OUTFIT POST: PLEATED SKIRTS AND LONG CARDIGANS

10 February 2015

So today has been pretty uneventful, I had some pretty amazing pancakes for breakfast, i've followed a Slimming world recipe, I'm gonna put the recipe up on the blog later in the week.
This week the blog is very Valentines themed so I thought i'd include this outfit post to break it up abit.
I really like my make up today, i'm gutted i'm not really doing anything. I'm off to the gym in a little while. I'm slightly gutted the post man hasn't been, I need to have some lunch but i'm not too sure what to have.
My outfits recently have all looked very similar i'm just loving black jeans or skirts with grey tops and cardigans. I love this Khaki cardigan from New Look, is so easy to pop on. Today i'm wearing it with my new pleated skirt* from TrendyClothings.co.uk, the skirt has a pleather/ wet look to it. Again it's really easy to wear with so many different things and this grey jersey top from New Look, it has a cut out back which is lovely. And my favourite boots from Public Desire. I seriously wear these too much but they are so comfy and they make me feel tall.

I'm hoping to get a few blog posts done as i'm going to be busy over the next few days with work and then i'm staying in a hotel for a night on Thursday and then shopping in Birmingham on Friday hopefully a cheeky trip to Ikea and then a lovely Saturday off for Valentines Day!

NOVEMBER WISH LIST

12 November 2014

Olivia Burton Watch // Nars Virtual Domination Cheek Palette // F&F Roll Neck Jumper//

Topshop Check skirt with lace // Chunky Boots from Pretty Little Thing // Anastasia DipBrow

With Christmas just around the corner i've been doing a spot of window shopping, i'm loving these roll neck jumpers right now. These ones from F&F clothing at tesco are a bargain at £8 each and come in a few different colours. I love this skirt that Llymlrs recently mentioned on her blog. I'm after a pair of chunky boots, these ones from pretty little thing are a little too high, I want something similar but not as high. The Olivia Burton watch is at the top of my wish list, I have 2 already but they have now released silver face watches!! All of my jewellery is pretty much silver apart from my watches so it would be great to have a silver one. The Anastasia dip brow is a product i've wanted to try for a while, i'm tempted to wait until I go to America to buy it. I'm loving the Nars Holiday Collection especially this gorgeous blush palette which is such a great value for money

OUTFIT POST: CHECK SKIRT, TARTAN SCARF

20 October 2014

Coat: Primark *// Scarf: H&M // Jumper: The Ragged Priest // Skirt: Topshop // Slip ons: Primark* // Bag: Folli Follie* // Necklace: Primark

I was so happy that the rain stayed away long enough for me to get some outfit photos done. I'm loving my bargain Primark jacket right now, it was only £23! I think its perfect for Autumn, I tend to go out in the so don't really want a huge big coat but this is perfect and keeps me warm enough. I've got my tartan scarf out! I love it. I am wearing so much black right now and so much monochrome but I love it. My scarf is just the right amount of colour. I finally have a pair of slip on's aswell, I got this pair from Primark. I tried on the Topshop ones that everyone has but I didn't think they suited me, they were just a little too sporty however these pointed ones from Primark are a bit more chic, and seem to suit me so much better!

*Disclosure, I was gifted a gift card from Intu Merry Hill and used this to purchase my coat and shoes, I haven't been asked to blog about my purchases and all opinions above are my own.

OUTFIT POST: FLORAL SKIRT AND PINK JACKET

5 September 2014

JACKET // F&F // VEST: TOPSHOP // SKIRT: PRIMARK //

SHOES: PRIMARK // NECKLACE RIVER ISLAND

Just been spending today doing some blogging and replying to emails. Had a cheeky McDonalds for lunch and then went to take these outfit photos. I love this jacket which I picked up in the F&F sale for a bargain £12. It's the most perfect bright pink colour and it's just so versatile. So far i've worn the jacket to work with a pair of black trousers, with a black skirt for date night with Clint and today with my midi skirt for a more smart/ casual look. I also got this skirt in the sale, it was a bargain at £5 from Primark I also have the pineapple version which you can see here. Primark Pineapple Midi Skirt

OUTFIT POST : Topshop Check Skirt

23 April 2014

Skirt: Topshop // Jumper : The Ragged Priest // Jacket : Topshop // Necklace :Topshop //

Bag Primark // Shoes: Topshop

We went for a meal last night at The Lost and Found in Birmingham, we were a tad early so we went for a stroll and took these photos. I'm really happy with them. If you follow me on instagram you will know I got the Nikon 1 and these were taken using that. I think the quality is really good and resembles the quality of a DSLR.

I will be blogging about our meal later so keep an eye out for that. Also we had a little spa day at The Marriott in Birmingham which was lovely. I'm not sure if I'm going to be blogging about my visit as I didn't take any photos but it was a really good day.

I loveee this skirt from Topshop, I thought i'd lost it so I haven't worn it for a while. I keep wearing my fluffy Ragged Priest jumper as well and I need to stop wearing jumpers now the weathers heating up abit.

I've been making some art work and if you follow me on instagram you will have seen it, would you guys like to see a update on the blog featuring my art work?

#Verybloggers Photoshoot

9 September 2013

Before I went away on holiday I was invited to the Very Bloggers photography fashion event, I responded straight away and was so excited to go. It took place in Liverpool so I got up very early to attend after my long train journey I arrived in liverpool and made my way to Very HQ.

After meeting the lovely Chyaz from www.chyaz.com , Sarah from www.sequinthis.com and Sarah from www.fashiondotty.com we had a tour of the very.co.uk hq which was massive ! From here we headed over to the studios.

We had a look at some of the latest collections from Love Label and Definitions and got to pick two outfits that we would get to wear for our photoshoot. We then went into hair and make up where we got to have a play with the latest collection from Love Label, I'm wearing one of the lipsticks that comes in a pack of three. Both Sarahs had their photo's done before me and the lipstick lasted the whole time and looked amazing in my photos, i'm very impressed.

I picked a gorgeous little gold sequin skirt and a Black lace bomber jacket to team together which I think looked rather. The jacket was really comfy and I loved the skirt I would wear it with a black jumper in the winter with tights and boots or with a simple cami for a night out, it's so versatile.

My other outfit was a PU leather dress that I fell in love with. It's so simple but effective, I teamed it with this gorgeous necklace and some heels.

I love the final images and will do a blog post with a selection of the photos. Here's a few behind the scenes photos and you can also watch Very's own behind the scenes video below.

I had an amazing day and met some lovely people and I would like to thank Miriam and the rest of the team who made the day great :)
