Feather & Snake Print Leggings

These are my feather and snake print leggings that I bought last week after falling in love with them! I don’t really wear leggings that much, as I am sure you have noticed, because it’s rare I can find pretty cotton ones, but after I finally came to the realization of pairing the non cotton ones over a cotton pair, I’m hooked! Gosh knows how it took me so long to figure that out though, ha ha!

I’m wearing my Topshop quilted biker jacket and cream scarf, Miss Selfridge leggings and black dress with a H&M white t-shirt over the top, my Marc by Marc Jacobs Percy bag and my KG by Kurt Geiger boots.

This is the outfit that I wore to the cinema over the weekend. I watched Haywire, which isn’t something I would usually watch, but my boyfriend wanted to see it so I didn’t mind. I actually quite liked it despite the amount of violence! Also, don’t forget to enter my Sam Edelman Petty Boots giveaway that I am running right now! I’m loving reading the entries, they are so creative!

Grey Leopard With A Hint Of Panda

I have worn my new leopard print jeans a lot over the weekend actually, my favourite way I wore them though was with this outfit! I wore them with my new jacket and a couple of other new purchases and I like how it turned out. I usually love colour, as you know, but this time I went for a monochrome look.

I’m wearing my Current/Elliott Grey Leopard jeans, a Topshop PU Leather Biker jacket, Cross necklace and Salma heels, an ASOS Long Sleeved top, a River Island Panda purse and Accessories Panda ring.

What do you think of the outfit? I’m really glad I finally bought the jeans though! Also, I have a very exciting contest coming up for you very soon! It’s one I am so happy about sharing with you all!

LOOKBOOK.nu Inspirations XIV

Here is the 14th installment of my LOOKBOOK.nu Inspiration posts. I haven’t posted one of these in a long time because I have had some other posts to do of my own, but I have been saving a tonne of outfit photos from people on LOOKBOOK.nu for a while. They end up cluttering up my desktop! These are some of my favourites over the past few months. I absolutely love the use of colour and I enjoy looking at other peoples outfits so much! It’s interesting seeing everyone’s style! You can also follow me on LOOKBOOK.nu by clicking here.

Some New Purchases


What I love most about this time of year (despite it being freezing which I definitely don’t love) is the huge sales! Literally everywhere has sales and I like to shop them a couple of weeks after they start because everything ends up even more reduced. Not all of these purchases are sale items, but a few of them were super cheap anyway or I had discount codes. I haven’t bought all of these this week though, these are purchases that I have accumulated over the past 2 months, but haven’t shared with you yet.

Above, from left to right, is my new Topshop PU leather quilted biker jacket, a Topshop white sweater/jumper, Current/Elliott grey leopard jeans, Miss Selfridge burgundy and feather print leggings, Topshop necklaces and Kurt Geiger boots.

The jacket I am absolutely in love with! The quilting on it is amazing! The jeans have been on my wish list for a good few months and I finally saved enough for them. I always had trouble with printed leggings since most of the time they are made from polyester, so what I decided to do for the feather ones is put them over the top of the cotton burgundy ones and I can’t feel a thing! So excited about that! The boots will be great for wearing with jeans and the necklaces were adorable!

What items have you been buying over the holiday sales? I literally just save all my money for clothes purposes, I only sometimes eat lunch out maybe 3 times a month and I don’t go out to parties or anything like that, so all of my money does go on clothes. It’s a pretty bad obsession! Ha ha!

The Little Details

These are some photos that I found on my computer from a couple of months ago. You can tell since the leaves are still golden, ha ha. I wore these jeans for a review, but I quite like the outfit so I thought I would post it on here. It’s just a simple look, but I love little details that make a simple outfit better, like jewellery, a slouchy belt or a printed t-shirt, it really adds that extra something.

I was wearing a Mango waistcoat tee, Current/Elliott jeans, my Topshop double finger Love ring, H&M gold bangles and River Island flat shoes.

I’m definitely missing the warmer weather that we had back when these were taken. Sure it was a little bitter out, but nothing compared to now. I’m permanently freezing with the -2 temperatures, I’ve been wearing my leopard print onesie all the time. Ha ha! How are you all coping with the weather? Also, I’ve had a few new purchases which I will be sharing with you soon!

Blue, White & Fuchsia

This is an outfit that I put together on the spur of the moment. I wanted something classic and smart, but with a big pop of colour which is why I decided on fuchsia. I couldn’t decid which bag to wear though, I was stuck between my Marc Jacobs Bruna and my new sparkly clutch I picked up in the sale at Urban Outfitters. The clutch went with my shoes more, but I know so many people love the Bruna. In the end I think I decided on the clutch being a better option. Which do you prefer?

I was wearing my Hudson Nico skinny jeans, a Topshop pink tank top and cream blazer, a Swarovski Panda necklace that my boyfriend bought me for Christmas, my Azendi Carousel ring, Adele Marie bangle, AVON beaded bracelets and my Christian Louboutin Declic heels in Cramberry.

As I was taking photos of the heels and clutch together, my adorable cat decided she wanted to be in on it, so she sat right next to them. I think she loves Louboutins too! Also, I think this clutch is actually supposed to be a laptop case, but I don’t want to use it as that, it looks much better as a purse! Ha ha.

Mulberry Spring/Summer 2012 Campaign

I don’t usually post about campaigns from brands, but I couldn’t resist posting this one! The new Spring/Summer 2012 Mulberry campaign is so cute and fun! It was shot on Brighton Pier and you can really see the inspiration behind the shoot! Classic vintage British holidays! Ice creams on the beach, sticks of rock, fish and chip newspaper… It’s adorable! I love the candy colours and how close to home the feeling of it is. It makes me smile! Not to mention I am a huge Mulberry fan! What do you think of the campaign? Do you like it too?
