VISITING ANIMAL FRIENDS AT THE FARM





Jeans: Topshop | Shoes: Converse | Bag: Pimkie | Faux leather jacket: Mango


I wasn't even planning on writing anything for this outfit, but I thought I should just write a little disclaimer about this 'Vans' top. I'm not a fan of designer knock-offs; of course I love it when brands like Zara take inspiration from designers and create similar pieces that are more accessible to the average person, but not when a brand name is blatantly written on something that isn't an authentic piece. I actually bought this in a market in Thailand, with the intention of using it as a comfy top to sleep in, but then I randomly wore it out last weekend, and I decided that the photos were too pretty not too post :)

TREND: RIBBED DRESS

 

Dress: River Island | Choker: Topshop | Shoes: Converse 
----------------------------------------

I picked up this dress in the River Island sale a couple of weeks ago - such a great bargain at just £12. I had never quite gotten around to jumping on the ribbed dress bandwagon as I wasn't sure if it would flatter my shape or not. To be honest, I'm still not quite sure it does, as I'm quite pear-shaped, but anyway, I just decided to roll with it. I think this dress would look so cute paired up with a chunky knit cardigan and some lace-up sandals, but I decided to toughen it up a little with my Pink Floyd converse and tattoo choker. I love dresses like this because they make for fantastic transitional pieces that can be worn from day to night (especially somewhere more grungy like Shoreditch), and are also perfect for the warmer-but-not-warm-enough Spring weather we keep dipping in and out of at the moment.

Last season, I was lucky enough to attend one of Stylist Live's catwalk shows, showcasing emerging trends for AW15.

- Playsuit & Docs -

Here's my latest laid-back look that I wore to watch the London marathon on Sunday, which luckily passed right outside my flat. I really needed a casual summery playsuit that I could just throw on without too much thought, and I found this cute little number in New Look for an amazing bargain. I also found an adorable gingham pencil mini skirt, which I'll hopefully feature in another post soon! 


 I think that girly items like this look amazing with a slight edge, so I paired my playsuit with an oversized cardigan and my trusty Doc Martens, which can literally shake up any outfit and look super cute!

Motel DOES Rock

So last Friday, I ventured into central London and hit the Motel Rocks Spring sample sale. I was so so excited and evidently quite a keen bean because apparently I was one of the first to walk through the door and was given a Motel goodie bag, including some perfume and other goodies, and best of all - a '£20 off any £40 purchase' voucher. Oh my days... I definitely tried to play it cool when I was given it for fear of having it snatched off me if I became too weird, but inside me, my victory dance was haaaappening! 

So here's what I got! 






















Aaaaahhhhhhh! I'm so pleased with my purchases and can't wait to wear it all! Motel has some amazing new stuff on their website for the upcoming Spring months, so check it out HERE!
