Outfit | A Bloggers Date

dress: forever 21 | boots: H&M | necklace & earrings: Lola Rose | ring: forever 21

On Saturday I went on a date. Kind of. I went to meet a new friend for lunch, this friend being the lovely Paige from paigejoanna.co.uk (go visit now!) and I must admit I was pretty nervous. We'd met before at a blogger meet up a couple of weeks ago and got along really well, and we'd spoken a few times since so we made lunch plans. I was a lil worried that it would be awkward at times but it turned out I needn't have. We got on really well, talked a lot, and even went for a little (big) shop afterwards. 

Now, when you are meeting a fashion blogger for lunch your usual "omg I have nothing to wear" train of thought goes into overdrive. Luckily I'd just received this gorgeous bird print dress from Forever 21 and knew I wanted to wear this. So even with the rain I got my stubby little legs out and headed on over to Gunwharf. I really do love this dress, it's a baby doll fit so oversized, but flattering and I love the print.

After lunch Paige and I went a shopping... We both ended up with the same MAC lipstick from the discontinued Archies Girls collection (review coming soon) and I also ended up with a dress (see pic here). Now a word of warning - a fashion blogger, meeting up with a beauty blogger, around shops is just a bad idea. If we weren't both short on cash at the moment it would have been a bank account disaster... O well, we will save that for when we are rich and famous.

All in all, I had a lovely day and I cannot wait for our next "date". It's actually really nice to have someone down the road that does blogging as well - as much as my friends understand it and love that I do it, it's nice to not explain why I'm taking a picture of that seeminly uninteresting object...

So here is to the next date! And the next outfit that goes with it....

What do you think of my new dress? Bird prints for the autumn!
