Patterned Skirt

My camera is still broken so hence the minimal photos, there were three salvageable ones! Hey ho guess thats what happens when you put rent over lenses.... adult life. 

I'm literally loving being all snug and cosy in big knits at the moment, also they are literally the most flattering things ever like who even needs summer?! I'm also a fan of a lovely patterned skirt to add a bit of life to an autumnal outfit and I love thick tights they are so much more snug then jeans.

When I spotted this skirt in Zara I literally fell in love, the pattern on it is so beautiful and autumnal even with the colours and I really think I can wear this in the spring and summer as well. Also when a skirt is only £17.99 how can you even walk away from it???  It's such a lovely cord like material as well and it looks much more expensive then it cost - what I always look for in my clothing!

So if you are feeling a little bit of daytime glam I would definitely recommend a lovely printed skirt with a big chunky knit and some black boots!

Skinny Scarf Loving

Just wanted to start off with a little note that my camera lens is broken so prepare for the next few sets of photos to be blurry and non focused but I thought it's time to get back on the outfit posts horse because it is my favourite thing to do. 

I've recently moved to Coventry and there is the most beautiful memorial park ever which is where these photos were taken. Outfit details can be found below;

Bicester Village

So finally back to blogging... it's been a long time and literally everything in my life has changed. I got a promotion and moved to a new city and moved out on my own! Anyways enough of that, I went to Bicester village on Friday and it was so wonderful.

I never really expected it to be so clean and lovely, everything looked really neat and the shops were all amazing. I always thought that maybe it wouldn't be so reduced looking at the prices online but you could actually get some good deals. I fell slightly in love with the makeup and perfume shop.

I overly treated myself in my normal fashion and ended up buying a Kate Spade handbag and also some Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation.

I couldn't believe how cheap things were! My double wear foundation which has a usual retail value of £30 ended up being only £21! I was really happy about this as I have wanted to try the double wear for so long but the reductions definitely swayed me. The Cosmetics Company store was really good and it had a large amount of discounted stock, I believe most of it was discontinued or old stock however mac had a lot of the Toledo collection which to be honest isn't really my fave anyways.

However, obviously the star of the show was my new handbag! I couldn't believe it, I literally fell in love when my eyes set sight on it. I really shouldn't have brought it but you know, gotta live by the drake Yolo motto. It was over £300 retail value and I got it for £148.80 as it had an extra 20% off in a private sale! Was really quite expensive and I have never brought a designer bag before but my boyfriend convinced me it was a good idea haha.

Anyways, here is my beautiful new Kate Spade handbag!

Mustard vibes

Hey, so it's been a while since I posted but I've just been so busy :( Back to having no life now so can finally work on my blog some more! I have recently purchased THE MOST PERFECT SHOES IN THE UNIVERSE! I think I have wanted them for about 3 months from Zara and thought I had been dreaming about them long enough to treat myself! I have featured them in this post so it is more of an evening look as these are not shoes to be worn in the day. I am just going to say these are my first pair of Zara heels and OMG they are so comfy! Literally in love with how I can run around in them, also I am the least gracious drunk in the planet so they help on nights out too! Teamed the shoes up with a mustard coloured relaxed blouse from H&M which I love! It's such a nice shape and honestly so so comfortable, the fabric is wonderful for the price. I obviously paired this with my statement topshop clutch bag and a little hat for a more quirky look! 

Suede Loving!

My favourite trend for SS15 has to be the 70's look, I'm all about a bit of paisley print some boho vibes and carefree fashion. With the key pieces for this trend involving flares, off the shoulder tops, fringing, crochet and of course suede what is not to love?!

Above image featuring looks from Saint Laurent, House of Holland and Tommy Hillfigger SS15 shows. 

I have kicked off the beginning of March aka the summer in my eyes with a beautiful suede skirt 

from H&M. I have been lusting over several ones on asos and Miss Selfridge for a while now but it betroths me to pay £65 for a skirt... come on really?! So when I spotted this in the Bullring branch of H&M I literally had a fit. I have had a look for it on there website but haven't seen it yet so I am hoping it has only just come into store for you all! At £24.99 it is such a bargain and looks so much more expensive then it costs, it has a beautiful A Line fit which is very in for next season and also lovely button up detailing on the front. 

I have styled three looks to go with this skirt. I have chosen to go with a daytime look, a look for somewhere smart casual or something I would probably wear to the pub or a party and then finally a going out full on glam look. All outfit details will be listed below. 

The first of all three looks I have gone for is my daytime shopping sort of look. I have teamed the skirt with a basic black long sleeved ribbed polo neck top from Topshop (£18) with some black tights and my bargain boots from Tesco! I found them in the sale for only £12! I have also matched it up with my new beautiful bag from Topshop with fringed detailing it actually does have a strap which you can remove so can be worn in daytime or for evening looks.

My second look is my smart casual / party look. I have chosen to team the skirt up with a denim shirt I picked up from Primark recently and then added my la moda OTK boots (linked below) I love this look and the colour combination of the denim and the suede really stand out. I would team this up with a little black clutch and my favourite stacker rings!

My final look is my all out glam vibes, I decided to team the skirt with a flowing white shirt brought from H&M and also my bargain matalan lace up heels, yes that is right those shoes are from Matalan! Can you believe they were only £20 they are also so comfy as they support your ankle and the heel height is not ridiculous. I have also teamed it up with my Topshop bag as per.
