OOTD: YOU CAN'T SURVIVE ON ICE-CREAM.


So this heatwave is pretty amazing and apart from a little shopping in the morning I spent the whole of yesterday in the garden getting a tan. It was so hot yesterday that I couldn't take Ruby (the dog) out for a walk until it got a bit cooler in the evening. Whilst on the walk I found this ethereal ribbon tree that made such a pretty background for some OOTD shots. 

 TOP - PRIMARK / SHORTS - PRIMARK  / SHOES - PRIMARK

I didn't realise until typing this that my entire outfit was from Primark! Since the top looks quite dressy what with the silver thread through it I thought I'd dress it down with some really basic monochrome dotted shorts. These are basically like running shorts plus they are super lightweight so they are perfect for this heat. 


I haven't been wearing foundation much this week because it just ends up melting due to the heat (attractive.) so I have just been using my trusty Collection concealer under my eyes and over blemishes. I bought the Barry M mascara a couple of weeks back and I know it has had a few mixed reviews but I just love it. 


The pretty ribbon tree. I don't know why but it reminds me of Florence & The Machine's 'Dog Days Are Over' video. 

NECKLACE- KUKEE / ARMLETS - CHARITY SHOP / RUCKSACK - PRIMARK

Again I'm wearing my Kukee crystal necklace but it's just so simple to wear and I think I will be buying a couple of the other colours. 

(If you were wondering about the lyrics in the title they're from The Kills 'Cheap and Cheerful')

Hope you are all well and having lots of fun in the sun.
