Tied Up Tight

Coat - Charity Shop
Cardigan - Primark 
T Shirt - Primark 
Trousers - COS 
Boots - Primark 
Bag - Mulberry (gift)





This is what I wore yesterday for a leisurely pub lunch in the sunshine. With the weather being so sunny but cold I really couldn't work out what to wear so decided to layer up with my favourite coat and snazzy new cardigan. 

This cardigan is a dream. I picked it up on a casual trip to Primark for a fiver...five little pounds...yes please!! It's a burgundy aztec print with fluffy texture, perfect for layering up in these colder months. I wore it round my waist Will.i.am. style for most of the day until the chills really did settle in. Be prepared to see a whole lot more of this bad boy as it's shot straight into my staples!

Paired with my breton stripe tee, waxed trousers and Primark chelsea boots this was the perfect outfit for bumming around in the sunshine. I actually filmed myself getting ready and will be posting it on my Youtube channel at some point this week so watch out for that!

I hope you all had an amazing weekend!

Country Girl Take My Hand

Dress - Zara (sale)
Boots - New Look (sale) HERE

Necklace - Bohemian Collective HERE (DIYed to be a necklace)

The weather was so amazing the other weekend when I was at my parents house that Hector and I couldn't resist heading out to the fields to take some outfit photos of my favourite new pieces. 

This dress was something I'd had my eye on for a while when I saw it on the Zara website a couple of months ago. Although it's not at all my usual style it really caught my eye. The price tag was pretty hefty so I put it to the back of my mind...until...I saw it crop up on Instagram for the sale price of £12.99... Cue frantic phone calls to friends who could pop to Zara as it had totally sold out online!! My amazing friend Lydia came up with the goods and managed to find me a size M (I'd say a 10-12) whch is a perfect fit! It's just as beautiful in the flesh as it was online and I'm so happy that I managed to get my paws on it. 

My boots are another sale bargain from New Look and I'll be putting up a haul video very soon which features these bits and other beauties so take a leaf out of our book and keep an eye out for that...!


I hope you're all having a beautiful weekend!

The Big Pink


Coat - "vintage"
Trousers - COS (gift)
Boots - New Look sale HERE 
T Shirt - COS (gift)
Necklace - Zara 



If 2014 was the year for stepping outside of my comfort zone this coat is one of the biggest leaps I'll probably take! 

Unless you've lived under a rock for the last couple of months you can't have failed to notice that pink coats have been THE trend for AW2014. Although I love the look of them I am reluctant to buy something that I may only wear for a season or so but then this little beauty came into my life...for free!
I'm going to call it "vintage" but it's a hand-me-down from my Granny. Having admired it over Xmas I was only too pleased when she casually passed it onto me!

It's bright pink and fleecy...really not my cup of tea but there's something about it that I was instantly drawn to. What do you think? 

Teamed with messy hair and a simple outfit I think it's the perfect nod towards the current neon trend for SS14 and yes I've finally jumped on that bandwaggon. Pink Ladies together.

Urban Mermaid

Skeleton T Shirt - Primark similar HERE 
Checked Shirt - Primark (mens)
Sequin Skirt - Motel Rocks (last year) 
Boots - Matalan 

Sequins, skeletons and lumberjack plaid...doesn't sound like a winning combination but I kind of love it!

This really was a last minute "thrown together" outfit for a night out in Brixton. I wore it when we headed to Hootenanny's for a night of dancing to celebrate one of my best friends birthdays the other weekend. It was an amazing night and this outfit was the most perfect combination of party/gig wear!

What do you think of this mashed up outfit?

3 Years and Counting...

Sequin T Shirt - Matalan
Jeans - New Look similar HERE
Boots - Primark similar HERE
Fedora - Miss Selfridge similar HERE
Scarf - ASOS similar HERE

This is what I wore to celebrate mine and Dan's 3 year anniversary. I don't think either of us can honestly believe that it's been that long!!

We decided to go out for a low key curry HERE and it was totally amazing! Apparently the Beckham clan ate there a couple of weeks ago (there was plenty of photo evidence) so if you're ever in the area do check it out as it comes very highly recommended.





Date night is a chance to dress up so I popped on this sequin t shirt (from the Matalan sale last year) and my ripped New Look jeans. Paired with my faux suede chelsea boots from Primark this is the most perfect outfit for a celebratory curry evening!

Hope you're all having a lovely Saturday evening! I'm spending the weekend at my parents house in the country and am currently wrapped up in my onesie, in front of the fire, waiting for The Voice and Take Me Out...#perfectsaturdaynight
