OOTD/ May day

It only feels like last week when we were planning the Easter bank holiday and now May Day is nearly upon us. We're not complaining, everyone loves a long weekend. 

We've been really lucky this month, not an April shower in sight, so it's time to embrace the weather this bank holiday and we've got the perfect May Day outfit to suit every weekend plan. 





We are still in LOVE with the Monochrome trend for Summer, but we have played with the patterns and textures to create a summery version. The wide leg culottes are from Topshop. Topshop never let us down with the beautiful patterns for every season, this one no exception, with an overlapping busy floral print. We teamed it with a cotton scalloped textured tank. It's the perfect length, as you can tuck into the culottes or wear it loose over the top if you're having a lot to eat and drink. The scalloping softens the look.

It's time to dig out your sandals and cut out shoes. We went for a patent sandal version of a school shoe. The buckles and patent finish bring a bit of formality to the outfit, but still able to show a bit of flesh. This black leather rucky is great for a day out to pack all your essentials in. It's very versatile as it has a small strap, so it can be held as a handbag too.

When picking jewellery for this outfit, we were stuck for choice, as The Adorning Ava Monochrome Trend has such strong pieces this season. In the end, we decided on The Kyla Black Jewel Rope Necklace, as it's sets off the outfit perfectly. The design of the necklace is almost made to wear with the culottes. We chose The Leila Monochrome Hoop Earrings. The hoops bring of extra detail to the outfit. Don't forget, the sun is out so your outfit isn't complete without a pair of shades. The Black Round Cat Eye Sunglasses are one of our fave pairs at AAHQ.  They make any outfit look stylish.

Don't forget, it is England, so make sure you've packed you pocket umbrella. Those April showers have a way of creeping into May. For a Summery fresh look, keep your make up simple with a quick flick of eye liner and a clear lipgloss.
