Monday morning you sure look fine ...

Monday, 30 September 2013

Well I don't know about you but Mondays are always a panic day for me, the weekend is over and I am running round trying to squeeze everything in. So as a rule Monday equals practical, but that isn't to say I stray too far away from stylish. Below is my ideal Monday morning outfit comfy, practical and have you seen those pumps if a girl needs to run around she can do it in style!

The skirt is Topshop and it is just something you could wear anywhere, dressing it up or down. The knit is from Warehouse and I really like it, although I can imagine it might be a bit like marmite, which I loathe by the way. But the pumps, oh the pumps, they are Katie Grand Loves Hogan and they are an instant winner over the daily dilemma of I want to look great but need to haul ass over London catching 6 tubes as I go. These I need!!

Finally I am in love with this collection of rings by Whistles, they come in a variety of colours each with a different shape within them and at only £20 a ring a girl can own more than one!!

Wrapped up and ready for conkers!

Friday, 27 September 2013

I am in full Autumn mode as I sit sipping giant mugs of tea enjoying a full evening of blogging, thinking about leaves falling and beautiful rich conkers sat in the trees.

So this evenings outfit is all about rich tones and being wrapped up! This Whistles jumper is fast becoming a blogger's favourite so it wasn't long before it appeared on Paper Thin, it is gorgeous the perfect jumper to snuggle up. My favourite find however is this burgundy boyfriend coat from New Look, it is gorgeous and an amazing price point (I am off to purchase tomorrow!)

The trousers are Topshop Boutique and I love the cut! ASOS never fails me and these Hoxton heels are a classic they will literally go with everything in your wardrobe, boyfriend jeans, midi skirt, masculine trousers literally everything!

Midi. Check.

Thursday, 26 September 2013

So as you probably have established I am a fan of the midi. I love the flexibility of the length, it works really well as a day to night piece and the look below is the perfect way to achieve this.

The midi is from Topshop and comes in an electric blue as well as the amazing olive, which wins for me hands down. The colour is just perfect for Autumn and with pink being the colour of the season this really is the perfect complement. Adding to this the splits give it a little edge whilst still making it suitable for everyday wear.

Joseph never fails to disappoint me for knitwear nor does Office for killer heels. However the clutch is the Pièce de résistance (if a little impractical but when is that ever really am issue?!) It is from Klear Klutch and stocked at ASOS, amazing!

Sunday girl.

Sunday, 22 September 2013

So the end of the weekend is almost here however I always like to make the most of my Sunday. Tonight is date night and I am currently living in boyfriend jeans with great knits. The Victoria Beckham ones below are an amazing purchase from The Outnet and Whistles are out doing themselves with knitwear this season.

I have added an oversized boyfriend coat in this season's colour, as well as these great flats from Zara which at under £25 are heading straight onto my payday purchase list!

As you will know from previous posts (see here) I am a Christopher Kane fan, and although I would have loved to showcase the floral feather-appliqué cashmere sweater which is at the very top of my never going to happen wish list hehe, I thought I would show the more everyday aspect of the label.

This cashmere open back sweater is amazing and is probably the most classic piece in the A/W 13 collection, I love it. You can wear styled below with jeans (Christopher Kane of course) and some killer heels or really go to town and team it with the animal-print goat and leather skirt, which is another favourite of mine.

My long standing love affair ...

Sunday, 15 September 2013

Paul Smith was one of the first labels I ever purchased, I was 17 and bought the I Heart PS pink boob tube (OK so not a classic granted) but I still have it today and it always makes me smile. After that I developed my palate and purchased a teal cardigan with silk panels, I think from the A/W 01 collection, which I wore constantly as the colour was amazing.

My love for Paul Smith has not faded over the years as it still fits my personal style so well, girly with a masculine edge and classic with a little quirk. So you may be a little surprised that I haven't gone with traditional layered trousers look they do so well, but I fell in love with this perfect winter cocktail dress and I hope you do too.

Enjoy and roll on 4pm!!

So it's day three of London Fashion Week, and this mornings post is showcasing all that I love about Temperley.

Classic yet contemporary, sexy but never obvious, perfect girliness with a strong edge.

If the SS14 Pre Collection is anything to go by 2pm today is going to hit the mark once more!
