COCOA CASHMERE x SS15 WISH LIST


I don't know about you guys, but when I think of cashmere, there's no doubt that the word 'quality' springs to mind. But aside from that, it's not something that particularly excites me. Cocoa Cashmere; a British knitwear brand based in London, has completely shifted my stilted perception, and that's really due to its contemporary, edgy and colourful characteristics.

Sometimes it's really worth investing in some good quality pieces that will last a lifetime, but when I'm spending money on clothes, I'm essentially on the lookout for items that will make me excited to wear them every single time. Cocoa Cashmere takes pieces from the usual simplicity we associate with cashmere, and turns them into something that little bit more special.

Designer Susan Bailey launched Cocoa Cashmere with the aim of communicating a style philosophy of timeless designs with a modern twist. Susan is passionate about designing knitwear, not only of amazing quality, but that also makes every woman feel special.

Here are some of my favourite pieces from the SS15 collection:


FEATHERWEIGHT CASHMERE EDGE TO EDGE CARDIGAN

METROPOLITAN STRIPE BOXY TUNIC


Every single piece is so effortless and chic; and something so simple to brighten up your wardrobe for the Spring/Summer months. They're all easy to style too; just pair them with a pair of grey ripped boyfriend jeans or even some cigarette pants and you're good to go! This brand is teeming with fantastic transition pieces to lead us from Winter to Spring. I can't wait to snag up some bits and style them myself!

MK ULTRA




So I finally took a trip to the farm near my flat, and what better backdrop for some blog photos? Evidently, I'm really feeling the clashing of colours and prints lately, and decided to experiment with an oversized partly-sheer tee and my colourful yet muted vintage jumper! I'm really loving the combo, and especially love them teamed up with my new necklace from a little shop in Tarifa, in Spain. 

Also, new bag guys! :D This baby was gifted to me by my boyfriend's mum - my bag collection is quite healthy and substantial at the moment!

COLOURFUL x SHEINSIDE


So with the money I've been making off selling some of my clothes on eBay (not very much), I decided to visit one of my fave websites SheInside to indulge slightly in one of my favourite activities! 

Now, I have to rave slightly about this site: not only is it amazing for its incredible diversity of clothing and accessories, but the prices are the best you'll find pretty much anywhere, and will easily compete with the likes of Primark! 
I'm not really a fan of dupes, and it's true that SheInside is riddled with them, but there's nothing better than satisifying my shopping craving when I'm broke with an exciting new piece, and spending hardly any money at all. 

Looking through my wardrobe, I've realised that it mainly consists of colours like black, grey or dark combinations, so I thought I'd liven it up a bit, in light of the recent weather we've been having! 


So I got myself this funky and colourful geometric print t-shirt for a measley £5.93 (and FREE shipping peeps!) Check it out HERE! 




I also finally wore my customised shoes out; an assignment for one of my recent modules in my course! Gotta love a good embellished pair of trainers! As you can probably tell by the painted eyes, these were inspired by one of my favourite labels, Kenzo, and I'm really happy with the way they turned out!
