little swallows



playsuit: ax paris* | necklace: bad passion | bracelets: wired jewellery, h&m, river island

The annoying thing about having is fringe is having to cut it on a weekly basis, usually before an important night out (which was last night, as you read this I am most likely very hungover and trying to make it through a 12hr shift!) when you've already had a few glasses of wine and are feeling a little more confident than usual when it comes to hacking chunks of your hair off - so please excuse how wonky it looks! Oops.

This playsuit ticks every box in my "must have it" list - animal print, cute and a piece that can be dressed up or down. I'd only seen AX Paris as a concession in my local New Look store before they contacted me, and I had no idea that there was a whole website of clothes! Everything is really well priced too, and the quality is great - definitely a new favourite shop of mine!

  4. I always love a good rake though the concession stands at New Look but also didn't realise they had a full range. Love the swallow print.

  7. Cor, tell me about it. I don't know WHAT I did the other week but there's a very noticeable chunk missing to the side.. thankfully it grows so quickly that it's starting to be okay :/

  9. AWhh I totally feel your fringe pain! I get so fed up of my fringe growth (my fringe and hair is basically identical to yours!) so often cut it myself whilst drunk. The results are hilarious!! xxx

  12. Charlene you look a beaut! This playsuit is so flattering and the print is adorable!
    And the hungover 12 hour shift, I remember it well! Almost as well as I recall serving someone , asking them to wait a moment, throwing up "around the back, then finish serving them... classy.

  16. Your fringe looks amazing! I'm in the midst of trying to grow mine out which is as equally annoying cause it's always in my eyes. Can't wait to be able to tuck it behind my ears!

    Love that nail polish colour :)

  23. That playsuit is gorgeous, I'm drawn to anything bird/swallow print at the moment! I'd love to be able to have a fringe, I bet it gets annoying though having to trim it every so often!

  25. Love this outfit that playsuit is cute, I was thinking of having a fringe again but than like you say it takes so much work. I badly have enough time to wash my hair, without trimming and straightening a fringe. Yours does really suit you, your hair always looks lush x
