My Current Favourite Dress

Tuesday, 24 November 2015

 
 


Dress- New Look
Jacket- George at Asda
Shoes- Topshop
Fedora- Asos
Rings- Empty Casket and random market stall
Bag- New Look
 
Hoorah an outfit post, it's been way too long. I'm trying to incorporate more dresses into my life again as I'm living in jeans as always. Now everyone knows I am a tartan and shirt lover so when I saw this dress I fell in love. It's loose and a decent length, I just hate a dress that just rides up. Plus its made up of a lovely dark shades of blues and reds. I feel really fashionable when wearing it and it's so easy to just put on add a leather jacket and you're ready to go.
My newest purchase is my navy blue fedora, the hats I'm loving are getting bigger and bigger. At first I was a bit scared to wear just caused its really wide brimmed, but I absolutely love it. Plus navy is a classic. The witch ring is an absolute gem, from my favourites at Empty Casket it just adds a hint of my personality without being over the top.
 




And my shoes, showing my love for burgundy, seriously I am obsessed at the moment. They fit in perfectly with the reds on the dress. I bought these thick soled brogues from Topshop as they reminded me of the Dr Marten brogues that I would love to get my hands on but a fraction of the price. Plus it makes a nice change from the mountain of black shoes I own. They are really well made, not the comfiest but I need to break them in a bit more. My small bag is something I always reach for. I call it my gig bag as its perfect for taking in London, its has a zip and folds over so there is no way my belongings are going anywhere out of my site.





I really like this outfit and think its perfect for the Autumn/Winter weather we're experiencing. It makes me feel girly, stylish and a bit grungy, so everything I like then.
Apologies about the bin in the background, not the best thing to look at. Honestly annoyed me so much when editing these. Well I'm off to work for the afternoon, the retail world is getting so busy in the weeks leading up to Christmas, help me!!

Welcome To The Jungle

T-shirt- Pull and Bear
Skirt- New Look
Fedora- H&M
Shoes- Converse
Rings- New Look

Yep rocking that fedora hat yet again, it's become a favourite of mine. I'm massively into hats now and it's quite brave for me to wear it :)
Trying to branch out a bit with this outfit. I am a natural wearer of a band t-shirt, I guess its cause I do love my music. However sometimes you can over wear a band t-shirt and jeans (what I'm known to live in). I saw this Guns N Roses t-shirt on the Pull and Bear website and fell in love with it. I guess it's because it wasn't the typical shirt design they are known for with their design on. I love the song' Welcome to the Jungle' and it's such a simple shirt to wear. Plus I'm really digging navy at the moment (blame my mum). I paired with this patterned skirt I bought back in the spring time. Haven't had the chance to wear it that much but it can be worn throughout the year. The colour scheme may not be very Autumnal but that won't put me off.  It has a really cool textured effect showcasing a range of blues, greens and purples. I think it  adds quite a bit of interest to this outfit! Trying to wear more dresses and skirts for every day. I go through phases where I just live in trousers. My converses are a pretty new addition, it just so happens they are the exact same colour as my t-shirt (told you I liked navy at the moment) :)

I don't know why I just really liked this outfit and wanted to share it. Although may have to change my skirt soon as my legs are a tad cold ha!



Covered in Elephants

jumpsuit- New Look (in the sale)
Fedora hat- H&M
Sandals- New Look
 
Elephant prints appear to be my thing at the moment, I constantly wear the skirt I got from Asos that features them and now I have this amazing jumpsuit. Every time I've gone into New Look recently I've seen it but never bothered to try it on. Once I saw it was on sale in my local store I knew I had to get it. It comes with a black studded belt too but I wanted to be extra comfy. Thank god for the elasticated waist. oh and added bonus it has pockets, WIN!  Today I went for a little venture into London to a couple of museums to do research for my third year project so I needed something that was comfortable to wear. It felt like the perfect mix of comfort but still looking 'trendy' (fyi I don't believe I am trendy at all). Being obsessed with blogging and watching Youtubers I have seen many of my favourite people wearing Fedora hats. I finally took the plunge and bought one a few weeks ago from H&M and I'm not going to lie I love it. I didn't realise how much people looked if you wore a hat, I definitely caught a few people staring on the train I got. Is it really that unusual for someone to wear a hat?? My sandals are a dream! Well saying that my feet are kinda paying the price now  ( hence why I'm not wearing them in the photos) but I'm still breaking them in. Plus my feet are so weak its getting quite worrying now :/. My mum actually spotted them and I just instantly had to have them. I love a chunky pair of sandals and with the cream colour I think they tick all the right boxes for summer.
 
I need to get some better background for outfit photos I know but right now I have to work with what I can :)
