

Suns out. Productivity in all aspects of my life has dropped and I am mainly spending my days wishing I was in the sun, or being it in (not enough of the latter unfortunately - bloody work)


Boyfriends birthday week has finally come to an end, not before a weekend of eating, drinking and laughing with our mates which was bloody brilliant. Not strictly on Monday buttttt....

Monday

Cracked out this outfit on the weekend, my lovely duster coat is about to be put away fro the summer so I wore it one last time with my fave & other stories dress.


Belt - Primark, Earrings - Topshop, Dress - & Other Stories, Coat - Urban Outfitters

Tuesday

Last Friday (this weekly round up is basically a lie) I went along to The Brighton Etsy Crafty Party and it was bloody brilliant! Amongst other things we all had to make a piece of bunting. There were Spice Girl cards galore so I chose a subtle theme and created this monstrous masterpiece


Even cooler, my faves Designosaur are in the new ETSY ad, check it!

Wednesday

Since I moved to Brighton 4 and a half years ago 'the new massive Topshop' has been discussed, and its finally (nearly) here!


I have always loved Topshop but not shopped there for ages as the current one in Brighton really is naff. Oh so very excited for this to open. Hopefully post pay day and with wonderful discounts (yeeeah right.)

Thursday

Being in Brighton makes you lazy. Fact.

Having know about AlCampo lounge for a while I have only just managed to get down there and its bloody lovely!

We shared Tapas, had a tasty cocktail and took in the delights of London Road (I mean that seriously, if there was ever a time to use the word 'up and coming' that road is it)


Full details on their website.

Friday

I think I am a bit late to this party but I have recently discovered The Beckerman Sisters and have fallen in love with them.


Their wardrobe looks so good. so, so good. And they normal sized, they clearly know their shiz and from the masses of reading I have done ina really short amount of time they seem pretty normal and cool. Their dogs are pretty cute to.


Dream out of the week is the AMAZING swishy skirt from Saloni. Already a massive fan of the swishy skirt, I would LOVE this in my wardrobe.


Teamed with these beauts from Jimmy Choo, oh the outfit potential!


I can but dream! :-)

Rosie's Round Up - Thirteen

Its my lovely boyfriends birthday this week so a lot of this round up will be birthday based, Hooray!

Monday

 To kick off this week in a good mood we headed down to Curry Leaf Cafe for a curry on Monday night. It was bloody delicious, especially the chicken kebab starter. Good prices, nice beer and fab food. What more could you want!


Tuesday

To make up for the Monday night curry, and the huge cake I knew was coming at the end of the week I have been snacking on these Nakds bars in the office. Luckily they are both healthy and tasty. I brought three with every intention of eating one a day for three days....alas they lasted me an afternoon. Still healthy though, right?


Wednesday

I brought this INCREDIBLE wrapping paper from Scribbler. I love this shop and get all my cards from there. When I saw this paper I just knew its was totes appropriate for my 31 year old boyfriends pressie.


Thursday

I am not a natural baker so I am really bloody pleased with how this came out! I followed this recipe and can confirm it tastes as good as it looks (a modest baker, me)


Friday

The last of our Ikea purchases worth blogging about! I am IN LOVE with the print of this duvet set. I would buy another and make it into a dress...but I feel that could be a touch to much...!


Ikea have so many lovely bed linens, check them out here.

Dream outfit (and only fashion mention!) of the week:
I love this embellished blazer from from Frock and Frill, and at £95.00 its not even than unattainable...c'mon payday!

These AMAZING Christian Louboutin shoes worn by Angelina Jolie, however, are slightly less attainable.


Promoting her film Maleficent, they are just pretty much perfect.

Until next week!

Rosie's Round Up - A very late TWELVE!

So after a two week hiatus which can only be attributed to lack of clothes/effort/things to say and a boyfriend with a new job that means he gets to sleep in thus get in the way of the morning outfit selfie, I am BACK!

After a mini/tactful rethink I am going to add any and all things I like into my daily round ups, so look forward to more posts of lifestyle, food, jewels, days out, and of course lovely clothes!

Monday

So to kick off, I was lucky enough to win a Rosa Pietsch necklace from a Twitter comp she ran last weekend, it arrived today and I ADORE IT.



You can check out her incredible stuff at her Katzeshop on Etsy

Tuesday

Myself and my boyfriend have been upgrading a few things in our flat. After a rather glorious trip to IKEA we have come back with a load of stuff we didn't know we needed (as per norm) and this great locker style TV cabinet.


I love the red, Simon loves the style. Hopefully one day we can create a home to our coined style mantra of "Industrial Vintage, ya", this addition plus a few others will keep us happy in the meanwhile though. :-)


Wednesday


In the never ending search for 'a snack that isn't that bad for you but is also really tasty' I have eaten a lot of stuff. Mainly rice cakes to be honest. Anyway, a mid week food shop resulted in these and oh my god they are AMAZING! Like Frazzles, but edible in massive handfuls. Check out all the other weird (but amazing) flavours on the Butterkist website.

Thursday

Its my darling sisters birthday today, the perfect excuse to get something lovely and nice! For her 22nd year I got her this amazing necklace from my number one fave jewellery brand Designosaur.



Check out more of there stuff here.

Friday

F for Friday, F for Fashion! My first and only fashion post this week. I long for the sin to be out (and my toenails to be polished!) so I can wear this incredible sandals from New Look


I will 100% shout "SPAAARTAAA" at some point whilst wearing them. Obvs.
Dream Outfit of the week....



These Mattijs x United Nude Fan shoes have stolen my heart, if in magic land, where I owned them I would prance around Brighton wearing them teamed with this BEAUTIFUL Henry Holland dress.


I can only dream :-)

Rosie's Round Up - Eleven

What a view!


A wonderful weekend in London town, going around on the cable cars and then a amazing meal at Lobster and Burger


Monday

Bank Holiday Monday meant a game of pitch and putt. Wearing a old classic jumpsuit from Miss Selfridge and Topshop cardi.


Tuesday

Totally crap outfit today (think old jeans and jumper, no post Bank Holiday Tuesday deserves a good outfit, especially in a job as crappy as mine!)


Good old Barry M nails  gave me something to write about, the black nail effect looks amazing with Rimmels white base colour! I love!

Wednesday


Kidding myself its sunny on this happy humpday!

Jeans and belt Topshop, top from H&M.

Thursday

I have stumbled across these bags from Jump from Paper and have pretty much fallen in love with them all. A purchase for post-pay for sure! Look at it! Amazing!


Friday 

Oldie but a goodie this Friday. Top and Skirt from H&M, jazzed up with Primark belt and some TGIF attitude!


Have a lovely weekend!

Stay wonky! xXx

Rosie's Round Up! - TEN

Incredible weekend with my family hanging out in a massive mansion, complete with its own Dove house and resident Doves!



Monday

I have said it before and I will say it again: work is even MORE naff after a amazing weekend.
Meh.


Todays outfit its vintage (ahem) Primark, which is just about all this mundane Monday deserves.

Tuesday



Suns out so legging and some flowery is on.

Dress is River Island, Leggings and Cardi H&M

Wednesday


Good old Aztec from New Look on this Happy Humpday

Thursday


This pic doesn't show off the really cool Urban Outfitters Tee I am wearing underneath, but its skeletons with swords, mega cool.

Friday

Thank freaking feck. In honour of this horrendously long week ending (with a secret good bit at the end) and then a lovely weekend to look forward to in London! Hooray!

Sporting my amazing Designosaur necklace with a H&M dress


Off to London for the weekend with my girls, I suspect that something not that dissimilar to the below will occur...


Until next week! Stay Wonky xXx

Rosie's Round Up! - Ninth

Crikey, I have been chatting rubbish about my clothes for nine weeks! And some people even seem to be reading it! 

Monday was a day of eating, being hungover and generally just slobbing on the sofa eating Lindt bunnies and Creme eggs. So no pic there!

Tuesday

Normally naff Tuesday is all the more better when its part of a 4 day week!


Quite a office-y look with the blazer from Topshop. Jeans, M&S, Jumper H&M

Wednesday




Happy Humpday! Skirt from Topshop, Top and Cardi H&M.

Thursday


Black 'lace' from H&M today. An amazing dress, completely inappropriate as its bloody boiling. I do not tend to wear black that much but have had this dress since Christmas and really love it.

Friday


Good old tartan Skirt from Vivien of Holloway, and another old faithful cardi from Topshop.

I am, I have to admit running out of clothes....

May be time for a blog switch up (again). Or I could just buy some more outfits. 

Hmmm.

Anyway, until next week!

Stay Wonky! xXx

Rosie's Round Up - 8

Awesome weekend with my best girls up the Heron Tower in London, and then going west to Bristol where we drank cider that looked like carrot juice and danced like maniacs! To much fun.

Chedder Valley cider equals...
Cheesy, cheesy grins! <3

 Monday

After such a lovely weekend, Monday seemed even more naff than usual. Operation 'sort life out at 27' is well underway, but it wont be done in this rather mundane outfit!


Saving grace is my aztec print cardi from Primark. Dress from Urban Outfitters.

Tuesday

Faux humpday die to glorious Bank Holiday weekend this week. Brand new floral jumpsuit from New Look teemed with crop from H&M.


It does look a *bit* mad, I will give you that. But I like it! Clash attack and all that jazz.

PRINT CLASH. AMEN.
Wednesday


Banana leggins humday y'all. Thats all I have to say on that.

Whole outfit is H&M.

Thursday


'I'm so bloody glad the Bank Holiday Weekend is here' 

Jeans, Topshop. Cardi, Tee and belt H&M

Friday

BANK JOLLY-DAY! Lovely day wandering around the lanes in the sun. It felt properly sunny so got out my fave blue blazer from H&M, teamed with my tartan circle skirt.


Amazing street eats from the Street Diner


Brisket beef never tasted so good.

Until next week, Stay Wonky! xXx

Round Up - Seven

After a weekend of pure gluttony, including this incredible roast from The Snowdrop in Lewes this week is going to be allll about the baggy outfits.

Worth ever delicious calorie.

Monday


Typically naff Monday morning outfit, just about saved by my Necklace from H&M.



New ASOS boots as shown in last weeks blog have already become a firm fave and look great with short skirts, can't wait for sun and legs out opportunities.  

Skirt, Primark. Cardi, Topshop. Necklace and Vest top, both H&M.

Tuesday



Wednesday 

Mid week pattern clash. Love this Topshop skirt, love the fact that I walked into my office and my colleague said that I "always pull of the clash" :-)


Skirt from Topshop, top from H&M

Thursday

Someone said I looked half goth and half children's presenter in this out fit. I can roll with that!


Skirt from H&M, both top and dotty tights from Primark

Friday

Day off from work and incredible surprise this Friday up in London!

Im wearing my new dress from & other stories and the pic is taken 40 floors up the Heron Tower at the Duck and Waffle! 


Had the most brilliant evening with my lovely best friends.


What a view!

See ya next week, stay Wonky xXx
