Cowgirl Ambitions.

The sun has made an ickle appearance today, so thought I'd take the opportunity to get an outfit post up. And as I foretold, I am obsessed with wearing these shorts; I can not wait to wear them without tights in the Summer. Actually, I can't wait to get rid of tights in general too. 
Anywho, this ensemble is rather cowgirl-esque, but with S/S 12 giving a nod to all things Americana, thought it looked all quite cute.  Haven't invested in any 'Stars and Stripes' print yet, just not sure enough. Have any of you lovelies?

I adore these tasselled boots, my mum found them for me, she is such a good bargain hunter! 

I've also tried out something new on my nails this week.

It was meant to be a super cool marble effect, but it looks more like painters hands haha. I do really like the colours together, just need to perfect this skill without huge amounts of mess. They look cool from faraway...so not all bad.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend girls! Fingers crossed for some proper sunshine. 
Stay dandy.

    1. I saw this trick in Look magazine, where you just blob dots of the two different colours on your nails and swirl them together with a cocktail stick. Most definitely need to improve my skill though haha. Sam xx

  9. Love the boots, I am a sucker for anything fringed! So festival-esk. Colours in your nails work really well together aswell! I actually did a similar design a while back using pastel colours too. Instead I used a ripped sponge to dab on the colours. Heres the link if you want to check them out :)

    They were really easy to do too!
