Finally - My Summer Lookbook Video!

I always feel such a sense of accomplishment when I've finished creating a lookbook video, its great to see how the outfits come alive! It's very different vibe from just looking at pictures on a screen don't you think? This is my summer lookbook showing all the outfits I wore during my recent stay in Ibiza. For outfit details, see the corresponding blog posts for each outfit below! I hope you enjoy watching the video as much as I did! If you did, please like the video, comment etc and help my blog/channel grow! :-D 

Outfit details

Outfit 1 - The Perfect White Shirt

Outfit 2 - My Tie Dye Bikini - Beyonce for H&M Swimwear

Outfit 3 - Evening Glamour: The Grecian Maxi Dress

Outfit 4 - For the love of the Printed Dress

Outfit 5 - Lace and Tassels: My Cute Bikini Coverup

Lace and Tassels: My Cute Bikini Coverup!

When I know I am spending the whole day at the beach, the one thing I never forget to pack, other than my bikini of course, is my coverup. Plus, when the said day is going to be at Blue Marlin, one of the most glamourous yet laid back venues in Ibiza, you know both items have to be super pretty! For that reason, I specially designated this simple white bikini and tasselled cover up as my outfit of the day!

 

My bikini is another one from Beyonce's swimwear collection for H&M, I couldn't resist getting this plain white one in addition to the tie dye one I already had, and its so affordable I didn't feel bad about it either hehe. I really like the bandeau shape of the bikini top and it comes in a crochet pattern that you sadly can't see very well because its so dark! Get a better look here.

I was torn between getting the yellow one and the white version but looking back at it, I think I made the right decision. Or should I run back to H&M and see if they have the yellow ones in stock too? common, indulge me please! :-P

The cover up itself was from Primark, that store never ceases to amaze me with the treasures it hides, you just need to have patience!

  The girls and I all had different types of bikini cover ups, Ebie chose white crochet shorts over her monokini, while Frankie had this super cute backless dress! I wish I'd taken more pictures, it was adorable!

You might be pleased to know that my Ibiza holiday outfit round up is almost over - I'm certainly not *SOB*, but I'm currently editing a video lookbook that should be up within the next couple of days! :-) My last videos were on the outfits I wore during my Barcelona and Paris holidays, so please make sure you subscribe to my youtube channel, Allisbelle, to be updated when the Ibiza one goes up. It's looking pretty amazing if I do say so myself! :-)

   As always, thanks for reading guys!

My Tie Dye Bikini: Beyonce for H&M Swimwear

I was blown away by how stunning Beyonce looked in her campaign as Mrs Carter in H&M, so naturally I just had to HAVE one of her bikini sets for my trip to Ibiza! I was immediately drawn to the green tie dye print as bright colours tend to look nice contrasted against my skin. Plus each piece was only £3.99! So if you are like me, and tend to buy a bikini for each day of your holiday, check out H&M, I definitely think they have the best swimwear for their price range, compared to sayyy, Primark? I like to mix and match my swimwear so I got the two sets from the picture above, but now I wish I got the sarong and Maxi dress too! The tie dye print is the best thing about this bikini, the colour is so vibrant, the print looks near identical to the colours of the Mediterranean sea behind me, don't you think? It was the perfect bikini for a perfect day on Formentera island. For my cover up, I flung the white shirt

 from this post on, and paired it with some cut off shorts from Topshop.

Can't wait to go back!
