BUMPING INTO RUSSELL BRAND


I've been after a grey pair of jeans for a while, and finally found THE comfiest pair in M&S. I was a little sceptical at first, because I usually swear by my trusty Topshop jeans, but unfortunately, I couldn't find any grey ones in Topshop, and these are actually cheaper! 


I tried to keep the look slightly more colourful than usual with this lovely maroon top from SheInside. I absolutely love the dainty cut-outs, neckline, and the straps, which add a hint of elegance to an otherwise simple outfit.

Blue Jeans -


Recently, I received great feedback from somebody regarding my blog, and was advised to post more of my everyday looks as opposed to occasional outfits - which usually tend to be what I wear on the weekends. The reason why I was only posting weekend outfits up until now is because I tend to spend a little more time on them, and my joy at the prospect of finally reaching these two freedom-filled days is somewhat reflected in my outfits, whereas on a day to day basis, I fear they'll be kinda blah and boring. But I've now decided to post my outfits more regularly, in order to showcase my style as effectively as possible! =]


If you're a follower of my blog, you'll know that I swear by my black (or striped) jeans - and now, of course, my beloved mom jeans - but I realised that I haven't really worn these navy blue Topshop jeans in yonks and pulled 'em out for a bit of attention. They go so nicely with my Docs - totally love the colour contrast - and, most importantly, they're super stretchy and SO comfy. 




This cute necklace was given to me by my mum after a nice jewellery spring cleaning session last year. I dunno about you guys, but I'm someone who goes through phases with jewellery. For some time, I'll be obsessed and be draped in necklaces, bracelets and rings, and then there are other periods of time where I just don't wear anything. I'm currently going through the latter, so I think a simple & understated gold necklace like this is perfect to spice up an outfit slightly, and can add a touch of girlyness to an otherwise ungirly outfit. 





So when I first got this top from the Motel Rocks sample sale, I had envisioned it as a crop top, as I was obsessed with the colours on the top half, and wasn't too sure about the horses. But the truth is that I simply haven't got around to cutting it up yet, and frankly, I'm kinda scared that I'm gonna ruin it. So I just wore the whole shabang and actually quite liked it, but I'm not too sure what its ultimate fate should be! What do you guys think?

Staple Skirt





Crop top: River Island | Cardigan: Zara | Skirt: H&M | Boots: Topshop | Sunglasses: RayBan

A couple of weeks back, I spent a lovely sunny Saturday walking along the Thames path to Greenwich, and for the first time ever, I walked the Greenwich foot tunnel under the river, which was pretty cool!

This crop top has made a fair few appearances lately - but it's just so perfect not only because of the weather, but because the aztec-y geometric print won't fail to add a little something to an otherwise plain-ish outfit! 

Currently, I'm enrolled at the London College of Style undertaking a short course in 'Fashion and Personal Styling'. The module I'm doing at the moment is teaching me all about different body shapes, and how to best enhance our natural assets but also disguise the areas of our bodies that make us feel insecure! For a girl like me who's not too well-endowed in the upper area and more hippy (word?) and pear shaped, I'm learning that high-waisted A-line skirts are perfect to show off all the right bits. 

I looove this skirt - it's super comfortable and versatile but most importantly, it's figure flattering and enhances my waist, which isn't as shapy as I'd like. It's definitely one of my wardrobe staples!
