Cropped Blazer




Blazer - HEDONIA £44 // Hat - ACCSESORYO £16.99 // Shoes - PUBLIC DESIRE £29.99 // Jeans - TOPSHOP £32 // Crop Top - TOP SHOP £14 // Bag - LA MODA £20

The thing I love about blazers is that it can make a outfit look casual or smart. I've gone for a casual look with this, and I'll most likely do another blog post where I will create a smart and formal look (i.e. an interview outfit). I love this blazer, the detail in the sleeve with the contrast lace floral design lifts this outfit away from blocking. For this look, a minimally subtle stretch of pattern is enough to achieve the lift. It looks great when thrown over any crop top, and I have chosen this half mesh crop which I bought last summer, it's still a favourite of mine. Something I particularly like about this blazer is the relaxed collar which allows the flexibility between formal and casual and well in with current trends. A pair of ripped jeans is an essential for a casual chic look. I've teamed it with my favourite chunky boots, a side bag and a hat to complete the look. This blazer is part of a set with a pair of shorts to match, perfect for a night out and a definite consideration for your New Years outfit!!

Merry Knitmas



Dress - AX PARIS £19.99 // Shawl - TK MAXX £24.99 // Bag - LA MODA £20 // Hat - H&M £7.99 // Boots - PUBLIC DESIRE £34.99

One thing I look forward to every winter is layering up the knitwear. This dress is a winter favourite and an essential. This is perfect to be in with this seasons trend of knitted turtle neck pull overs. Grey and black are my winter colours, so with this dress being my main focus, everything else has to be black. First of all, I am so excited I now have these beautiful over the knee boots that I have wanted for so long. Not only are they pretty cosy for winter but they just add a bit of class to each outfit. Of course, no winter outfit is really complete without a scarf of some sort, and that's because it's too cold without! But I am in love with this throw over, keeps me nice and cosy and goes with this look so well. Keeping it classy by adding my favourite hat of the summer and making it winter, and lastly a big black bag.

Red Glamour




Dress - AX PARIS £30 // Clutch - LA MODA £16 // Heels - BOOHOO £28

It's been a while since I've glammed up but what better way than to do it with this beautiful red midi dress from AX Paris. This little number is certainly a show stopper. I'm in love with it's simplistic detail of the gold lined plunge front which I've matched with a gold lined clutch. This dress is super tight and hugs your curves in all the right places. holding in and showing off your figure.

My look is 1920's glam inspired with a pair of nude heels, smokey brown eyes, thick eye liner, a bit of red lippy and loose curls to finish it off. Definitely a dress to consider for the big new yearsssss.

90s Amurrrrca







T-Shirt - HYPE £28 // Jumper - HYPE £44.99 // Jeans - TOPSHOP £39 // Shorts - VITAGE // Bag - LAMODA £20 // Converse - OFFICE £55 

When I was a baba, I lived in Seattle with my parents. I've been flicking through baby photo's recently and had fallen in love with how the style was over there back then, so I have taken these two pieces from Hype's recent collections and reworked using 90s Seattle America as my inspiration. 

The first tee from the 'Fats Food' collection takes an inspiration from Jeremy Scott's fast food inspired collection for AW14 and it is at the heart of American culture. I styled this going by a few photo's I found of my mum with the high waisted ripped jeans which have come back as a trend. This tee is oversized and can be worn alternatively as a dress, like I did when I did a shoot for the Fats Food collection. My second look is based around this crystal print jumper which again is oversized and can be worn as a long jumper rather than tucked in to denim like myself. These wonderful shorts have been a big part of my life these past few years, and they fit perfectly well with the look I was going for as they come straight from my mums 90s wardrobe. Keeping with the American style, I have styled both outfits with a cute little back pack and some grubby platform converse.

Beady Eye




Cardigan - PASS THE SALT £34 // Bra - URBAN OUTFITTERS £14 // Skirt - PRIMARK £7 // Necklaces - TRAVELS // Head Piece - JULIA CAMERON £70

I'm so in love with the chilled bohemian look and I'm so glad I have found Pass The Salt Clothing. This beautifully crafted beaded cardigan is one of many beaded garments in PTS's current collection. I have ever really worn anything beaded before but upon looking at their collection and experimenting with my own styling I have fallen in love with the light this catches, and how intricate and delicate it looks, giving such a striking look. This cardigan allows you to be able to wear you're favourite crop top/bralet and it still being seen, so I've chosen my favourite mesh bra. Letting my inner bohemian out I have worn a maxi skirt (I'm so in love with maxi skirt, I have loads, fave summer item) to keep it relaxed and a few necklaces I have picked up on my travels. And of course, a look like this would not be complete without a headpiece, so it had to be my luna blue topaz from a previous blog post because its just a stunning piece to wear.

Rose Satin




Jumper - USC £30 £16 // Jeans - TOPSHOP £39 // Shoes - PUBLIC DESIRE £24.99

Thinking of Christmas present ideas? This jumper is a perfect addition to someone's stocking at a very decent price. For a chilled day, wear this jumper with a pair of ripped jeans like I have and some big chunky boots.

This jumper is part of the premium Blackseal collection from Firetrap. I personally really like this jumper as a cosy winter addition as it features a rose patterned satin front, which makes me feel a little christmassy!
