What I Wore Today - Pointed Boots

I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I can't believe it's the end of April and i'm still wearing my cosy, warm coat - it's properly cold though and the weather forecast doesn't look to appealing, but at least i can prolong the wear of my favourite winter pieces! On Saturday me and G dogsat our friend's ginger labrador, he's called Jasper and is actually crazy and always excited - so we took him on an adventure to a big piece of common land in Malvern so he could run free and be at one with the sheep and wildlife, he seemed to enjoy it and covered himself in mud and dirt, naughty dog. Then on Sunday we took a shopping trip to Solihull where we picked up a few new season pieces, and of course finished off with a big, spicy Nando's! I hope you like my outfit :).

What I Wore Today - Vero Moda two tone top

I hope you're having a good week so far! We've had some amazing sunshine the last few days which has been such a treat, so a great excuse to snap some outfit photos. This two tone, black and white shirt dress from Vero Moda is lightweight and loose, my favourite kind of style, i think it's so versatile as it could be worn alone as a dress, over jeans, and dressed up with heels! I went out last night so my flat brogues are taking care of my blistered toes, ouch, but it was a fun night even though i've been feeling poorly and groggy recently. I hope you like my outfit :).

The Monday Piece - Orange Check Dress

This week's Monday Piece is on this check print dress. I usually stick to black and neutral colours, so a fairly colourful printed dress like this is a bit different to my usual style. When Spring is on the horizon i tend to make a little more effort with colours, so i thought this dress was a good transition piece - it has a dip hem and is made from a light fabric, it's still cold so i've worn some skinny jeans underneath and layered my hooded, shaggy gilet. When it warms up i'll get my legs out and wear it with some chunky black sandals!

What I Wore Today - Sammydress black gilet

Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful time over the festive season. The weather has been truly awful the last few days with lots of wind and rain, so I've been wrapping up in cosy things and hiding away, I've also done a little sales shopping in Cheltenham and Birmngham! This fab black faux fur gilet from Sammydress is a great piece for layering, it's really chunky too and has a big hood! I've also worn my leopard print Keds which I loveeeee - I've got a few pairs and wear them so much, they're always comfy and a printed pair like this is great to add a little something to a plain look!
I hope you like my outfit :).

Voodoo Vixen Cape

A cape coat is just what I need to hide my tum after all of the festive foodie treats! I hope you all had a wonderful time this Christmas, now there's New Year to get prepared for! This woolen cape is from Voodoo Vixen, it's so feminine and swirly, there's little arm holes if you want to hange your arms out, and the faux fur trim finishes it off so well! It's super duper soft too and a great piece to throw on for a fresh Winter morning. Voodoo Vixen have such a cute, quirky selection of vintage inspired clothing, it has a real retro feel to it and the quality is great! I'm also wearing my new Topshop boots that I got whilst shopping in Cardiff, they were only £42 which I think is fairly reasonable for Topshop, I love the massive chunky platform and they're comfy too.
I hope you like my outfit!

Twist & Tango printed jacket

I hope you're having a good week so far! Feeling a little smarter today in this printed Twist & Tango jacket, their new Winter collection is right up my street with lots of greys, blacks and dark colours and prints - they're a Swedish brand who make everyday dressing 'easy and effortlessly stylish'. It's available to buy from The Dressing Room, their new website has just launched and is super sleek and sharp, with an awesome collection of designer brands! The print on this jacket is quite jazzy, so i've kept the rest of the outfit simple, i love the fit as it's not too structured and the fabric is quite silky. I'm tempted by this cashmere beanie, it looks so soft! :).

What I Wore Today - BANK Fashion winter coat

I hope you're having a good week. I got this coat from BANK Fashion in Manchester last week, and have barely taken it off since! It's a super warm parka jacket, with a furry leopard print lining, and it has a hood and plenty of pockets - a proper winter jacket good for the wet weather. BANK have so many awesome coats in, lots of styles similar to this - also shaggy jackets, biker jackets and gilets. I like Winter but get cold really easily so i always invest in a big coat, as well as lots of faux fur and chunky layers!
Have you got your got your Winter coat?

What I Wore Today - Striped top and blue heels

I hope you're enjoying the weekend so far. Yesterday we ventured into the Cotswolds to go to Cotswold Wildlife Park, the weather wasn't too bad although a bit chilly, so we wrapped up in our coats and boots to walk around the park. I definitely recommend it as a day out, the park itself is massive and really spread out, it's surrounded in green countryside too. There's loads of animals to see that roam free - rhinos, giant tortoises, camels - so you can get really close to the animals which was fun! There's also a lemur walk through area, open aviaries and other enclosures, plus a little petting zoo, so cute!
A simple outfit with a bit of colour from these blue shoes, I've worn this Cheap Monday top quite a bit, i love their Scandi style and they have some amazing checked trousers on ASOS that are so nice!

What I wore today - Topshop pink fluffy t-shirt

I hope you're having a good week so far. I'm loving all things fluffy and hairy so was excited to find this baby pink t-shirt in Topshop on Oxford street, and it was only £24 which is pretty decent for Topshop as i think has gone sooo expensive recently - it comes in pastel blue too which is tempting. The reviews on the website are rubbish but i really like it, it hasn't shed and really fluffs up when you wear it, especially when it's windy! The pictures are a little mismatched as I wore my nose ring for one but took it out for the others...nevermind. Also picked up these black River Island ankle boots, i'd love a pair of Isabel Marant Dicker boots but that's not going to happen, so these are a good, cheap alternative!
Do you like fluffy things?

What I wore today - Snake print shirt

I hope you're having a good week so far. I accidentally posted this earlier without any words, oops. Anyway, how very snakealicious this shirt is! I do like a bit of animal print and the neutral colours of this shirt from Boutique Princess are good for wearing with some tight jeans, my go to trousers at the moment. Also wearing these amazing pointy toed flats from Choies, they're very Alexander Wang inspired and have a little silver buckle ankle strap and cut out details - they're real leather so i'm going to keep wearing them to give them more of a distressed look!
I have an exciting giveaway to win an exclusive Becksondergaard scarf, if you like you can enter here.
I hope you like my outfit :).

What I wore today - Lush t-shirts

I hope you had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend. Slogan t-shirts are everywhere at the moment, especially designer inspired styles, like this Chanel esque version i'm wearing from Lush T-shirts - they have lots of funny styles and slogans, and they're only £14.99! I've added my multicolour kimono and cut out boots for an easy, on the go outfit. I do like this kimono, but it's kind of tricky to wear and it's fairly long for a shorty like me so can get stuck underneath my shoes - it's good to swish around in though. I'd love a short velvet kimono for autumn, this one from ASOS is so jazzy!
I hope you like my outfit :)

The Monday Piece - Sheer prints

This week's Monday Piece is on sheer prints. Exposing flesh isn't something i'm all that good at, when i was younger it was different, and acceptable, to trot around town in the tiniest of shorts, but now i'm a little older i tend to cover up a fair bit. Crop tops and micro skirts just don't exist in my wardrobe so sheer fabrics make a grown up alternative. This shirt has a crazy print so slightly distracts away from the sheer chiffon - it's from the new Elf Sack range from Choies, which has some super cute stuff! I think sheer prints are also good if you're a little self conscious about your body but still want to add a bit of sassiness to an outfit without covering everything up. Also, i caved and bought the black Joni jeans, oops!
Are you a fan of sheer prints?
