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!

An Update in Instagram - 100 Happy Days

So earlier this year I started the 100 Happy Days challenge on Instagram and yesterday I managed to complete it! I've been feeling a bit down the last few weeks. I got a new job which is fantastic and I really couldn't be happier, but I work the most unsociable hours and once Toby has gone to bed things do get  a bit lonely. I know it sounds really silly but it really has just reminded me to be a little bit more positive and that there is always something to smile about. After all, looking back at all the beautiful moments I managed to capture while completing this challenge, I really can't complain at all can I?!

Palazzo Trousers

1. White crop top  2. Zara palazzo trousers 3. Zara printed crop top 4. Mango black crop top 5.Mac lipstick 6. H&M silver rings 7. H&M silver earrings 8. ASOS black wedges

After far too long of pretty much living in nothing but leggings I decided to treat myself to this gorgeous pair of palazzo pants. They are ridiculously flattering and I really can't wait to wear them properly. All I need now is the perfect top to wear them with and also somewhere to actually wear them may be helpful...

Your feet look gorgeous

1. Black Chunky Cut Out Buckle Boots 2. White Chunky Tassel Loafers

So I've been on a little shoe spree recently. I decided to have a little look on New Looks website, I haven't shopped there in ages and I used to always buy my shoes there and its nice to see that once again they haven't let me down! I've been wanting a pair of chunky cut out buckle boots for ages now but didn't want to spendt too much but at £29.99 I couldn't go wrong! I also found the tassel loafers in the sale and simply couldn't resist, they're absolutely adorable! Only £11 as well. Another bargain! The only problem is the loafers are a little tight so they'll need stretching out a bit but that's just giving me another excuse to never take them off.

Winter Wishlist

I apologise for being a little quiet lately but I have just moved home and have only just got the internet back up and running.

Don't worry I have lots to update you on though so keep an eye out for more posts! 

For now though here are a few bits from my winter wish list. 

Enjoy!
