Zara Sale

Zara Website

Zara is most definitely one of my favourite shops. I just love the simple elegance of all their pieces. My current wardrobe is predominantly monochrome and I've been getting a little bored of this. I decided to add a splash of colour and took full advantage of  the Zara summer sale! I am so in love with the coat and I really can't wait for autumn so I get to wear it properly, not that I'm wishing the sunshine away just yet though! Pictures don't do the trousers justice either, the print is gorgeous and they're so great for dressing up with a pair of chunky heels or dressing down with a baggy t-shirt to brighten up those lazy days. I also got some adorable bits for Toby too. By far the best boyswear on the high street!

Graduate Fashion Week 2014

Two weeks ago I was lucky enough to attend Graduate Fashion Week in London. My boyfriend Adams collection (pictured above) was selected to show for the De Monfort University catwalk and it was outstanding! The whole show was incredible and I cannot even begin to describe the level of talent. I also cannot even begin to describe how proud I am of him. He really has worked so incredibly hard for this and it really has paid off. His inspiration came from photographs of fishermen and trawlermen from the early twentieth century combined with unstructured tailoring. Key garments of the collection included knotted wool vests inspired by fishing nets and the technique originally used to make them. He also designed and developed his own prints and I definitely think I may have to 'borrow' the long purple shirt! Here are a few of my other favourites. I highly recommend you click here to see the whole show though as it really was amazing!

That green coat and those nude wedges. So effortlessly stunning and sophisticated. 

I think I'm in love!

If you're ever struggling for outfit ideas I seriously suggest you check out this blog. So much inspiration and so many amazing looks! 

eBay bargains!

1. Necklace 2. Shorts 3. Dress 4. Earrings 5. Shoes

I pretty much depend on eBay when it comes to funding and feeding my clothing habit. I sell my old pieces off once I'm bored of them and search eBay rigorously trying to find the latest bargains. These are a couple of my current favourite bits and pieces in my watch list. 

I am so so in love with those shoes! Better get searching for something to sell so I can buy them!

Its still the middle of Summer but the beautiful weather seems to have disappeared and been replaced with clouds and rain. As much as I'm missing the warmer weather its making me rather excited to get started on my Autumn/Winter wardrobe! Despite Summer being my favorite season weather wise, Winter is definitely my favorite when it comes to clothing. I just absolutely adore wrapping up and layering and there's just such a wider selection. So here is a few pieces take from my Winter wishlist! 

Anyone else getting excited to wrap up warm?

Lipstick - Revlon Pink About It

Recently I've been playing it safe colourwise and have generally just been sticking to monochrome. I've gotten a little bored now and have been wanting to try something a bit different. Usually I'm not particularly a fan of yellow (I don't even think I own a single yellow item!) but I saw this picture of Solange Knowles at the Max Mara launch event and its completely changed my mind and persuaded me to give it a try! 

Teamed with these gorgeous shoes I've had my eye on for a while now and my trusty matte pink Revlon lipstick and I think I'm onto a winner!

Perfect for summer evenings as well!

Dream Coat!

Jaeger

So I saw this coat on a 'who wore it best?' post on heatworld.com (I'm a sucker for gossip!) and I instantly fell in love! Those who know me know I absolutely adore leopard print and I've been looking for the perfect leopard print coat for years now. Its by Jaeger and at £199.00 sale price its a little out of my price range but a girl can still dream right?!

Summer dreaming

I am in love with absolutely everything about this photo! I've spent the last few days shopping for mine and Tobys summer wardrobes and I've completely lacked inspiration for me so I've mainly been focusing on his. In all honesty I don't think any little boy needs quite so many snazzy short sleeved shirts but I simply couldn't resist! But anyway, I basically saw this photo from carolinesmode.com and the colours just completely encouraged me to put together a little outfit.
I'm also a very big fan of the block colour trend at the minute so I'm finally inspired and my summer outfit planning has finally begun! 
Heres to hoping the weather makes an vast improvement...

Cos Sheer Stripe Top . Zara Flowing Shorts 

Zara Metal Detail Wedge Boot

Zara never fail to let me down!

You know when you find a shoe that you just simply must have in your life? 

This is one of those shoes.

These are definitely going to be the first thing I purchase after my shopping spree/crazy night out in London next week!
