Trend #1: Graphic.

Hello everyone :) I thought I would start a new feature here on the old blog, in the form of my favourite, current trends! 

GRAPHIC

Topshop leopard dress / Topshop Andy Warhol crop, / miss rebel daisy jumper, / Topshop denim skirt / H&M kitty flats,  / Make me chic heart glasses

Now I love a good graphic print, (see herehere and here!) and it looks like the highstreet does too. The secret seems to be bold colour and eye catching prints. Topshop have this down to a T, but H&M have some fab offerings; would you look at those Charlotte olympia-esque flats! This is such a fun, youthful trend, I think we all need a piece in our wardrobes :)

What do you think of this trend? Are you a fan of any of these items?

We're not lost, we're just finding our own way in the world.

OOTD #18

Alright me lovers? Hope you're all well.
It was my Dad's birthday on Sunday, and we ended up just going for a really nice , relaxed picnic at a place called Wimpole, the weather was glorious and it was just a really lovely day :)

Earrings- Miss selfridge
Top- Topshop
Watch- Olivia Burton
Jeans- Republic
Anklet-DIY
Flats - Primark

If you read my last haul then you would have seen this top, I obviously couldn't wait to wear it! 

As I mentioned before, I'n not one for any kind of animal print, but I just love this little top! It's slightly cropped but with high waisted jeans its not really noticeable. It does have a lower neckline than I'm used to, but thats not really a problem for me! 

I decided to wear a pair of my Primark flats with this outfit because I thought the tan colour went really nicely with my top, and I love the little laser-cut details! 


I also found my favourite earrings! I lost one of these for ages but they have been reunited! 


My watch was also of course on :)


My makeup and was pretty standard today, but nonetheless just how I like it! 


I'll hopefully be picking up a few more bits for my giveaway soon, oh I can't wait! 

What do you think of my outfit?

I just want to know you better now.

OOTD #3
Hello all, it's Saturday!
I've been really tiered this week, but for know good reason, so the weekend is going to be a welcome break :)
Like quite a lot of the UK, it snowed again last night where I live, I am so sick of it being cold and  really need some sun!I hope it's warm by Easter. Although it's freezing, I really wanted to wear my new leather jacket! I never dress for the weather, so I was fine :) I'm actually in denial that it's still feels like winter...




Leather Jacket- Asos
T-shirt- Topshop
Scarf- Boden
Leggings- Matalan
Boots- M&S
Earrings- Claire's
Ring- Republic

Let me start with my new leather jacket! this arrived yesterday and I love it! It's currently in the asos sale, for £35 down from £50, which I think is a brilliant saving. Obviously it's not real leather, but I think it feels really good, durable quality. Initially I was slightly put of by the sleeves, because they're cropped, but I actually really like them now. It also has some lovely little details, like the quilted shoulders and buckles on the side. Leather jackets seem to be having a bit of a `moment` right now, but I know I will wear this forever, as they never really go out of fashion. In short, I just love it!

My T-shirt is another Toppers purchase. I know you cant really see it fully,  but I couldn't face taking my coat off!


I love the slouchy fit of this tee, and it looks great left loose or tucked, I've opted for the latter here :) The swallow print is also really sweet; one thing I do love about Topshop is their designs. I will probably feature this on my blog when it's slightly warmer!

Now onto my leggings, I picked theses up a few weeks ago and have lived in them and my other pair (a dark grey,) simply because they are so super cosy! their really thick compared to a lot of my other leggings, so have kept me nice and warm. I love that they are almost like rinding pants, with the seem running up the middle. The little gold zips are a nice touch as well. I hadden't been into Matalan for a while, but they actually have some really nice stuff.

These boots are actually my mum's, but I stole them :) they're really warm and comfy and I think look lovely with my jacket, even if it does look a bit motor-bikey :)



I thought my outfit was looking a bit too monochrome, so I added this neon pink scarf! its so soft and cosy and the perfect bright pink, it always cheers me up as well :)

I've kept my jewelry quite simple today:


I like these earrings, because I think it makes me look like I have more piercings :) I've actually had these for ages, I haven't been in Claire's for so long!


I always seem to have a cross in my outfit somewhere, so today its in ring form :) I like this, as it has a sort of drop feature, rather than being actually attached, I don't know! hard to explain...

Ive got H&M `Get a rose 4 me` on my nails, which I've been craving to wear after I blogged about it this week! I attempted some nail art (polka dots to be precise) , but it didn't turn out to well :)



Sorry about how uneven my eyes look!
My make up is just standard today really, I used my trusty Cream puff on my lips (shade three!) which I love for a my-lips-but-better-look. I've just shoved my hair up into a messy bun, my favourite easy hairstyle :)
There we have it! I have English work which needs doing for a CASS this week, so it looks like that's what I'm going to be doing today.
Whats the weather like where you live? How are you spending Saturday?
Alice
