Ibiza Rocks 2014

Apologies for the lack of blog posts lately but it is the school holidays and I spend most of my time entertaining my kids and juggling work and childcare. This week has also seen the return of my club night Bang which is now only every quarter of the year due to family commitments and general lack of time to be able to run a club night and DJ more regularly. It was a great night though with loads of regulars and some new faces on Bristol's underground club scene. I promise to post a load of Bang photographs very soon so you can see exactly what is going on at Your New Favourite club. Check out images here for a sneak peek. We are also clearing out our loft, now remember Phil and I are shocking hoarders, and there is ten years worth of hoarding going on up there, that needs to be removed! As we speak some of the loft converter guys have just turned up to measure up before they start the work, its all very exciting but extremely time consuming and hectic! You know me nothing for an easy life!

Let's take a look back to when I was having a bit of time off and managed to take the whole family to Ibiza. I am an awkward summer holiday dresser as city street style is clearly my look rather than beach babe and I find myself needing to tone down my style to look less odd on the beach! Honestly, this is the truth, it's crazy isn't it? So, I started toning down my look by colouring my hair bright blue and took it from there.....

 I miss you Ibiza, you rock!

Tucked In Or Hung Out

This is the last personal style post before I reveal my new hair colour on the No Debutante blog. Since the weather was hot mid July, the skirt was the chosen item for me, midi, mini, tartan or clashing prints anything goes but what to wear with my skirts? Separates can be worn in so many  different variations and can give the illusion that you have many more clothes than you actually do! Dressed up or down, layered, with or without accessories and whether you should tuck your top in or let it hang out, the possibilities are endless. 

I have taken it upon myself to question why do (mostly older) women wear a long fitted top pulled over the top of their skirts? I think it was possibily a look that was started to avoid getting muffin top, whatever the reason, it truly has to be one of the most unflattering looks ever!!?? You have a look, you will see this look every day, it drives me mad! Can't these women just tuck the top in a bit and show off that they have a waist instead of creating more bumps and accentuating the ones they may already have? Or wear a more oversized top to make it look like you are not trying to hide your waist, hips and bum with your fitted top? Or just wear a bloody dress and be done with it! Proportionally this look is an odd one, it creates an unflattering illusion that you have a very long (bumpy)torso and equally very short legs. It's a no win look. Please, if you are doing this then stop it at once and show off your curves! Rant Over!

Here are three ways I wear my separates with tops tucked in or out but not a sign of the fitted long top tragedy! On a lighter note, who remembers the white Primark sandals that broke on the second wear? Well, I was about to throw them out in disgust when I had an idea.... I cut off the broken straps, two seconds before I was leaving the house for work and 'voila' a fixed pair of sandals, customised the no Debutante way! Check out the results below! What do you think? Let me know how many people you see today who are guilty of the long top and skirt crime, I bet its over ten people!

Denim Daze

I wear a lot of denim in every guise, here are few recent personal style pics of some of my denim favourites.......Of course my dungarees are in this post! Dungarees are super cool in the summer worn with a vest top and sandals or layered up with jackets and tees. I have had this denim waistcoat for years and I love wearing it layered over dresses. I do own other dresses, this one just seems to be a favourite at the moment! In fact, I wore a lovely new dress today which will make it's debut on Instagram and my facebook page over the next few days! Please could I take this moment to direct you over to my No Debutante Facebook page and to follow me on Instagram for daily fashion updates! Please follow me if you like what you see!
