FAVOURITE FASHION BLOGGER - SARAH ASHCROFT.

My favourite fashion blogger is Sarah Ashcroft of That Pommie Girl (www.thatpommiegirl.com). I have been reading her blog for about a year now and she was the person who really inspired me to start writing my own fashion & beauty blog. (Maybe one day my blog will look like here! I wish!!)

Sarah is an English fashion blogger and studied a Level 3 Diploma in Fashion Retail at Fashion Retail Academy in London, where she is now hoping to pursue a career in fashion PR. Her favourite high street shops are H&M, Topshop and River Island and her favourite online retailers are ASOS, Missguided, Sabo Skirt and Tiger Mist. 

Her style is really inspirational and I love the fact that she is very on-trend, classy and girly all at the same time. She wears lots of lovely pastel colours, neutrals and striking bold colours, prints and textures, making her a great source of fashion inspiration for many styles. 

That Pommie Girl is a gorgeous blog; it is so prettty with its design, easy to read and has lots of high quality pictures and outfit detailing. Sarah's Instagram feed is also lush! I will post the details of where to find Sarah's accounts at the end of this post. 

I decided that I'd put together a lookbook of some of my favourite styles from Sarah (there are lots!!). I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! 





Outfit Details
Top: Missguided
Skirt: Missguided 
Mac: Boohoo
Shoes: Topshop
Sunglasses: Missguided
Bag: Bershka

This is a gorgeous beauty of a co-ord; pink and fluffy = heaven! It is the perfect transitional pieces as it gives you that little bit of extra warmth for the autumn time and is perfect for layering. Missguided also do this co-ord in black and white. This outfit was also a match made in heaven for this cute little milk carton bag. 


Outfit Details
Jacket: Paper Dolls
Shorts: Paper Dolls
Top: Crusade Clothing
Shoes: Public Desire 

These shorts look so smart but fashionable at the same time. They are the perfect thing to wear to family events and weddings without looking over or under dressed. This beauty is from Paper Dolls which is a brand available on Little Mistress. I love the colours in the floral print and it is a sort of crepe material which feels and looks really beautiful.

Jumpsuit: Primark
Belt: River Island
Bag: Michael Kors

Outfit Details
Top: Crusade Clothing
Jeans: Crusade Clothing
Coat: Lily Lulu
Shoes: Boohoo 

These ripped jeans are perfect for giving the outfit a more fashionable and edgy look. I love how these ones have been styled with this gorgeous white bralet from Crusade Clothing. The jacket is perfect to take you from summer to autumn as it isn't too heavy and bang on trend right now. The monochrome colour scheme also means it goes with everything. The faux suede of these heels from Boohoo make them look much more expensive than they are and as they are nude, they also go with everything too!! 


Outfit Details
Co-ord: Verity Anne Clothing
Mac: Boohoo
Shoes: Nike

This is a slightly different look from Sarah's girly co-ords and pink colours as she has added some Nike Airmax to create a sports luxe look. The Nike Airmax Lunars are the perfect shoes for casual days and making your lazy outfits look abit more fashionable & I love the pop of pink neon on these ones. Combined with a white co-ord & a lightweight mac, this outfit is simple and stylish!

Jacket: Primark

Crop Top: Misspap
Shoes: Daniel Footwear 


This gorgeous pink faux suede jacket is from Missguided and I think it is a definate that this will be getting ordered & added to my wardrobe! The colour is perfect, it looks so soft & will be beautiful to wear. I also think this jacket will be lovely for wearing when the weather starts to get a little cooler. 

This was a lovely little bit of Tumblr inspiration that Sarah posted on her Instagram. I love the chalky dark grey jeans (again ripped ones!) paired with the black sandals & top. This would be a lovely outfit for a chilled out day at a coffeeshop or for shopping with friends.

Jeans: Pretty Little Thing
Bag: Paul's Boutique
Shoes: H&M 

Sunny weather and floral kimonos, is there a better combination? This beautiful kimono is a lovely material perfect for casual wear and as a bikini cover-up and is definately a summer essential! This lace bralet was £22, which I think is really reasonable for such a gorgeous piece. The jeans are such a fab shade of denim for the summer and the outfit is finished off with a pastel bag from Paul's Boutique.

Outfit Details
Jumper: The Fifth Label
Dress: Ribbon from Bank Fashion
Shoes: Public Desire

This gorgeous printed dress from Ribbon at Bank Fashion is such beautiful summer colours and I love the simple style of it. For a more casual look, it is worn the jumper from The Fifth Label, a new Australian fashion brand which is like a sister to Finders Keepers. I love how it is white and cream, which you would never have thought would work together! 

Outfit Details
Top: Zara
Trousers: Closet Clothing
Heels: Primark

One of my new favourite potential wardrobe additions has to be these gorgeous lilac trousers from an online website called Closet Clothing. They design and make everything in London and these are the perfect summer trousers. They can be styled in many ways, but in this outfit, Sarah has gone for a more dressy look and has paired them with her bright lime/yellow heels from Primark! 
Outfit Details
Playsuit: Fashion Union
Kimono: Fashion Union
Shoes: Fashion Union 
Headband: Fashion Union
Bag: Grafea

In my personal opinion, I think the best thing about festivals is the fashion. It's the only chance you really get to play around with styles, accessories & face paint and get away with it! All of this outfit (apart from the bag) is from Fashion Union, which is an online store with lots of on-trend and affordable items. 


Outfit Details
Co-ord: Kendelle
Coat: Boohoo
Flower Headband: LVNDR
Shoes: Public Desire

Channelling her inner Vaness Hudgens, this outfit has got me dreaming of summer and Coachella festival. This beautiful co-ord is from a fab new fashion label called Kendelle, who are featured in Topshop's Oxford Circus store and they have very unusual and different pieces.

Jacket: Boohoo
Jumpsuit: In The Style

Outfit Details
Bralet: Missguided
Jacket: Motel Rocks
Trousers: Monki
Shoes: ASOS

I am totally obsessed with bralets at the moment and I am loving how they seem to be everywhere just now. The best ones, however, that I have seen are on Missguided. They come in the most beautiful colours, like this mint one, and they are such a bargain! I also love how Sarah has paired this bralet and trousers with a gorgeous white faux leather jacket and trousers.

Outfit Details
Jumper: Missguided 
Jeans: Topshop
Shoes: Forever 21 
Coat: eBay

Is there anything more perfect than these jeans?! They are lovely for summer and the colours are just so beautiful. One reason why I love these jeans so much is that they go with lots of pastel jumpers like this gorgeous cropped one from Missguided. 


Outfit Details
Jumper: Missguided
Shorts: Pretty Little Thing
Shoes: River Island
Bag: Primark


Outfit Details
Top: Boom Boom Boutique
Trousers: Sabo Skirt
Shoes: H&M
Coat: ASOS

This beautiful backless top is from Boom Boom Boutique. They design and make their own clothes and they are all super gorgeous and a bit different to anything you can get anywhere else. If you are after something a little special, then they are definately worth checking out.

Top: New Look
Jeans: Missguided 
Jacket: eBay
Shoes: La Moda
Bag: La Moda
Sunglasses: Zero UV

Sarah says that she is not normally a yellow person, but had seen so many beautiful yellow pieces around that she decided to add some to her wardrobe. This beautiful t-shirt is from New Look and is such a bargain. It's a really lovely fabric and feels a lot more expensive than  it is. The colour looks so fab against these beautiful acid wash jeans from Missguided which are a bargain alternative to Topshop Joni jeans. They are super comfortable and are a really great style for summer as they look so fab with crop tops.

White accessories have been a massive trend this summer and were totally all over the catwalks. These cute jelly shoes from La Moda match perfectly with the lovely little shoulder bag.
