EYELASH LACE

 

Happy New Year everyone! I've been back home in Gibraltar for the past couple of weeks, and it's all been a bit hectic, which has left me with little to no time to post. But I'm finally back, and with a new year's resolution to update my blog more often!

I've been absolutely in love with eyelash lace items since they blew up last summer. I'm pretty sure this design of dress is a dupe of a designer's, but I can't quite remember which one. Anyway, after spotting this beauty on Missguided, I then found it on SheInside for a fraction of the price! 

I wore this same outfit on Christmas Eve with some lace up heeled booties with a fur cuff, but decided to opt for my trusty monk shoes for this laid back lunch outing. I teamed them up with a charcoal coat from my mum's wardrobe; a couple of sizes too big for me for a cool boyfriend effect.

Thanks for checking out my blog!

PANDA HAT

Magazines offer the best freebies and offers sometimes; a couple of weeks ago being no different when I got a cheeky voucher for 20% off H&M in Glamour. Hallelujaaaaah! H&M is one of my absolute faves, and it's already so decently priced, that the prospect of a further 20% off made me a happy bunny! 

I picked up this super snug maxi cardigan, which I am currently wearing to death! I also found this cute panda hat lying around on its lonesome, so decided to take him home with me! I just couldn't pass up those two bobbles :)

MOTEL MOHAIR

I'm pretty sure I featured this cropped jumper in one of my early blog posts at the beginning of this year, but the weather has started calling for it again! I picked it up at one of Motel Rocks' sample sales, where I always discover gems for a bargain. I usually find cropped jumpers quite uncomfortable but this one is perfect for pairing with my high-waisted mom jeans! (also from Motel) 

I teamed them with my new studded monk shoes, of course, which I've been wearing to death as of late! I doubt they'll be going anywhere soon, because I just purchased some high-waisted cigarette trousers from ASOS, which I hope to wear these babies with for an equally minimal but more chic look. 

Also, I'm loving this Nails Inc varnish! I honestly get some of my favourite things as freebees in magazines!

STUDDED MONK SHOES

After publishing my previous blog post (here), I really couldn't get these studded monk shoes out of my head, and finally caved. Considering that they were on sale, reduced from £35 to just £19, it was an offer I couldn't really pass up, especially since I've been after a simple pair of black brogues/loafers for ages. I needed some shoes that went with pretty much anything, especially my white jeans and mom jeans, which I usually find quite hard pairing with any of the shoes I already own. These babies are super comfortable but are also versatile and quite unique due to the studs and monk strap; a detail that I've been seeing all over the place recently.

I also picked up this grey jumper from H&M; like I don't have enough grey in my wardrobe - doh! In all seriousness, though, many of the grey jumpers I do own, I find quite restricting, either in size or fit, but this one is just perfect! It's slightly over-sized, but still feminine, extremely soft and also stretchy, which allows for more movement. 

I teamed the jeans and shoes with a simple V-neck tee from Primark (the boys' section of course) and added a hint of girliness (but not too much) with the Chanel dupe bag. It was given to me by my boyfriend's mum after a spring clean of her wardrobe. She told me it was a fake, so I'll take her word for it, but it honestly looks and feels as real as can be - such great quality, and such an awesome touch to a simple outfit!

I'm also loving the cute bracelets in Urban Outfitters recently! 

Next, I'm going to try and experiment with my monk shoes for a slightly more edgy and out-there look! Watch this space!
