Lace Up Boots!!!

The new craze around seems to be lace up boots. And if i'm honest they aren't all bad. They aren't usually my type of thing but they look yummy comfortable!
The look around my town seems to be with massive socks showing at the top, which definately brings out the rock chic in people!
I personally do not own any as I am trying to save my money although they are very hard to resist.




I think that the best look for these are with tight skinny jeans that hug the legs as they have a bigger impact on the silhouette and rockness of the outfit. Wearing them with slouchy jeans, I feel would make them look very buildery work. Eeek.




In other news I am off to London for a day trip tomorrow, so shall take my camera and see the fashion crazes there.




What do you think of these rock-chic boots? You own a pair? You want a pair?

Easter

Sorry it has been a little while since my last post. My grandparents do have internet in their house, which was awful. I feel like I have been in hiding! But I'm out now, and I have my laptop and the internet.

And it's easter. I'm not religious, I just love the choclit [:
We had our annual easter egg hunt yesterday, which was very good. (But we then went onto watch The Dark Knight and man is that scary!!!)

How was your easters?


So. As it is easter, the retro movies come on TV. And this year it was Sound of Music!!!! What a classic movie. My siblings and I always used to act it out when we were younger; now I want to be Maria.
But the clothes are pretty amazing too. I have found some beautiful pieces that are inspired by The Sound of Music and the free-flowing attitude their outfits portray.






How amazing do they look?

The girls always wear dresses or skirts. Thats a must. There are so many cute girly pieces that I found like this skirt....

It's a lot more modern than the type of skirts they wear in the movie but it still has the same qualities. It's the right length and has the flowery pattern to it. Either add a pair of tights, but i recommend just adding a cute pair of simple pumps. Either strappy or not.

I love this bag. Okay, so none of the children really take bags anywhere, but we have so many essential objects these days that you cannot leave the hosue without one. And these types of bags are not only very cute but large as well (why not take it to school).
Summer hats are a must anyway. This is from topshop, and it very cute and simple. There are many out there so depending on your style, there is a hat to fit.



This patterned dress it more colourful than those worn in Sound of Music but still has the 60's feel to it, with the belt adding a bit more structure.







Other Sound of Music essentials include anything greeny. They were big on running around and ahving fun so nothing too tight fitting.
Also, a good thing to add is braces. They are very cute. Pair them with a cute pair of black shorts, a flowery top and some pumps!!!

Plus, any long socks or tights are a good look along with a hairband.




What do you think of The Sound of Music? And the clothes in the movie and in this post?
