WINTER IN SUMMER

T-shirt: Zara | Jacket: Marble Arc | Jeans: Topshop | Shoes: Vans | Necklace: Regal Rose 

----------------------------------------------

It's ridiculous that I'm posting this outfit in the middle of July, but as we all know, the English weather can't make up its mind! This t-shirt is another purchase I made in the Zara sale recently - I was drawn in by the interesting print and the colour immediately. I was hoping to pair it with some cute high-waisted denim shorts and sandals, but alas, nope! Not yet anyway - I still have hope! I kinda likes how it looks with my all-black outfit though; it makes for a really nice contrast; grungy but still a little colourful!

ASOS 90s STYLE DUNGAREES

T-shirt: Topshop | Dungarees: ASOS | Bomber: H&M | Necklace: Topshop | Shoes: Rihanna x Puma 

----------------------------------------------------

I featured these ASOS dungarees in my December wishlist, so my best friend had a peek & ever so sneakily bought them for me for Christmas! Yay! They're denim but they don't really feel like it - on ASOS they're actually described as 'stretch cotton denim' which really is how I would explain the feel of the material. This makes them so much easier to move in, & they don't have the restrictive feeling that the more old-school tough denim dungarees have. Apart from being super comfy, the thing I like most about them is that they can double up as both dungarees and as trousers if you wear something over the top of them. Sometimes I find myself getting into a monotonous cycle of just wearing black skinny jeans everyday, and feeling quite uninspired, but this is such a fantastic alternative, while still allowing you to remain weather-appropriate.

PASTEL PINK REEBOKS

Bomber jacket: Dahlia | Jeans: Levis via Motel Rocks | Belt: Topshop | Shoes: Reebok via Size? 

-----------------------------------------------

I'd been eyeing up these pastel pink Reebok trainers for a good while (insert heart eyes emoji) but at £72, I wasn't quite sure if I could part with my dwindling funds to buy them. I am sooo happy I did though, because, not only do I own nothing like them (mainly due to the colour and style) but they are also literally the comfiest things ever - it's honestly like walking on clouds. Ironically, I used to detest this style of Reebok back in the day, when my mum used to own a pair when they were big in the 90s. I guess I've come full circle now, because I absolutely love them - and I honestly wish I could have the pastel blue pair too! 

I've featured this Dahlia silk bomber on my blog before, but I thought I would style it a little differently this time, and pair it with a slightly more masculine vibe (even though the trainers are pink), and topped it all off with my trusty mom jeans! Such a comfy outfit, and I'm so pleased that I'm exploring colours outside of my usual monochrome palette!

CREEPING INTO AUTUMN

Crop: Motel Rocks | Dress: Bershka | Bomber: H&M | Bag: H&M | Shoes: Adidas 

----------------------------------------------

This H&M bomber - which I picked up in the sale for only £15 a couple of months ago - is a perfect transition piece for the forthcoming colder weather. I'm really not much of a winter dresser, but as this bomber is actually quite thick and warm, it's perfect to create a funky look and also to combat the chill. I also recently dug up these Adidas high-top sneakers from my wardrobe, which are also helping me transition from Summer to Autumn. Trainers and sneakers, generally, allow for a seamless adjustment between the seasons, and while I'm able to ditch all my old sandals and other summery shoes, they're still not the warm winter boot that I'm sure I'll be sporting in the next couple of months!

TRAINERS TREND

T-shirt: Topshop | Jeans: Topshop | Bomber jacket: H&M | Bag: Accessorize | Trainers: Nike via Footasylum

-------------------------------------------------

I must say I wasn't a huge fan of the trainers trend when it blew up last season - it just felt odd to wear the shoes I wear to the gym with my everyday outfits. But with this outfit, I had a change of heart, as I felt the trainers tied the look up together really well, especially as the outfit has quite a sporty and relaxed vibe, so the shoes aren't too contrasting in aesthetic and not too try-hard.

Here, I'm wearing my grey mesh Nike Roshe Runs, my black skinnies, my coral/salmon t-shirt (with sheer bits) for a pop of colour, and this awesome oversized bomber jacket that I picked up in the H&M sale the other day! I actually bought it in a size 14, because I hate it when bombers are too snug and fitted on me; I much prefer the more oversized and almost masculine vibe that oversized bombers can add to an outfit.

WHISTLES

I finally made a cheeky purchase from one of my favourite stores, Whistles! Usually, any time I peruse the shelves and rails, I leave the shop rather dejectedly, because, to be honest, anything in there very much exceeds any figure within my budget. This time, though, I left feeling quite pleased with the bargain I snagged up in the sale.

This cute pink cropped t-shirt was reduced from a painful £55 to just £15 - happy days! I thought it was quite a suitable addition to my wardrobe; great quality, versatile, easy to style, and perfect for the upcoming Spring months. 

For this outfit, I was feeling quite girly and pink for once, so I teamed it up with my gorge silk bomber jacket from Dahlia, and a lovely beaded necklace which was gifted to me. I decided to toughen up the look slightly with my Dr. Martens; one of my favourite things about styling outfits is clashing, be it with prints and colours, or also vibe and aesthetic.

[PS. no idea what the deal is with that dodgy crease right in the middle of the t-shirt - oops!]

Silver and grey market day

I hit central London once again yesterday; this time to be reunited with my cousin, who's here for a few months to complete a teaching placement! It was so so lovely to catch up over some tea and scones and browse the markets for some goodies (mostly cupcakes) - seems to be all I do these days!

I wore my amazing necklace that I bought from Dahlia a few months back, and a relatively new bomber jacket from H&M. I'm in love with the baroque-style pattern, and colour combo! I teamed these muted items with a faded salmon coloured t-shirt, black jeans, and cut-out leather boots.

I've been laying off the liquid eyeliner recently (which I used to swear by) so when I tried to revive my (usually) perfect little flick yesterday, I found it really hard to master! Practice makes perfect I guess...

Bought myself this cute necklace from Spitalfield's market! When it comes to jewellery, I usually stick to fairly easy options, like silver and gold, and don't tend to explore many other colours, so I figured this would go with loads of my outfits while adding a pop of something extra to my usually all-black or grey ensembles.
