Beautiful things

TOPSHOP UNIQUE AW12

Wowzer.... absolutely bloody LOVED the topshop unique aw12 collection at LFW!!! So proud of all the designers, they beat the pants off everyone else. Loved all the shades of khaki, the lace up boots and boxy midi's - all of my favourite things at the moment.

Been s*** with the blogging recently I know, life has been pretttttttty intense!! But when ever is it not I suppose! Anyway bought some amazing new bits recently I want to show off... including a gorge Acne jumper. It has to be my first expensive peice of clothing I've ever bought, absolutely can not afford it but the sales man was far too convincing I gave in. I feel like I need to do a bit of vintage shopping soon though.... my wardrobe has become far too much Topshop and not much else (not that that's a bad thing but you know what I mean!) Anyway, rant over!

Spanish Moss vintage

Love all of these looks and the way they have been styled.

Silk dress

My new silk dress from Topshop Boutique.... obsessed. Love how it hangs and how ridiculously oversized it is.There's nothing delicate about it, but that's why I like it. Apart from the fabric which is 100% silk. To be honest I think £80 is bloody good value for what you get with this beauty. Shoes are All Saints, they're a brilliant replacement from those ones that literally everyone bought from Topshop! Shame they actually belong to my housemate and not me!

Outfits

Some recent favourite outfits. Top photo I'm wearing a jumper by Zara, Topshop lace shorts and Kurt Geiger boots. Second photo is all Topshop and KG boots. Last photo Topshop coat, Cambridge satchel bag and yes, once more, those bloody Kurt Geiger boots! Clearly obsessed! Have a lovely weekend everyone, I'm going to Shoreditch House tonight with my beloved GBF Kai and the gang... very excited for the weekend eeeeee!!! xxx

Trini

I like her Alexa Chung-esque style....

Bralets Galore

It's been an ongoing obsession of mine for over a year now.... bralets with a midi or maxi skirt. I admit, I need to find new ways of wearing bralets. Maybe with trousers... although I'm not much of a trousery person.... Funnily enough, I always hated the idea of leather bralets. But saw the above photo of Wasson in a leather bralet AND she's wearing it with trousers - I think it looks amazing! 

What's inspiring me right now....

 I've heard someone say before that they think 'inspirational posts' are a boring cop out. I think this is total bull*** as quite frankly they are what I enjoy the most! It is a huge part of my job to look for inspirational images, therefore if it was a meaningless, boring thing to be interested in or post about then I'd definitely say I was in the wrong industry! I love getting ideas from other peoples outfits, photographs and blogs. It's that combination of ideas that ultimately produces my own ideas.... all original in some way, but they definitely came from somewhere! Anyway, rant over, I'm feeling very inspired by embellishment at the moment (as you can see, that embellished bra in particular!). Also excited for the new pastel colour palette for SS12. Floral organza a la Christopher Kane SS12. Cosmic prints. Aztecs. Still loving my winter fashions though, still desperate for a multi coloured fur like the one in the last picture!
