3 weeks to go

So as you know after my post the other day, it's only 3 weeks to go until I go off to Reading Festival, I still have so much to buy but I'm on a tight budget.
I've been trawling through various websites all day, to find cheap and good wellies. I finally went onto the Topshop website, however are their wellies any good? Also will they fit my larger calves? 


These are pretty impressive as they are 'glow in the dark' and at £26 it seems like they are a bargain, however are they just going to fall apart as soon as I start walking across a muddy field?! 
Welly shopping is annoying and expensive.

Festival Footwear

So I'm going to Reading festival this year, which will be my first ever festival! I have my tent sorted and I'm driving a bunch of friends up on the Wednesday night, however I haven't got any footwear sorted for the weekend! 
I was thinking along the lines of some Doc Martens or some Wellington boots, however I don't want to spend a fortune on both sets, but I do want me feet to keep dry.
Is anyone else going to a festival this year, that knows exactly what shoes you should take?

What I Wore on Holiday #2


This is what I wore on the last full day of our holiday, it was super hot and I know black isn't always the best colour to wear in heat, however the floatiness of it counteracted the heat. I bought it from New Look as I needed a new black maxi, as my other one is made of a thicker cotton and that would definitely be too hot to wear in 30+ degree heat! 
It was around £16, it is light and airy and also has pockets...like a lot of my skirts nowadays! I put it with another New Look purchase, this time by my mother, she bought me a few tops the day before going away, they were just from the sale so nothing expensive but great for holiday! 
I haven't worn a 'boob tube' in years, but I love this one. The pattern is great and I love how it's mixed with the vibrant colours and it is so comfortable. (This meant I wore it on the plane back to England as well -because of sheer comfort) 
Again I have worn it with my Urban Outfitters round shades, an anchor necklace I bought from Forever 21 about a year ago and my black sandals from New Look, which you can't see in the photograph however you can read a post on them if you click here - Sunday Sandals post 
Enjoy the sunshine

What I Wore on Holiday #1


I wore this outfit in the evening, as the crop top was too hot to wear in the day time. We went to restaurants most nights and I wanted to wear something different  from what I wore in the day time. I have just realised nearly my whole outfit is from Topshop (woops) 
I bought the sandals ages ago for £22, I found that walking around in them all day they became very uncomfortable! However they were great for wearing out in the evening as they were cool and they went with a lot of things. 
I wore it with a skirt I bought in the sale, for £15, which couldn't go a miss! I love the pattern and the fact it has pockets! I love pockets in skirts so much, not sure why but I love them. I can't be the only one, am I?
I then added my sky blue crop top which was £8 and it went really nicely, seeing as the skirt was high waisted, I think it looks great. Then the sunnies are from Urban Outfitters, I love the round frames. Definitely going to wear this outfit again!
