A MODERN TAKE ON A CLASSIC





Top // H&M (similar here)
Trousers // TOPSHOP
Bag // ZARA
Shoes // TOPSHOP (similar here)
Bangles // ZARA (similar here)
Watch // MICHAEL KORS

Going for drinks with friends or on a date night? I think this is the perfect outfit option!!

This midi wrap around shirt is a modern take on the classic white shirt. I love everything about it, the floaty fabric, the length, the wrap detail, the plunge neckline. I think it is the perfect mix of fashionable, elegant and a little sexy! 

The shirt is styled for an evening out with black jeans and the Topshop Gillian heels which have sold out in black. They do still have them in rust which would look great with this outfit and I have also found an almost identical pair from ASOS for almost half the price! 

If your want to wear this shirt styled down in the day pair it with Adidas Stan Smiths, a leather jacket and a chunky scarf.

What do you think to this outfit? How would you style this shirt? Comment below or send me a tweet, I would love to hear from you.

THE MOST STYLISH MONSTER I EVER DID SEE...

Halloween is creeping up on us so it is the perfect time to create a look featuring a stylish monster. This is not your usual monster, it is the luxurious Fendi kind! You have probably already seen the Fendi Bag Bug Monster, well now they have evolved! The fluffy eyebrows can be found on shoes, bags, coats, rucksacks & more. I have taken the 'Bag Bug' playfulness as inspiration & created two looks centred around my favourite piece the Fendi Micro Bag Bug Baguette Bag. 




I love mixing contrasting textures in fashion so the fluffiness & embellishment against the soft leather make this the perfect bag for me. I have taken inspiration from these playful textures when styling the two looks. 

Look number one has been styled with an embellished jean & fluffy coat. I have dressed it up with another Fendi monster this time the heeled kind. You could also style this look with trainers if you preferred a more casual look. 

Look two is a dressed up look again playing with textures. I have styled the bag with this gorgeous lace dress. It is a statement piece but the monochrome of the lace lets the colourful bag & other accessories be the main feature. This look is fun even down to the circular shapes on the Nicholas Kirkwood boots.

What do you think to the furry Fendi Monster, which look is your favourite? Comment below or tweet me!

LOVING LACE UP

Top // MISS GUIDED
Jeans // ZARA
Bag // DEPOP (alternative from NET-A-PORTER or HERE)
Shoes // TOPSHOP

You probably already know this but one of the key trends this summer was lace up! It was seen on tops, dresses, shoes, even the outside legs of jeans saw the eyelet & lace up detail. This trend sees no sign of stopping for winter so I thought this was a great transitional piece that will take me between summer & winter whilst still incorporating the lace up trend. 

As we have not quite reached freezing temperatures yet I choose to style this blouse with  blue jeans & the Topshop 'Nugget' sandals (again note the lace up trend!). However as the months get colder I will be teaming it with a chunky cardigan, black jeans & ankle or knee high boots. This top would also be great for night with leather trousers, heels & a clutch bag. 

Finally, look at the bag!! I would love to say it is the real Chloe Drew, unfortunately not but it is a very good replica style that I found on Depop. I have included links above for the real thing & a great looking copy incase the real Drew is a little out of budget like it was for me! 

What do you think to this outfit? How would you style this top? Comment below or send 
me a tweet, I would love to hear from you.

SUMMER SOPHISTICATION


D-ring Crop Top // ASOS
Grey Wrap Skirt // ASOS (alternative: ASOS)
Caged Stud Sandals // ZARA (alternative: Public Desire)
Embellished Clutch Bag // PRIMARK
Watch // Vintage Rolex (alternative: Michael Kors Lexington)

Maybe you have a wedding coming up or a summer graduation or even just a night out and are wondering what to wear... well this outfit is perfect for any summer occasion that calls for something dressy!

I was looking for an outfit to wear to a friends birthday. Searching ASOS I came across this wrap skirt and fell in love. ASOS had styled it with a black top which looked gorgeous on the model so I thought I would go for something similar with this black cut out top which I also found on ASOS. It has now gone down to only £8 in their sale so if you like it make sure you grab it whilst you can!! I teamed the look with my Zara caged studded sandals. I think they add an edgy vibe to the skirt as does the D-ring detail on the crop top. 

To finish off the whole look I styled it with this gorgeous embellished clutch from Primark, I know PRIMARK!! can you believe it? It has so much detail all for £10. It also has a chain strap so you can also wear it across the body if you wanted. I did buy it recently so it should still be in store if you want to get your hands on this beautiful summer accessory. 

What do you think to this outfit? How would you have styled this wrap skirt?
