Monochrome Magic..

 It's no secret that monochrome is one of the most classic looks of all time in the fashion world, and that's definitely evident from all of the looks seen on the runways, black and white has definitely been given a makeover and it's everywhere at the moment. Whilst this look is mostly made up of monochrome accessories and pieces, the pants are actually blue and white, another pair that I couldn't resit from Zara..

A Little Bit Of Sparkle..

Emerald has and forever will be one of my favourites, if not my main favourite colour. I love jewelled, silky and sparkly fabric tones and this H&M top that I was given at Christmas time was definitely that. An iridescent piece, I was instantly attracted to the sparkle! (as previously mentioned, magpie) and it's the perfect top to compliment some equally fancy trousers when you're going out, the kind of throw on outfit that you don't want to be too much, but yet still appear fancy. Although it's February now I'll still be wearing this at any occasion and I'll be forever on the hunt for more emerald treasures..

I Don't Need a Valentine, But..

It's officially Valentines Day! Whether you're single or spending it with someone you love, there's always room to incorporate some romantic, v-day inspiration into your wardrobe! For me, this is the perfect piece that I'll be sporting this weekend. In The Style are fast becoming known for their cute and affordable slogan tee's, and this 'I Don't Need A Valentine, I Need Valentino' jumper is no exception. I opted for the classic black colour to pair with my new leathers from Zara (obsessed) Whatever the day, the season, the holiday, or whether you're spending the day with friends or your loved one, there's always room to get into the swing of things and give a nod to whichever day is happening, either wearing a red lip or a cute heart motif top!

New Season Pieces..

We're fully into the swing of February now, and whilst I've tried to resist some of the new season pieces in the shops so far, I've definitely failed.. willpower needed.

Whilst they aren't exactly new or seasonal, some ripped jeans have been on my wishlist for a while to pair with chic separates a la Palermo (swoooon,she's my ultimate style crush). I've seen a lot of lilac and purple in the shops recently which works well for me as it happens to be one of my favourite colours. As I've said before, I'm a sucker for a floppy hat and was looking for one a little more spring appropriate, and whilst it appears dark on some pictures, in the light this Topshop one definitely gives off the pale grey/lilac vibe, perfect for the upcoming months.. 

I Wore.. Hat: Topshop. Top: Zara  Jeans: Topshop  Shoes: River Island (Similar, different colour way here)

                 

In Love With Oh My Love's LBD..

I have a sneaky confession to make.. I've never really been a big fan of the LBD. The little black dress has just never really been a wardrobe favourite of mine, mainly because I gravitate towards anything bright and colourful, or with some form of detail on. (magpieee) I've similarly never been a lover of lace, I think the majority of pieces can often look a little *whispers* dated, however this Oh My Love LBD that features a lace panel across the back is one of my favourite dresses I think I've worn. Instead of being bodycon or uncomfortably tight like lots of dresses, it was the softest and comfiest dress with lots of room to move in, and didn't cling in every single place. I'll definitely be frequenting their website more often, especially for more classic dresses like this one..

A Day Out: Leeds

Among many things to do on a girly day out, buying floppy hats to add to my collection, and having a delicious lunch at The Alchemist, rank highly. During a day trip down to Leeds, I indulged in cocktails, the best waffles EVER, and treated myself to a few too many new season pieces..
I've always had an obsession with floppy hats but with new shades and colours on the high street, I found it hard to resist.
That doesn't really explain why I bought this new black floppy hat from H&M but my excuse is I needed a black one as I don't have one, and that.. black goes with everything *I promise*. If you're ever in Leeds for the day, have a wander in trinity, indulge at The Alchemist, and see what all the shops have to offer..

Halloumi & Red Pepper Wrap.. I didn't try this but it's a wrap.. at The Alchemist.. it must be good.

One of the best chilli's I have ever eaten.. if not just for the presentation! A good portion size came in cute little pots stacked up that you disassembled to reveal rice, chilli, sauces and nachos..

This is my weakness whenever I visit here.. Cinamon waffles with ice cream and sauce.. *drools*

Cult Camel Coats..

I have been searching for the perfect camel coloured coat for FOREVER. I kept stumbling onto long and tailored pieces but I didn't want to go too Kim K, just a medium sized one that would keep me warm for the crazy windy weather we are having, as you can tell from these pictures. This cult Topshop coat has been quite hard to track down but I finally managed to get my hands on it. Throwing on my favourite Mulberry scarf, its definitely the one to keep me warm throughout this season..

I am wearing: Coat-Topshop    Scarf-Mulberry(Tried to track down this colour but it is hiding! Same scarf, different colour way here.)  Trousers-H&M(Old)   Boots-Hunter (I have worn these to death and they are sadly limited edition, booo you Hunter for all your amazing boots being limited edition!!!)   Watch-Michael Kors
