Glittery Knits

Top- Forever 21// Necklace- Gift from Jay// Pants- Topshop// Brogues- Primark// Lipstick- Sally Hansen in Cherry Wine

Hey guys, how have you been? Sorry I haven't posted any outfits on here lately, I'm currently doing a course with Marks & Spencer via The Prince's Trust so I'm a little busy. I didn't want to let you down so I thought I'd share with you what I wore today. Say hello to my lovely glittery knit, I have a feeling you'll be seeing a lot more of her during Winter. There's nothing that I love more than pretty, glittery knitwear during the Festive Season so I thought I'd start early. Like everyone else, I fell head over heels in love with the Zimmermann Spring/Summer 2014 collection: long live metallics! I'm seriously so excited to incorporate more metallic pieces into my daily outfits. It just feels right during the chillier climate.

Hope you're having a good start to the week.

Hello September

Dress and Shoes- Boohoo// Lipstick- Papaya Punch by Sleek

Pinch, punch first of the month. I can't believe we've reached September already, so crazy. Although I've graduated and am no longer in education, Summer always feels like it's officially over for me once we're in September haha. Today I decided to catch some on some of Summer's last rays by wearing this very pretty floral print dress from boohoo. I managed to snap this beauty up for just £8 in their sale and paid only £18 for the cut out shoes. They are super comfortable to walk around in, believe it or not. Result!

Hope you've had a lovely weekend.

Florals and Giveaway Winners

 

 Playsuit- Love Label// Blazer- eBay (Miss Selfridge)// Wedges- New Look// Gold Chain- Regal Rose//

Jeez, where's this heatwave come from? The past few days have been a lot cooler and we've even seen some drizzly rain, so I thought that I'd be fine popping into town wearing this blazer. How little did I know that I'd be a sweaty Betty haha, not the best look. I've recently joined eBay and this blazer is my first ever purchase that I won for 99p. How lovely! You'd have noticed that I'm all about clashing prints these days so yet again, I've decided to do just that haha. In contrast to my previous outfits this ones more subtle as it's the clash of floral prints. What's Summer without a pretty floral playsuit, right?

About a month ago I hosted my first ever giveaway with Firmoo and I am happy to announce that the winners have been chosen. I'll be sending an email out very shortly. I just want to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who entered, it honestly meant a lot to me :)

Mix

 Tunic- Forever 21// Skirt- Next// Necklace- Gift from Greece// Jelly Sandals- Asos.

Hey everyone, hope you've been well. As always, I'm going to start with an apology!! Moving houses is a lot more stressful than I ever thought it would be. I've still got a lot of unpacking to do and what with applying for jobs and other necessities that come with changing your address and being a recent graduate: I've once again slacked at regularly posting on here.
Anyway, on to this outfit. Along with the all white trend, I'm also loving clashing and mixing different  contrasting patterns and prints together. This trend completely goes against a conventional look which is an element that I just find so appealing. What do you think?
There's still time to enter my giveaway, which you can do so here :) Hope you have a lovely weekend. What are your plans? I hope they're more eventful and entertaining than just unpacking :( Wish me luck!

Floral and Orange

After spending a week at home in South Wales, I've finally arrived back in Birmingham ready for tomorrows lecture. Scary to think that we're almost in the last week of February already. How time flies! However, I'm ever so excited to be stepping into the transition from Winter to Spring: fresh flowers in bloom, being able to leave the house with less layers on and the occasional spot of sunshine. 

Before rushing off for the train station, I nagged my mum to take a few snaps of my outfit. I love how the subtle burnt shade of the jacket compliments the busy floral pattern on my trousers. I decided to be jewellery free as I felt that the delicate detailing on the collar acted as a statement piece in itself.

Jacket- Hypnotic £7.99

White Blouse- Charity Shop

Trousers- Topshop £10 (Sale)

Shoes- Primark £13
