Ibiza Rocks!

I'm not going to lie, when the girls first asked me if I wanted to go to Ibiza with them this year I said no, when they told me Bastille were playing I found myself £500 down and booking a week off work. 

In the run up to this holiday I was forever telling people I'd only be going the once with no intention of coming back. But when our week came to an end I was very reluctant to get on the plane home.

From planning all my evening outfits and hammering them out on Instagram (apologies) to making friends with the man at the kebab shop, I can honestly say I've had one of the best weeks of my life.

Co-ord Top and Skirt - Missguided // Trainers - As Before

And let's not forgot about the whole reason I booked this holiday in the first place, Bastille. As we stayed at the Ibiza Rocks Apartments ticketed events at the main hotel were included in our stay so we could just stroll up the road whenever we felt like it really.

I've seen Bastille around 5 times now and I still can't get enough. It was the perfect opportunity to see them preform in such a small environment which I think are the best gigs you can go to. They never disappoint and I'm so incredibly happy that wanting to see them led me to having an amazing holiday with the girls.

Kimono - H&M // Swimsuit - River Island // Flatforms - Office

We booked quite a lot of our events before we went, meaning we got to make the most of our time there! Our first day was spent at Ocean Beach which was amazing, but very expensive. If you are thinking about going I would highly suggest paying for a bed. It is a lot of money but you do get the majority of that back to spend on food and drinks. I would recommend taking even more though because the cheapest bottle of Vodka is 275 euros, so you're going to need some extra spending money!

As the week went on we also attended My House by Martin Solveig at Pacha, Craig David's TS5 Pool Party and Radio 1 in Ibiza at Hi Ibiza! I am sorry for the lack of photos from these events, I was simply having too much of a good time!

So what was meant to be a 'you've got to do it once holiday' I think it's safe to say I will be returning next year!

Summer means Swimwear!

We may only have a couple of weeks left for this British summertime but the sun is always shining somewhere and let's face it, it's more often somewhere other than the UK!

I don't know about you guys but I feel like there is so much good swimwear out this year so I thought I'd share my top 5 favourites with you!

First up!

Stripe Heaven from Asos

£22

I'm not the only blogger lovin' this swimsuit and its not hard to see why! With a plunging neckline and crossover back it's flattering and bound to have you looking amazing on the beach! There's something so simple about this style but I think that's why it looks so great.

Missguided does Marble

£20

This is one of two Missguided swimwear pieces to feature on this post. I'm literally obsessed with what they have on offer right now. Marble is one of my favourite prints and I'm clearly not the only one as this is currently only available in a size 14. There is one little thing I'm not mad keen and that's the briefs. I'm not so much of a fan of having this much bum out personally but I don't have anything against anyone who is confident enough to pull this off!

Hello H&M

Top // £8.99 - Bottoms // £8.99

I feel like this is the least 'dressy' set but that can always be a good thing. When you're on holiday you want to wear something comfortable but still looks good. I always feel like bikini's are always good for that desired sun tan. The lace up detail makes it that little bit more girly alongside the coral colours. Perfect for lying around the pool in or going on adventures in the sea, just make sure the big waves don't steal your bottoms!

Missguided Strikes Again

£28

First things first, these eyelets are amazing! Being strapless means no strap marks! This beauty comes in a range of colours so if you're wanting something a little bit brighter than black, then Missguided have you covered. I think this style is so flattering and perfect for anyone who isn't too keen on showing their tum.

Red Hot in River Island

£28

Now I have saved the best til last! This is my favourite of all the ones I've chosen, so much so that it came to Ibiza with me last week! This is the costume that I chose to wear to Ocean Beach so it's kind of a big deal! I love everything about this one especially the tie at the front! Not the best for tan lines but who cares when it looks so good!

The colour is something completely different for me too but I love it! For me it shouts out summer and is definitely going to stand out!

So there you go! I'm currently sat recovering from the best week in Ibiza and wondering where I want to jet off to next. Stay tuned for my Ibiza post where I'll be filling you in with everything I got up to!

Club Tropicana

British summer time is so confusing! One minute I feel like I'm on holiday, the next I'm dressed like its winter. I guess that's something we should have got used to by now.

A couple of weeks back I purchased this amazingly tropical jumpsuit and I'm pretty sure you guys are going to be pleasantly surprised at where it's from. Drum roll please... this go to summer look is from the Tu range at Sainsbury's. At only £22 it's great value for money and something that I'll wear for all kinds of occasions.

I don't normally shop at supermarket brands, and I don't really have a reason why, maybe I get distracted by the food, but I'm so glad I took the time to have a look around and see what was on offer.

Fingers crossed now that Manchester stays sunny, but lets be honest, the umbrellas will always have to be on hand.

So there it is! Perfect for dressing up or down and something that is going to see me through the summer whether that be in the UK or abroad.

Let me know what you guys think about supermarket fast fashion trends and if you've got a favourite that you always pick up some bargains from. I'll definitely be keeping my eye out from now on!
