Look: Tropical Breeze

You can buy this dress on eBay for £17.99 here - apparently it's a Zara copy? I'm not sure of this is true but I've seen loads of bloggers wearing it and I really like this shape of dress. I think this will be perfect for summer and my holidays!

My boots are from River Island and have become my absolute staple shoes over the autumn/winter months!

Look: Same jeans on!

For some reason I struggle to find jeans that fit. I often suffer with baggy-around-the-knees skinny jeans as I'm sure many of us do. But embarrassingly, the biggest nuisance for me is a baggy crotch area! I've put this down to having quite slim hips, resulting in a lot of excess material around the crotch. The biggest culprits tend to be high waist jeans - but I love them! I was just about to start rummaging through the teen section for my ultimate pair of jeans but then came across a pair (albeit not high waisted) that actually fit quite nicely on me, in the form of a £15 pair that I found on sale at River Island. *queue staring at my crotch*

As stated above, my jeans are from River Island. My lace cami can be found at Internacionale for £9.99 and my shoes were bought also in the sale last Christmas from Topshop. They were delegated to the bottom of my wardrobe for quite some time, but I have a new found love for them now. Maybe it serves me right for not wearing socks - but they did give me blisters! :( Hey, maybe that's why they were delegated in the first place.

Look: Dots & Daisies!!

Another monochrome look from me. I should probably inject a little colour in to my wardrobe!! 

I got this skirt in the River Island sale for £15. The length was a bit out of my usual comfort zone but I really loved it so I took the risk. The annoying thing about this skirt is that it has two slits down the front creating a loose flap that goes between your legs as you're try to walk!!

My cami can be found at New Look - it's become such a staple piece for me! My jelly shoes were bought at Topshop along with my ring. I've never really wore jewellery but I'd definitely like to start so I bought a couple of rings the other day and hopefully my collection will continue to grow. I've always found rings really cool!

Look: New Years Resolution

As I promised I am going to Lookbook more so here is my first post of the new year!!

I bought my jumper from New Look in the sale around October time. I've paired it with my new skort that I got for Christmas, also from New Look - currently available for £17.99. My shoes are black leather oxford-style shoes that I got from Topshop around Christmas '12, and my watch (which I only recently found after being lost beneath laundry for a couple of weeks) was a 17th birthday present off my lovely grandparents made by Citizen Eco-Drive. 

I hope you like my look. Very monochrome!!! Feel free to leave any comments below.

New Years Resolution

Hi there! It's been a very long time since I last blogged - just over two months in fact (it's shameful, I know) - but that's why I have officially made it my New Year's resolution to try to blog and Lookbook on a much more regular basis. 

I tried to start this off with a bit of a blog re-vamp, but as I'm still a massive beginner when it comes to HTML and CSS coding, my 're-vamp' has so far consisted of re-naming my blog and shifting my side bar to the right (crazy - I know!) If you weren't aware, I was formerly 'Hopeless Whistler' - a blog name which I could certainly not warm to and actually made me cringe a little bit when ever I said it out loud to anyone. So the new year brings a new name for you all: 'Frock Me' (and 'frockmefashion' for my domain as just 'frockme' was already taken *insert sad face here*). 

I don't want to say exactly how often I intend on blogging, because with January mocks peeping over the horizon and a wagon load of coursework stacking up on me, I could find it hard to keep to a perfect timetable. But I'd like to say at LEAST once a week. I can manage that, surely? 

I popped a little link to my Lookbook at the beginning of this post for you all, and you can also access it through my side bar. Again this is something I aim to do a lot more regularly, although my limited wardrobe and terrible camera quality will throw a few restrictions on that. It's terribly time consuming trying to capture a picture where your clothes AND your face look okay, taking in to account you're using an iPhone camera and self timer app to do this. 

Thanks to everyone who read my blog last year, and I hope to gain a few more fans this time round. Hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Years. Maybe you could drop a comment telling me what your New Year's resolution is? :)

Thanks for reading, Aderyn

Thank you ASOS!!

After a rather hectic incident involving running around with no pants on and a few days of waiting, I have finally received my Access All ASOS package!

It almost arrived on Friday, but having just woke up in a t-shirt and undies I had to frantically run around trying to find some pants to slip in to. I finally managed to find some hidden under the mounds of clothes on my floordrobe, put them on (backwards) and ran downstairs only to find one of those pesky red notes telling me I had to wait until Monday to pick it up. But I got it in the end!!

(please excuse the grainy picture that has been blown up from my phone)

I thought that the hand written note was really sweet and it showed that the ASOS team actually took notice of what was on everyone's applications. I'm currently testing out the nail polish - I love the colour but it's taking ageeees to dry and although I'm not really a jewellery person, I think this 'LOVE' necklace will be the perfect start to my collection! 

I can't wait for all the invitations to start rolling in. So far we'd had three, two of which I've shown an interest in, but I don't know if I'll get picked. Fingers crossed!!

I'm an ASOS Insider!!!

A short while ago (I've been rather busy recently so I've completely lost track of time) I applied online at ASOS to join their Access All ASOS team. Obviously I never thought I'd actually become one and I totally forgot about it, but then yesterday I received an email to tell me that I'd been successful!

For those of you that don't know, Access All ASOS is the opportunity for a selection of their most loyal fans to gain access to the latest news and information from ASOS. This includes their new collections, chances to visit ASOS HQ and supposedly the odd freebie or discounts. Sounds appealing, right?

I am absolutely thrilled to be a part of this and I really hope I get the opportunity to take part in some of the stuff they have on offer. It's only just kicked off, but I hope to let you know if I get to participate in any of these amazing events. Applications for 2013 have now closed, but they'll be taking on more applications next year so keep your eyes peeled!
