Nordgreen The Unika Watch Review + Discount Code

Nordgreen Minimalist Watches Review + 15% Off As you guys know, I absolutely love watches, so when I heard about Nordgreen Watches, I was super excited to share them with you! I always take my collaborations seriously and this is a Copenhagen-based Scandinavian minimalist watch brand that offers a sustainable watch collection, so I couldn’t be happier to tell you about them! These thin watches are designed by award-winning Danish designer, Jacob Wagner (who you probably know as the world famous Bang & Olufsen designer),  honouring form and function in equal measure. Each of their watches has a different story to tell, while remaining modern classics and extremely versatile! The Nordgreen watch that I have here is the beautiful The Unika Rose Gold 28mm thin watch, with a stunning mesh strap. This one has the incredible white dial, with their simple and minimalist logo, combined with rose gold hands. The extra strap that I chose to go with it is a gorgeous brown leather, with a rose gold buckle, to complement the face. What I fell in love with on this watch the most was the unique and cool way that the strap connects to the dial. It’s a fun design that you don’t usually see on watches, and I fell in love with it for that purpose. It’s tough to add fun and quirky elements to something, while keeping its integrity and remaining a classic, but Jakob managed to do just that! It’s super lightweight as they’re known for their thin watches, and it’s very comfortable to wear. Mesh straps always offer you the ability to adjust the closure,…

2 Ways To Style White Jeans & Knitwear

2 Different White Outfits For Spring & Summer With Spring being in full swing, it makes sense to break out the white denim, doesn’t it? Summer is in one month, as it’s mid June when it’s officially Summer here in the UK, and one of the shades we always gravitate towards in the warmer weather is white! I wanted to put two different looks together here, to show you how you can transition a white pair of jeans and a white cropped knit, over the two seasons! There’s one for when it’s a little bit chilly, and one look for when it’s warmer. For the first look, I styled my Abercrombie & Fitch White Skinny Jeans and White Zara Cropped Knit with a Zara Coat that I threw over my shoulders, my Gucci GG Belt, my Alexander McQueen Oversized Sneakers, and my Louis Vuitton Mini Palm Springs Backpack. I think this combines neutrals and tans really nicely, but it’s ideal for a windy day, or a more overcast weather situation (we’re very much used to that here in England, aren’t we?!). The second look is a little more playful, so I styled my Abercrombie & Fitch White Skinny Jeans and White Zara Cropped Knit with my Jacquemus Le Chiquito Noeud Pink Bag, my Gucci GG Belt, and my Alexander McQueen Oversized Sneakers again. So as you can see, all I really did to switch this one up was remove the coat, and bring in a bright pop of pink with my choice in bag. That alone really makes it Summer appropriate because you’re injecting some vibrancy and colour into the…

Pastel Rainbow Knitwear

The Pastel Rainbow Cardigan Outfit Happy Monday everyone! I feel like this outfit is super Spring appropriate, isn’t it? I originally saw this rainbow 525 cardigan on Shopbop and thought it was really cute, but then I saw it on another fashion blogger and fell completely in love with it even more. It ended up being tricky to get hold of as the stock was sold out everywhere, but I managed to find a M and I decided to give it a try. Then an XS came back in, and an S, and I went for it! Ha ha! So I ended up with three different sizes of this cardigan! I kept the XS as it has an oversized fit and I thought this one suited me the most. Isn’t it adorable? I feel like it’s either a love or hate relationship with it though, as I’ve had a lot of compliments, as well as people saying it’s awful, but I absolutely adore it! What do you think of it? It’s so soft and comfortable as well, it’s amazing! I wore this 525 Rainbow Cardigan with my Joe’s Jeans Charlie Crop Skinny Jeans in Grey, my new Gucci Brixton Loafers in White, and finished it off with my Celine Micro Belt Bag in Clay. I think this is a really simple and casual outfit for wearing during the day time, either to lunch, doing some errands, shopping etc. and it’s definitely something that I would wear on a trip to London, if I was going there anytime soon. I did recently wear these grey jeans and the Gucci Brixton loafers…

A Leather Jacket & Ankle Boots

I can’t believe it’s almost May, the time just seems to whizz by and I feel like I’m saying that regularly, but it’s almost halfway through the year now, and that’s absolute madness! Anyway, these photos almost got away! They were shot back in the Autumn (as you can tell) as part of a collaboration with a brand, but that fell through, so I wasn’t going to share them. But as it turns out, I quite liked the outfit and the scenery together, so I thought I would share them with you anyway! I would say that three of my favourite pieces that I love to wear quite regularly are in this ensemble! That would be my Allsaints Balfern Leather Jacket, my L’AGENCE Margot Skinny Jeans in Graphite, and my Saint Laurent West Harness Wyatt Boots in Black. They’re staples that literally go with anything, and I love that kind of versatility! You saw this combination before too, in a very similar way, I just had darker black skinny jeans, and a black t-shirt, but if you missed it, check it out here. I’d love to know what some of your staples are that you wear on a regular basis? Is a leather jacket, black skinny jeans, and black boots part of them? Anyway, please do let me know what you think of this look! Lorna xx. *This post contains affiliate links to help keep this blog running.

Grey And Blue Double Denim

A Levi’s Denim Jacket With Grey Skinny Jeans Hey everyone! How are you all? I’m so happy that we are finally out of lock down and now in a more free way of living with the shops being open! Some normality again! I feel like this outfit is so me! It’s been a while since I did double denim, and it’s been even longer since I wore grey skinny jeans or a denim jacket for that matter! I love this kind of outfit and I feel so comfortable in it, as it’s been a uniform of mine for well over a decade. Most of these pieces are new too, so let me tell you about them! I was wearing my Levi’s Trucker Denim Jacket that I got a few months ago, and layered it over my Abercrombie & Fitch Tie Knot Tee in White. I think wearing a knot in the front of a t-shirt really gives it a different vibe to keeping it plain, it’s just so elevating. Then for my jeans (I recently included these in my wish list), they’re the Joe’s Jeans The Charlie Crop Jeans in Solitude and they’re incredible! They’re so stretchy and comfortable, and they’re the perfect shade of grey, so I’m obsessed with these right now! Then for my shoes, I wore my brand new Gucci Brixton Loafers in White, which again, I’m absolutely obsessed with because they’re so versatile, classy, and beyond comfortable! I will be reviewing them soon! Then I finished it off with my Saint Laurent Nano Sac de Jour Bag in Grey, to pull the shades together. Denim has…

Some Photo Outfit Updates From Instagram

For those of you that don’t follow me on Instagram, I regularly share some photos there of outfits and details, that I don’t often put on my fashion blog. I love to be able to share in the moment snaps and quick pictures, without doing a full on photo shoot that’s usually required for blog quality posts. Since these are taken with my phone, they aren’t up to my usual standard, but I do love these pics a lot and felt like I’d like to make a roundup post for you so that you don’t miss out on my social media content! As Spring is here and Summer is quickly approaching, I’ve been ordering some new denim shorts, cropped tops, bikinis, and t-shirts, so that I’m all set for comfortable wear! I’m seriously hoping I will be able to go to the pool or beach this Summer too, since last year was a bust for everyone! My fingers are tightly crossed that I will be in the United States for the warmer months, so I’m planning on packing some of these pieces in my luggage! I’m also looking forward to getting my hair done next month! The 12th April is just a few days away and I cannot wait to get some normality back in my life! How are all of you? I hope you’re cheering up and looking to the brighter days ahead! Lorna xx.

Snake Print Leather Skirt With Thigh High Boots

Snake Print Leather Skirt With Thigh High Boots Happy Weekend everyone! The story behind this outfit is an interesting one, ha ha! I put this look together a few months ago (maybe 4-5) and I took it with me on a previous shoot, so that I could take pics of it, but unfortunately never got around to it as other looks took precedence. I then took it with me a second time, and the same thing happened! So third time lucky, my mum and I actually got to shoot this outfit a few weeks ago, finally! So here it is! And as it turns out, I love it! I think it might be one of my favourite looks that I’ve put together in recent years! For this look, I had on my Allsaints Lena Oba Leather Snakeprint Skirt, which I tucked my 525 Beige Roll Neck Top into. I layered my Zara Oatmeal Coat over the top of my shoulders, pulled my DUO Empress Over The Knee Boots on, and finished it off with my Louis Vuitton Mini Palm Springs Backpack. This skirt is actually one of my favourites as I love the snakeprint on it! Sometimes this kind of print can come across as trashy, but Allsaints did a fantastic job of keeping it classy! I also think that mixing it with neutrals, different fabrics, and proportions, is a key way to keeping it styled and chic. It’s in the sale currently, and does run a little bit big in terms of sizing. I would love your opinion on this outfit too! What do you think? Lorna xx. *This…

Leather Leggings With A Corset Belt

Leather Leggings With A White Shirt And Corset Belt Happy Saturday! These photos were shot a few weeks ago when the first sign of Spring was starting to hit! It was pretty chilly, but there was some beautiful sunshine hitting, which made a change! I honestly can’t believe how fast the time is going though! Can you? It’s already past mid March, the clocks go forward next weekend, and it will soon be Summer! Can you believe it? Everything has been a blur for the last year, it’s madness. Anyway, for this outfit, I wanted to mix it up a bit and do something different. I actually put this together on a whim and wasn’t expecting it to look this cool, so I really like how it turned out! I was wearing my Commando Faux Leather Leggings (they’re so flattering and comfortable, they’re my favourite leggings) with my Oversized Zara White Shirt. Since this shirt is really loose, I used my Pretty Little Thing Corset Belt to pull the waist together and create the hourglass shape. I then finished it off with my Christian Louboutin Pigalle 100 Heels, and my Chanel Wallet On Chain Bag in Black. Black and white always makes a statement when it comes to outfits, and I think this look here proves that. It mixes fashionable and classy together, in a fun, but sophisticated way. I’m keeping this post short and sweet, focused mostly on the outfit, so what’s your opinion on this outfit? I’d love to know! Lorna xx. P.S. – Check out my slow motion video of this outfit by clicking here. *This post…
