Layers are a non-negotiable this time of year, but there's no reason not to spice them up with a little print-on-print (on-print-on-print) action. For me, that means stripes, plaid, houndstooth AND leopard, but hey, that's just how I roll. And even though it may sound like a seizure-inducing hot mess on paper, the visual is far from it... Or so I like to tell myself.

Happy Monday, friends! xx

{Wardrobe Wednesday} Don't Sweat It

It's no secret that sweatshirts have become my go -to this season — in fact, they've creeped up in outfit posts at a rate that would have alarmed 2010 Vickie. That's right my friends, only a few short years ago I would have turned my nose up at such items, scoffing at the very idea that sweatshirts could even remotely be a thing... Boy was past Vickie wrong! Now my collection seems to be growing by the day (don't worry Mr. AiF, it's just a figure of speech), so I figured I would show you all my current faves, plus a few that I have my eye on... Hey, you can never have too much of a good thing, am I right?

Gatsby

This was my outfit from a party on saturday. It was 1920's Gatsby themed! My dress isn't completely in theme but it's gold and has a big bow (plus it was £6) so I thought why not!. The photos were taken at my friend's house so they don't have the usual background and unfortunately some of them are a bit blurry (I really should have taken some more of the back and the lovely bow). In total my outfit cost £10 (my dress is from ebay and so are my shoes). 

How is your week going? What do you think of my outfit?

{Style} Birthday Dress...

I bought this dress last week with my birthday in mind, only plans change, and I didn't actually wear it in the end. Regardless of this — oh let's go ahead and call it "minor" — detail, this dress shall forever be known as "the birthday dress" in my mind and in my heart... Sniff sniff.

Thanks for all the birthday love here and through my platforms yesterday — I definitely appreciate all the love and well wishes! You guys are the bestest... xx

Who out there remembers (or if you're like me, still loves) the New Kids on the Block? Well if the early 90s in all their brightly coloured, geometric patterned, over-the-top glory rings any bells, you might see the link between my dress and the golden age of NKOTB... Or perhaps it brings a little Zach Morris to mind? Either way, this print is unabashedly early 90s and I couldn't love it more... What can I say, its got the right stuff.

What I Wore: Shopping

This is what I wore to go shopping and hang with my friend Kassandra last weekend... I really like this dress (it's new!) because it's casual yet polished, and uber comfy to boot. I decided to pair it with my trusty Forever 21 faux leather vest and H&M fringe bag to toughen it up, and added a braided headband to top things off (pun not intended)... And there you have it! Shopping ensemble complete.

Happy pre-weekending, my friends! xx

Do The Polka...

You've seen them sprawled across magazines, catwalks and virtually every square inch of retail space lately... That's right my friends, I'm talking about polka dots. There's nothing new about this timeless print, but the seasoned dot is hitting fall hard this year and I couldn't be more pleased. I don't know about you, but I plan on loading up with as many dot-emblazonded items as my wardrobe (and wallet) can handle this year!

What's your favourite trend for fall? xx
