The Lace Top: Day

To start off, I’m really sorry for the lack of posts recently! School has been crazy busy but hopefully things will start to calm down now my personal statement is raring to go (famous last words!). In between juggling UCAS with the everyday errands of school however, I have naughtily managed to squeeze in a little Forever 21 shop. This lace blouse is the perfect day-to-night piece, so much so that there is another post headed your way on how I take it from this casual look to something a little dressier for the evening. In the daytime, you can’t go wrong with layering it with as much silver/ turquoise jewellery as you can get your hands on- it just gives it that super chilled, bohemian vibe that makes me lust for summer! I also seem to be living in ripped jeans at the moment so these H&M ones, paired with these staple black-heeled boots have been a winning combination recently. Look out for how this look can be made evening ready next week!

The New Coat

Despite the fact that winter has only just come knocking, this little number has been safely tucked away in my wardrobe since the end of August, just waiting for the first sense of a cold, frosty morning. When I saw it on the Missguided website all them weeks ago, I really couldn't resist. I've been on the hunt for a camel coat, ever since spying one on the ever so stylish Kim Kardashian last year, hoping to clock one that was a little more within my price range. Where there's a will, there's a way, and sure enough I came across this one for no more that £35- bargain! The tailored fit of this jacket means it can be dressed up for an evening out or paired with my standard H&M jeans, a plain white tee and heeled boots for a more casual look. Whatever the occasion, this coat is a definite staple within any Autumn/Winter wardrobe. 

What's In My Bag

 

Since picking up this Accessorize number a few months ago, I’ve had the perfect excuse to fill it up with all those ‘handbag essentials’ that really are not all that necessary at all (who needs THREE lip products?!). Despite my bag now being completely weighed down with various hand creams, these are some of the bits and bobs that manage to make their way with me, everywhere I go…

Boyfriend Jeans #3

A blue cotton shirt is a definite staple in my wardrobe, whatever the weather. This H&M one however is an autumn essential- super chic and perfect for layering when it starts to get a bit chilly. Paired with some ZARA heels, the outfit manages to hold on to its femininity ,whilst the shirt and jeans also puts a spin on that much desired, ‘androgynous’ trend. Easy, peasy.
