    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!

  • Alana Haim Outfit Inspiration | QueenBeady

    Image

    Today I bring you the third & final instalment of my outfit inspiration posts on those super talented sisters, Haim. Last but not least is Alana – who is often referred to as Baby Haim. She’s the youngest of the band and exudes playfulness both on stage & off.

    I would say Alana’s style is very much the wacky one. As the youngest this is probably why it reflects that the most. She is not afraid to get colourful and show off a bit of leg in her trademark short shorts!

    So let me take you on another style journey after trawling the Internet I think I put together the perfect outfit.

    1. This varsity style jacket is an absolute bargain from River Island and personifies Alana. She does occasionally wear the Haims trademark leather jacket like her sisters but your tend to see her in more lighter jackets like this one. In the sale at on £20 you’d be mad not to buy it!

    2. PAISLEY PRINT! Not only am I a huuuuge fan of this print & style it is so on point with Alana’s fashion sense. This will be seen all over the festival circuit this year. You can pick up this in time for the summer season from Topshop at a slightly pricier £36.

    3. Alana wouldn’t be Alana if she wasn’t wearing some really short shorts! I picked these ones because I loved the floral pattern of the pockets that were peaking out at the bottom. From New Look they only cost £14.99. What a bargain?

    4. EEEEK! Look at these beauties? What dreams are made of? These Dr Martens are from Cloggs UK & are the pricier end of the scale at £124.99 but you know you will probably get the quality from a well known brand. I’m awaiting a pair of these beauties so I almost feel like I could be Baby Haims twin!

    5. This super cute swallow necklace is fabulous. It’s very delicate and it’s not too over the top. I think this would just finish the look off perfectly! This can be found at Boohoo at a very lovely price of £5.

    So there you have it Alana Haims style from the high street & the last in this series posts. I will no doubt be using this style inspiration for another set of posts soon. I’d love to hear if you want to challenge me to create someone’s style as well – so please leave a comment below!
