What I've Been Wearing This Month : Isle Of Wight Festival, Mallorca & Using Octer

Well... it's been a while but I am still here - I promise! A Yellow Brick Blog is still well and truly alive.... it's jsut had a little nap!
I've missed blogging so much and this Summer I am determined to get this back on track with regular posts and activity!

So... what are we talking about today?

We're talking clothing.... and in particular what I've been wearing this past month! With the Isle Of Wight Festival and a quick trip to Mallorca I've seriously jumped into the swing of Summer and embraced showing a bit of skin!
Although the weather right now has been reaching for my cosy sweaters and waterproofs for the short time I had in the sun ... it was very enjoyable!


The Festival Co-Ord



I am obsessed with this co-ord from boohoo! I get a little worried about showing my mid-rift but this is the perfect shape and size for me to feel comfortable but still rock the trend! The high waisted shorts are a great fit and the long sleeves mean I don't even have to take a jacket!
Boohoo have recently been my number one place to shop - their range is so vast there;s literally something for everything plus the prices are brilliant, I've been so impressed with what you can get for your money there!


The Glam Night Out


Okay... I had wanted this playsuit for MONTHS! I loved the look of it but the original price of about £60 has seriously put me off.... along with the fact you can't wear a bra!
Flash forward to June and it's in the sale with only one left in a size 10.... kind of meant to be right? I headed more or less everywhere then to find something to keep my boobies under control!
Boohoo had a fab looking stick on backless thing which went upto a D cup so I thought it would be worth a try! For my boobs it's wan't the most supportive or sassiest looking thing but I was in Magaluf and it would do!
The sandals were a total bargain though - £10 not even in the sale... I can't wait to pick them up in black aswell!

Jackets
Camo Jacket : Boohoo*
Denim Jacket : Tesco - F & F




Well... it's England so I couldn't go far without a jacket now could I! These two have been my go-to's this whole month, from chilly festival evenings to travelling outfits to the airport! These jackets are fab staples to see me right through until Winter ... and both of them were such great value!

I'd wanted a camo jacket for.... well months and months .... but ones I kept coming across just weren't doing it for me! This is where Octer came in handy!
Octer contacted me recently to invite me to try out their awesome app/wesbite service! Nowadays with the countless e-mails I receive daily it takes a lot for me to get excited about something and get on board but with this it was easy, I was hooked!

Looking for something in particular? I always am! Whether it's a black dress, a midi skirt or a simple T-shirt, I've been known to spend hours flicking from site to site checking everything they have to offer in each option.... Octer is here to save you!

With Octer you can search whatever you may be after e.g. 'Camo Jacket' across all the sites you want to look through - for me this is ASOS, Boohoo, Missguided, New Look, Topshop and River Island mostly! 
This literally makes life SO much easier - you can see everything on one page with the prices and you can even put a special feature on it where you just search the sales!
I'm obsessed and highly recommend both the sire and the app!


Dinner Date With My Girls



Another amazing find via Octer! I was after a plain black playsuit for our last night in Mallorca and I thought instead of sitting on the internet for hours and hours browsing through all my favourite sites I'd head there and simply search them all at the same time! 

I LOVE this playsuit - such a fab fit and as body conscious as I am this had me feeling confident and girly!



The shoes are my Matalan babies - I saw them on Abby Clancy earlier this year and HAD to have them, only £20 and SO comfortable! I even wore them to travel in on my way to Mallorca - the perfect summer heel! (Now can I just get them in 5 different colours please?)
Fingers crossed this is the start to man posts coming this Summer :)

Fashion : Peek-a-Boo Playsuit

Lipstick : Mac Rebel
Boots : New Look

Well it's been a while since I uploaded a fashion based post and even though this month marks my 2nd whole year of blogging, it still makes me nervous! Putting my whole self out there is a little bit daunting but I really like doing them so I just have to be brave and hit publish!

Playsuits are a big love of mine, I'm not the skinniest of girls but I feel like they can be really flattering when you have a right style.
This floral beaut is from The Fashion Bible and it is one of their limited edition pieces! I dyed my hair pink earlier this week and popped a photo up on twitter and I think I had just as many tweets about the playsuit I was wearing as I did the hair change!

When I first looked at it I was so in two minds regarding the cut out section.... my boobs aren't my best feature so having them on show isn't something I do....ever... but I was off out with the girls for a few drinks so thought - why not!
I'm not overly confident with my body and it's still a bit bloomin' chilly here so I decided to pair it with some black tights and my favourite lace up black boots. (which I have soooo over-worn but I can't help it... I love them.)

I LOVE the pattern so much, although it's a dark floral it still has those bright pretty colours to help it fit into the Spring season. The fit (size M) is perfect for me, I'm a size 10-12 and it feels really comfy, it is quite short for me (I'm around 5 8") but the floaty material hides this, thank goodness!

48 Hours In Berlin : OOTD's

Hey guys, I'm back! Sorry for the lack of posts the last few days but I've been away in Germany so have been super busy and you know... sometimes actual life comes before blogging #sorry!

Three friends and I went to Berlin Thursday - Saturday and had the best time, we actually went to see Katy Perry on her Prismatic World Tour (again) but also found time to do lots of sight-seeing whilst there too, which was great!
Today's post is just a quick outfit post of 3 of the outfits I wore when there, I'd put up a few photos on both Twitter and Instgram and actually had a few people ask me where things are from so I thought why not pop it into a post for you all!
Sorry the photos aren't that in depth, I'll be honest and say my blog wasn't the first thing on my mind when away - which was actually really nice as I normally put way too much pressure on myself so it was good to just relax and enjoy everything while I was there - so the photos are just quick shots but hopefully you can get the jist and see everything!

Thursday Evening - Walk & Dinner (Me & the Berlin Wall!)
Jacket - New Look
Roll Neck - New Look
Skirt - New Look
Boots - New Look
Bag - H&M
(I like New Look.....)

Saturday Day - Bus Tour & Exploring
Hat - H&M
Jacket - New Look
Shirt - New Look
Jumper - Primark
Necklace - Primark
Bag - H&M
Jeans - New Look
Boots - New Look


Saturday Evening - Katy Perry At O2 World Berlin
Tiered Playsuit - Fashion Union 
Jacket & Boots - Same as above
Necklace - New Look
