Typical Winter OOTD

 



Jumper & Jeans- Topshop, Scarf & Coat - New Look, Boots - H&M

 I'm back!!

 

After not posting since September (where has time gone?!) and with it now being 2015, I thought it was about bladdy time to get back into blogging again! 2015 is definitely going to be a big year for me, especially since I've applied to university and have a couple of interviews coming up this month, as well as my 18th birthday eeek!

 Anyway, here's one of my current favourite outfits featuring my scarf that my friend gave me for Christmas, as well as some recent purchases. I've pretty much worn this scarf every day since I received it, I love how it's dogtooth and tartan, definitely one of my favourite presents :-).

With a new season comes a new wishlist, so here are some items I've been lusting after recently, just click on the title for the link to the item :-)

Topshop White Cotton Shirt

Every wardrobe needs a white shirt and although I have a hell of a lot of shirts, for some reason I don't own a white cotton one so I need this one in my life asap. A white shirt is such a versatile piece, I'll be layering mine under printed jumpers with black skinnys and chunky boots this autumn.

Monki Grey Boxy Top

I seem to be obsessed with basics at the moment and I love easy, million ways to wear tops like this one, probably because early college mornings mean I don't want to think too much about putting an outfit together as I always seem to be in a rush so this is the kind of top I can throw on with a pair of skinnys and simple necklace and be good to go. I'm also attracted to anything marl grey just because it really does go with everything.

Topshop Dogtooth Cigarette Trousers

I love dogtooth print, and these trousers are gorgeous. They'll look equally as nice worn casually for the daytime as well as dressed up with a leather jacket and heels for the evening. I'm also a jeans or printed skirt sort of girl so I'd like to add more printed trousers into my wardrobe.

Monki Anjali Lace Bra

As I've said before monki do the prettiest lace bras, they're also great if you've got a small chest  because they're super comfy.

Urban Outfitters Backpack

Oh my, how beautiful is this backpack??? Urban always do gorge vintage-esque bags and I'm seriously in love with this one. Aside from canvas tote bags, backpacks are my favourite just because I think when worn slouchy on one shoulder they instantly add a kind of cool to any outfit.

Topshop 'Fast Lane' Lipstick

I've been looking for the perfect deep pink lipstick and after swatching this one in topshop I think I've found the perfect one. I also love the velvet finish - not quite matte but still nice and moisturising.

Like anything in my wishlist? What will you be wearing this autumn?

OOTN feat Sunset over St Ives

Hat - H&M/ Top - Miss Selfridge/ Shorts - Shop in St Ives/ Cardigan - H&M/ Bag & Shoes - Primark

Heyyyy lovelies,

This is just one of the outfits I wore one night whilst we were in Cornwall. Me and my sister decided to try and take the photos while the sun set and it looked pretty beautiful as it disappeared behind St Ives bay. 

If you've read my blog before you'll know I wear black 90% of the time, and summer outfits are no exception. I really love these shorts I bought from a shop in St Ives last year and I've been practically living in them all summer because they're SO comfy and easy to wear. I also love my chunky sandals and bag I bought fairly recently from Primark, I love all chunky heeled shoes and as a short gal I need as much height as I can get! haha

I also had to include my sisters outfit because it is soooo cute.

Hope you like the look,

Wandering around St. Ives

St Ives has to be my all time favourite English seaside town, it really is a beautiful place - everywhere you look is picture perfect, and although I've already posted photos of it last year (see post), I couldn't resist taking a few more this time around.

 It started out a gorgeous day but even when it began to rain it didn't dampen the spirits of the band playing in the street who everyone stopped to watch and I really wish I knew what they were called because they were so good, aw maaan :-(

Visiting Cute Seals & Monochrome OOTD

On the second day in Cornwall we decided to go to this little seal sanctury in Gweek which rescues seals and looks after them until they can hopefully be released back into the wild. There were also two very cheeky otters there - suitably called Starsky and Hutch and were definitely characters haha

 

For my outfit I went for comfy, casual and my favourite -monochrome. I bought this dress a while ago from H&M for £5 or something and it is ridiculously comfy - and you can't go wrong with a basic stripey dress. I added my bowler hat and trusty vintage sunnies just because I love how they look together and to be honest these sunglasses are the only ones I wear because none others seem to suit my face shape at all - is anyone else like that?? Maybe I just have a weird face :-(

 

 

 

 

Dress, Cardigan, Belt, Hat & Necklace - H&M/ Sandals - Forever 21/ Sunglasses - Vintage

 

Ahhhh cute animal overload!

Wedding No. 2 OOTD

Hello lovelies!

This post is a bit delayed but this is the outfit I wore to my uncle's wedding at the weekend, a simple aqua swing dress with the same shoes and accessories that I wore with my lilac dress at my cousin sophie's wedding (see post). Not wanting to wear the lilac dress again and due to a cat in the wardrobe incident I had to find a last minute dress and came across this gorgeous swing dress from Missguided, which was only £9.99 in the sale- bargainous.

I also thought the colour made a nice change since I have never worn a dress as bright (monochrome forever hahaha) and for a tenner you can't really go wrong as far as wedding outfits go. I also liked the 60s feel of the dress, and swing dresses are pretty flattering as they skim over everything - a life saver if you accidentally have a bit too much of the cake ;-)

Me, my mum and sister all unintentionally co-ordinated with shades of blue, setting a trend maybe?? haha

Ah I do love a good wedding, hope you liked the look! :-)
