5 outfits for Winter

I decided to create some Autumn/Winter themed outfits for you. Most of the outfits are from Motel (...literally drooling over some of the items they have at the moment!) with a few Topshop things thrown in. 

I've really been liking velvet in unusual colours recently and paired with a black leather skirt it can create a really edgy look. I'd never be brave enough to wear this fur jacket myself but if I was styling someone else, I'd definitely pick this out. 

PVC and metallic items are much more risky but I definitely think if styled in the right way it can look really stylish and not tacky (I love these images).

I love this dress so much and it's simplistic style is just perfect. I'd love to style it with something that contrasts this such as this printed bomber jacket and then finished off with this bag and gold chain necklace. 

I really like the subtle tartan items that are around at the moment, such as this skirt. It would go perfectly with this long sleeve crop top and the Topshop boots (which I love so so much!).

I couldn't really do a autumn/winter themed post without a tartan dress could I!?. I still don't actually own anything tartan so I always feel a surge of jealousy whenever I see someone else wearing it! I really want to buy a hat at some point (fingers crossed I'll actually find one that suits me!)

Which is your favourite? What have you bought this winter?

P.S. I'm going to be adding some more items in my shop this week so keep checking!

Topshop Xmas Wish List

I wanted to create my own version of the blogger Christmas wish list (only 5 weeks left!). I decided to keep mine to just Topshop as there are so many nice things in the shops at the moment that it would be so hard to narrow down (I had difficulty narrowing down only these items!). 

What do you want this Christmas? Which are your favourite pieces here?

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12

Party dress wish list

I visited Kingston University today to find out about their foundation course. It's definitely somewhere I'd like to study but it's so competitive only 10% of those who apply for the course actually receive a place so I'm not holding out too much hope! On another note, I've been buying quite a few things on ebay recently which I'll be sure to show you at some point in future outfit posts.  

As it's coming up to Christmas and the party season is getting closer, I thought I'd pick out some of the dresses I'd love to own this winter. My friend's having a Gatsby themed 18th party so I've been browsing ebay for cheap finds (let me know if you spot anything!) and have been lusting over a few other dresses on there as well. Anyway, for full price/ridiculously expensive outfits, here are my picks....

Nasty Gal Wish List

Has anyone else found that they've been subconsciously planning Autumn/Winter outfits in their head? The weather's not amazing here (I wouldn't exactly count 21 degrees and cloudy as 'summer' weather) so I guess it's made me think about what I might wear when it starts to get a bit colder. You know, it's only 4 and a half months until Christmas (...it's definitely too early to start thinking about that!). I'm not looking forward to it of course, I've enjoyed having bare legs and not having to worry about whether or not my outfit goes with my jacket, but I have to admit I'm looking forward to a bit of winter shopping! 

I've yet to come across a blogger who doesn't like Nasty Gal. I would definitely buy myself a few things from the shop if it wasn't for the fact that the postage to the UK is so expensive. Anyway, in a dream world, here are the items that I would pick out...

Sales Wish List

Hello! I thought I'd do a 'pick of the sales' type of post to show you what I've found whilst browsing countless sales online recently. I keep seeing so many bargains dotted around but I've had to keep my money in my purse unfortunately (actually rather difficult to do), to ensure I have enough money for my holiday to Spain (only 19 days to go - whoop! whoop!). I was pleasantly surprised by the Nasty Gal sale (I'm sure every blogger knows how great these clothes are, no need to explain) and almost decided to buy something until I realised postage was at least £10. I've only just realised I've left out Zara in my round up (oops), which just happens to be one of the most talked about sales around (I really should take note of things more often).

Anyway, here are some other items....

Which are your favourites? Have you found any bargains?
