Peach Cardigan


I had a major nightmare getting ready this morning. It was another one of those mornings when I pulled everything out of the closet and onto the floor. Really looking forward to facing that when I get home! I ended up wearing my black flat thigh high vintage boots that I had completely forgotten about. My vintage denim shorts, white vest and peach cardi from Topshop.

Just another Monday...


It was pouring with rain this morning which is just what you need on a Monday! I decided flat boots was the way to go so I wore my white tasselled vintage boots, Miss Selfridge pale denim dress, Miss Selfridge striped top, my Topshop belt and my Miss Selfridge faux fur coat.

Double Denim


I went to the Topshop and House of Holland shows for London Fashion Week today. I had a really bad hair day so I threw it up on top of my head and decided not to think about it. Instead I focused all my attention on my double denim outfit. It's the first time I have done double denim in years and I must admit I liked it! I wore my New Look boots, old Levis jeans, Topshop denim shirt, Topshop leather jacket and my John Lewis gilet.

New Denim Shirt


I bought a denim shirt in Topshop the other day for £30. I had a whole outfit planned for its first reveal but I couldn't find anything morning. I ended up wearing my new shirt with my grey American Apparel skirt, patent pumps from Russell and Bromley and my Maurie & Eve leather bodice from www.bunnyhug.co.uk I'm worried it might be a bit revealing for the office but there's not much I can do about that now!

The Morning After The Night Before...


The Brits was amazing but wow I'm tired today so I've gone for an easy to do look. A black jersey dress from Topshop, my Russell and Bromley pumps, a gold necklace I found in a drawer and my Topshop coat. Done.

The Brits


It's my first time at The Brits and I'm very excited! My friend Olivia Rubin who designed that zebra print dress made famous by Cheryl Cole has lent me a dress for the night. I have teamed it with my tuxedo jacket from Topshop, my New Look boots and my Mogil clutch from www.bunnyhug.co.uk

Tuesday


It's the day of The Brits and I haven't really thought about what I'm wearing - I'm more interested in what I'm going to wear tonight. I've gone for my black American Apparel body, high waisted Topshop denim shorts, my PPQ for Oli cardigan and my gold studded suede pumps from Russell and Bromley.

Valentine's Dinner


I went for dinner with Ben (my boyfriend) last night to celebrate Valentine's day. I planned on wearing my new harem trousers but then it starting raining and I decided they were too summery. Instead I wore a look inspired by Olivia Palermo which included my high waisted leather shorts from ASOS which are amazing LOVE LOVE LOVE! I teamed them with me black opaque tights, my purple checked pussy bow shirt from H&M, my suede peep toe boots from New Look and my snake skin clutch from Topshop.

Vintage Dungarees


I stayed at my mum and dad's again last night and didn't have anything to wear today so at lunchtime yesterday I went to Rokit to pick up some vintage denim shorts. Brilliantly I stumbled across a rail of dungarees! It was weird because I had only just looked at an image of them on the Ralph Lauren catwalk. They cost me £13.50 and I paired them with a cream smock top that I got from French Connection years ago, my Topshop boots, a necklace that I found at mum and dad's and a bangle from Freedom @ Topshop.

No leady no photy

I'm staying at my mum and dad's for a few nights and I don't have my camera lead so I can't put up my posts but don't worry I have been taking pics and will upload them on Friday night.

Thursday


I wanted some inspiration so I watched 90210 and noticed one of the girls wearing a plaid shirt. I decided to wear my green Topshop shirt (that Kylie Minogue has too) teamed with my Kate Moss for Topshop jeans and my battered old Topshop boots. There you have it - I'm unintentionally head to toe in Topshop!

Wednesday


I wanted to wear my new polka dot crop top with ruffles from New Look today (yes I bought quite a lot there last week but to be fair it only cost £10) so I decided to team it with my high waisted jeans from Topshop as no one wants to see a flash of tummy! It's freezing outside so I layered it with my long oatmeal cardi from Zara and added my statement necklace from New Look. I needed boots with just the right heel for the length of these jeans so went for my battered old Topshop tan boots. The good thing about these boots is the more battered they are the more vintage they look!

Ditsy Print


I wore my new ditsy print dress with ruffles that I bought from New Look. It taps into two trends so although I'm pretty skint I decided it was worth the £25 that it cost. I wanted to wear it with my black biker boots but thought my legs looked a bit chunky today so teamed it with my tan ankle boots and woven skinny belt from Topshop. I accessorised with bangles from Monsoon that I got as my secret Santa gift from work.

Manic Monday


This is me on my way back from a shoot...I look a bit wind swept but it's windy outside! I wanted to wear something comfortable for running around so I wore my Office boots which are really comfy even though they don't look it! My American Apparel joggers and hoodie, a Gap T-Shirt and my Dorothy Perkins necklace that I got as a gift and that's my Luella bag again.

Shoreditch House


I didn't take a photo of my Saturday outfit as I spent most of the day in my dressing gown painting my nails (a lovely taupe shade) and doing all the other stuff you need to do to get ready for a Saturday night out!

I went to dinner with my boyfriend and a couple of friends at Shoreditch House and wore my fabulous snakeskin Fashionista at Kurt Geiger shoes. My harem trousers from Topshop, my vest and necklace that I bought on Friday from the new New Look flagship store on Oxford Street and my vintage bag from Rokit in Covent Garden. Oh and my YSL ring.

Yay it's Friday!

I woke up with an urge to wear my blush lace top from H&M this morning. It’s quite old but I like to drag it out of my wardrobe every now and again. I pulled on my pale skinny Topshop jeans with great difficulty – but it's OK because I’m using my just out of the washing machine excuse! I love teaming pastels with pale denim. I wanted to wear heels but couldn’t be bothered to carry them into work and then change out of my flats so I settled for my flat brown suede Office thigh highs. Finally I put on my brown faux fur coat that I bought in a vintage shop in Brighton. It’s size 18 and reminds me of something Pat Butcher might wear but it was only a tenner and feels fabulous! Oh and that's my black patent Luella bag that I bought at a sample sale for £100 - bargainous!

Yesterday's Outfit


I wore this outfit on Christmas day but instead of these Office biker boots I wore my black ski-like boots that you've seen before. My dad didn't like it, mainly because my back was completely exposed but I'm 27 and there wasn't much he could do about it! My tutu is from Miss Selfridge, my velvet leotard is from Topshop and my belt (which I LOVE by the way) is from River Island.

My wear anywhere dress


I'm staying away tonight, but don't worry it involves a glamorous dinner invite and nothing (too) scandalous. I don’t know about you but I find it difficult to plan two days worth of outfits. So much to co-ordinate! It’s like a military operation which involves me writing a list of things I need to remember to bring including which underwear goes with which outfit and not forgetting the correct accessories. Once I’d planned tomorrow's outfit I didn't have much time to sort out today’s so I pulled out my faithful jersey Topshop dress that only cost £30 (I was well impressed with that as it looks about £100) black M&S tights, black suede ankle boots from Miss Selfridge (much more comfy than heels) and my gold studded H&M belt. Voila!

Dungarees


I tried out my new dungarees from ASOS today. I already have a dark blue pair but I bought a lighter denim pair which are more skinny. I tucked a white American Apparel tee inside, put my navy long Zara cardi over the top and gave myself some height (to avoid the overgrown toddler look) with my grey suede Pierre Hardy boots from Gap. Oh and I threw my Olivia Rubin scarf around my neck for added colour.

Dusting of snow determines my look



I woke up this morning to a dusting of snow on the ground meaning I had to wear flats to work. I really didn’t want to wear my biker boots that I literally lived in while it was snowing a few weeks ago so I opted for my red converse boots instead. I teamed them with black opaques from M&S (nothing less than 60 denier will do) a grey American Apparel skirt with a lighter grey tee from Gap and my Topshop denim waistcoat. Before I ran out the door to work I added my grey America Apparel hoodie, my Topshop leopard print coat and a black chunky knit scarf from Warehouse. Think I looked a bit mental with all these layers but it kept me warm.
