Warm Rain

 

Skater skirts have such a flattering shape before I bought this skirt from Topshop I was a little wary of them as I normally lean more towards a fitted skirt but after purchasing this one I really like the style. I doubt I will go out and buy another one but this simple black one will suffice .... for now. The first time I ever wore the skirt was with some polka dot tights from good old M&S but sadly I ripped them on my handbag?! I know, I don't understand how it happened either. These boots are New Look jobbies from last year (I think) they have a lovely chunky heel & a nice bit of exposed zip detail.

I'm not sure what to do with my hair, I can't decide whether to chop it all off or leave it... I won't be able to get it done again till after Christmas and New Year so I could go really messy. Ahhh I can't decide.

Style Crush #18

This weeks Style Crush post features my 2 favourite looks from the Style Awards this week.

 Gemma Arterton

 Stella McCartney

Gemma Arterton & Stella McCartney are my favourites from the Brittish Fashion Awards this year. Everything about their looks is very simple - something I like - yet stylish & put together.

Gemma Arterton's black cut off blazer & pants showed off her beautiful figure to perfection plus she added some fierce (I can't pull off saying that word, my apologises) shoes. Everything about it just screams classic, stylish & chic. 

Stella McCartney is someone who I have looked at her designs & loved but never considered her personal style up until this point. This jumpsuit is amazing. It has a feel of it shouldn't work about it due it's baggy shape but it works so well it cannot be put into words. The added sparkle on the side & the simple black flats - perfection. So much perfection in fact that I have wasted a little too much time searching through style photos of the lady herself!

Style Crush #17

Olivia Palermo is a previous Style Crush but this girl has more style in her left pinky than is fair, to be honest, so she is a Style Crush for a 2nd time. I'm sure she is jumping for joy at this fact...

 This weeks Style Crush post is based on Olivia Palermo & her fur gilets, something her & I have in common is our love for this winter warmer although I have a feeling hers may be slightly more expensive and luxurious than mine but nonetheless a girl can dream!

My favourites are definitely between the last 3, the 2nd outfit has a gorgeous mix of colours, textures and prints which works so well but outfit number 3 ticks all the boxes too as does 4. Basically I can't choose!

What is your favourite?

We might get a chance to talk and talk might lead to dancing

I have a strange sense of achievement about this outfit as it isn't all black, it is mostly black but not all black is an achievement for me. I'm trying my hardest to break the all blackness that is my wardrobe. Even went crazy today & bought a blue tshirt!

River Island Disco pants are love. They are 100% the most comfortable trousers I own & go with almost anything & everything. I'm feeling better about myself today, just had one of those meh days but you were all so lovely in the comments so thank you! I think it is nice when girls show other girls support or a genuine comment or compliment as sometimes girls can be quite catty.

Sunday Diary #4

Seen as I totally forgot to do the Sunday Diary post yesterday we are going to live life in the crazy lane today & have the Sunday post on a ... Monday! I know, I feel like this is too much craziness as well!

I spent this weekend working & doing an extremely good job of avoiding writing my literature review section of my dissertation proposal. I plan to start it after this... promise.

What else ... I am trying to wear clothes that are a bit more form fitting as baggy clothes, to me, just make me look like a big blob! You know one of those days when you just feel really down and rubbish about yourself? Yeah, I'm having one of those ones. I have back problems & it has gotten sore again meaning I can't go to the gym which makes me feel loads better about myself so I'm going to have to just deal with it & accept that I have to take it easy & that I am not a blob! Everyone gets days like this, what are your ways to make yourself feel better? (Please, don't say go a run or I will actually weep!)

I am thinking about starting a 2nd blog for writing, I am a bit of an amateur story writer but just have them in a notebook. Let me know if anyone would be interested. It is nothing brilliant but I love doing it!

Happy Monday! x
