Its that time of that year again, LFW! Here is my outfit choice of the day taken on my way to my first show, I was actually super excited, not that you can tell by my bitch face in these pictures, oops. I love seeing runway shows, the atmosphere is always amazing and its so exciting seeing brand new ideas and designs going down the catwalk right in front of you in such a fast paced show. 

Anyway I've been dying to wear this hat for ages, I absolutely love the colour! I've always found it quite hard to wear yellow, but its slowly becoming my new fave. I find a splash of yellow is perfect with a dark navy/grey outfit, or as i've worn in this post, camels and whites, to bring a little pop of colour. 

I wore with my tan culottes and this cute little tie around dress from ASOS which i've folded up as a top for a simple, slightly sophisticated look. I love the belted detail against the structured shift dress, which worked perfectly to disguise the hem when i folded it up- a simple and easy way to mix up things in your wardrobe. 

Now, time for cocktails.

The stripe obsession continues.. but for once in a fitted form, say what?! I actually got both this jumper and skirt in separate Zara sales, but they are the perfect match! I'm all for a matching set, so its extra exciting when I buy items separately and they're patterns or colours are identical or compliment each other perfectly! The fact that they are both knit wear makes me love these pieces even more! However the jumper is rather long, so i think i may cut that, but for now, you cant go wrong with a simple tuck.  

I don't know why i continue to buy summer clothes right though winter- these heeled sandals being the prime example, I blame topshop. Anyway, a chunky knit and coat cancels out bare legs or a peep toe right? (yes). Anyway in this case, my skirt is also knitwear, therefore definitely suitable for snowy conditions..   

Now to go and put on some socks..

Culottes, Stripes and all things nice

Hello i am back! Been crazily busy the last few weeks finishing off applications, working, and my birthday! Went to a cute sushi bar the other day, so took the opportunity to take a few pictures.

Biggest news since i've been gone.. i've finally got a new pair of trainers (yes that's bigger than passing my driving test, and turning 20) and they are my new obsession. You cant go wrong with a good pair of trainers, over sized shirt and a chunky knit, definitely the best investments for winter this year.

Yes, i have bought another pair of culottes (and I may or may not have another new pair waiting to be blogged...). I just cant help myself around them, baggy over sized and comfy- what more can you ask for? They do go with everything as the perfect statement piece; my favorite ensemble of course the chunky knit or over sized shirt, but you cant go wrong with a fitted top or a pair of chunky heels if your not comfortable with the full on androgynous look.

So, in conclusion, If you don't yet own a pair yet, what are you playing at? these babies will keep you going right through too summer.
