Pink and Silver

Jumper and Dress- Topshop// Necklace- H&M// Brogues- Primark// Tights- Miss Selfridge

Following on from yesterday's post, I just can't seem to stop layering. I always love the illusion of a dress transforming into a skirt once it's layered over with a great, chunky knitwear. I happened to pinch this pretty number and the metallic dress from my sister. I swear I love her wardrobe more than mine, so typical but I'm not even sorry haha. I guess I've completely re-conformed and fallen in love with this seasons most prominent colour. I'll try not to dig through childhood photos where my everyday outfits were compilations of every shades of pink thrown together though. Oops.

Rose Pink

Top- Oh My Love// Trousers- Next// Jelly Sandals- Asos// Earrings- Everours

Ah soft, pastel pink! I felt like my 6 year old self when I ordered this adorably pretty rose mesh piece from Oh My Love. I've wanted this rose 3D mesh top for so long but just couldn't afford the AmericanApparel one so I'm very grateful that I grabbed this bargain for only a tenner. Cheers OML!

   

For some reason, I didn't wear it as much as I thought I would over the Summer, but as pink is the most dominant colour for this season I thought I'd give this top extra love. 

I'm still the biggest fan of anything high waisted as they actually make me feel like I have long legs haha. 

How's your week going? :)

Pink and Black

Crop top- Primark £3.00 // Skirt- Mum's// Socks- Primark £1.50// Shoes- Boohoo £18// Necklace- Gift

I found this interesting little quote on instagram by Yohji Yamamoto: 'Black is modest and arrogant at the same time. Black is lazy and easy- but mysterious.' This pretty much summed up why I used to dress head to toe in black. Maybe it was because I was quite a shy teenager growing up in a small little town in South Wales. Wearing all black was sort of a saviour for me; it allowed me to feel like I blended in in a place where I felt like I stood out like a sore thumb. This might be hard to believe as my past outfit posts have all been bright, colourful and clashing printed garments that have been finished off with on trend statement accessories. As I left school and went away for university, I enjoyed and appreciated fashion even more. I've enjoyed exploring different trends and styles that captivate me and allow me to express my emotions.

Anyway, apologies for that. I don't usually share such personal and thoughtful things on here haha. So on to this outfit. This lovely little baggy crop top was a perfect steal from Primark at just £3. You know I love a good bargain! I decided to team it with this gorgeous pink and black plaid skirt which belongs to my mum. I am so happy that plaids and tartan are in for A/W. Such a patriotic and lovely look that you can have some fun dressing up and down with. As it's getting a little chillier I decided to wear my frilly socks (also from Primark for £1.50- hey bargain #2)! You know this outfit wouldn't be complete without a statement piece of accessory. 

Thank you to my lovely boyfriend for taking these pictures :)

Hope you're having a lovely evening.

Mint

Hello everyone :) Hope you've been enjoying the lovely sunshine. It's such an amazing feeling to able to wake up with the sun shining against your skin- ah bliss!

Colour blocking has always been a look that I enjoy experimenting with, especially if it means that you mix and match colours from different ends of the pantone palette. In this case, I teamed up a minty pastel jumper with a neon pink skirt (it doesn't look very neony in the first picture). My favourite part of the outfit is my £1  bag that I purchased from a charity shop. I love that it's Navajo inspired as I think that it's a nice touch to add to any outfit. What do you guys think? :)

Hope you've all had a great weekend and best of luck for the week ahead if you've got exams.
