It's no secret that I am obsessed with leopard print. If done wrong, leopard print can leave you looking a little like Kat Slater (google her if you don't know what I'm on about...), but when done right, it can add that little bit of something special to an outfit. My rule with leopard print is usually to have it on one main piece, and keep the rest simple. Usually this means pairing with minimal colours such as black and white. I picked up this beautiful high waisted, leopard print skirt in the Topshop sale recently, and have worn it so much since. Paired with a band tee and a pair of grungy sandles, you have the leopard look that works well for everyday!

Last year I had the idea that I wanted to go to Santorini. Santorini is one of the many Greek Islands, and is meant to be one of the top places you should go before you die. After seeing countless images all over my Instagram and Pintrest feeds, I was sold on the idea of and knew I had to go. So skip forward and I am typing this blog post in my little greek courtyard, surrounded by white walls and bright pink Bougainvillea flowers. Quite honestly, I feel as though I am on the film set for Mamma Mia, and that any moment now someone is going to burst out singing 'Dancing Queen' around me. Anyway, being that Santorini is one of the most beautiful and picturesque places I have ever had the pleasure of being, I thought I would take it as a prime opportunity to take as many blog pictures as possible - so see the next few posts from me as a sort of 'Santorini Style Diary'. For those interested, I will also do a picture diary and talk about some of the best places to go on the island if you're ever thinking of coming here.

As a brit, I like nothing more than getting away for an actual bit of heat in the summer (considering when I left the country it was grey and raining!) and the weather in Santorini is nearly perfect! It's hot (about 26-30 degrees celsius) but there is a cooling island breeze which makes going out in the day bearable! Come the evenings  though, and it is the perfect temperature to stroll around in. I bought these striped culottes with me as I thought they would be the perfect thing to throw on for an evening out. Paired with this little ZARA crop top and I was more than comfortable to spend the evening strolling around the beautiful town of Oia, enjoying the sunsets and and eating my way through as much Greek food as possible!

I spotted this number at the back of my local Primark and made a complete B-line for it. It was nearly identical to the ones I'd seen elsewhere and was only £12 - win. I have had so much wear from this, way more than I thought I would. It worked so well in the colder months with little jumpers or blouses styled underneath. Even in the warmer weather it's a nice piece for layering tops underneath and wearing without tights. As I find with a few of the pieces from the Primark denim range - it is a bit short. By no means am I a tall person (5ft 3), so if I'm saying its short - you know it really is! Because of this it makes it harder to wear without tights, in case of any indecent exposure - but I try my best to work around it because it's so darn cute! I'm now dungaree lover and a full size dungaree set is on my current lust list...
