Through The Stained Glass Window

(Jeans – Exact, Jumper – Exact, Hood – Similar, Shoes – Similar) I got this jumper/sweater back in November from She Inside and I never got the chance to wear it. It’s really beautiful and I actually saw it on another blogger previously to me owning it. It’s literally covered in a stained glass window print and I think it’s really unique and inventive. I’ve always admired how beautiful stained glass windows were, so to wear one on myself is a wonderful thing! I paired the jumper with my Frankie B. Faux Leather Patch Skinny Jeans, my Topshop Gabbi Heels in Black with Silver Toe Caps and my new(ish) Black Faux Fur Hood from Monki. I had been looking around for a faux fur hood for quite some time and I finally found this one, very much like the one I saw on X Factor in a backpack of one of the contestants. It keeps my head so warm and it keeps the wind out of my face and hair, which is always a bonus! It can be quite overpowering and I think next time I wear it it will be with an all black coat or jumper instead of a printed one. On another note though, I would love for you to check out my eBay store! I’ve sold about 10 things already, but I still have 56 items of clothing for sale and it varies in brands from Paige, Current/Elliott, Hudson and 7 For All Mankind to Firetrap, Levi’s and more!

Green & Blue Check With Black Leather Patches

(Jeans – Exact, Jacket – Exact, Shirt – Similar, Shoes – Similar, Bag – Exact, Rings – Exact) I wore this outfit a couple of weeks ago around Christmas time and I hadn’t got around to posting it yet. I felt like wearing something a little more tough and edgy which is why I chose my Frankie B. Destroyed Leather Patch Skinny Jeans in Black Fade. These are absolutely amazing and I adore them! They have a faded and washed black shade to them and underneath the rips at the knees there are faux leather patches. I think this is what really gives them an edge and makes them so cool! Not to mention I adore how these fit, I’ve always been a fan of the way Daniella makes her jeans! They are incredibly flattering! To keep with the theme of leather, I wore my French Connection Athena Faux Leather Biker Jacket with this outfit. I think it matches the jeans quite well and it’s one of my favourite leather style jackets due to the way it fits me. To bring some colour to the look, I wore my Topshop Green/Blue Checked Shirt underneath (to purposely stay away from burgundy) and then wore my Cambridge Satchel 11″ Bag in Wine Matte which is exclusive to ASOS only. This is actually my favourite Cambridge Satchel and I do own three of them, but the colour on this one is gorgeous! And to think, I was going to send it back initially too! For my shoes, I chose my Topshop Salma Black Platform Heels to go with this look as I know…

The Skinny Denim Dungarees Day

(Overalls – Exact, Cardigan – Similar, Shoes – Exact, Watch – Exact, Bag – Similar) You may remember my G-Star denim overalls dungarees that I wore two months ago, but I also have these Frankie B. denim overalls to add to my little collection. These are more of a dark blue wash and fit a lot more skinnier than the other ones, so I find these easier to wear with cardigans. The dark blue is quite rich on these so I thought it would be best paired with my favourite shade, burgundy, and then adding neutrals, like my shoes and bag, to the mix. We found these yellow steps when we were wandering around and I thought it would be the perfect setting for the photos! The yellow really pops against the burgundy and blue and makes everything stand out, which I love! It just looks so much more colourful than a plain background would in my opinion. I was wearing my Frankie B. Denim Overalls/Dungarees, my Sparkle & Fade Burgundy Cardigan, my Crochet TOMS, my Daniel Wellington Purple Watch, my Swarovski Crystal Purple and Blue Ring and my Mulberry Mini Taylor in Deer Brown. This is actually my second time wearing overalls (well, since I was a child anyway) and I quite like them. Sometimes they can be a little uncomfortable when you sit down, but these are really stretchy so they are nice to wear. Plus I like them skinny, I’m not really into the baggy dungarees look from the 90’s. I did wear this outfit out, I wore it to town where my boyfriend and I went…

Bristol Fashion Week SS13 Bloggers Event

On Friday I was invited to Bristol Fashion Week for their Spring/Summer 2013 collection and fashion bloggers event. This was my third time attending BFW and I have to say it was also my favourite! The ending with Gangnam Style and some of the pretty outfits were perfect! I loved the florals and neon trends the most though and BFW is always so much fun! The models are also dancers so the runway show is very entertaining, you never once get bored! Andrew Barton and Mark Heyes are also the perfect hosts! They are hilarious and just know how to put on a great show! This time around I got to meet some more bloggers and stay longer at the mall to chat with some of them and have some food. I am glad I got to meet my friend Tara again as we chat often via social media and email, she’s so sweet! I have included lots of photos in this post of the show, some of the other bloggers and of course, my outfit! I was wearing my Frankie B. Galaxy Jeans, my Zara Black Top and Navy Blazer, my KG by Kurt Geiger Winona Booties and my Forever 21 Bag. Some of these images are from Bonnie Rose as she makes great collages, she even did this wonderful feature on me which you can see here and some are from Vicki Louise, she has great editing skills and you can see her post here. The others are my own and a few of the official shots are from The Mall at Cribbs Causeway where Bristol Fashion Week…

Galaxy Print Jeans & Faux Leather Peplum

(Jeans – Exact, Top – Similar, Blazer – Exact, Bag – Similar, Shoes – Similar, Necklace – Exact, Watch – Exact, Bracelets – Similar) This is an outfit I put together over the weekend and one that I fell in love with. When I received these jeans I was in awe of them because of how gorgeous they are! Those of you who follow my blog regularly will know how obsessed with galaxy print I am and these are the most beautiful galaxy jeans I have ever seen! I’m wearing Frankie B. BFF Galaxy Jeans, a Topshop Black Blazer and Black Salma Heels, a Zara Faux Leather Peplum Top, my Mulberry Alexa Clutch in Loopy Leopard Denim, my Marc by Marc Jacobs Rose Gold Blade Chrono Watch, my Baccarat French Crystal Raindrop Necklace and Bracelets/Rings from ASOS, Topshop and Sphere of Life. I thought pairing them with black was the best option which is why I chose my faux leather peplum and a blazer. I thought the colours in the clutch complimented the jeans as well and my gorgeous necklace that my boyfriend bought me for Christmas just finished it off nicely I think. I really like how it turned out and it might actually be one of my favourites! Do you like it?

I recently got these really cute cargo pants from Daniella at Frankie B. and I love them! I’ve really been a fan of the skinny cargo trend that’s taken over the world right now.

The pockets are really flattering and Daniella always makes great jeans! I have now gained quite a collection of cargo’s actually, they are all so soft and comfortable! I’m wearing Frankie B. skinny cargo pants, River Island white tank top, Topshop Whiskey T-Bar wedges in tan, Miss Selfridge floral cardigan, New Look beaded drop necklace and Oasis beaded bracelets.
