Outfit Inspiration with HM Loves Music Roadshow | QueenBeady

Hello to all my lovely followers!

I know my style/OOTD posts have been quite ”sporadic” as of late, however I thought that I would put together a mood board of some my favourites pieces from the #HMLovesMusicRoadshow collection. You can read about the exciting event that our photobooth and myself were involve with last week HERE.

I literally love all things summery, especially that boho vibe. It get’s me so excited for festival season and with the YO1 Festival firmly under my belt I am in full swing festival mode!

Whilst alot of the range were quite bright and garish, I picked a few of the more subtle pieces that exuded a bit more ”class” that would be perfect for waving your arms in the air at a festival or running down the beach watching the sunset. (Drifts off in to a dreamy haze of Summery Goodness)

The super cool Palazzo pants are so effortlessly chic, I can almost imagine sipping a G&T on the marina in the Cote D’Azur in these. A must have for summer http://www.hm.com/gb/product/27529?article=27529-B#campaign=2VA_DLM_part_2&campaignType=Transactional_Planned

The Kimono is EVERYWHERE this year. You can’t run & you certainly can’t hide. The 1970’s Woodstock movement is to blame for this and I can’t deny my love for it any longer. Perfect for a breezy night when you don’t want anything too heavy http://www.hm.com/gb/product/26646?article=26646-B#campaign=2VA_DLM_part_2&campaignType=Transactional_Planned

What’s summer or a festival without a few flowers in your hair? Exactly, I see you all nodding in agreement with me! I love the pastel pinks in this and quite frankly you should all go buy it and dance in the streets! http://www.hm.com/gb/product/27911?article=27911-A#campaign=2VA_DLM_part_2&campaignType=Transactional_Planned

DUNGAREES!!!! I can finally relive my circa 1990 outfits? What an earth was my momma thinking, but you know what who cares if you look a little STUPID? Because I can feel like a little kid again in these super cute dungarees! http://www.hm.com/gb/product/28725?article=28725-A#campaign=2VA_DLM_part_2&campaignType=Transactional_Planned

And finally…. STRIPES, STRIPES & MORE STRIPES. Give them to me, all of them to me. I love stripes. I have dispersed the common myth that horizontal stripes make you look fat (because I am a little chubby!) and I wear stripes all the time and don’t actually feel like a beached whale. So this cute little number is all you need, however I am not sure if I am brave enough to get my little tum tum out just yet in this off the shoulder top! http://www.hm.com/gb/product/29764?article=29764-C#campaign=2VA_DLM_part_2&campaignType=Transactional_Planned

I hope you likeed the round up guys!

Enjoy, oh and can I just remind you all….. I GET MARRIED IN TWO WEEKS TIME! So please send me your honeymoon outfit inspirations to me, pretty please!!

HM Loves Music Roadshow | QueenBeady

Some of you may, or may not know that I work for a really cool company that hires out photo booths and some crazy fun experiential marketing.

This week I got to be part of an event at H&M Leeds Briggate which was in aid of #HMLovesMusicRoadshow. This is all about the music-come-fashion collab, that we see so very often. The edgy range is aimed at the festival goers and the music lovers out there that are inspired by neon colours, short shorts and flowers in your hair! And what’s more Alexander Wang is the muse behind the madness, so you can expect greatness from this amazing collaboration between high end & high street!

Some of you will know that the roadshow hit Coachella in April this year with this announcement, and what an awesome place to let the world know? NB: Remember to buy a coachella ticket for next year!!

So, back to the event in hand; our photo booth looked totally AWESOME! With our props all ready to go we were all ready for action for a full day entertaining the shoppers of Leeds on this gorgeous, sunny Friday.

I invited lots of lovely bloggers to the event to come say “hi” but most of you were working! (WAAAAA!) So not only were we there we had some fun guys from Radio Aire playing the tunes during their DJ sets, discount cards, Manicures & Mini makeovers.

It was so much fun!

So of course, I had to have a go…..

What would the job be if you couldn’t have this much fun?

OOTD Shopping for my Hen Party Dress | QueenBeady

Outfit One

Outfit Two

Is anyone else crushing over the new Florence & Fred Range at Tesco Clothing? I know I certainly am, so much so I tried two dresses on for my hen do. Now, when I look at these photos I really love the peach coloured dress but didn’t think it would give me much room to bust a move (which I’m pretty sure I will be doing!)

I tried on a size 12 of the Powder Blue dress (which is in the photo) but quickly decided my waist needed cinching in so I tried on the size 10 which quickly gave me more shape. I have previously declared my LOVE for this colour & it’s so easy to see why.

I love the detailing of the dress & can’t wait to wear it. I think I will pair it with these cute block shoes because the ”clompy but cute” look is everywhere at the moment! I love the V neck back as well because it is quite a conservative style dress at the front.

Now I just need to decide whether I wear it Hen do One or Hen do Two? Help me decide.

Blogger of the Week with Wear Eponymous | QueenBeady

This weeks post is only a short one as all the links do the talking (plus I just tried posting this & wordpress decided to delete it?!)

I was so excited when Wear Eponymous chose me to be their BOTW. So you might be asking who W.E are? Well, they are a fabulous company that create classic key pieces that every girl should own. From the tailored dress to the classic cigarette pants (which I happen to adore!) they have something that is always timeless.

Not only do they gorgeous fashion they also help aspiring bloggers (like myself!) get noticed. But there is also something else which is rather special that is in the pipeline. They are working on a collaboration with the super talented Laura Sherriffs. All the bloggers were falling over their feet when they gave us a sneaky peak of what was to come. I certainly can’t wait!

So go put the kettle on, make yourself a good cup of tea, sit back and read my Q&A here and have a right royal belly laugh at my (horrendous) childhood faux pas photo. Enjoy.

OOTD Pastel & Gingham | QueenBeady

It’s a gorgeous spring day & what better way to spend it than bringing my lovely readers a little OOTD? Please excuse the slight podge (wedding diet is NOT going well, obviously!)

My love love affair with eBay and charity shops is through the roof & when I put some of my finds together I couldn’t believe how well they fitted the SS14 trends this year?

(Oh & yes that is my gorgeous doggy running around like a loony in the background!)

TOP Zara
TROUSERS Julie Mitchell
NECKLACE Claire’s Accessories
SHOES New Look
BAG Zara

My favourite find was these pair of gingham trousers! I found then on the £1 rail in a local charity shop. Let me repeat that, ONE WHOLE ENGLISH STIRLING POUND! Yes, you heard me right that time. It really pays dividend to trawl charity shops because you will become a cropper & find something amazing!

My top was an eBay find and I got that for £2.99 from Zara. Hardly worn & bang on trend with the pastel themes we are seeing everywhere at the moment.

& of course. My lovely Zara city shopper bag. My beautiful bag that is just almost too gorgeous for words, she literally comes everywhere with me. She was a splurge (courtesy of my darling husband to be! A short quick paddy & she was mine. Yes, I am princess!)

So do you like this style? If love to hear from you if you do!
