STYLE | It was all yellow.

Jeans- Topshop

Shirt- Forever 21

Jacket- Topshop

Shoes- Henry Holland @ Debenhams

Bag- John Rocha @ Debenhams

Scarf- John Rocha @ Debenhams

I love, love, love anything oversized, so when I saw this babely yellow scarf in the sample sale at work I couldn't resist. My scarf collection has grown enormously this season, which I blame solely on the fact that I’ve only bought one coat this winter. Justified? Anyway, I just love scarves at the minute and I feel like this one has totally jazzed up a simple black ensemble.

Worn this weekend while puppy shopping, yes that’s right we are getting a Dachshund! He is the most perfect thing I’ve ever seen...We get him in 2 weeks and I cannot wait! If you haven’t already seen him on Instagram you can take a look here. Anyway I’m digressing this is the outfit I wore, my faithful Leigh jeans from Topshop and an oversized black shirt from forever 21. Teamed with my new Henry Holland at Debenhams shoes and I was set for the day.

What do you think, are you partial to a scarf or two?

Fancy Footwork

WAHEY! It's weekend and what better way to spend my morning than browsing the internet for my favourite item of clothing. Shoes, shoes and more shoes. Today my interest has been focused on Zara. Their new collection is uh-mazing. I literally want nearly every single piece, which is obviously great news for my bank balance.


Beginning with boots...now I know it is technically going to get warmer so buying MORE boots shouldn't be on my mind, however how can one resist? These double buckle cut out beauties in high shine pu are right up my street and frankly for £59.00 who wouldn't want them? The wrapped buckle shoeboot on the other hand is a great transitional piece which can be worn with both tights & bare legs. Reason to buy?...I think so too.


Moving onto some amazing court sandals in powder blue and pastel pink..admittedly I wouldn't wear them everyday, but they're the perfect shoe to add a little jazz to a simple black ensemble. The white block heel court is one of my favourite shoes I've seen for ages...the heel is bang on trend and it's in optic white. enough said?


Then we have some rather lovely sandals in cobalt blue. These are an update on the ones Zara had last season, which I missed out on (sad face) and with the addition of a metal plate they are given a little edge. At a price of £29.99 and in black too, i'll definitely be adding these to my wardrobe this season.


The loafers are beautiful, so easy to wear, but with a comfortable and sensible heel height which is always great for a commute or for work. The other flats are in the form of a cleated sole sandal in metallic silver. This sandal is going to be huge this summer and the double sole adds height which is something I LOVE, being on the small side.


All in all I think you'll agree Zara has done a rather fabulous job on the shoe front this season. Is there anywhere else I should be looking or do you agree that Zara is looking mighty fine? I'd love to know!

Roll Neck- Primark

Trousers- Topshop

Boots- Primark

Bag- Mulberry

I've been aiming to wear today's look for so long, but today's weather has finally enabled me too. Sent to me by the guys at R-A-J-E this dress is perfect for the festive season, as it looks like I'm wrapped up in a huge pretty bow. Teamed with a roll neck and pu trousers to keep me warm and I couldn't be happier.

Playsuit- Glassons

Top-Topshop

Boots- Primark

Bomber- Monki

So it's 3 weeks till Christmas and the sun was shining yesterday in London. With that in mind I decided to wear my leather playsuit bare legged for my night out in Brixton. It was rather chilly if I'm honest and probably not the best idea considering it is December and the midst of winter...however it was perfect for a night dancing in a club. 

How's everyones weekend been?

Brand Watch | Stolen Girlfriends Club

So I don't know if ya'll know, but this week I am heading to New Zealand via Hong Kong to visit my lovely twin Natalie. She is currently spending her time in Auckland working as a Staff Nurse. As you can imagine I am feeling ECSTATIC at this thought....not only will I see my beloved but I'll also be able to visit the flagship store of one of my favourite brands, which I continue to admire from afar. I first discovered Stolen Girlfriends Club a few years back and ever since I've been pining over items I cannot afford nor access.
What do you think of their latest lookbook? I'm in LOVE.

Coat- Miss Selfridge (last season)

Sweater- Primark (current)

Boyfriend Jeans- Gap

Shoes- Urban Outfitters (last season)

I'm apologising now for the poorly chosen background, it isn't what I imagined when showing you my finest. This is one of my favourite coats EVER! Thanks to my friend Ella for this. This is a rather casual affair and worn for a day in the office. I decided to pair the coat with some of my all time favourite jeans which I got when I worked at Gap a few years ago.  They have definitely served me well and are a great investment, trust me, I dare you to go grab a pair right now!

Shoes- Faith at Debenhams

Rings- H&M 

HAPPY SATURDAY! So today is going to involve shopping and preparing for my rather amazing holiday which is coming up in less than 1 week, wow! I'm not prepared as usual and so to help me on my way I'm wearing this cute floral print shirt which I received as present a few years ago from Urban Outfitters. The colour of the print is amazing and I'm in love with it as much now as when I first wore it. Teamed with a pinafore baroque dress and flat pointed pumps and I'm raring to go (kind of).

p.s- I've had a little trim.....how short is my hair!?

STYLE | Baroque

Top- c/o Glamorous

Skirt- River Island

Jacket- Topshop (similar here)

I've wanted to wear this baroque number for a while now and dinner on a Saturday seemed the perfect event to show it off. Beautiful shades of blue toughened up with a palette of black in addition to leather textures made this a fabby look for a night out. Wearing my hair in a top knot and my cyber MAC lipstick finished the look perfectly.

What do you think?

What A Girl Wants | October

Shirt- Topshop Unique £100

Wrap Skirt- Topshop £42

Buckle Shoes- Office £60

Backpack- M&S £29.50

Jumper- &Other Stories £45

Trousers- Whistles £275

Rings- H&M £3.99

Scarf- COS £49

Its that time of the month again when I show you the things my heart is painstakingly lusting for. This month I have gone for a lot of sensible pieces, rather unattainable dream boats. The Whistles trousers are the priciest things on my wish list this month and aren't too bad at £275 if you ask me.  Key things this month for me are the buckle shoe boots from Office, I saw these a few weeks ago and just cannot wait to get my hands on them! Knitwear is also working its way back into my wardrobe now Autumn has returned and this pretty pink number from &Other Stories hits the spot for both shape and colour.

Each piece brings something new to my wardrobe, however my favourite piece is the wrap skirt from Topshop. The colour is so beautiful and the finish on the satin fabric makes it great for both day and night. A versatile piece is something I'm looking at a lot more often recently and this fits the bill perfectly. With that in mind, the rest of the pieces are also quite simple, but perfect for the season. Thoughts on my Wish List? What are you looking for this month?

STYLE | Midi

Jumper- Primark (in store now)

Skirt- River Island (old, similar here)

Shoes- Primark (sale, similar here)

Bag c/o Debenhams

The midi skirt has been a staple piece in my wardrobe for a while now and especially this one. Bought a few seasons ago and in a great shade of mulberry it seems this little beauty keeps coming out of the woodwork. I love the colour and the fit is just perfect...I'd have it an array of colours if I could! A fluffy jumper is a priority in my winter wardrobe this season and being cropped makes it just that little bit cuter teamed with a Midi. My heeled loafers are my bargain of the month, or year should I say. Priced at £6 in a Primark sale, these are so cheap and are practically the same as the ones in other high street stores which a retailing so much higher. It would have been silly not to indulge, hence they are now my go to shoes. A bargain if I do say so myself. Thoughts my dears?

Faux Leather Vest- c/o Glamorous

Skirt- Miss Selfridge

Socks- Primark

Boots- c/o Debenhams (not online yet)

Leather and Chunky Boots, it must be autumn! This faux leather beauty is from the wonderful guys at Glamorous. I love the colour, although I wish I had a little bit more of a tan to show some contrast, my skin is rather similar to the soft beige shade. Teamed with my amazing boots from Debenhams which by the way are both comfortable and bloody good looking and I was ready for a night at a friends house party.

p.s sorry for the lack of presence over the last week. I have had n internet at the house! This week i'm back with some great ootd posts and my favourites picks for autumn.
