Minty Winter

Hello my darlings. For once it actually wasn't raining for the photo's!! Hooray! I'm trying really hard to not wear all dark colour this winter because I always fall into that trap. Enjoy :-)

Jacket, H&M - £24.99

Jumper, H&M - £14.99

Blouse, Primark - £5.00

Leather Look Trousers, River Island - £40.00

Necklace, H&M - £8.00(ish)

Jeffrey Campbell Big Lita Lookalikes, eBay - £34.99

As the weather conditions were pretty good today my sister managed to get a nice selection of photos. I love this jumper, I'm so happy with it! I've said before and I'll say it again, H&M have some really gorgeous things in this season and everything is such fantastic value! So for people that don't have a lot of money (like me) it's great. I also bought the jacket from there and I wear it all the time, my leather jacket is feeling a bit left out haha. 

I do love my leather look trousers from River Island but they don't look very shiny in these photos and I'm after some super shiny ones! I accessorised with my lovely statement necklace from H&M, I love the colour of the gems so much!! Finally I added my trusty Big Lita lookalikes which I really do wear too much, but they're seriously so comfy!!

Tonight is the staff Christmas party for where I used to work so it's going to be a good night, and I'll do a post on the outfit next weekend! Who else has their staff party this weekend? What are you all wearing? x

A Weekend Away

Hello everyone! I spent this weekend in Amsterdam with one of my friends and it was lovely, except from the weather and the fact we kept getting lost!! But it was a spontaneous adventure which can only be a good thing. We missed our flight out there and had to be transferred onto another flight which was 5 hours later, so to kill some time I asked my friend to take a few pictures for a blog post. Unfortunately I had to use a slightly crap camera because I didn't trust myself taking  my sisters SLR to Amsterdam haha! Enjoy.

Jacket, H&M - £24.99

Tee, Topshop - £18.00

Trousers, Topshop - £40.00

Boots, Office - £20.00

Necklace, H&M - £8.00(ish)

Rucksack, Topshop - £34.00

I have to admit the setting isn't the most beautiful, but you can blame Stansted Airport for that! I'll start with the jacket, which I absolutely love, it was such a bargain and there are other colours available too. I think it makes a nice change from a leather jacket, which all of us own!!

I chose a burgundy tee from Topshop because it was only £18 and I knew it would get a lot of wear. Oxblood is a popular colour at the moment so I thought this would be a cheap way to nail the trend! I don't usually shop in Topshop, because their clothes make me feel super fat as I always have to go up 1-2 sizes. However, on this occasion I ignored the number on the label and bought the clothes that I liked, and I'm really glad I did because the tee and trousers are two of my favourite items of clothing at the moment.

I've said before that I love the dogtooth print and I really fell in love with these trousers, I'm not much of a 'smart trouser' wearer usually so it's nice to have stepped out of my comfort zone.

You can't really see the necklace that well in these pictures but it's so gorgeous, I love it! H&M is definitely one of my favourite places to buy statement necklaces. I mentioned my bargain boots in my last post but here they are again! Finally, I took a rucksack with me to Amsterdam so I didn't have to pay for luggage, I really struggled to find one that I liked but I was happy with this denim and leather number in the end. Since buying it I have noticed the Accessorize have a lovely selection of rucksacks and I never thought to look in there, so if you're after one you should definitely check their's out x
