outfit of the week #91

denim jacket - zara  //  jumper - primark  //  trousers - zara  //  bag - primark  //  shoes - dorothy perkins

say hello to my new favourite trousers... last sunday i showed you some gorgeous bargain trainers from zara and this week its these amazing oxblood pleather trousers, I just love them, the colour, the length and the fact that they have a very forgiving elastic waistband, which certainly helped when the husband and i ate all of prezzo's on tuesday. we wanted to beat the valentines rush so we had our valentines early and getting to dress up on a week day is always fun. i love this jumper too, its actually a jumper dress but as you can see i've tucked it in, theres something about navy and stripes that look really smart and my cobalt blue courts always finish off an outfit perfectly.

White hi tops

jacket - new look  //  check shirt - h&m  //  tshirt - primark  //  jeans - primark  //  hi tops - c/o krisp clothing *

i'm all about the trainers this week. . . here i am in another pair, this time white, patent hi tops. they're so bright white you can't really see them in these photos (click on the link above for a better look). you can't really go wrong with an all b&w outfit and the hi tops really set the look off, although this amazing coat does play havoc with your eyesight. i' am forever bored of my hair so have lightened the tips for a very subtle ombre look. i like it but can already see me dying it all really dark brown again in a few weeks time.

Outfit of the week #90

denim jacket - zara  //  jumper - primark  //  jeans - primark  //  trainers - zara

you can't have missed the trainer trend hitting the tail end of the a/w season. adidas favourites, stan smiths, are everywhere on instagram, as are the obligatory new balance. but i can't afford these, we're currently saving hard so new clothes, especially expensive trainers are a definite no *feel sad* so when zara have a sale i hit it hard... welcome my new shoe addition, not only are they my fav colour right now but they were £9.99, yes £9.99, thank you once again zara sale.

thanks

Outfit of the week #87

cape - george@asda  //  jumper - primark  //  skirt - primark  //  boots - c/o online avenue *  //  belt - matalan (old)

i really like the cape trend thats happening this winter season, i love that floaty, boho, world traveller look, but couldn't ever commit to a design i liked. i didn't want to opt for the popular tartan/check look, plus i definitely have too much check in my wardrobe at the moment. so i was pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this cutie in asda last weekend. its a great neutral colour palette that will go with everything, the pattern is subtle but can easily be transitioned throughout the seasons i think. i wore this into london yesterday for a trip to the science museum and then a meal out and theatre trip as a wedding present from our friends. layering was my friend, as you can see from the random white specks in these photos, it was snowing and very cold. did you buy into the cape trend this season, how did you style yours?

Outfit of the week #86

denim jacket - zara (old)  //  checked shirt (worn underneath) - george@asda  //  tshirt - primark  // jeans - primark  //  hat - primark  //  shoes - h&m (old)

i' am very into my casual outfits at the moment, i think the chilly weather puts me off donning heels and baring flesh. And all the over indulging over christmas leaves us all feeling a little frumpy dumpy  right? So jeans, flats and quirky tshirts are definitely the way forward until March, fact. i've been wearing this top all weekend, yes its Harry Potter but its cool, in the know, Harry Potter and it was only £6 from good old primark, so its a must for all you hp fans. Hope you like this post

Thanks

Outfit of the week #85

jacket - c/o celeblook *  //  jumper - c/o blue vanilla *   //  jeans - Primark  //  boots - Matalan (old)  //  hat - primark

I love a hat, i literally live in a hat throughout the winter months so i was very happy to find this cute one in my little bag of Christmas presents from my Mum last week and it hasn't really left my head since. I also got this amazing satchel from the husband for Christmas. I've always had a white satchel but my current one was falling apart so i was on the hunt for new one. We found this one in a random bag shop for less then £20 and again i have used it everyday since. I love this jumper from blue vanilla, its such a great piece to casually throw on and looks great with a pair of black skinnies.

Outfit of the week #84

jumper - primark  //  skirt - c/o Sugarhillboutique *  //  shoes - ?  //  bag - primark  //  necklace - notonthehighstreet (old)

This is a little outfit i wore over the festive period. We went to see family on boxing day and i really wanted to wear this gorgeous skirt that etailpr sent me from sugarhillboutique, its such a cute print, a little glitzy and kinda reminds me of christmas trees. I wasn't brave enough for a bare leg so opted to wear with tights, which i usually hate with a midi but am pleasantly surprised. I think the black jumper and black tights work well together and the festive burgundy shoes and bag really make the outfit stand out. Check out my cute antler necklace too (present from the husband last year). So Christmas is over again, hope you've had a great time and now for the lead up to New Year. Have any of you braved the sales yet? We're attempting it today but i tend to ignore the sale rails and go for the nice, neat new arrivals, i can't be bothered with all the sales faffing around.

Thanks

Outfit of the week #83

Jacket - Zara (similar here) //  Shirt - H&M  //  Trousers - H&M  //  Shoes - Dorothy Perkins  //  Bag - primark //  Scarf - New look (similar here)

This cute oversized check shirt is possibly my favourite piece of clothing at the moment. I love it with these pleather trousers and denim jacket. I've been wearing this fur scarf from new look constantly since I brought it in October and am desperate to find the maroon Primark one i keep seeing on instagram and other blogs. I'm actually off shopping today (last minute presents, eek!) so fingers crossed I manage to grab it. I guess a lot of you have finished work/school for Christmas unfortunately for me I'm working right up until 4pm on Christmas eve but I do have a week off between christmas and new year. Hope you all have a fab week.

Thanks

Tartan coat

Coat - New Look (teens)  //  jumper - Primark  //  jeans - Primark //  bag - Primark  //  Shoes - F&F at Tesco 

Its all about staying warm in this weather right? Snuggly, oversized jumpers are the way forward until about March for me. I was really lucky to pick this coat up in the kids section of New Look for £20, its the perfect length and the tartan print on it is so wintery and gorgeous. Tesco are so on their shoe game right now, these little babies are so similar to a pair I nearly brought in Next but they are half the price.  Even though its cold I still can't stop wearing my ripped denim jeans, is it acceptable to wear tights under jeans, or do I need to embrace the cold knees?
Thanks
