Hawaii Dream Holiday Location with Avenue 32

I was invited to do this post with Avenue32 on my dream holiday Location with a chance to win some new sunnies from the Avenue32 website. As you all know I am a huge sunglass hoarder and just couldn't say no.
I desperately want to go to Hawaii so when they asked what my dream holiday I knew my exact location immediately and I have already planned what I want to do there (I'm hoping if me and jim ever get married we go here for our honeymoon).
I have created three outfits all from the website to suit my locations and now want to buy everything but my bank just wont let me (sigh) so here goes...

Waikiki beach




Waikiki Beach is one of the most famous beaches in Hawaii and is know for its white sand. I've gone for quite  geometric come nautical coloured prints. Edging up the outfit with cat eyed sunglasses and leather tasseled gladiators. 


Friday Night Fireworks


If I ever go to Hawaii I am defiantly staying at the Waikiki Beach Hilton, and whats more romantic than a firework display. I've gone for a City Glamour outfit with a structured dress, and excessively Cat-eyed sunglasses. I love this clear clutch bag and the inner bag allows you to have some privacy.


Foster Botanical Gardens



Every holiday with James I go on, I seem to always end up walking around a nature park. We both are so interested in weird plants and animals. I thought the hint of snake print and the ever so Adam and Eve apple bag I would fit in to the heavenly gardens perfectly. I love the leather layered shorts paired with a more feminine gem belt and neon yellow always looks amazing with a tan.

So these are the outfits I put together and I honestly want them all! I hope one day I get to go to Hawaii and experience all the things I have mentally planned. Please let me know what your dream holiday location if money and time was no object?

lots of love xo

Sorry its not a snazzier 100th post...
These pictures aren't the best so I do apologise. I had to drag James out in the rain and he wasn't to impressed. We just pottered around Guildford with my mum and step dad today doing a bit of light shopping.  I hardly wear this chain anymore but I love it so much, I got it years ago and used to wear it with everything.
I'm also so bored of my grown out hair look, on thursday I'm finally getting my hair done so I can maybe be blonde properly again I'm not 100% sure yet. I have posted a few pictures on my Pinterest (check my pins out HERE) of hair colours I really like and would love some opinions!

Lots of Love xo

ASOS- T-shirt Dress
ZARA- Beaded Statement Necklace
TOPSHOP- AUBREY Chunky Boots

Hello the most photo heavy post in the world of blogging. It's been my Step-Dads 60th birthday and not everything is going well at the moment so we wanted it to be super special to brighten the mood. We have ended up doing loads of nice things like afternoon tea at Fanny's Farm (Yes I know hilarious name) and that is were all the photo's have come from. We also went to london today and had Lunch at Fortnum & Mason were I couldn't help buying some floral crockery and Macaroons. Last things last we went to an amazing Italian restaurant near my old, old, old house (I wore my new blue dress pictured above). 
Anyway I cant stop wearing my new Topshop boots I love them to death, they rub a little but I think they just need to be worn in. Sadly the UK is going back to its rubbish weather but hay-ho we had a few nice weeks.
Lots of Love xo
