So if you do not follow my social media, you may not know that I'm currently in LA! Yesterday we had a little impromptu shoot at the roof top pool in the beautiful evening sun.

Top c/o / The Fifth

Belt & Bag / Topshop
Shoes c/o / Daniel Footwear
Welcome to one of my favourite outfits. If you follow me on youtube you'll of heard of this top by The Fifth label many many times, and even seen it in my recent summer lookbook video. Who knew I would be so obsessed with a basic item, but when something gets it so right, oh it's good!
High neckline, low arm holes, flattering shoulder width makes this a winner for me. Seriously I've been after something like this for 3 or so years, no jokes.
I really do adore The Fifth's items, they've also recently started being stocked at Asos!

The whole look feels very chic and minimal, I pinned my hair back at the sides to go with the look a bit more. As the clothing is so simple I wanted to create pops of colour with the accessories. Welcome back those amazing Quay Australia sunglasses! My go to sunnies this summer! And I'm still muchly in love with my satchel I got from Topshop many years back.
Also I would like to apologise for my lack of posting on here recently, I've been posting lots of youtube videos which, if you do youtube yourself, you'll know takes up a lot of time. I even uploaded 3 videos in 3 days at one point, when I usually do one a week. I find it a struggle at times to be consistent with posting on both my blog and youtube when there's also other things like all the social platforms to go with them and also working. I've also recently tried fitting in more of a social life as managing all these things can take up all your time and you can feel quite lonely.
Moving forward, lets find a balance for everything. How do you guys do this?
Hype + Giveaway!
Jumper c/o / Hype
Shorts c/o Missguided
Rucksack c/o Zatchels
Coltranes c/o Loveclothing
Necklace c/o Traditional Heart
Bracelet c/o The Bohemian Collective
Rings c/o Wanderlust, Druzy Dreams & Bloody Mary Metal
Here's a causal yet edged up festival outfit. I love the contrast of the pretty shorts against the structure of the cropped jumper and bulkiness of coltranes. Colours running through our are pinky coral tones against black, something I've not really gone for before, but really like here!
I've seen these shorts being featured everywhere and had to get myself a pair! If you do decide to get these ones from Missguided I would suggest sizing up if possible as they are quite tight around the waist!
This hype cropped jumper I cut a little more to get it the right length for myself. They no longer have this black one, but I saw a burgundy version when I last had a little look.
I adore this little apple choker necklace from Traditional heart! I think it adds a cute 90's vibe to the outfit. If you fancied anything from Traditional Heart, use code "SUMMERLEANNE" for 25% off throughout July!
Look at those amazing new ring additions to my collection! The cross bones and heart ring are both from Bloody Mary Metal, I'm so in love with their jewellery! These are sterling silver and handmade! All their jewellery is cast in either sterling silver, rose gold or gold, not plated so it won't make your fingers go green!
If you fancied anything from Bloody Mary Metal, use code "BMMXLEANNE" for 20% off throughout July!

I first spotted Bloody Mary Metal first on instagram when Chris John Millington modelled some of their rings. If you don't know who Chris is, go check him out, you'll most probably recognised that beard of his!
I'm so in love with their logo, it features an anchor, a personal fave! I'm of course also in love with their jewellery, all beautifully handmade in a choice of sterling silver, gold or rose gold. All cast in those precious metals, not plated, so they won't be making your skin go green!
The first image shows my first lot of BMM, I then fell in love with some of their new pieces which are coming out this month. If you follow them on instagram you'd of also seen some of their new designs, all amazing I must say! They very kindly let me have the "Ace or swords" necklace and mega bling ring before they are made available online <3
They've recently open their store in Cornwall, so if you are local to there you must go check out all their beautiful jewellery in person! If you are local to Leeds, you're in luck, they are having a pop up shop happening 12-13th July 2014 at the Sacred Electric Tattoo. There shall be 6 tattoo artists all designing Bloody Mary Metal flash sheets to tattoo all weekend!
Fancy some Bloody Mary Metal jewellery for yourself? Use my code "BMMXLEANNE" for 20% off through out July! Also stay tuned for next week as we'll be having a giveaway together!! <3
