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.

Dance To The Beat Of My Heart




Dress - Primark
Coat - Charity Shop
Boots - Topshop Attitude Boots ( v old)

Thanks Gawd it's Friiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiday! This is exactly the kind of outfit I would wear for drinks or dinner with friends on an evening such as this. The dress is another beaut from my most recent Primark haul (video HERE).
Yes it's another Primark skater dress but I love it! This one has slightly longer sleever and a Burberry esque monochromatic heart print and it's such an easy piece to dress up for a night out or dress down for work.
Necklace - Zara HERE

Such a simple dress,coat, boots combination has to be pulled together somehow and this Zara necklace does the trick and brings a little festive spirit. I'm not going to lie...I hate myself for it... but I did end up taking it back...it's beauty is undeniable but I just couldn't justify £30 for a necklace. Pretty sure it will end up on my Xmas list so fingers crossed for a future reunion!

Have an amazing weekend!

Stitch and Bitch

Fedora - Miss Selfridge HERE (black sold out online)
Cropped Jumper - Primark
Trousers - Primark
Heeled Brogues - Topshop (sale)
Necklace - Zara HERE



Ohhhhhh yes, more tartan!

I picked up this beaut cropped knit from Primark the other day and perfectly with my high waisted trousers. My midriff is a whole lot chunkier than I would like but I guess flashing the flesh won't be appropriate for much longer at this rate, so I'd better make the most of it!

On another note...this necklace makes me dieeeeeeeee. I spotted it on the Zara website the other day and decided to head to Oxford Circus to view it in the flesh in the hopes that I wouldn't like it and might save myself the money! But I just couldn't resist it... In real life it's a lot chunkier than on the website and the silver is a lot more dull and antique looking...it's amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiing. I'm left £20 lighter but I couldn't give a damn!

This outfit is one of my all time favourites for Autumn and I'd wear it with flat ankle boots or pumps during the day time or with courts in the evening.

What's your favourite piece of statement jewellery?
