The Return of Denim

Gucci

Tommy Hilfiger

This summer, the fashion industry is all over denim. On the S/S 2015 catwalk, the likes of Burberry and Gucci demonstrated just how denim should be worn- but that doesn't mean you can't rock it too. Having spent a few hours longer than I probably should have internet-shopping this week, I have selected my top picks on what you should be wearing this season.

Fendi

Burberry

Perhaps my favourite find of all is this gorgeous shift dress. Paired with some boots and a flower headband, this dress would be perfect for one of this summer's festivals.

Monki: Stella Denim Dress, £30

You can simply never go wrong with a shirt. Wear as a jacket, tuck into a skirt or just wear with a pair of leggings, the probability of buying a denim shirt and regretting it is very, very unlikely.

TopShop: MOTO Fitted Western Shirt, £29

Arguably the most popular choice of denim attire at the moment is this skirt, with buttons lined down the front. It's smart, it's cute- it can be worn to have any effect you so desire. A serious must-buy.

Cooperative by Urban Outfitters: A-Line

Denim Skirt in Blue, £39

Just look how adorable this playsuit is. Wearing this with a massive, floppy hat, sunnies and some gladiators could win you the look of the summer.

New Look: Light Blue Denim Roll Sleeve Playsuit, £22.99

This sweet bra-and-skirt combo is the epitome of festival fashion. Nobody wants to feel too restrained in their summer clothes, and this outfit will provide the coolness you need on a sweltering summer day (that's if these days even exist in the UK...)

Monki: Denim Bra Top, £20 and Midi Denim Skirt, £25

Last, but by no means least, is this incredible denim boilersuit. Not only a winner for this season, this all-in-one will never look dated, and can also be worn in any season without a problem.

TopShop: MOTO Indigo Utility Boilersuit, £65

Accomplishments.

Summer is well and truly over. In fact, it had ended over a month ago, but only in the past week have I fully accepted that the weeks of going out in just a t-shirt and shorts are finished for the year. To say that my summer was an adventure would be an understatement. Interrailing across Europe, flying out of the continent for the first time and getting a place at university... These past three months have been simply unbelievable. As I closed that Mathematics exam paper for the last time on 24th June 2016, I had little idea that my summer would be the whirlwind that it was. One week on, and I had flown to the Netherlands for the beginning of eighteen days of walking 30,000 steps a day, train journeys and simply incredible sights. Four weeks on, and I had flown to New York City for, undoubtedly, my greatest holiday. Five weeks on, and I had flown inter-continent to the Sun State of Florida. Seven weeks on, and I had received my A-Level results, which I was fortunately absolute...

Is this real life- or is this just fantasy?

Admittedly, I have never considered myself a fantasy type of person. Except for my slight obsession with Harry Potter, little of the literature I read, the films I watch and the TV series I follow falls under the fantasy genre. Until recently, that is. One month ago, I finally got round to watching 'The Lord of the Rings'. It took fifteen years after the first movie came out for me even to consider watching it. It's long. It's got elves in it. Why would I want to watch it? Now, I know that there are many reasons why I would want to watch it. Full to the brim with action, the scenery is breathtaking, the antagonists are perfectly abhorrent and Orlando Bloom makes one lovable elf. Frankly, it's got everything I could wish for in a movie- with the addition of Gollum and a couple-thousand Orcs. I liked the first movie so much that, within the week, I'd watched all 10 hours of the trilogy. 'Two Towers' is now in my top 10 all-time favourite films. ...

This Could Be the Start of Something New...

Yes, that is a reference to High School Musical and, yes, I am still referencing High School Musical eight years after it came out... But, like Troy met Gabriella, I have just met someone knew: you! So, to introduce myself... Firstly, my name is Florrie. Yep, just Florrie; not Florence, not Florian (I have been called that before), just Florrie. A few weeks ago, dismayed at the fact I'd still never met someone else called Florrie, I googled the history of the name. And, what did I learn? I learnt that the name 'Florrie' peaked in popularity in the 1890s. My name is ancient. Moving on from my name, I should probably talk about my likes to prepare you for what is to come on this blog. My likes include... Dogs Since a very young age, I havebeen a huge admirer of the canine-kind. Whether they're tall or small, curly or straight, the odds of me wanting to take home a dog are pretty high (with the exception of the dogs that take a disliking to my dog, obviously). Four...
