Come Alive

Asos AW14 Trend

Jacket: River Island at ASOS c/o

Top: River Island at ASOS c/o

Trousers: Topshop

Shoes: Adidas Superstar 2.0

It's really time to start thinking about Autumn but needless to say it needs to be done. I've teamed up ASOS and River Island to take part in their Autumn Trend Guide showcasing this seasons but must trends.  I grew up in the nineties so it's not surprising that I take a lot of influence from this decade - it's also no secret that I love my Adidas trainers so they will definitely be following me into Fall! This look for me hints towards 90s normcore with a modern twist and is my take on a growing trend. This jacket is also the most comfortable thing ever!

What do you think?

Between the Lines

Blazer: ASOS

T-Shirt: Cos (similar)

Culottes: ASOS

Sandals: Topshop

Sunglasses: Rayban

For me, 'stripes' is a trend I most certainly couldn't stay away from, despite typically being known for simple looks. It adds definition to any outfit you chose to wear them with and can completely transform (or what I've tried to do here, at least) even a simple shorts and t-shirt look into something worth blogging about (IMHO).

You might remember me posting this little darling of a blazer on my blog here a short time ago as something I was lusting after - well I managed to pick it up in the ASOS sale! Now that is patience paying off (literally) right there!

What do you think of this outfit? I've been playing around with different styles of photography lately so still in the teething stages of finding what works for my blog.

Oh, and I know I kind of have bitch face going on here but it was seriously hot taking these photos! SOZ!

ASOS Epic Summer Party

I was so lucky to be invited to the ASOS #EpicSummer party event at their HQ in London last week. It was so much fun and I got to meet some lovely new people and fellow bloggers! I headed up their with my friend, and fellow blogger, Islay and couldn't resist a bit of shopping and Laduree macaroons (see my Instagram).

See my previous post for what I wore to the event!

Thanks for reading, and thanks for a great party ASOS!

What I Wore: ASOS Epic Summer Party

Top: ACNE Studios

Jeans: All Saints (Similar here)

Shoes: Stuart Weitzman

Bag: Whistles

Bracelet: Monica Vinader

Watch: Michael Kors

I do love a good opportunity to go into the City - London is just so beautiful it's always a pleasure each and every time I go. It's also great for street style; people are so unique and individual.

 

So this is the outfit I chose for the ASOS Epic Summer party at their HQ yesterday. I'm completely in love with this Acne Studios top, its neutral tones will go with just everything! My new Whistles clutch has also had it's first day trip! More photos from the event coming soon :)

New In: Ankle Boots

Last week I went shopping to desperately try and find a new pair of black ankle boots I can just throw on and wear whatever-the-weather (so nothing expensive that I won't want to take out the box with the slight threat of rain!). I, however, had no such luck and went home with a disappointed look on my face.

The next day I received an email from ASOS with a flash sale on boots and voila! What do you know, there were my perfect boots! Leather, tick, black, tick, flat, tick! Needless to say I ordered these Dune beauties straight away.

What do you think? I apologise in advance for the amount these things are going to feature in my outfit posts! They go with everything!

They're still on sale! You can get them Here

Rainy Days

Finally got a day off to take some photos with a new lens and a new clothes haul :). The weather's been so bad lately; England got hit by a storm last week and it's been raining pretty much every day since! Not great for taking photos...However, I have some great new posts lined up and with a new layout I'm hopefully taking this blog to the next stage.

Hope you like todays outfit, it's a casual one and probably one of the last opportunities to leave the house without a thick coat on!

Jeans: BDG at Urban Outfitters

Boots: Dune

Here are a few of my favourites this winter that are on my list (and my 'lust' list, no harm in window shopping!).

Which are your favourites?

1. All Saints

2. Alice and Olivia

Sorry about the lack of posts lately, I've been really busy with graduate applications and work but hopefully this weekend I should be able to catch up with everything! I'm also excited for a new layout and new camera lens this week!
