Power Print



// Peplum Top - Asos // Trousers - Zara // Heels - Topshop //




I think that once the weather starts to get cooler and we head into A/W outfits tend to get duller; I'm the first to admit being guilty of this. This year I'm determined to keep colour in my wardrobe, at least for most of the time. This peplum top adds shape and a bold print to an outfit, I love this shade of blue (I'm channeling china plates) and I think it can be worn either with the usual dark colours as in this case, or for more of a statement could be paired with something brighter (I have red in mind). Another thing to mention about this outfit are my trousers, this casual, jogger esque shape is all over the high street in the minute and depending on the fabric can be either smart or casual, they are warm and comfy yet somehow still relatively stylish and are therefore a winter staple.

Thanks for reading guys!

Double Velvet




// Jacket - Topshop // Jumper - Missguided // Skirt - Asos // Boots Asos //





I think I may have a small obsession with velvet, its such a beautiful fabric, especially for autumn winter and theres something so classic about it. I love this wine coloured skirt that i recently got in the Asos sale, its the perfect colour for the season and being bodycon makes it super flattering. The Missguided jumper has a velvet front and chiffon back, I don't think the photos do it much justice as it looks a bit of an odd shape, but ever since I got this I've been wearing it whenever its cooler out. These boots will probably feature in many posts to come as they will be my winter staple. The pointed toe makes them a little quirky and being real rather they are bound to last for a couple of seasons at the least!

Ive got an exciting event coming up soon, so hopefully I will have some pictures to share with you in a couple of weeks, until then more outfit posts will be on the way!

Thanks for reading!
