Recent Purchase.

The weekend is finally upon us, and since I finished at 3 today There was still some light to catch a few wee snaps of my most recent purchases.

This black maxi dress is a life saver if you're in a rush and just want to be comfy. It's from Monki.com and just reminds me of walking around in a blanket, perfect for work and casual days. Pair with a bold necklace and a wooly jumper.

I managed to pick up this daisy chain in forever 21 for a VERY reasonable price, it's perfect for brightening up some of the plainer things in the wardrobe.

Finally this cute wee hair bow also from Forever 21. I've been trying to find a clip on bow for ages which is small enough to fit on my head. This one is nice and dainty and adds a wee zing to any bun or pony.

Wish list- November 13'

Evening!

Again I am here creating a long long list of beautiful things which I simply cannot afford, but hey a girl can dream eh. Nike air max 1's are number one at the moment and these ones in particular have caught my eye. They are part of the limited edition collection from the collaboration between Liberty London and Nike, so better get saving up my tips. I love baggy t-shirts and high waisted jeans and the Joni jeans from topshop are extremely comfy and really good quality. I'm always loving my chains and midi rings. I also think I should invest in a laptop case before I break the overpriced machine...

Tartan Walkies.

Hellooo!

It seems like it's been raining forever , but when I looked out of the window this morning I finally saw some sunshine creeping through and decided to take my wee dog on a walk. Tartan is a top trend this A/W and I managed to grab a bargain with this lightweight tartan jumper from Primark for 12.99. Wear your tartan with a chunky gold necklace and it really brightens it up. Pair it with something simple and the tartan will become the focus of the outfit. I'm so lucky to live in a city with so much green space. All the photos are taken at Arthurs seat in Edinburgh.

A hint of Ox-blood.

Bonsoir.

I cannot get enough of boots this winter! There's just so many choices. Ox blood and deep reds are also really popular and add a really nice touch too any black and white outfits.

Outfit Inspo.

Hey guyz

I've been meaning to do an inspo post for ages.

Since the temperature seems to have dropped to -100 degrees here in Edinburgh it's time to wrap up and layer up. I would most likely throw a pair of thick tights into the mix with this combo but lets face it , tights aren't pretty. I've chosen to accessorise less as the pattern on the dress is so bold against the block colours on the jumper and coat. Layering a smock dress up with a woolly jumper and over sized coat is one of my favourite look this A/W.

Try it you'll love it.

OOTD 10/10/13

Hiyaaa

I had a lovely day off from work today and finally got a chance to catch up on Paris Fashion week. which looked amazing. I managed to squeeze a few shots of my outfit for the day . We had such a good Scottish summer, which seemed to last ages. However I think it may have just lost the battle with the winter chill as today was absolutely freezing. So I had my wee hat on, and huddled in a nice warm cafe with some good coffee and a good book all day.

A/W essentials 2013.

Hello!

A few of my Autumn/Winter essentials for the chilly months ahead. Of course I cant pick one, however I have just purchased the woolen coat on the top left and it is honestly the comfiest and warmest jacket I have ever owned.

OOTD 18/09/13

I had a late start at work today so thought I would actually make an effort before everything got covered in smoothie. I just bought this Pinafore from Forever 21 which is great. It didn't break the bank and you can wear it over and over again and make it look different every time. There's so many variations of pinafore's out there right now whether it's a patterned or a plain.

Wear your Pinafore with a basic tee in the daytime or a detailed crop top in the evening, tights, an over sized bag and some chunky boots.

Winter Boots.

The time has sadly come to be searching for ye olde winter boot again. it may seem a bit pessimistic looking for winter boots in September, however it's an investment and since there's snow due in October I'm not taking any risks.

The chelsea boot remains the winning shoe regarding comfort and durability however if you want to jazz things up cut out boots are extremely popular at the moment and come in all shapes and sizes. Wear your statement boots with a pair of fluffy socks, skinny jeans, retro sweat and an oversized woolen coat.

Black is the new black.

Hiya.
I have been trying to keep up to date with the A/W trends as much as possible and this is another of my favorites. What's more simple than a bit of black and white.
