186. Everything at once




Blazer:  Charity Shop
Blouse:  New Look (old)
Shorts:  Greece
Boots:  New Look
 
Hello lovelies!
 
This is my outfit for today, feeling very festive with the red. I bought this blazer in Farnham on Wednesday when I was visiting my boyfriend. I saw it on the rail and instantly fell in love with the colour and pattern but it looked massive! I couldn't resist trying it on anyway and then I fell into an even deeper love! Ha! Sooo I bought it, and with a bit taken in at the sides and arms and the shoulders raised here it is! It is still over-sized but I really like that with vintage clothes so I'm happy with the way it looks :) What do you think?
 
Also, I will be posting about my latest giveaway tomorrow evening, as promiced, to celebrate Silent Sweetheart reaching over 300 followers so keep an eye out for that!

182. Blue Suede Shoes (boots)

 



Hat:  New Look
Blazer:  Charity Shop
Necklace:  H&M
Top:  New Look
Disco Pants:  River Island
Boots:  New Look
 
Ah, second post of today! I did have another but thought I'd better leave that one for tomorrow, don't want to overload you all! Anyway, this is today's outfit. I couldn't, and still sort of can't, decide whether or not the blue blazer and blue boots was a bit much especially with the hat but I thought I'd go with the flow and just wear it anyway! I'm off out with a couple of friends in mo for a much needed catch up so if I get any funny looks I'll know what they're thinking, ha!
 
I wasn't actually going to blog or Lookbook this look because my best images came out really grainy, but I thought the two at the top weren't so bad, plus it has been a century since I uploaded an outfit!! So anyway, what do you think? I bought the boots and the hat yesterday when I went shopping (which will be mentioned in tomorrow's post) so I was eager to wear them both today. I know it may not be to some people's taste, but hey ho! I'm going with the flow! ....And rhyming apparently?!
 
Enjoy your weekend!

175. Nothing will break us.




Blazer:  Charity Shop
Top:  Kings of Leon gig
Skirt:  Primark (about 3 years ago!)
Boots:  New Look
 
Hello beauts! Have you all had a good Monday? I know Monday's aren't usually the best days of the week, but I hope you've all had a lovely day :)
 
This is what I have chucked together today for my one lecture at uni. I wanted to wear something comfortable yet different and still stylish, and this is what I came up with! I absolutely love this blazer as it is velvet and such a gorgeous colour! It is over-sized but that's another reason I love it. It's just such a cosy blazer to wear for gloomy, rainy days like today, and also adds some colour to my otherwise dull days.
 
I am also wearing my lovely new boots which I wore for the first time at work on Saturday and nearly lasted my whole shift before they started hurting. I think I wore them for about 8 and a half hours before I changed to my flats which I thought was pretty good! I wanted to wear them to work because I am constantly on my feet and walking around all day so it's a really good way to test how long you can wear the pair of shoes for. I was pleasantly surprised and now know that I can wear them to uni without them hurting :)
 
Anyway, I hope you all have a good evening! I have a ton of uni work to do...wish me luck!!

164. Fire In Your Eyes




Blazer:  Charity Shop
Top:  Topshop/Charity Shop
Disco Pants:  River Island
Shoes:  New Look
 
Hello lovelies! How is your bank holiday weekend going? This is what I'm wearing today as the weather is rather gloomy outside. I tell you what, I am getting pretty fed up with this weather! I wish it would just make it's mind up already! Rant over. Ha.
 
Anyway, today I am wearing my almighty comfy disco pants from River Island paired with my orange Topshop crop top for a pop of colour. I am also wearing my velvet blazer which I found in a charity shop in Farnham. I thought I had lost it for ages but luckily I found it this morning and I am so glad as I love it! Lastly I am wearing these cute lace-up wedge shoes from New Look to finish the look. What do you think? I don't usually wear outfits with my tummy out but I thought I would today :) Hope you like it!

157. Life is sweet







Necklace:  H&M
Everything Else:  New Look

Hey lovelies! I didn't actually put any make up on or decent clothes today until about 4 o'clock when I got a text from my boyfriend saying he was on a break so I could see him Ha! As soon as he text I was straight upstairs getting ready and wacked this outfit together, and I actually really like it! After looking at Alexa Chung and Jameela Jamil's outfits it got me thinking that I should experiment more with the clothes I already have in my wardrobe - and this is what I came up with! Do you like it?

Normally when trying out new outfits I get scared and a bit self-consience about whether people think I look stupid, but wearing this I actually felt really confident and grown up - almost like a business woman on a casual day! Haha!

Hope you've all had a good day! I can't believe it's only Wednesday, it feels like a Friday for some reason? Hmm...

135. Or so they say..






Jacket:  River Island
Dress:  From a friend
Shoes:  Platforms

Hello, hello! How are you all today? Wearing this really lovely daisy dress today which Paige found in a charity shop and adjusted and then kindly let me have :) I've paired it with this blazer which I bought from River Island last year and I honestly wasn't sure if it would go with the daisy print on the dress, but personally I think it works. What do you think? I really love the clashing prints but somehow the colours all go together. I have then kept it simple with thick black tights and my brown platform shoes which I cannot stop wearing lately!! They are just so comfortable!

Hope you lovelies like it! :)

122. Feet don't fail me now






Blazer:  Primark
Playsuit:  New Look
Boots:  New Look

Hello! This is what I wore yesterday but I ended up going to the cinema in the evening to see Avengers (it is amazing by the way!) so I couldn't post my outfit, but here it is! It seems I'm loving the dusky pink colours lately. I wanted a comfortable outfit yesterday as I was doing uni work all day so I just chucked this playsuit on and then for the evening I added my blazer, ankle boots and floral necklace. Hope you like it!

Sorry I haven't been blogging much lately, uni work is so intense right now so my blog posts are gradually getting smaller and smaller due to little time to breathe! I cannot wait for the summer when I can really concentrate on my blog :)

Make it Mine Monday

Hello, hello! A 'Make it Mine' is on the agenda today as I have seen so many lovely clothes, shoes, jewellery etc, so here is just a little snippet of things that I am loving right now!

Asos:


This is just the cutest dress on Asos right now and it really reminds me of Red Valentino Fall 2012 collection, as seen here. I am very, very tempted to buy it and pair it with a pair of black or white lace knee high socks, or maybe wear a white shirt/blouse underneath the dress for a femenine, girly, vintage look.



A bit different, but I really like the print and style on this dress. The print is just so striking and would look great in the summer and I love the detailing on the back to make it different and more interesting.


Urban Outfitters:


Oh my goodness! You would not believe how long I have been looking for the perfect large peace sign necklace on a long chain, and now I have finally found it!! I saw this in the Urban Outfitters store the other day when I popped into town and just fell in love! I nearly bought it but then remembered the discount I can get online for my first order ;)


I have had my eye on these beautifully bright shoes for so long now but have been putting off buying them as there is limited clothing they could go with. They do them in black aswell but I just love the orange too much, and I love the pantha on the heel too.


H&M:



I supose if I bought this gorgeous blazer it would match the shoes, right? Haha! I really love the colour orange, incase you hadn't noticed, but like I said before there isn't alot you can wear this colour orange with. And I have to admit, I did buy a pastel pink blazer very similar to this style from Primark the other day for £21.00, so maybe I'll leave this for now.. But got this colour is just so nice!

Have you seen anything you would love to buy recently?
