LFW Outfit One

 

Hello everyone, 

 

So I thought it was about time I started showing you my LFW looks. Here is what I wore on my first day in London, it was a last minute decision to wear this outfit, which made me a bit anxious but I liked the result and especially so as I finally got to wear these Asos checked trousers, which I have had for ages now. 

 

I styled them with my Eskander checked shirt for print on print styling, something that I always enjoy doing but decided to keep that touch very subtle by wearing my navy knit from Cos over the top, as it complimented the colours of my shirt and trousers perfectly. I chose to wear my very old white pointy shoes, as ya know we are all loving a bit of the white shoe at the moment! Even though I loveeeee heels, I don't actually have very good balance when it comes to walking in them (apart from heeled boots) I feel like I must look look a little girl trying her mums heels on for the first time! Plus I feel I can enjoy myself a lot more when I am wearing a shoe thats comfier and easier to trot around in, so for the rest of the time spent in London (apart from one evening event) I wore flats but that's not say they can't look just as chic. 

 

As I clearly do not have the luxury of having a private car to take me from place to place and with knowing that I would be outside a lot trying to capture some street style, I had to be wise and keep myself nice and warm, so I chose to wear my Cheap Monday grey coat with my Oska cape layered over the top. I really love the strong splash of colour it bought to the outfit, really lifting the darker tones. I finished of with what appeared to be a LFW must have, The Beanie! Also my Ray Bans, Alexander Mqueen ring and Prada bag. :) 

 

Well thats all for now, looks from day 2 and 3 from my LFW trip will soon follow! Thank you lovelies and take care,

Blue, Grey & Brown Leather

 

HI everyone, 

 

So I am back from LFW and I want to thank you all for continuing to leave me such lovely comments on my posts whilst I was away. I had a wonderful time in London and got to meet some very inspiring people and one person in particular that made a personal dream come true. I also want to thank my AMAZING boyfriend because he made my time there so enjoyable with all his support in helping me to get around with such ease.  I will be working on some LFW posts very soon but for now here is just a little something I wore a couple of weeks ago.

 

I had decided it was about time that I wore this amazing top once again, as I think it was last spring when I last styled this top into a look, I know crazy right?! So I decided to keep everything quite simple a take a classic approach when picking the other pieces, as I find it to be an interesting contrast against the sportier tone of my top. I love this brown leather skirt of mine, I bought it from Abercrombie & Fitch years ago, it can just be a bit of nightmare to style with it being soo short! Like I want to wear it in the summer but I tend to be a bit conscious of the top part of my legs but I am thinking a white shirt underneath that comes longer then the length of the skirt would do the trick. Anyway here I am talking about a look that hasn't even happened, so back to this outfit. I wore a pair of black tights, as not only dose it make me feel more at ease with the short length of the skirt but come on, I would look CRAZY without them this time of year! I wore my low heeled Miu Miu's, my old Cheap Monday coat and finished with my typical picks, Chanel bag and Ray bans.

 

Well Hope you like this look my lovelies. Thank you and take care,

Pink & Padded

 

Hello lovelies,

 

I hope you are all enjoying your week so far. Here is an outfit I wore a couple of sundays ago, it was very very cold out and me and the boyfriend were heading into town to check out a new coffee shop, normally we are to only be found in starbucks on a sunday afternoon but it's nice to try something new and as it turned out, we really enjoyed it there. It was cosy, had a big drink selection and a wonderful choice of yummy treats, perfect! 

 

Anyway I realised I still hadn't worn this padded sweater by Acne, you know, with being so poorly over and after Christmas. So with the weather being so cold I thought it was the perfect time to finally wear it and well lets face it, nothing beats that fresh out the box feeling. When styling it I had androgyny in mind and of course the chillier weather and decided to wear it with some rolled up jeans, a pair of navy ankle socks and some mens inspired brogues. Of course my grey oversized coat was a must, as it gave that extra androgynous feel. I then finished of by adding in some feminine pieces, such as my ladylike Prada tote and this very old pink scarf of mine. 

 

I kept my hair tied back, though I definitely came to quickly regret that one, as my ears almost froze over and then came to realise that I had stupidly forgot my earmuffs, silly girl, I know! Before I leave, I must apologies for my FACE in these pictures for some reason I look so grumpy! I don't know why, as I was quite chirpy that day, oh well, who knows what it was! 

 

Well I hope you like. Thank you, take care and enjoy the rest of your day,

Meow,

 

My love for navy and black has never been a secret here on my blog, so I guess this outfit I wore a few weeks ago isn't going to come as huge surprise.  

 

I am also loving oversized and slouchy sweaters, so I decided to team this Topshop boutique favourite of mine from last year with another favourite, this Oasis leather skirt. Perfect i'd say for combining two style loves of mine. There is something about this skirt that makes me love it for transeasonal wear, it's fine for the winter to but I just prefer a leather skirt to be worn without tights. You are also getting to see for the first time (I think) these amazing Kg Kurt geiger boots. I bought them over a month ago now and I love them so much and just couldn't wait to wear them. Their timeless colour and style makes them difficult not to wear them with everything, which you will come to see and understand in my upcoming outfit posts. I finished of the look with my old but trusty grey coat by Cheap Monday, that I had for Christmas about 3 or 4 years ago and of course added in my chain bracelet, boyfriends watch and Ray bans. 

 

Well I hope you all dig this look!! Thankssss and take care,

p.s

 

I hope the photo quality isn't to bad but I am having a lot of problems when I am saving them for the web in photoshop. They are loosing a lot of the colour saturation which is very annoying and it seems to be mainly on darker outfits i've shot. So if any one knows anything about how to solve this problem of mine, i'm all ears.

Lil MissTweed

 

Hi everyone, 

 

I've really been into classic heritage pieces recently and I know why, as I always start to feel like this at the beginning of autumn, there is just something about it that makes me want to get all the tweed pieces I own out of my wardrobe and wear them with other autumn classics. Guess it makes me feel all warm and cosy inside.

 

Though at the same time, of course the modern more current side of me fights to get it's way and to stop them arguing I have to find a middle ground and I guess this is how it ends up looking. Now I know you're probably thinking there aren't actually any pieces here that you would call "modern" but it's more about how the pieces are styled rather then the pieces themselves. So for instance I thought you can't go wrong with a classic blue shirt teamed with a tweed skirt but to give that combination a bit of a current edge I went with a cropped style shirt and belted my skirt in place to create a mini. Now I also hear you thinking, really a crop top and a mini skirt?! But the saving grace is that I wore an extra long grey cardigan and a pair of low ladylike heels, then with my Chanel worn in the ever so cool and current way of across the body. Throw on a wool wide brim hat and TaDa balance is restored. 

 

What do you think of my Autumn ensemble? Well I hope the answer is you like this look and thank you of any comments. Take care,
