outfit of the week #98 black and navy

another week is done and i'm a year older due to an unwelcome birthday on thursday. i never thought i'd be fussed about getting older but when it happens it kinda sucks. i won't be in my twenties for much longer and that makes me a little sad. on a more positive note i have fallen in love with the colour navy. these hybrid fashion trousers are gorgeous and so flattering. i know the 'rule' is don't wear black and navy together but i'm a big fan. i felt very chic and almost parisian in this little get up last sunday. the hair, might i add, is a little less parisian but hey it was a 'can't be bothered to wash it until later' kinda day. 

jacket - asos  //  top - primark  //  trousers - c/o hybrid *  //  shoes - f&f at tesco  //  bag - primark 

also loving these little pointed monochrome flats. i'm excited for the weather to cheer up so I can start wearing more open shoes and sandals, i hate having cold feet so my tootsies have been firmly under wraps all a/w, come on spring warm my feet.

thanks

Outfit of the week / French party

In between all the Christmas and New year festivities the boys family had a French themed party. The boy and I weren't really sure how to interpret this and didn't want to go for the stereotypical French persona of stripy breton and a moustache so we opted for Parisian chic. Well that was the plan anyway....

Jumper - c/o Chicnova *  //  Dress (worn as skirt) - Topshop  //  Bag - H&M  //  Shoes - Dorothy Perkins  //  Necklace - Gift  //  Headband - NewLook

What I ended up with was a little bit Parisian and a lot Sixties, ha! I loved it though and felt very glamorous. I'm tempted to wear my hair like this all the time, I love it! And it was surprisingly easy to do.. just a lot of backcombing, a lot of hairspray and a lot of kirby grips. Check out my awesome blue court shoes. These were a surprise Christmas present from my Mother, she picked them all by herself with no input from me. Brave lady, I'm quite fussy.

The French party itself was amazing! Lots of singing, giggles and awful French accents. We had amazing food to indulge in and plenty of wine to sip.

Thanks
