A TRICKY COMBINATION



Another quick post today! I had never realised how much I love the combination of black and brown! It's tricky to pull off if the shades aren't quite right, but for the most part, you really can't go wrong with a chocolate brown jumper and a leather jacket. I've been wearing this jacket to death recently; it's getting to that point in the year where the weather is just too warm for chunky coats, and perfect for leather jackets. YAY! Now I'm on the hunt for a duster coat..

PSYCHEDELIC



Just a quick post for today 'cause I've been soooo bogged down with work over the past couple of weeks, and had barely any time to post, let alone take photos! :( I'm so in love with my new leather that I got in the Mango sale for just £19.99 - such a bargain! Thought it looked pretty funky over my crazy psychedelic tie-dye tank top that I bought from a cool store in Ibiza; such a great piece to brighten up any outfit! And I completed the look with my old school Vans; I haven't really seen these around since I bought them yeeears ago. I think they might have been limited edition? Hmm..

TIE DYE & SPOTS



I love contrasting colours and shapes, and after delving into the depths of forgotten items in my wardrobe, I pulled out this thrifted green tie-dye t-shirt, and my old salmon and black spotty Vans. Together, they make for a really simple outfit, made slightly more interesting and eye-catching due to the clash of colours and prints. Once again, I paired it with my trusty black skinnies and long cardigan.

UNBOXING: LA MODA UK BOOTS


I finally got my hands on the gorgeous Zhiloh Black Lace Up Cleated Sole Boots from La Moda UK! When I first saw them pop up on the website, I fell in love straight away, and I knew these babies had to be mine. My lack of funds, however, informed me otherwise, but then, when La Moda UK had a 20% off weekend, I couldn't pass up the opportunity - or the bargain!



I thought I'd upload some photos of my unboxing experience, different angles as well as close-ups, for the benefit of those of you who may want a closer look at these beauties! 







They are so tall and beautiful, and to my boyfriend's dismay, I'll probably be taller than pretty much every human on the planet wearing these!



La Moda UK has an incredibly gorgeous range of shoes right now! I'm so so happy with these, but I think there's definitely some space in my wardrobe for more! 

Watch this space for a new blog post coming soon, where I'll style these babies up in a few different ways!

Check out LA MODA UK for some awesome pieces!

BLACK AND BLUE


Ever since cigarette & tapered trousers catapulted into the limelight last season, I fell in love with them and the opportunities they present to style some awesome looks. I always meant to get myself a pair but I never really got round to it, as I'm super picky when it comes to trousers that aren't jeans. Recently, I came across this gorgeous blue chequered pair on Choies, and I just couldn't resist! 



For some reason, based on the images on the website, I was under the impression that they were more cotton-like and stretchy, as opposed to this tight Polyester; but that's my fault really, for not reading the garment details properly. I got these in a size Medium, and I must say, I should have probably sized up, as they're a tad too tight, extremely teeny on the waist, and there's not much room for movement. But it's definitely worth suffering slightly, because I frikkin' love them! 


I paired them with a dainty black scallop vest, long grey/blue jumper, cut-out leather boots, and wide-brim hat! I really love how they can be styled in completely different ways to create various moods and looks! I'm so excited to style them again soon!

AUTUMN'S COMING


Hey guys! Just a quick outfit post; mainly to complain about the weather we've been having in London recently! It's now almost always overcast, rainy, and quite chilly - basically, it's unacceptable weather for August :( The only upside is that I really enjoy dressing for slightly cooler Autumn weather - it allows so many opportunities for layering & cool blazers or chunky knits! This kimono is perfect for this kind of weather, and looks awesome thrown over a simple, monochrome outfit! 



I'm also becoming more accustomed to wearing my white skinnies! They go with pretty much everything, but yet make for a more interesting look than the standard black skinny jeans I used to live in! Next, I'd like to get myself a slightly more dishevelled and ripped up pair! 



I got myself this new fringed leather bag while perusing the streets of London the other day with my friend. To be fair, it was less a matter of indulgence and more that I was actually in need of a cute bag in a colour other than black! I thought this was one was perfect to pair with loads of different outfits, as well as it being a great size, and also, I really can't pass up a bit of fringe!

Clearly, Autumn is on its way! But I'm kinda excited about it! :D

| REGALROSE |

 YAAAAAY! 


My REGALROSE necklace arrived yesterday! I am in lurve!


I first saw this necklace whilst watching Made in Chelsea a few weeks back. For those of you who don't watch it, one of the main members of the cast, Lucy Watson, was wearing it in a recent episode, and I was immediately drawn to it! It's definitely my kind of thing - slightly grungy but also really pretty and individual. I quickly realised that this brand was gaining quite a bit of traction in the blogosphere, and since my birthday's coming up in a couple of days (I seem to be justifying all my purchases with that line recently - oops!) I had to get it! 


It came in this cute little canvas bag :) 


This particular necklace is called the Apogee. Gunmetal and Crystal Chain Choker, and I decided to get it in matte silver, as I figured that it would be the most compatible with my wardrobe, and it's quite understated, which is exactly what I was after! 



They have a huge range of amazing jewellery and accessories, and some of their rings are to dieeee for! I really want to get my hands on some of those soon! Check out their stuff below:




I had to pop out for a sec, so I teamed my choker up with a simple outfit - all black, what's new! I tried to break it up a bit with my oversized flannel shirt, and I also just realised that my t-shirt actually looks like a deep purple colour in the light. Hmmm..
