Jacket ebay, Dress H&M, Shoes Spartoo
I won this suede jacket on ebay last week. It is going to be great when the weather gets warmer but I could'nt wait till then so I decided to team it with my maxi dress shame I still have to wear tights. The best thing about these pictures is that I took them at 6pm which means the nights are getting lighter whoop whoop.
Skirt River Island (old), Vest H&M, Hat H&M, Boots H&M (old), Necklace Gift
I have been hanging around in H&M all week sadly my local Topshop has moved to a smaller premises while they refurbish which means less stock and by the looks of things even less deliveries of new stock so I had to find a new lunch time hang out.
I have found some amazing things. The black knitted vest is my fav I also brought it in a pretty coral colour and at the bargain price of £7.99 who could blame me. The hat is also from H&M as well as the friendship bracelet. I also brought a pretty crochet dress I find I prefer H&M's SS collection to there AW collection what do you guys think?
Hat TK Maxx, Pants Boo Hoo, Jumper Topshop, Jacket Next, Boots Topshop
I feel like a bag lady but it is a nice effect I thought after all the black outfits I have been wearing I would wear some colour so I went for beige and lots of leopard print. These trousers should come with a health warning when walking up and down stairs I tripped so many times by treading on the back of them. Oh and I dropped the coloured leggings under them when I saw these pics :))
Blazer International, Jeans Primark, Blouse Topshop, Boots Nine West,Bag Chanel
I love this sheer blouse it was one of my A/W must have buys and a good investment the back is just too cute. I rarely wear jeans but these skinny leopard print ones are my fav I got them years ago from Primark I just wish I had got them in red now.
I felt like Julia Roberts in Pretty Women when I went shopping on Tuesday you know the scene where she is like holding the money and could not find anything to buy well I felt her pain, I came away with a pair of trousers and a headband from H&M and a printed tee from Primark which yes I am going to shred.
Cardi my mums :), Vest Farhi diy by moi, Levis Cut offs Ebay, Hat New Look, Boots Pied A Terre
The sun is shining today (edit was shining) and after the greyest most wettest day yesterday it is welcomed with open arms. I call grey days like we had yesterday The Nothing have you guys ever watched The Never Ending Story well that is where the nothing comes from.
You might remember this shredded vest from a little DIY I did a while ago here I have turned it the other way round love how you can do this and get another look from the same piece of clothing.
Trousers Boo Hoo, Tops New Look, Bag Label Lab, Hat New Look, Boots Dune
I have been lusting over a pair of sheer leopard print palazzo pants for ages I found these ones on Boo Hoo and was undecided whether to get them or not as Boo Hoo can be a bit hit and miss anyway for £7.00 I thought it was worth the chance I cut the nasty white lining out as you can see I need to do something about the back of them as it looks like I am wearing a pair of nasty white g strings I can assure you that I am not. I put a pair of black tights under them but I will be ditching them in the summer for black granny knickers.
Waistcoat Label Lab, Shorts Motel, Shirt H&M, Boots Buffalo, Hand Harness ASOS, Dream Catcher ebay
I am not a great lover of sales but when the Department store where I work decided to take an extra 50% off sale prices I could not help but have a look around I ended up buying these leopard print shorts reduced to £6.25 and the fringe waistcoat reduced to £10.00. Check out the website here as there are some real bargains including designer labels.
Cape Zara, Vintage Leather Shorts ebay, Blouse Topshop, Boots Pied A Terre, Cuffs French Connection
This is my all time fav looks well at the moment anyway and one that I have been rinsing for a while. I love the cuffed shorts and this cape has served me well for nearly a year now. I also decided to sport a side plait I rarely do anything with my hair but curl it so I thought I would give this a try I love the messy look of it which is good as it ended up looking well messy.
What is your all time favourite look at the moment???
Trousers ebay, Top Whistles, Cardigan Topshop, Boots Topshop, Pouch H&M, Rings Topshop, H&M & YSL
Trousers should not swing above your ankles one of my mums pet hates but I like it and fashion rules were made to be broken and teamed with a pair of ankle boots it really works. I need to invest in a pair of kick flared jeans too I have got a pair of full on 70's flares that really only look good in the summer with a wedge but I love the silhouette of kick flares and how they make the legs look super long too.
I am wearing my new sale bargain waistcoat reduced to £10.24 after all the discounts check it out here and totally perfect for next season especially as I know what look I want to rock so I am now investing in fringing and feathers.
Pleather Trousers Topshop, Jacket Gerard Darel, Boots Topshop, Hat New Look
My old faithfuls pleather trousers and some leopard print I dont think I will ever tire of these. I added the hat for some interest but it was a job keeping it on as it was sooo windy. I am still trying to get used to my new camera I think I need to do a course and learn more about ISO, apetures and shutter speeds as I feel I am not getting the best out off it at the moment bad lighting is also not helping.
I am a little skint at the moment roll on pay day but I did pick up these from H&M yesterday the ring was only £3.99 and the pouch was also £3.99 and is handy for my till card and looks great worn around the neck.
Dress Sonia by Sonia Rykiel, Hat TK Maxx, Boots Dune, Rings Miss Selfridge, Topshop, H&M & Ydeltuyt
Another blogger favourite is the floppy hat. A couple of weeks ago I was at work and this cute girl came up the escalator wearing this hat and as soon as I saw it I knew I needed it my life so I sent Leon the guy I work with to ask her where she got it from and she said she had just brought it from TK Maxx so I went straight there and found one it was a bargain £9.99. I have found a video of how they are made I cant believe how long the process takes.
Dress H&M, Boots Topshop, Necklace Untold
The lighting is shocking it might as well be 6am the only downside to blogging in fall/winter. I have not worn this dress since Biba Day here. It has also become a bit of an iconic blogger piece seen on Rumi from Fashion Toast, Sandra from 5 inch and Up and Karen from Where Did You Get That to name a few. It also does not need over accessorising as the dress speaks for itself.
