1951 Maison Francaise at The Dressing Room

I hope you are having a good week so far! The ever so trendy ladies over at The Dressing Room sent me this awesome leather purse on a string pouch bag, by 1951 Maison Francaise, to stuff full of things i can't be without if i'm heading out to a Summer event. The soft leather and pouch style means you can fit quite a lot inside - i've included my large Samsung Galaxy Note 2, sunglasses, card holder, perfume, lip liner, concealer, lip balm, blister plasters and a mini moisturiser! Make up touch ups are usually required so i like to carry a few basics with me to do so throughout the day, the perfume keeps me smelling nice and blister plasters are so handy if i'm wearing uncomfy heels.
The detachable chain strap means it can be carried as a clutch, slipped into a larger travel bag, or worn with the chain as a cross body/shoulder bag so it's extra versatile - i love the embossed leather zip pull, and the printed red cotton lining is so pretty! I recommend checking out the full range of 1951 Maison Francaise bags, there's so many colours to choose from, here :).

What I Wore Today - Studded Becksondergaard scarf

I hope you had a great weekend, we spent it shopping in Birmingham hunting for sales bargains, eating Nandos and relaxing which was lovely! I'm wrapping up in this studded Becksondergaard scarf, as always the new season collection looks so good - there are lots of bright new Becksondergaard styles available at The Dressing Room, as well as a selection of leather goodies too! I think they're really easy to wear and drape so well making them extra cosy. 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 - Choies pink angora jumper

This super soft angora blend jumper from Choies is insanely fluffy and warm, it's like being cuddled! The sugary baby pink colour is so girly which I love, I've worn it with all black and an asymmetric pleather skirt from BANK - though the jumper is long enough to be worn as a little dress on its own but i like to have something underneath as an extra layer. The transparent shoulder detail is all mesh, which makes it feel quite glam and grown up, plus the balloon sleeves add even more quirkiness to it. These Tokyo Jane porcelain bracelets are so lovely to wear, they're really sleek and sit well on my wrists without being too heavy!
I hope you like my outfit :).

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 - So in fashion dress

This printed dress is such an easy throw on and go piece, it's from So In Fashion and comes in lots of other colours including navy blue and khaki as well as this dark red version - it's a bargain to at £25! I've worn it with a fedora and boots, i think it will also look good with some layering underneath for when it gets a bit chillier. The girl on the website is wearing it with a dark red bowler hat which looks amazing, so i'm tempted to find one similar! So In Fashion have lots of lovely things, i've spotted some awesome fringed kimonos and a cute daisy jumper, the prices are so reasonable too.
I hope you like my outfit :).

The Monday Piece - Mango roll neck jumper

This week's Monday Piece is on roll neck jumpers. It looks like my face is floating but i do have a neck, don't panic! Roll necks usually make an appearance during the season transition, they're great for layering under dresses, jackets and pinafore's. This one is from Mango and is a great fit, not too tight and the neck bit isn't too high, i got it in black to wear with everything but i love the dark grey version too. I've also spied a knitted, pastel blue roll neck in Zara which is a bit cute but pricey at £45.99! I've added my Paul's Boutique satchel and Choies cut out boots for a laid back look.
How would you wear a roll neck jumper?

Choies pink neoprene dress

Pink is everywhere at the moment, which is good for me because I can't get enough of it! Baby pink, bright pink, purple pink, any shade of pink I think is girly and cute! Dressing up in this Choies pink neoprene dress today, it's quite thick material and really well structured, good for swishing and twirling around in. I don't have many strappy or dainty shoes so these heeled sandals have been worn lots recently, I'd like a plain black suede pair with a blocky heel next. This awesome lion head necklace is from Claire's Accessories, the king of jewellery shops! Yesterday we went to Cheltenham, the shops were so good and I wanted everything but came back with nothing as we didn't have that much time, there's some lovely boutiques there selling Wildfox, Minkpink, and designer brands like Paul Smith and Vivienne Westwood - so there's always lots to feast my eyes on and temp me! I hope you like this dressy, pink dress :).

What I wore today - Becksondergaard scarf

Feeling a bit more colourful today with some awesome accessories. This super soft Becksondergaard scarf is an exclusive to The Dressing Room, the purple and mint colours are fab for autumn and it's big too so can be wrapped/thrown/snuggled around the neck - love it! I don't think i could ever have too many pairs of black skinny jeans ar simple tees, they're some of the most worn items in my wardrobe so i'm always thinking how i can brighten them up a little - this scarf and pink bag are doing a great job!  No hat today as i wear my fedora allllll the time, so i'm looking for another, maybe a charcoal grey bowler hat, and it's almost beanie season, hooray! :).
