The Monday Piece - Khaki and Black

This week's Monday Piece is on khaki and black! A quick outfit update again from this weekend. I wore this outfit to go out for some drinks with my sister last night - we headed into town for a catch up and gossip which was lots of fun! My mum managed to salvage these jeans after i stained them with olive oil and hummus, so i've been making the most of wearing them, i love the khaki colour as it goes so well with black and white - i wore my classic Alexander McQueen scarf too to keep my neck warm as it's gone oh so slightly chilly - it's all good though as i get to dig out my chunky roll neck jumpers and snug stuff!

Topshop Studded Mom Jeans

I am obsessed with these new jeans from Topshop! I saw them a little while ago and saved them in my basket for aaaages before deciding to click purchase during a little online shopping spree i had this week - i don't really 'do' any other than skinny jeans so the Mom style is new to me and with short legs and curvy hips i wasn't too sure if i could pull off the style - but the studs and different style meant i had to give them a go and i'm so glad i did! I also picked up this metallic cami from Zara, it looks like it's silky but it's actually metallic faux leather - again i wasn't sure at first but i love the colour and extra dimension the textured fabric brings. I wore this outfit yesterday for a bit of shopping at Gloucester Quays, then we had a yummy Thai lunch which was SO good! Quickly snapped the outfit in the crazy wind yesterday! What have you been buying lately?

The Monday Piece - Autumn 2016 Luxe List

This week's Monday Piece is on this Autumn 2016 Luxe List! This list is my go to for inspiration this autumn, it's all mega high end and super luxe but the quality and design is so original and of course our local high street stores will follow suit with their own versions, getting on trend, fab autumn pieces at a fraction of these prices. I have always wanted a Burberry cape, i think they are so chic and timeless and it's literally a throw on piece that looks great with any outfit - i was in Bicester village recently and they had them on sale, somehow i managed to resist but they will always be mega coveted! I'm also loving all of the pretty embroidered pieces that are coming through this season - the suede biker jacket with studs and embroidery is just my style and is one of those pieces that would add some sass as well as warmth! Of course i'm always eyeing up luxury knitwear, there's no better feeling than wrapping my neck and body in a cashmere roll neck jumper on a chilly morning, and again they look so classic and are ideal for layering. Tailored trousers are slowly creeping into my life, i'll always love my skinny jeans but the tailored style and tapered leg designs look smart with a laid back edge - add some pointed boots for an extra sharp look. I always finish my look with a fun accessory - whether it's a camel coloured Acne scarf or a statement Gucci bag, i want that 'on trend' piece to add a little extra dimension to my outfit. Autumn is the best season for experimenting with in between season styles and mixing up your look - what are you lusting after for Autumn?
